  • So you agree that Beahm is a pedo? You replied to a person that does not think he is a pedo with "fair take". Maybe you replied to the wrong person.

  • The country is America dumbass. Age of consent is 18 in America. She was a minor, he was trying to solicit her at twitchcon. If you want to go the legal angle, that is a crime.

    That's not societal definition, that's the clinical definition. But If you want to be pedantic, yes you are right. He's actually an ephebophile, which is still detestable and is still illegal, still immoral, and still very fucking creepy.

    Sexting a child is wrong. How is that hard for you to understand?

    Are you a Doc fan? Are you a pedo/ephebophile? Libertarian? What's going on here?

  • He admitted to sexting a minor. How the fuck is he not guilty and why are you out here trying to defend pedophilia?

  • No it's not. Beahm, a 38 year old man at the time, was sexting a minor. That makes him a pedo.

  • It's called statutory rape. And he was married and 38 at the time. And he was also trying to meet this person at twitch con. And this is the same year of twitch con that he was caught cheating on his wife.

    No amount of spin makes this OK. Please stop trying to justify pedophilia in defense of your favorite streamer. Sexting a minor is not ok, and the fact that even Beahm himself couldn't spin this in a way that's good for him should tell you something.

  • I'd be willing to bet humans also innately believe the earth is flat (in your day-to-day life it certainly doesn't look like we're on a spherical object hurling through space), but that doesn't make it so.

  • I'm sure they do, likely have their own internal security team as well as contract security work out. The purpose of hiring hackers isn't to make the company unhackable, it's to make it harder, more time consuming and costly to hack the company.

  • Not at all surprising to me. America is deeply reactionary. Made worse by the fact that our electoral system gives disproportionate representation to rural areas.

  • It's cut off in Voyager for me as well.

  • Literally quoting you lol.

    I'm old enough to remember "asl?". Why do you ask about my age, looking for an easy way to dismiss me?

    Out of curiosity, are you religious?

  • To shame someone is entirely different than to feel ashamed of yourself.

    Is it? The end result is a feeling of shame. And that feeling of shame, doesn't make people lose weight. I've now said it for the 4th time. But yeah, I'm the one that doesn't understand words.

    If you kick a dog, you should feel ashamed of yourself without someone shaming you. If you forgo a healthy weight or lifestyle in favor of overconsumption and ignorance, you should feel ashamed of yourself without someone shaming you.

    I see, so it's a moral failing of someone to be fat? Akin to kicking a dog? Wild take.

    In the end, you're right. I'm not interested in having this conversation. Because this isn't a conversation about making people healthier, it's a moral conversation. And I don't think someone is immoral for having an eating disorder just as I don't think someone is immoral for having cancer.

    If you would like to discuss actionable, material ways to help people I'm all in. If you want to larp as a televangelist screeching about the evils of being fat, I'm out.

  • I'm frankly not even clear what the conversation is that you're trying to have. You claim, "I'm not saying we should shame people" and then go on to once again declare that "if people feel ashamed they'll lose weight". So which is it, is shame helpful as a weightloss tool or not? Spoiler alert: it's not.

    To me it honestly seems like you accidentally triple downed on an objectively bad position and are trying to buzzword your way out of it with accusations of virtue signaling and trolling.

    Just take the L and move on dude.

  • My dad introduced me to Napster and Weird Al.

  • Do I need to repeat myself for a 3rd time? Do you not realize that "ashamed" is the adjective form of "shame"?

  • I see, so what is the difference between the two?

    I've been thinking of OSS and source available as interchangeable. But now it kind of seems to me that free software is interchangeable with open source software. Is it just a matter of branding?

  • You maybe replied before seeing my edit, but I actually quoted that article in the edit.

  • Doesn't FOSS refer to software this is both free and open source? Not a union of free software and open source software? My understanding is that if a piece of software is not both open and free then it is not FOSS.

    EDIT:

    From the wiki page:

    Free and open-source software (FOSS) is software that is available under a license that grants the right to use, modify, and distribute the software, modified or not, to everyone free of charge. The public availability of the source code is, therefore, a necessary but not sufficient condition. FOSS is an inclusive umbrella term for free software and open-source software.

  • If you’re ashamed for being overweight, that’s something that should motivate you to lose the weight.

    You would think so, but you'd be wrong. As I said before, shaming not only doesn't work but has the opposite effect.

    As James Corden said:

    If making fun of fat people made them lose weight, there'd be no fat kids in schools.

    If you're sincere in your desire to make people healthier, then shame is not the way.

    If you're only interested in a feeling of superiority, then carry on I guess.
