Are you kidding? There’s a whole “YOU CAN’T TELL ME WHAT TO DO” segment of the US population that cries until they die of dehydration every time the government says “regulation” three times in a mirror.

I have unhealthy urges due to acute anxiety. If untreated, it can absolutely mean I’m behaving in ways that harm me and those around me. Since I care about others and my own well-being, I go to therapy and take medication.

I don’t like it when mentally ill adults*, who don’t care enough to pursue treatment, get let off the hook. He knows that he’s trading these kids’ futures for his own gratification and he doesn’t care. Not all PDFs are like this–but this motherfucker is and therefore gets no sympathy from me.

*This doesn’t include people who have illness, delusions, or lack of resources, preventing them from getting regular treatment.

littlewonder ,

I don’t see our views as conflicting. Not sure why you see it that way.

littlewonder ,

Ok, I thought I covered things like schizophrenia, where people can’t always manage their treatment due to the nature of the disorder, when I listed illness, but I can see how that’d get missed.

And you’re right, I neglected to highlight the stigma of pursuing help for pedophilia. I guess I’m being idealist about the ethics of therapists and when they disclose or report.

PSA: Stock Android phones, since… maybe Android 12.x or so(?), have a Lockdown mode in the power button shortcut menu that disables bio unlocks and forces pin or password.

I know it’s a platitude, and so does everyone else, but it’s important when you think about what it means when there is no apology or acknowledgement of harm done.

It’s a good first step, that hopefully leads to more, but at least stops gaslighting everyone’s reality.

littlewonder ,

As long as they add Doom as well.

littlewonder ,

Yes, let’s all give up on labor rights if at any point the only reasonable option is to buy from a corporation.

You might want to familiarize yourself with the concept of whataboutism so you can at least make logical arguments on your hot takes.

It’s wild to me considering organizations are more aware of web accessibility than ever.

littlewonder ,

Small Richard energy

littlewonder ,

Also, the BuzzKill app does this and it’s beautiful with Material design.

littlewonder ,

Or you can minmax your hotdog burps and chug hot ham water instead.

littlewonder ,

Nah, let’s ban anything that doesn’t include maximum animal suffering.

But if they don’t bring veganism into this, how else will I aggressively express how much I love meat and write five paragraphs about how unbothered I am about other people not eating a thing I eat???

littlewonder ,

That feels like a $1 inheritance. Was the hospital trying to get the worst PR angle possible?

littlewonder ,

I wonder if this will affect other states pulling similar garbage.

littlewonder ,

You should look up info about phone payments and temp card numbers in order to reduce some of your fears. Also, check out what is actually stored in epay apps when there’s a connection through a provider, like a bank integration or an integration to another epay partner.

PCI security is about as high as you’d expect from companies that tell consumers they won’t lose their own money to fraud. When it’s the bank’s money, you’d better believe they care.

There are far easier ways to get someone’s money and this ain’t it.

littlewonder ,

You usually have to opt-in to NFC payments without an unlock or confirmation. Actually, I’ve never heard of that as a default setting.

littlewonder ,

Really the physical wallet. Or maybe that’s a basket full of baskets lol

littlewonder ,

My go-to comment for every Musk headline never fails:

k.

littlewonder ,

Pretty sure actual surveillance organizations don’t need a known Android service to locate you and track what you’re doing.

littlewonder ,

The BuzzKill app is amazing for this, imo.

littlewonder ,

I immediately thought of Steve Jobs.

littlewonder ,

Woah, that’s expensive AF. I think forming an LLC in my state is like $25 and then nothing except tax burdens on revenue.

1,000 Harvard Students Walk Out of Commencement to Support 13 Seniors Barred from Graduation over Gaza (www.democracynow.org)

More than a thousand Harvard students walked out of their commencement ceremony yesterday to support 13 undergraduates who were barred from graduating after they participated in the Gaza solidarity encampment in Harvard Yard....

