It should be legal but it’s not. Those are government officials with clearances which put up their Driver’s licenses and credit card information on an illegal site to bang hookers. That’s the issue.

The “name and shame” argument is also meaningless. Take marijuana for example. If you’re a government official who is actively pushing for legalization and it comes up that you actually consume it… ok? Big news, you’re putting your mouth where your money is. Nobody cares, there’s no “shame” in being “named”. The issue comes when people are publicly against marijuana/prostitution and then engage in it. Those are hypocrites and should be shamed.

I mean, it’s trying to compete against Steam. A platform which has 99% of the games ever released on PC after its inception at the same price and with a great interface.

You’re not winning against that unless you actually sell the same games at a lower price (and I don’t think they can afford to do that)

Because they’re straight-up illegal and harmful to people. I’m talking CSAM, Necrophilia, and stuff like that.

I have no issue with anything if there’s no real people or all the people included are consenting, but there’s lines that shouldn’t be crossed.

I get what you're saying but there's quite a lot of illegal stuff you really shouldn't jerk to.

The only ones I know involve the protagonist going to a post-apocalyptic future, like 7 Seeds or in a sense Dr.Stone, or from the past to our present like Thermae Romae. I don't think there's any real series from the present to a Cyberpunk/Sci-Fi future, the only one I know of is a hentai (I heard the plot is actually decent, but it's still porn in the end).

It's from AnimeMaru, which is (was?) basically the Anime Onion.

However, "Mukuwarenakatta Murabito A, Kizoku ni Hirowarete Dekiai sareru Ue ni, Jitsu wa Motteita Densetsu-kyuu no Kami Skill mo Kakusei shita" (The Villager Who Was Abandoned, Was Picked Up by an Aristocrat and Awakened a Legendary Divine Skill) is an actual series which has an anime announced.

Everyone torrented in the 00’s, and Netflix was born from that.

No way they’ll let the whole market crash before trying to get some customers back.

I distinctly remember reading that on somewhere reputable but it seems you’re right. Thanks for the fact check.

I mean, didn’t Vine fail even with mostly low-quality videos? I’m assuming even 720p could be a challenge for a decentralized site.

EDIT: Apparently I was misremembering

“Gee, I wonder why kids these days don’t trust law enforcement!”

I think Valve would appreciate if everyone forgot about Artifact as well

Valve releases nothing but polished games without anything predatory.

Counterpoint: Artifact.

(I mostly agree on everything else though)

Is it really not possible to do anything about this? Isn’t the police government-funded, doesn’t the president/ruling party have any say in how it operates?

Genuinely asking, I’m not American so I routinely get confused by how the government there works.

It’s just the “196” community, which already existed on Reddit. From what I understood, the only rule is you have to post something before you leave, and put “rule” in the title. As for the reason, or why is it called like that, I’m not sure either.

And then the rest of the humanoids just died off? That just raises more questions lol

This feels like the Haruhi Suzumiya theory where the universe was created like 2 years prior to the beginning of the series.

And somehow the one created for a young adult novel series seems more realistic than the one actual people believe.

I mean, you said yourself it’s something that should be used a few times a year max. Leaving something like that as easily obtainable whenever you want seems a recipe for disaster.

Alcohol can be dangerous, but only if you drink a fuckton or if you do on a daily basis (and even then, it has to be a certain level of alcohol because one glass of wine per day isn’t really that harmful). It should definitely be regulated better, but saying it’s more dangerous than ecstasy seems a bit too much.

Anyway there isn’t really much of a point in discussing any further whether stuff like ecstasy should be fully legalized or not when plain old cannabis is still illegal in most of the world. Let’s first do the stuff we (almost?) everyone agree with.

On Reddit it was actually a block that forbid people from seeing, or commenting on your stuff.

That led to people spreading fake news and blocking people who pointed them out, so that they couldn’t get reported on following ones.

It sucked. It’s much better like this.

You are saying destroyed, as if the job itself is a service. Work is cost not value.

That doesn’t apply to art, though. Artists enjoy their job and are grateful that they can earn a living by doing it, so the job is the service.

This would not be a problem if we actually had an UBI-like system or the cost of basic living was near zero, but apparently we like getting rid of solutions before finding better ones.
