I haven’t read any of this research because, like, the only feelings I have about pedophiles are outright contempt and a small amount of pity for the whole fucking destructive evilness of it all, but I’ve been told having access to drawings and images and whatnot makes people more likely to act on their impulses.

And like. I don’t think images of CSAM in any form, no matter how far removed they are from real people, actually contribute anything worthwhile st all yo the world, so like. I dunno.

Really couldn’t give two squirts of piss of about anything that makes a pedophiles life harder. Human garbage.

Didn’t use the spp.

It would definitely make sense that they’d ban accounts based n IMEI or something but that isn’t what happened with Mr.

Happy to share google drive link to you priv1ately if you’d like.

I opened my smart TV and removed the Bluetooth/WiFi PCI card that was inside it.

Good fucking luck connecting to something you privacy invading piece of shit.

We already do.

Its stupid easy, in fact.

Like. Total time of actual configuration for replacing all the faces and voices in the Empire Strikes back with my face and my voice was like 3 hours.

Don’t use it. Never have.

The issue that where you could once go and see people that did it just because they wanted to its now mixed in with / overpowered by by people that want to make money.

No one is arguing anyone is entitled to anyone else’s naked body. But I don’t think there is anything wrong with having a preference for wanting to see people who are naked because they want to be, and not because they want to earn money.

Not to mention all the evil / sexual exploitation that comes up once money is in the equation.

I think they’re either using google data to link email accounts to phone numbers or using an NLP model to identify users by how they write in the vans.

I hot banned on accounts tied to email addresses I haven’t used in years, logged in from a vpn. Like. 5 email addresses. Many accounts on the email addresses hadn’t been used in years. The only things linking them were a phone number I used for 2fa on google.

I pirate everything. Because fuck you that’s why.

You’re not from America are you?

I ask this because you seem to actually grasp what’s happening.

Hot NBCs in your area want to FUCK.

I’m of two minds about this.

Like. If you’re present in another country on a student Vida you’re essentially a guest and a certain level of respect, and gratitude, I feel, is important for that privilege. Even if the right to protest is guaranteed for that country’s citizens you are not citizens.

That being said I think our shared duty to do the right thing should bear more weight than any sense of obligation or hospitality.

Given the long dick of the US, rising racist sentiment, and the personal risk it takes to put yourself on the line for a greater cause, I think protesting is probably the right thing even if it is kind of rude.

For better or worse activism can be a big part of campus life and I don’t think a culture of fear is conducive to a healthy academic sphere.

When I was in uni I was constantly dodging massive protests / counter protests from Israelis / Palestinians, having lectures interrupted. It annoyed the hell out of me at the time but in hindsight I’m grateful to have lived in a place where people could fight for their views, even if they supported Israel and were stupid dipshits.

Fucking chodes

I pirate literally everything.

I used yt-dlp and downloaded a shitload of old commercials once and I stick then in a random playlist to get the full TV effect. Never know what’ll be on.

From the bottom of my heart, to everyone involved in the production of any kind of media: I hope you fall face into a fifty deep wishing well full of human shit and erect dicks.

Pm me if you feel like ripping your hair out and putting a whole in the wall with your face. Which I often did. I can try and help. Though there are probably better options

Is there a place to put comments like this? Some kind of “how to lose an argument” community?

If you disagree with the numbers you can argue them coherently. Like, that’s how facts work. If there are issues with the data you make a compelling argument by pointing them out. Data doesn’t give a fuck about your feelings, refusing to contribute meaningfully to the argument doesn’t make you superior, it makes you look like an idiot, and doubling down on your refusal to engage meaningfully with the content makes you look even dumber.

You have time to hand wave away shit you don’t agree with but don’t have time to make.a cogent argument? You’re too good for.it.all when you’re called out for it? Is it maybe because.you don’t understand economics?

Because I sure as fuck don’t. But I do understand that its a real academic.discipline that involves lots of real math that I also.don’t understand. And while I take most.of what I read on the internet with a grain of salt people in this thread that do appear to understand some of those things are indicating this Dara is likely correct. And those arguing that it isnt don’t appear to be able to articulate why.

So my own conclusion is that there’s probably.something to this. But it doesnt really matter if there is or isnt, really, because I’ll never do anything with the info. Still, I choose to see this as a glimmer of.hope in troubling times.

Although if you are able to articulate your “all economics.is bullshit” theory, I’m pretty sure the many many doctorate holders in economics would love to have you destroy their field of study. You could usher in a revolution in economics. You could create whole new academic.disciplines, and do to.economics.what the scientific method did to natural.philosophy. In that case, don’t you have an intellectual duty to lay out.your argument?

Unless of course its just hand waving bullshit.

They’re the same thing.

Get he out lest he be ready to drop to your knees and gibe praise to the righteous AUR as it doth demand.

My old PC.

Its on proxmox but I’ve got an i7 8600k 18tb hard drive for frigate / nas, rtx2080ti because where else am I going to put it. 32gb ram. 1000 watt PSU.

Dude I wish. I’d love to be able to point you in the right direction but getting this all working for me was just the product.of determination and posts / videos from all over the place.

I can tell you that adding proxmox to the equation made things way more complicated. And that vlans are not intuitive.

My advice would be to just kind of go for it. I ended up needing a smart switch, a mul5i nic pace card, a regular switch, and two access points (you could get a vlan aware access point but I couldn’t find anything that made sense price wise).

The whole thing took days to set up. I frequently didn’t know why things weren’t working. It sucked.

You can pm me if you get stuck and I can try to give you a hand buy the frustrating truth I learned about the process was that I was kind of on my own since every set up is kind of unique based on your hardware.

I’m glad its done but doing it frankly sucked…
