- Comment on Meta starts kicking Australian children off Instagram and Facebook 4 days ago:
The problem is not even social media itself, but the fact that profit-driven ANYTHING cares more about money than its own consumers. Quite frankly, what should be happening is to see some of these people changing to better alternatives, like Mastodon and Lemmy.
Finally, I do not believe this will remain only for the 16- age group. I am aware this is extreme speculation, but this may eventually roll out to some “dangerous” adults, then union workers (ahain, “dangerous), then women, then everyone that is not wealthy enough to bribe oneself into social media. I also believe this is one of many steps to castrate the future of the young, and to control the narrative.
Do not take my word for it, however; check back in this post, some years from now.

Ah yes, cybersecurity.
- Comment on [deleted] 1 week ago:
One of the first rules I have is to be honest with people, even if it hurts, and even if it burns enough bridges to ruin my own life. It seems your thoughts do not coincide with this, and quite frankly, you’re thinking of doing something very bad morally & ethically, considering Beth most likely is not into you either, and is not a petty person.
TL;DR: Just move on, bro.

- Comment on How has there not yet been a leak of the Epstein files? Surely there is someone with access to them that could have been subject to worldwide pressure to let something out. 2 weeks ago:
It is not about me, because I am not a rapist. For rapists, however, it is about power, not sex. So, by being raped, rapists lose that power.

Non, monsieur. He is saying that any prosuct, whether flawless or not, must have proper information about it, since we are not born knowing how to use Windows, either.

It is more about treating people with the respect that you wish to be treated with.

Because it sets a precedent. If the $20k taxes go through, why not some $120k ones in the future? At the very least, this is their logic.

God, so many things gone wrong there. At least they could use “30” as the default value, right???

Unless society gets revolutionized so that people can remain in their homes as much as they want (and even then), that is not an option.

I never thought I’d hear someone mentioning the Bosnian Ape Society, on Lemmy.
- Comment on 2 months ago:
People should still have an expectation of privacy in public spaces to some extent, otherwise the only way is to move to the foresf. One should not have to be concerned about being recorded, especially children (a pdfile can take photos to pick “targets”, so to speak).

Lemmy witchcraft is something I never thought was possible, until now.
- Comment on Peter Thiel Antichrist lecture: We asked guests what the hell it is 2 months ago:
Unpopular opinion: he is onto something…
However, he is also projecting (and yes, both can be true simultaneously). This leaves me with another question: since Thiel is not a genius AND is a son of a bitch, there must be others that have a very similar idea; creating chaos to bring “order”. Who are they?

This is one of the reasons why I preach against Electron apps and the “storage is cheap” argument. Additionally, it may also be really expensive for people in 3rd world countries to buy storage.
- Comment on YouTube is now flagging accounts on Premium family plans that aren't in the same household 2 months ago:
Most certainly off-topic, but I have found other cool workarounds for apps.
For instance, if you open 2 windows of, say, PowerPoint (1 you want to use, the other you must close after; read below). Then, go to the one you don’t want to use (or at least one you use for this method), and wait for the no account/Office not bought/whatever pop up; in any case, do NOT close the pop up. Open the other PowerPoint, and then close the former. If done right, you’ll be pleasantly surprised that it works perfectly! After that, you can open any additional ppt files. Do note that, after you close PowerPoint entirely, you gotta do this all over again.
