> But asking permission is not really an option, and I'll explain why using a different situation. We were also mandatory reporters, which meant that if we knew that a child was being abused, we had to report it to the authorities.

Are you me? My ex had that same thing happen to him, police showed up, got tazed and arrested after defending themselves. Now they have a criminal record. So, obviously there is some bias on my end, its probably why I'm so skeptical re

If you're assuming they are giving you permission, couldn't you just ask "I want to send emergency services your way, is that okay?" If they say "Yes", you have permission. If they say "No", you do no

Speaking of anonymity, I wish suicide hotlines would be upfront about the possibility of 'active rescue', that is, calling the police if they think you're about to kill yourself. It seems like a disclaimer they would run at t

It's so strange to me that a culture would encourage people to remain silent during something like this. I can't imagine having a stranger put their hands down my pants on a crowded subway and not turning around and slugging them

“I told them that I would accept the resignation as he wished but would like him to contact me first to confirm his safety.” Am I being jaded or does anyone else doubt the employer's motivation was entirely altruistic? I mean your empl

I'm surprised and confused somebody would use a public-facing website like Instagram to do something so illegal and taboo. Wouldn't they use Tor or at least a private Telegram chat? What, do they just paypal the money? Seems like

But it would also mean bringing Steam to Mac in a way that doesn't suck.

I'm not arguing that extorting people or making them feel violated is right. I'm arguing that our social norms are what allow this sort of exploitation to happen and we should examine our collective responsibility for it.

I suppose not. But if I was in a very Muslim centric country and people were complaining that this software allows pictures of women without a hijab, my first thought would be the same: why is that such a bad thing? I mean the article itsel

But that's my point. Why would I care if somebody saw me naked?

I'm surprised they haven't worked directly with Valve for Proton support...

I guess as someone who lived in a long time in a clothing optional community, the idea that people being naked is a bad thing (we are all naked under our clothes) really confuses me.

I wonder if the Internet and AI generation will lead to a culture change where a picture of someone (real or fake) in a sexual situation will no longer be extortion worthy. Seems odd that a picture of someone naked can lead to a loss of the

Is mainstream porn extremely violent? I am legit asking as someone who typically only looks at furry porn.

I didn't say any means. I'm not at the point where I'm willing to degrade democracy like that. But its sort of like asking if it would have been okay to assassinate Hitler (he was elected remember) before the holocaust took p

At what point is this a public health issue though? If the policy failures during this era end up leading to a state of mass famine, emigration, and death rivialing the disruption caused by COVID, is it a public health issue yet? How can yo

I am...very surprised by some of the discussion here. Maybe I'm just not that familiar with the harms of social media as someone who chooses not to use it. But support for anynomity and free access to information was always part of wha

What about furry porn? Does that abuse anyone? Do you find fuzzy animals having sex to be dangerous to children too?

Fucking. Preach. Just so you know you can fix EA games on the Steam Deck by logging into EA with your steam account and linking it. All the EA launcher games will work again. Go to EAs help page. https://help.ea.com/en/

I'd like to hear more about your idea of unifying themes. Can you give me some more concrete examples. How would nationalism (or did you mean patriotism) and shared heritage work in the United States?

If everyday citizens cannot be trusted to tell truth from fiction, or to choose democracy over fascism, how can they be trusted to elect their rulers? Why believe in democracy at all? And while I believe wealth disparity, healthcare, and fa

I'm not entirely sure I agree. I mean, maybe I do. I think one could argue that the internet is a lot more moderated in this day and age, but maybe you were referring more to the addictive and destructive effects of social media. Do yo
