  • i am confused because this guy was in jail for this and somewhat impressed that he has the balls to pull the same stunt 2 times in a row.

  • my bet is that his system is infected with something redirecting him there, and the norton trash he is using instead of windows defender doesn't detect the infection, but the firewall blocks the connection to the site at least lol

  • literally how traditions work

  • One thing i agree on with you is that at most of the women i had sex with were pretty bad at verbalizing what they want in bed, regardless of when they are asked about it, and that's coming from an european where sex stuff is a lot less taboo to talk about than in the states. This is one thing that gets better with age, tho - older women seem to be much more vocal about their needs, so i would say experience is the key factor here. given how sexually repressive the US are especially towards women, it's something that only social reform can fix, and currently the US are making steps backwards instead of forwards in that regard.

    Body shaming to hurt someone during a breakup is not ok and a character flaw; breakups hurt enough as it is without stuff like that. I'm happy i haven't experienced that yet; all my relationships so far have ended amicably, even if tears where involved on both sides - it just didn't work out anymore. There would probably be no issue if i met any of my previous partners again.

    I do not agree that all sex is transactional. I know it isn't for me, i can be perfectly content with giving pleasure without receiving anything in return, and i believe most sex is cooperative, working together towards fullfillment of both parties. That includes a transaction, if you really want to be pedantic about it, but the transaction is pretty low-key.

  • I know from my netherlands visits (from locals, personally i'm not into sex workers) that the bouncers in the Amsterdam redlight district don't fuck around when one of the girls have any issue with a client, so they tend to behave themselves.

  • from what i understand, a decentralized bluesky is nothing for an enduser at all.

    TL;DR: the cost for an enduser to run a bluesky instance will soon be prohibitive because of the amount of storage needed owed to its shared heap architecture. but what it does is to provide a "credible exit" - if users lose trust or the company shutters, there's nothing in the way of another organisation picking up the mantle and continue from there on.

  • There is a wealth of resources regarding sexuality and thematics for adolescents in general available here: https://www.youmo.se/en/

    also, Big Mough comes recommended by the city of reykjavik, which has lots of stuff regarding sexuality and gender issues, but not all in english.

    i want to emphasise training how to use a condom, finding out the correct size is something that's on his to do list. Proper hygiene is also learned (my parents didn't give a shit and it caused me problems far longer than necessary) - tell him if he needs to shower, body odor changes fast during puberty, and it's easy to be nose-blind to your own smell.

    I saw someone recommend giving a gift card for a sex toy - i think that's a good idea, the sex drive in puberty was constant and to be honest at times annoying and distracting,

  • thanks, i wanted to comment something similar - training is necessary, and i would have been very pleased if someone told me that condoms are not a "one size fits all"-thing at all

  • I'm using a MSI Force GC30 V2, currently per usb, but it comes with a 2.4GHz adapter that works on the OG Steam Link, so it will probably work under any linux distro. XBox Layout, great battery life, shutoff is ca. 5 Minutes. Only drawback is the integrated battery, but i have not yet experienced much of a reduced battery life over the last 2 years. bonus: can be switched to an Android-compatibility mode for gaming on smartphones. costs 35€ currently, but the build quality is the same as the official xbox series controller (which i used exclusively before)

  • pegging is quite literally pushing shit good

  • if it's non-linear, maybe a reincarnation in a parallel universe without those grifters would be to your taste?

  • i currently have something similar with video output: if i turn off my monitor and turn it back on too fast (or if i disconnect/reconnect it), now there is no more picture, and i have to reboot per remote shell to get it back.

    oh well, at least there's an open issue in some github about it, so it will be fixed sometime in the future.

  • i switched to lemmy after seeing the crackdown after the blackouts where they just repo'ed subreddits that didn't stand down - it was clear then that internal forces would not be able to change a thing over there. i couldn't support a site that was doing shit like this. (It's the reason i keep pestering my wife to leave facebook and instagram after zucks kneefall for trump, and switch to pixelfed and bluesky instead; lemmy wouldn't be a good place for her, but i can see her enjoying pixelfed a lot)

  • It is definitely more successful than the previous strategy in one of the ancestors was (or else it wouldn't have been selected for), and mutations that reduce the dementia and allow for more reproductive cycles seen to negatively influence reproduction in either fitness or number of the offspring or chance of successful reproduction, so the trait persists.

    Since this is a numbers game, even miniscule differences in reproductive success (which isn't clearly measurable in the wild) have a large impact on genetic drift.

    Since the origin of the current behavior lies in the past, it might not be possible to see what evolutionary pressure induced the behavior in the first place.

  • there is a new in dev version of the vortex mod manager that does work under linux available under https://github.com/Nexus-Mods/NexusMods.App ... it's not complete yet, but it works for cyberpunk for me, check it out!

  • yeah, and you always can fall back to your clean, untouched installation :-)

  • @mudman@fedia.io

    there is one company (paragon software) that sells ext2/3/4 (full access) and btrfs/xfs (read access only) drivers for windows, which worked pretty good for me, and they have a demo version for 7 days. price for consumer licences are about 30€. i didn't try putting my steam library there tho, so your milage may vary.

    But i would recommend what i did a few monhst ago: after 3 days with nobara 40 i just deleted my windows and the few programs that don't work under linux now live in a VM; my mouse/keyboard software for creating macros only works under windows, but the profiles themselves are stored on the devices so they still work under linux.

    I just love the BTRFS features like deduplication - its great for modding large games, saves huge amounts of disk space, and the merging of disks into a single drive in raid0 configuration is super easy and has great performance. NTFS feels just slow and sluggish in comparison.
