This “Amazon’s Choice” is actually really valid, I’ve had mine for a few years and they perform great

TBH I kinda agree with the states here… I started watching porn waaayyyy too early and it’s fucking me up… without a doubt… I shouldn’t have seen all the things I looked for and now I gotta put up with it.

But I also agree with PornHubs decision. There is no way to verify age without exposing your identity. There isn’t even a way to trust a 3rd party to verify someone’s age.

There really isn’t a middle ground, the only way to protect kinds (like little me) is to block the porn. But websites go on and offline every few minutes, VPNs and Tor are free and hard to blacklist.

How do we censor internet porn?? ¯⁠\⁠(⁠°⁠_⁠o⁠)⁠/⁠¯

I mean if it’s just a private server for just the people he knows then I don’t get why this would be a concern, but if it is to mitigate family drama then rocket chat definitely has end-to-end encryption https://docs.rocket.chat/use-rocket.chat/workspace-administration/settings/e2e-encryption

Rocket chat is like slack but FOSS… haven’t tried it myself but it could be something

How expensive can “reputable” be. I got danhab99.xyz for like ¯⁠\⁠(⁠°⁠_⁠o⁠)⁠/⁠¯ $20/year?? Who cares

I wish they’d just open-source it. It’ll keep falling off while they own it.

Now consider that you remember it. You don’t need to check, you remember the things that made that memory funny.

I’m only 25 and it feels like so many of the things I have are just memories. It feels like my life is slowly coming to a close and I don’t know if the future is even there.

And you know what the worst part is? I don’t really remember much anyways.

My 20 year old cat died and all I can do is remember him and look at pictures. I don’t want to have to remember things just to keep them… I’m just not reliable enough.

It will be like reddit for a bit, then new instances will spin up and we’ll still have the choice the fedeiverse offers

You forgot to declare custom primitive types. You cannot create a bool you gotta declare a DoubleYouDoubleYouDoubleYouDotLemmyGradDotML_Bool

Wait isn’t that exactly what a mortgage is?

So (feelings opinions)

It sounds like owners are taking on a whole lot of risk just so the banks don’t. If that’s the case then is the equity actually good enough to merit me being the banks money armor?

And 80% agree with the equity argument, I just can’t help not have hope for the future and am literally asking who is gonna buy my house in 40 years? Less kids are being born, this country is falling into Republican hands so can’t rely on selling my house to immigrants now can I?

I feel like Americans have known why we’re here for so long and now this generation doesn’t. I can’t tell if it’s for a reason someone is keeping secret or if the answer doesn’t exist bc we’re not supposed to be here anymore.

Literally why is this necessary on a technical level. I’m a web developer, whenever I need my JavaScript to access a resource I have to spell out where to find it. I’ve never had a need to scan the browser or the system to make shit happen so why should I be able to in the first place.

They’re saying they’re not gonna just hand it over. Ring is still gonna have to answer subpoenas.

The whole point of side loading apps is to not need the app store. One of the most important features of an app store is to distribute and update apps. Storage and bandwidth isn’t free, but it is quite cheap.

I’m sorry if it hurts apples feelings when we tell them they’re not allowed to charge for every aspect of their hardware. But if they didn’t want us to own our iPhones then they shouldn’t have sold them.

Anybody who disrupts capitalism should be punished. We’ve done it before and we gotta do it again.

The whole point of capitalism is self determination. Not to dominate the world, we’re not anarchists. But these criminals are pulling massive amounts of money out of the economy and that’s not acceptable.

Most Linux package managers sync the list of all packages they can download. I wonder if some sort of system like that can be used to federate web searching.

Posts tend to die within a day. What would be the point, reddit posts aren’t worth restoring.

If that employee is producing double because of technology than that’s all the employer deserves to ask for. If the employer wants the employee to double their efforts the employee will 4x their output which is an unreasonable thing to ask for, and those bosses loose people because of that. I don’t give much attention to people who fail upwards.

there is a small subset of outwardly powerful humans who deeply suck

Yeah the deep shadowy cabal of suited white men pulling strings. I’ve heard of that and I disagree with it. I don’t think it exists. Maybe there are some big people who basically own their industry, but I refuse to accept that they exist outside of the media and insurance sphere. Media has no power unless government reinforces it, and we regulate the shit out of insurance companies. Now that’s not to say that we don’t regulate insurance enough, there’s plenty more control we the people can and need to take. Maybe there’s one or two other industries that are owned by a powerful person. But I refuse to believe that my government that I pay tax to, vote on, and listen to is too weak to snuff out a company that grows to the size of a government. FAANG is 10% as powerful as the US Federal government and I refuse to accept that it’s more.

We’ve seen our government repeatedly stomp out monopolies in the US and outside of it. There are plenty more to stomp out, but just because it hasn’t been done yet doesn’t discount the strength of us Americans projected by our government. We can change, and its hard.
