Also true, no doubt there.

Tokenization is the easy solution.

You go onto you state gov website and get a token that just says "this is an adult." Nothing else. Token lasts 10 minutes.

Cut and paste into the site. They authenticate without saying who theu are, back to the gov site, "yo, this legit?" State says "looks like something we would do." State keeps no records of WHO validated the token, just that it was a legit token.

Same way that routers connect to VPN services.

Not sure why you're getting down voted. Porn can absolutely become a behavioral addiction.

I used to work at a place where we had a lobby guard that watched porn on his phone all day (sound off). Not sitting there trying to jerk it, it was a compulsion. He would just be watching it while talking to other people, standing by the door...it was weird. He eventually got fired because he genuinely couldn't not watch porn.

That being said, I'm a huge privacy advocate, and while there are actually ways to anonymously be on a website and verify age, that's not how anyone is doing it. Things like signing up for an account on a site and scanning your ID are just abysmally stupid. There's a zero percent chance that this system as is doesnt lead to data theft and possibly even extortion.

Mon Dieu, qui voudrait supprimer le pack de langue française ?

Was sadly on Windows without my explicit consent :(

All to try and flood the treasury so he can afford tax cuts he promised to donors.

Turns out running the government is hard and it sucks.

To be fair, the way I would get around the URL blocker at work for some basic 10 minute diversion type games would be up just have Gemini code a game for me and run it locally.

Terrible. It's a feature, not a bug.

The point in not remembering past lives is that each life is supposed to be full of learning and growing and experiences that aren't weighed down and tainted by the egos of past incarnations.

Imagine having been an illiterate miner in the Old West that lives to 95, then showing up with that perspective in the 80s. You'd simply be a cantankerous Luddite set in old ways. Note do that over and over and over.

It's a joy to shed the ego.

Literally dozens of us.

That's what the broligarchy paid for. Literally. The term is "RAGE" Retire All Government Employees.

People in general have no idea and just want to get spun up on drama and manufactured outrage.

Same thing happened when people started scrapping Twitter 10-15 years ago.

Seriously.

One vampire Dev pops "by clicking agree, you consent to vampires entering your home." Into line 57842368 of the Instagram/FB TOS and suddenly it's a feeding frenzy....

...How does one sell a script to Black Mirror?

Yeah, it's different for everyone.

My "counterfactual" is knowing a lot of kids that were home schooled. They were just young weird adults that didn't thrive in most circumstances. There's a reason why even rural agrarian societies found value is putting kids together.

Because my crusty heart knows not but an abundance of hate, greed, and darkness.

But maybe I'm give it a try later today, I dunno.

Amazing how this guy has no idea that schools are just as much about socializing and learning to deal with other people and situations you'll be in for the rest of your life. That's not "child care," it's a structured environment where the main goal is learning and the real benefits are everything else on the fringes.

I don't think I've ever seen such a hard sell for a font.

Been on Linux for 18 months as my daily driver. Can't possibly love it any more.

The guy's not a Lannister. I mean, he probably would fuck his sister, but still...

Dads that quote this are engaging in a form of Dunning-Kruger effect. Often they aren't self-aware enough to realize that if you have to say you're so smart, it often means you ain't that smart.