Yes, so fucking stupid. I was looking for a way to report it as not a kids video but there weren’t any options that didn’t also flag it as something inappropriate.

littlewonder ,

Autistic kid dream job.

littlewonder ,

It feels like driving these people into the dark corners of the internet is worse than allowing them to collect in clearnet spaces where drawn csam is allowed.

littlewonder ,

I wonder if religiosity is correlated.

littlewonder , (edited )

There’s a difference between that and policies that discourage breeding, etc.

I don’t see many people advocating to outright kill dogs. There are a ton of pits in every shelter and yet people still run backyard breeding operations or tell everyone to get a pit. The breed would be better served if we told people they were more of an advanced breed that need the right kind of owners and environment.

littlewonder ,

Just one nitpick – usually one can swap out batteries and continue to use the tool.

littlewonder ,

And other states give them public money 🫠

littlewonder ,

Yes, it all fills me with rage as well.

For more context, active duty soldiers have to do extra paperwork when traveling to other countries on personal time. Even Canada.

Part of the reason for this is to stop soldiers from being stupid. Like this guy.

littlewonder ,

I’ve been making an effort to use “happy to help” at work, instead of “no problem” because I was also informed it’s a generational thing.

Those movies are so great. Probably stick with the G and PG options if there’s a young kid in the mix (thinking of Princess Mononoke, which is PG-13, IIRC). The PG ones often have just the right amount of “safe-scary” elements that it absolutely grabs their attention. Great movies for grown-up/kid conversation-starters to boot, just due to the deep, rich, human themes they explore.

littlewonder ,

This reminds me of one definition of art: that it creates an emotion or reaction in the viewer.

Not that this movie in particular is art lol. Feels like a fetish film, if anything.

littlewonder , (edited )

Hell, I’m always down to watch Incredibles just for the soundtrack and Edna Mode.

Aren’t those tomato meter scores the aggregate of critic reviews? On cult classics, low-brow, or franchises with baggage, the user reviews are way more likely to match the vibe of a movie.

Funnily enough, it’s almost the complete opposite for independent movies made for “film people”. Or plots that require critical thinking or deep attention (the latter is my own Achilles’ heel)–where the user score is garbage, but the critic score (and thus, the tomato meter) is more likely to match your own (if you’re into movies like that).

littlewonder , (edited )

I love finding those excellent movies that have somehow floated just below the surface of the consciousness of my sphere of community.

littlewonder , (edited )

Yes, no one should be watching this without the shenanigans. You need to be in a certain silly, horny mood with some added alcohol if you’re still too cool for school, and a group of others who feel the same and have memorized the callbacks.

littlewonder ,

I’m open to trying this after reading your explanation. The Lego Movie was also surprisingly amazing.

littlewonder ,

For me, I could watch Muppet Treasure Island over and over. The perfect movie.

For a movie I need to play for others: A Goofy Movie.

The EPA is again allowing summer sales of higher ethanol gasoline blend, citing global conflicts | AP News (apnews.com)

OMAHA, Neb. (AP) — The Environmental Protection Agency cleared the way Friday for a higher blend of ethanol to be sold nationwide for the third summer in a row, citing global conflicts that it says are putting pressure on the world’s fuel supply....

As someone from the flyover states, the subsidies and the monstrous amount of lobbying done by the ag industry are exhausting, but are the majority of the reason behind why the information you’re seeing seems sketchy. Take any pro-e85 argument with that in mind.

Also, as a side note, you don’t need to be perfect to have an opinion :) Your disclaimer is about basic research literacy so don’t fear adding to a discussion because someone might engage in bad faith. And yes, I am projecting my own anxiety onto my perception of your statement, lol.

littlewonder ,

I just got flashbacks to a 2000 caravan I had that had a special label prompting that it could handle e85. Man, that car suuuucked.

littlewonder ,

Regarding freedom of speech, banning TikTok is not the government oppressing your rights to say things.

littlewonder ,

Dude, put content warnings on this. I have trauma from shared drives and fucking Jared leaving the Important File open on his locked computer while he takes off for a week, locking out access to anyone else.

littlewonder ,

Don’t forget suicide.
