California-legislation Memes

Someone modded a benchmarking tool to require age verification with two delightfully dystopian options: either upload a video of your face so their "facial estimation AI" can guess your age, or submit government ID proving you're old enough to... run MemTest86. Because nothing says "I need to check my RAM" quite like surrendering your driver's license to a hardware diagnostic utility. The real kicker? The options are labeled "(S)tart" and "E(x)it" like it's some kind of legitimate system prompt. Pretty sure California didn't pass legislation requiring you to be 18+ to stress test your CPU, but here we are. Just another Tuesday in software hell where even your BIOS-level tools want to know your birthday.
