Hmm. Driving porn viewers who value their privacy underground couldn't possibly have any negative consequences I can think of.
One of us!
Linux uh... Finds a way.
Crawl out through the fallout baby.
I have it working on Debian, it wasn't THAT hard, but I never got it to work with the GPU so it was SUPER slow. I've since found XTTS2 which set up super easy, comes with a web GUI and just supports my GPU out of the box.
I do remember some posts on r/sex back in the day that were absolutely kids (teens) and you could tell by how
- Freaked out they were about totally normal stuff.
- Excited they were about how great sex is.
I remember there was a funny day when there were two top upvoted posts on r/sex (probably in like 2017) where one was like
- It turns me on when my boyfriend masturbates to me, am I normal?
And the other one was like
- I (female bodied, they/them / nb) am a furry and my wife and I like to pretend that I'm a wolf and I'm hunting and eating her. What can we make that will look and feel like real organs I can "rip" out of her stomach and eat, and what could we use for fake blood that would be the easiest to clean up?
People kept linking the second one in the first one and reassuring this poor girl that she's totally normal.
Honestly, sometimes when I can't sleep, watching eSports helps (especially Starcraft II). IDK why, but put on a super chill caster like Wardii and I'm out in 20 minutes.
Having some loud, disruptive ad punch through my ad blocker and try to tell me about Liberty Mutual when I've almost dozed off is close to the most rage inducing experience imaginable. With Youtube now working to inject adds directly into video streams, I'm actually anxious about the future of my best sleep aid.
It's probably less about telling off the UN and more about sound bites / video clips that will play well with his bosses and their political base back home.
Historically, right wing isolationist ideologues of all nationalities seem to cheer and double down when faced with international criticism. They know it's them and their beliefs against the world and they have a fantasy that they can win, right up until an overwhelming number of them die for it.
Israel as a nation is not in a mood for self reflection and definitely doesn't want to understand the hole their digging themselves into.
I spent 10 years LARPing with kids professionally. Age may be "irrelevant", but kids imaginations are special.
This meme reminds me of two very specific incidents.
-
We're running an adventure about zombies. A coworker has a group of six year olds. One of them is late getting picked up and we're all hanging out together sword fighting with this kid pretending to be zombies. When the kid's mom finally shows up, he runs up to my coworker, gives her a huge hug and says "I love zombies!"

I'm running a group of 8-10 year olds and they're traveling to a big "good aligned" city in a big "good aligned" kingdom. One of them randomly decides to bust into a farm house, tie up the family, load them into their own donky cart, drive them into the city, haul them out in the center of the town square and start shouting "Slaves! Slaves for sale! Get your slaves here!" At every step of the way, I keep asking the rest of the group if they're going to do anything about this and they don't care. So the city watch shows up, overwhelms the party, claps them in irons and they spend the night in jail. When they're dragged before the magistrate the next day, the rest of the party is indignant, protesting "Why are we in trouble?? We didn't do anything!" I took great relish in (playing as the magistrate) squinting at them, nodding my head and saying "That... is why you are in trouble!"
Yep.
I have an old Google account from like 2012 that was a spam trap account I made back when you could easily sign up anonymously for gmail over Tor. It will not let me log into it anymore unless I connect a phone number to it. It hems and haws about how this is "for your protection" but really it's pretty simple that your activity has no value to Google unless they can tie it to your identity and connect it to other activity and then bundle that and sell it to advertisers. (And fuck you Google, I'm not protecting that account from anyone except you... hackers are WELCOME to know I types a throwaway email into some online medical insurance shit...)
In fact, if you don't want companies to collect your data, you're more and more locked out of any app, service or platform that asks for a verified email. I've encountered things recently that won't accept protonmail emails (and invite you to use OAuth to sign in with Google, Facebook, LinkedIn or Twitter, fuck that noise).
I actually imagine that OAuth locked to a major provider FOR EVERYTHING is the future those guys would all like to see.
