Depends if you want to eat ass or vag.

Is there any chance that comment was satire?

Season 2 is out and there is a third season on the way. They're beyond the book, obviously, but Gaiman co-wrote it.

But elections do determine the ratio of beatings to helpful legislation that occurs when government is forced to do something.

Ah, I see.

Don't fix the typo, I'm enjoying the mystery.

I understand where you're coming from and I'm pretty much an atheist, but if that happened I would at least consider taking a stroll over to the temple.

Florida is beautiful. It's a damn shame about the culture that's developed there.

Are his shares restricted? The way I understand it, usually insiders aren't allowed to sell until some time after the IPO.

Recently I looked into upping my privacy game after learning about everything companies like lexisnexis are collecting about me. It was extremely overwhelming. I'm considering mostly giving up on privacy, with exceptions in a few areas, and pivoting to making that info worthless by doing more to block ads.

I think part of the difficulty discussing this is the discussions usually combine two different things. The production and distribution.

I was informed elsewhere in this thread people can already produce these images/videos on their own machines with no third parties involved or remote processing. I can't think of a single thing that can be done about that so acceptance is all we've got.

Nonconsensual sharing, on the other hand, we can and should do something about. The legal system won't be able to stop it altogether but it can push it to the fringes and stop it from becoming mainstream so any victims wouldn't see fake images/videos of themselves proliferating everywhere.

Well...shit. It seems like any new laws are already too little too late then.

Some people can, I wouldn't even know where to start. And is the photo/video generator completely on home machines without any processing being done remotely already?

I'm thinking about a future where simple tools are available where anyone could just drop in a photo or two and get anything up to a VR porn video.

As soon as anyone can do this on their own machine with no third parties involved all laws and other measures being discussed will be moot.

We can punish nonconsensual sharing but that's about it.

I didn't expect to get a laugh out of reading this discussion, thanks.

I stayed with Sprint through years of them being the shittiest in my area because I was grandfathered into an old plan with free nights starting at 5pm. Just taking non-stop at 6pm like a baller.

I see this as a positive. Instead of being fed content to keep me engaged by an algorithm until I suddenly realize the day is almost over and I didn't really enjoy myself, I reach a point where I feel like I'm done for the day then I make plans, play a game, read, etc.

Now I read the news, fuck around on lemmy a bit, then actually get on with a "real" day.

I think in this context self-employed means being a farmer, carpenter, grocer, etc. not a 1099 contractor.

Agree, also, I'm Lewis so I win.

Like I said to that guy, did you even watch the movie? "Addressing real issues" was core to the movie. Michael B. Jordan's character was motivated by hundreds of years of colonialism, the transatlantic slave trade, and racism faced by black people the world over, and specifically in the U.S.
