Maybe. Nobody can prove it.
- Comment on GenAI website goes dark after explicit fakes exposed 1 day ago:
Obviously you don’t know what gen AI has become.
- Comment on GenAI website goes dark after explicit fakes exposed 1 day ago:
Japan is country that has legal drawn cp. It’s available in physical store and online. Yet Japan is much lower than most developed country in the world in terms of actual sexual child abuse.
- Comment on GenAI website goes dark after explicit fakes exposed 1 day ago:
So is that the Gen AI problem or the open internets problem. It sounds like you hate the open internet and awful people who put real cp online and not Gen AI.
- Comment on GenAI website goes dark after explicit fakes exposed 1 day ago:
I mean, you’re not giving a very convincing argument.
- Comment on China launches military drills around Taiwan 2 days ago:
Seems like modern CCP is getting to that point now.
- Comment on GenAI website goes dark after explicit fakes exposed 2 days ago:
But who is actually getting hurt? No kid has gotten hurt using Gen AI.
- Comment on GenAI website goes dark after explicit fakes exposed 2 days ago:
Im not advocating for cp. I’m advocating for freedom.
A crime is only a crime if someone is negative effected. Gen AI is just a more accessible Photoshop.
- Comment on GenAI website goes dark after explicit fakes exposed 2 days ago:
I don’t need to. It’s is just the way gen AI works. It takes images of things it knows and then generates NEW content based on what it think you want with your prompts.
If I’m looking for a infant flying an airplane, gen AI knows what a pilot looks like and what a child looks like and it creates something new.
Also kids face data doesn’t mean they take the actual face of the actual child and paste it on a body. It might take an eyebrow and a freckle from one kidand use a hair style from another and eyes from someone else.
Lastly, the kids parents consented when they upload images of their kids on social media.
- Comment on GenAI website goes dark after explicit fakes exposed 2 days ago:
I agree it shouldn’t be accepted, but I disagree on being allowed. I think it should be allowed because it doesn’t hurt anyone.
- Comment on GenAI website goes dark after explicit fakes exposed 2 days ago:
Japan has a vibrant drawn cp market yet they not not even close to the highest rate of child abuse. undispatch.com/here-is-how-every-country-ranks-on…
- Comment on China launches military drills around Taiwan 2 days ago:
Except it’s not. The original China government was not the ones who started the civil war.
- Comment on GenAI website goes dark after explicit fakes exposed 2 days ago:
No cp should be acceptable. But I argue AI generated isn’t cp.
This is no different than someone cutting out a child’s head from a Target catalog and sticking it to a body on a playboy magazine and masturbating to it.
Or someone using Photoshoping a kids head to a pornographic photo.
It’s just a more accessible version of those examples.
At the end of the day, what you do in your own home is your thing. t’s not my business what you do. As long as it doesn’t hurt/affect anyone, go ahead.
- Comment on GenAI website goes dark after explicit fakes exposed 2 days ago:
Technically speaking, if you post images of your child on social media, you have consented. If you never uploaded an image of your child online, you never need to worry.
- Comment on GenAI website goes dark after explicit fakes exposed 2 days ago:
Gen AI doesn’t take cp content and recreates it. There wouldn’t be a point of gen AI if that is the case. It knows what regular porn looks like and what a child looks like and it generates an image. With those inputs it can create something new and at the same time hurt nobody.
- Comment on China launches military drills around Taiwan 2 days ago:
Yo CCP. You already fucked up your economy and your people are fed up with your shit. How about you focus on your own people and leave us alone.
- Comment on China launches military drills around Taiwan 2 days ago:
Nope. Not even close. Imagine if the Union lost and was held up in Hawaii and the Confederacy was trying to take over the island.
The original China lost the civil war.
- Comment on GenAI website goes dark after explicit fakes exposed 2 days ago:
I’m no pedo, but what you do in your own home and hurts nobody is your own thing.
- Comment on GenAI website goes dark after explicit fakes exposed 2 days ago:
Who actually gets hurt in AI generated cp? The servers?

Whatever it takes for me to survive out here.
- Comment on Reddit’s 50% Plunge Fails to Entice Dip Buyers as Growth Slows. 6 days ago:
So I work in advertising for a company that is top 20 on the Fortune 500. We advertise everywhere including Reddit.
The returns on Reddit isn’t even very good. We still spend money there as a pure name recognition play.
As of now, for the company I work for, it’s not working.

I started my financial success after pirating instead of paying subscriptions. Took that extra money and bought some random stocks.

I have a thinkpad in the late 90s and it still boots up till this day. I added more memory and added an SSD and a fresh set of batteries. This shit just won’t die.

Are hotels parasites too? When you lease a car, are the dealers parasites? How about short term rentals for traveling nurses. Are those parasites too?
If I own a house and have roommates, am I a parasite too?
Grow up man. Renting a home has advantages that people like me pay for.
The place I’m renting is in an amazing area that I would never be able to afford. My son goes to school in a nicer, safer area.
I can move out whenever I want to without worrying about selling my place.
When something breaks, 1 phone call and my issue is fixed.
I pay less than a mortgage and the money I save, I guess to diversity my retirement/investment. Instead of dumping my entire asset in a home.
- Comment on Nobody Wants a Nazi Electric Car 4 weeks ago:
Yes, there are efficiencies since all the tech is pretty close, but that pales in comparison to the sheer dollars injected into the industries. 231 billion dollars. Compare that to the 2nd closest investment into a car manufacturer which is the USA at 30 billion.
Each one of these new 500+ car manufacturers produced cars at a loss. Not because efficiencies. Because of subsidies. In some cases, not even sold at all. youtu.be/vplPmxVRcnk
Here in Taiwan, we get unfiltered China news.

Competition is good. I welcome Kevin to try again.
- Comment on Nobody Wants a Nazi Electric Car 4 weeks ago:
So much to unpack here but I’ll do my best to address everything you’re saying here.
1- Chinese cars can’t compete in price: yes because China has been dumping subsidies into the market, inflating the supply. China dumped 231 billion dollars into EVs from 2009 to 2023. Over 500 electric car brands were created due to this injection. There is only are less than 100 left after China stopped the subsidies.
2- The Chinese EV are a superior product: which one of the 500 car companies are you referring to? outside ofthe top China brands (Geely, BYD), they all sorta suck.
China is doing is state sponsored “dumping”. en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dumping_(pricing_policy) which artificially reduces prices to gain market share and has a negative effect on the industry. Every country in the world, not just the US, has an anti dumping policy, including China.
While we the consumer would love to spend pennies on the dollar for an electric cars, the effect is only temporary and when we start losing car companies due to this practice, prices always, ALWAYS, are higher after we lose competition.
Anti dumping policies is not hindering free market. The second you inject 231 billion dollars of government subsidies into an industry, is the second it no longer becomes a free market.
Yes, the USA has also has given subsidies. In total about 30 billion dollars. A drop in the bucket on the 231 billion the CCP has injected.
- Comment on Nobody Wants a Nazi Electric Car 4 weeks ago:
I live in Taiwan and we call those China made cars tofu cars. Their domestic cars are terrible. So many of them are going out of business because the the CCP lowered down the subsidies.
I won’t be caught dead in one.
