Exactly, thank you. It is clear some regular people approve, support, and demand that too. But I think the bulk of the effort comes from big companies and ONGs, pressure groups. This is at least true for my country, to put it brutally short

I don't want a private owned platform that as far as today plays a huge role in being a place for the public discourse to regulate speech. Of course, and it pains me to have to state the obvious for fear of strawmaning, saved the app

Imagine a law mandating a sign be put on every toilet stall door with the message "wipe your ass". Rather than overregulating, we should allow ourselves time to adapt to this new world, this might include - block your kid's e

Nothing personal, but this kind of comment really grind my gears. When I read a claim like the one made in that comment, I take that as a lead and am grateful that someone brought light to that POV so I can explore more, e.g. freaking googl

After watching a few Def Con talks, I' am sure there is a good chance of a very dedicated asshole out there trying to target those old systems.

You can't discard the different pressures specific to each gender, and how each gender deals in their own way with those issues. This reminds me of schools that deal with boys like they are "broken girls", they are ignoring t

Women definitely have their share on the stigma, too many times have I seen women using mental issues to emasculate men.

Check this site https://thatoneprivacysite.net/ has an extensive comparison between VPN providers. I've been using NordVPN for a couple of months and I am pretty happy with it.

It is funny how this can be clearly observed about the OK gesture deal. I would say most people see that as your regular OK gestures, while some see it as final proof of subscription to a particular ethnic related ideology.

Blockers have a negative effect on bone density and it is unknown if they affect brain development. I guess we will only really see the negative effects(if any) in a couple of decades. https://www.pbs.org/wgbh/frontline

Seems to be more a problem of expectations than anything else, people are too focused on being successful than being happy, on having it all. I would gleefully take a pay cut to have a 35h work week _if my wage still allows me to eat out on

Funny to read that, I forgot my folding knife which has a reasonably big blade inside my backpack. Went through the security of 3 different countries, no one found it, was mortified myself to find that huge blade when I arrived.

I find it distressing to hear people pushing the idea of ignoring data. As imperfect as they might be, research is our best effort of making sense of things as they are and making decisions based on our best sense of the facts.

If having a partner that did porn doesn't bother you, this changes nothing. On the other hand, if it does bother the person, then it enables him/her to rightfully discriminate who will be his/her partner for life. Least I che
