i genuinely cannot see how this improves anything. if they want to keep them kids in the dark about sexual stuff - how is pushing them to be exposed to most likely hardcore bdsm on the front page assuring that?
honestly i'm not surprised. now i look at the old graphics my eyes hurt, even though i remember it looking like the remake, my mind's eye really had to work overtime on that. makes sense that people were put off by the bright textures with both over and under saturates colours and decided to not play it
is it breaking the cycle? it sounds to me like like leaving the cycle and then living in fear of ever connecting with anyone because you're afraid that the cycle is the only way you can be
i'm willing to bet the sheer pressure of having to follow up Hollow Knight added a couple of years to the development stage. they're a small studio and their first game that got any attention got all the attention. and now they have millions of people salivating over the implications of word spellings in their dialogue and lore texts. everyone suffers from a debuff to performance when someone is watching, and the eyes are all on them
But overall, enforcement causes nearly half of users to stop searching for popular adult sites complying with laws and instead search for a noncompliant rival (48 percent) or virtual private network (VPN) services (34 percent), which are used to mask a location and circumvent age checks on preferred sites, the study found.
what a fucking surprise. now the teens only watch porn that is already skirting around laws just by virtue of existing. truly nobody could've ever imagined this would happen
hmm, just because non-english subreddits are small doesn't really tell us much here. Non-English speaking monolinguals are used to smaller communities (let's ignore China and India for the sake of this thought experiment) simply because the number of the speakers of their language is smaller. So a subreddit of a smaller size wouldn't be particularly surprising here
those folks often use the same social media platforms within their own linguistic bubbles. Not always, of course, you gave examples of websites used by specific language speakers, but i'm just pointing out how this might not be a universal fact for every language
bows are very effective, especially if you get some sharp arrows + you get an element of surprise, people don't exactly expect to be shot with an arrow
this wasn't the first time it happened either, i was bewildered when i didn't know where he was because i stopped looking at them for 2 minutes and then found him there, i put him down and he immediately went to do it again so i recorded it that time 😭
i only have a video of this crime because he's a very good climber and i just picked him up after he was done exploring. but most of the time they need to be scooped immediately
as an owner of two rats i 100% believe that, they're too clever and absolutely know when you're looking (and the second you stop looking they're already somewhere they shouldn't be in)
the key word here is at random, you imagine a situation where you're doing it at random, but you're not actually answering randomly are you?
