Let’s take a bite out of crime

I’d like to see what study you based your argument on, because I’ve done enough reading that what you’re saying doesn’t ring any bells. I’m an atheist and as mentioned previously worked in the porn industry for several years.

I am one of the few Ubuntu gamers. Please don’t hurt me.

I’m not an expert on the topic and don’t claim to be. I only first learned about it by watching a youtube series by Terry Crews called “Dirty Little Secret” where he admits he had this problem and how it affected his marriage.

Levels.fyi is a good source of salary data. Above 200k is easy in the right geographic location.

I wholeheartedly agree with you. I did not say whether it should be banned or made difficult to find - I was pointing out the evidence that is out there that it is a problem for some people.

I worked in the porn industry for almost a decade. I see no moral issues with it, but there is growing evidence that porn addiction is a problem for many.

Please look over yourbrainonporn.com.

There is plenty of evidence that some people struggle with compulsory sex disorder. Porn addiction can lead to erectile dysfunction. Many on the internet won’t admit it and will down vote any discussion of the topic for some reason.

Reframing is important

You’re right! We aren’t there yet. Every time this happens we roll the dice on whether the required mutations occur for it to go H2H, though.

Depends where you shop and where they source them from. Once that source gets hit and they have to cull their entire flock, you’ll see the price increase.

Yes, if it is a tax on speculation, investments, and gambling. I can get behind it being a trickle down system that the wealthy can’t opt out of.

I personally really dislike new reddit and the Photon theme. I’d say no to any change to my main instance.

People proudly announce it on LinkedIn

I was really psyched about AI when it first hit my news feed. Now I’m less than impressed. Most generalist AI platforms get things wrong constantly. Having an LLM trained on specific things, like math or science or maybe law, I could see being useful.

We’re at the “AI everything” phase instead of the “AI what makes sense” phase.

Tell me you don’t understand a first past the post voting system without telling me.

For real though, you sound like an idealist, a perfectionist, who lets good be the enemy of perfect. I don’t think you actually want a conversation - you want others to hear your voice and opinion.

Papers Please

100% I do not want anything to do with .ml

They could just setup auto moderator rules to bury all new posts

We don’t grow our crops in a desert. They grow in very specific regions of the world, often in areas that are suitable due to natural formations and easily obtainable water. Most of Canada is forested land that is uninhabited with no infrastructure such as roads, running water, or electricity - not to mention there has never been a large agricultural presence in those areas, so it would have to be started from scratch, if it is possible at all.

When you say we’ll huddle around the proverbial fires, it might be a very small human population. Our civilization (likely including both of us) probably won’t be around at that point.
