Yeah I'm a real person, the name is just a reference to getting banned on Reddit many times, and then getting banned immediately across several discuss.online communities for hurting a mod's feelings. I guess if it's going to happen, might as well ask for it.

  • Around here you have to pay the property taxes for several years in a row, if the actual owners realize after a few years and start again, you're just out the money. Which... seems like a good way to only pay your property taxes once every few years, if you don't mind your property going to hell (lots of folks around here do not, based on the number of burnt out houses).

    Civil forfeiture could actually be improved in some cases, like if you just give up and move along and your house is a nuisance attracting crime and squatters, your neighbors should be able to fix that by petitioning for ownership, instead of having to wait until the house is worthless and likely burned down for anything to be possible.

  • Fuck models and prostitutes for a while. Pretty soon you can't get it up for regular models and prostitutes. Then you need world-class, best anywhere models and prostitutes, famous ones. Then that stops working. Then you need the kink to really lay on. Gets old pretty fast. Nothing is getting it up anymore. Then one day, you see your daughter down the hall, and it twitches. But you can't fuck her, she's gonna be around forever and in society where your secret won't be safe. She could tell her therapist, her teachers, her mother, the world-class model prostitute you're married to. Thankfully Uncle Epstein has a bunch of girls who are disposable. It's just that he has an odd tendency to take photos of you. But that's OK, everyone you see here is rich and powerful too, if one of you goes down, you all go down... and that can't possibly happen.

  • Where was the outrage - and where IS it still - about PCs and circuit manufacturing that allowed the computing revolution to occur? The negative externalities have always been kids getting cancer, growing up scavenging metals from landfills in other countries. Whole generations of people.

    Just about everything we do has negative externalities like that. Plastic recycling, textile production, the labor used to build houses and harvest crops in the US.

    I'm not trying to tu quoque anyone here, because we should be able to criticize things even though we participate in those or other problematic issues. But it seems like the AI hatred is so strong on this site, and it's absent any other hatred and outrage that could have long been a focal point up until now. We get it, you hate AI, which has been around for a few years in LLM form and hasn't been perfected yet, even though consumer electronics companies have still not managed to meet their environmental goals after decades, and you're certainly using those devices to your hearts content.

    Sometimes I think Lemmy should just be renamed "We fucking hate AI and will never budge on that."

  • I agree 100% but also this is like when you watch your brother punch your dad to make him stop hitting your mom, and you know you're going to get the shit kicked out of both of you later for it.

  • Same reason they only come out when surrounded by bulletproof glass or in sniper-controlled areas now. They don't want to be individually targeted.

    Now it's interesting to imagine what would happen if hundreds of officials were individually targeted, but having a bunch of guns at your house ≠ that. Still the issue of targeted suppression exists, and would be highly effective.

    If you burn down a neighborhood, if you shoot an RPG or a drone at a house, none of the guns inside matter, except they make it more lethal as you try to escape. They also make your house more unsafe for kids and yourself (statistically).

    Arming yourself up defensively just doesn't do much. If they want you dead, they're gonna do it in a zero-casualty-for-them way. They can do that en masse, they can do that in rural or urban areas. They train for that 24/7. They love that.

    Arming yourself offensively, well that's something else. I don't know if that's what's being suggested when this issue comes up though.

  • They've done studies showing people who don't get physical touch often (or ever) spend more time in the shower, and like it hotter.

    I think about that a lot. Been over a year since I had sex, and almost a year since I had full body contact with someone. I think I'm not alone in that these days.
