they always say "family friendly" like queer people and sex workers don't have families. if you don't mean ALL families then maybe specify WHICH ONES so that we know right away what to do with your trash opinions
There are too many beautiful people.....
I find any small subculture and in it I find more and more people getting excited about the things they love, all with wonderful thoughts on things I haven't seen, all cool as shit who is love to know...
Life is constantly overwhelmingly beautiful
I know the world is horrifying and bad and I know what you love is being rotted away by capital but you can still find someone online who knows too much about obscure ps2 games or bad italian movies or weird cars games and meet them and realize they are a beautiful human being
This is why I'm a communist more then anything because I want to believe in a world where we put supporting our fellow man at the forefront of everything, because have you ever met your fellow man? U ever talk to him about anime? U ever get her to transition and be ur fellow woman? She rules
(annoyingly qt creator does run on macos its just not supported in nixpkgs)
Once more, for the people who missed my previous rants on the topic: It's okay to adopt the stance that age verification is a bad idea.
You don't need to weaken your position by saying it might be okay if they eventually used Zero-Knowledge Proofs or pseudonymous systems.
First, such schemes aren't suitable for this domain even at a theoretical level. If you think they might then you don't understand the problem.
Second, even if ZKP was an applicable solution, it would still prevent undocumented people from accessing the internet like those that various governments choose to recognize as human.
Third, one goal of a functioning society ought to be producing responsible adults, and treating them as complete children until they suddenly turn 18 is not a reasonable way to accomplish that.
Government-mandated age verification for the internet is bad public policy, and it's 100% okay to say as much.

Puffin looking over the cliff at the horizon, she seem lost in thought as the grey clouds are rolling in the sky maybe announcing an incoming storm.

Sometime it feel nice to take a moment to enjoy the breeze and musicality of nature around, the little trickle of a stream in the forest , the tree leaves rustling and the numerous birds chirping around.

Oh my god, these are real, actual slides from a SoftBank presentation. Pulitzer-worthy

I keep trying to explain to my friends in the US that there are places where strangers are generally kind to each other, and I feel like the first fish to leave the ocean coming back to tell its friends about the stars.
It's not that US Americans are cruel people on a personal level. It's more like... there's something wrong about the place, like it squeezes the trust and caring for strangers out of people. You can get it back, but it's a fight.
People in the US are so scared of each other, and it's been like that my whole life.
I want the US to heal. I want the people, the politics, and the culture to get better. But I'm not going back.
I'll give the revived Commodore brand one thing, at least they're true to the original company by making really questionable business decisions :)
Gay men kissing isn’t some kind of graphic pornography that children shouldn’t be shown or something. Fuck that shit. I hate how mainstream social media has backslid into homophobia and everybody thinks it’s normal for some fucking reason
