Maybe you could play yourself and get him interested that way? If my pops would have come with some weird stuff from his childhood i would also have been mildly uninterested.

Mushrooms are awesome and delicious. Foraging them is awesome too if you know your shit. Which i do not, so i buy mushrooms.

Yeah i have heard about crypto being used to get cheaper medication, but i had forgotten, so thanks for taking your time and sharing this example.

I wish you the best health possible, better and cheaper medications and people that make your life better

I think this is actually a very good example, thank you.

People from europe sometimes come a long as assholes (“wE aRe NoT iN tHe ShItTy UsA”) while ignoring that political stability is not guaranteed. Neither is democracy. Sitting here germany i look very nervously at the many countries shifting to the right and getting more authoritarian.

I pray to all gods that the times we live in wont be very interesting for historians to come…

This thread is a dumpster fire. Can someone explain to me why i should be concerned about the tracking of payments that as an average person will not happen outside of buying huge stuff like a car? While no one is forced to answer me i would like you to refrain from vague statements like “this is attacking your privacy”, because i am interested in how. If you think its obvious feel free to ignore.

I think the biggest point that i could see being a problem is the crypto stuff because i once made a anonymous donation via monero (that because i was concerned but the target needed privacy). It was about 30€ or something. Would that be illegal under the new guidelines? And if so, why would i care, since it is supposed to be anonymous.

This is what a lot of power does to humans, it corrupts, makes one view those with less power as less of a human being. There shouldnt be any absurdly powerful people.

I mean i am sure that rich people get away with lots of stuff that normal people wont. But this whole “pedophile elite” thing smells very similar to the “elite jews control everything” and is simplistic bs at best. I am not even sure what people are on about. I would be happy if we finally fought for more equality and better distrubution of wealth but that seems “too simple” to most or something.

“What about the people on epsteins list” is gotta be the most generic strawman.

Pretty much sums up how i feel right now

Ohh man that one must hurt

Also a good bed fucking rocks like nothing else. I absolutely love my bed. This is the one place where you spend most of your life so it should be the best place in your home, cant change my mind.

Could you link some sources that show how there is a large group of powerful pedophiles? Because for this to be true pedophiles are really not getting any benefits at all which is odd if you ask me. Of course there would be some powerful pedophiles on a planet with 8.000.000.000 People. There also powerful rapists, murderers, holocaust deniers (or is that a hoax too in your opinion), racists etc.

Like i give a fuck what cools best. I want my system to look awesome and the AIO sure looks better imo. At the end of the day: build the PC that makes you happy.

Defederating over claims without evidence just makes you an asshole. Way to go lemmy.ml

Very relatable.

I feel like these two are additive. A script could present a vulnerability without being an ad (and thus be on the blocking list on adblock) could it not? So feel like to accept the least amount of scripts is the way to go. However i understand the annoyance because sometimes i just want to visit a page without going through every single one of the many scripts. What i have started doing is to use a different browser from my default one if this situation arises. This browser is only having adblock as addons so when a page does not work and i dont want to fiddle with the setting i just visit via the other browser. Not an ideal solution, i know, but i think its better than getting rid of NoScript.

I would love to hear better solutions though because i admit i am not an expert in anything.

I understand the sentiment and i hope that you will only make pleasant acquaintances. Mainly people are paranoid because of stories they have heard and red and i get it. It is quite hard to judge how real the threat of doxxing is (as in what are the chances it will happen to oneself). Having said that, i hope you keep your optimistic, open and welcoming spirit. We could use more of that in this world.

Now hear me out: Get yourself a dakimakura. With depression you will spend more time in bed than you like anyways and this way you alteast got something nice and plush to cuddle with in bed. It sounds bad but it feels good, believe me. If you feel like seeing people again but are embaressed you can always hide it in the closet. Or go with a neutral cover and say it helps sleeping on the side.

In this thread: Animals only deserve to live if they have a direct use case to us humans. People here are not sure whats alle the fuss about mass extinction. Carry on beloved free market capitalism.

“Preparing a person for a position requiring skilled behavior, especially by providing opportunity for practise and guidance in making the right decisions.” Now id like to see how knowing a person is the same as preparing the person, in this case, for a sexual relationship. The act of grooming minors entails to prepare them for sexual acts in order for the abuser to have a willing object for their sexual gratification.

What you are having a problem with, and i would even say rightfully so, is the power imbalance between these people. Power imbalance can have many sources, lika age gap, power or wealth. Not sure which is the biggest factor here. But again, calling it grooming simply is the worst way to adress the problem you actually want to talk about and it is hurting victims of actual grooming. Just like calling the GOP a bunch of groomers when you would need to adress the corruption and their obvious steps towards dismantling the democracy. It is helping the offenders by derailing the whole conversation without offering any actionable steps.
