they're right, we should just make it so you have to verify ID in the bios

@Hyperhidrosis I looked it up, Linux already has a birthday on accounts and a way to query it. Linux is already compliant as long as distributions offer a way to enter the birthday, which nobody currently requires.
@Hyperhidrosis@shitposter.world @sun@shitposter.world
you are missing the API verification part
@verita84 @Hyperhidrosis it mandates that applications can query the current user age from how it was configured. On Linux that is already possible. The bill doesn't mandate using any off-machine API or any verification of any kind
@sun@shitposter.world @Hyperhidrosis@shitposter.world
Lunduke got it wrong then
@verita84 @Hyperhidrosis here's the bill:

I read the entire thing

"1798.502. (a) With respect to a device for which account setup was completed before January 1, 2027, an operating system provider shall, before July 1, 2027, provide an accessible interface that allows an account holder to indicate the birth date, age, or both, of the user of that device for the purpose of providing a signal regarding the user’s age bracket to applications available in a covered application store.
"
@verita84 @Hyperhidrosis @grok again: that is an API for a program to query the operating system for the birthdate you set up. Not querying an age verification service somewhere else
