In my view porn isn't the root cause of the problem. It's a symptom. The root cause being not having a partner with whom you can achieve sexual satisfaction. Considering porn as being the subject of human urges is perhaps misguide

It's always been bad. But Google has always been less bad then other search engines. Then also you need to ask the right question. Googling something like "Toyota RAV4" will give wildly different results than "common pro

I would take the Asus Vivobook Pro 14" as a basis / starting point. It has an OLED screen (good colors for Photoshop) and runs plenty of games easily thanks to its GTX 1650.

But wouldn't those infections be detected eventually? They would need to update/hide their "solution" every time A/V software comes with updates to detect them. It would be too late already.

Google probably gets 100000 queries with unintentional typo's. Then Maybe 10 queries where the typo is intentional. They're simply gearing their features towards the larger use case.

No, I'm ignoring where you're placing the goalposts. I agree with you that certain flavors of lockdowns do not provide sufficient benefits. But you seem to be under the impression that there exists no form of lockdown that works.

Thanks, very interesting. I'll be looking into those protocols. Though I suspect these will not allow me to send some A/V stream from my desktop to my phone. Or from my phone to my receiver. Basically a protocol that allows anyone

I don't understand how you can be skeptical about lockdowns. The virus needs people to come in contact in order to spread. If you reduce contact you reduce spreading. It's the simple fact of the matter. Case closed. Nobody denies

I once got rejected for a job, only to be accepted for it a couple of weeks later through a different recruiter (and with a higher rate). I pretended I "didn't know" it was for the same company. Must have been funny to have m
