Aargh.

Excellent point, I agree.
I mean that’s sort of what I mean. I don’t always hold myself to my standards.
For example I’m a tree loving hippie, but I have a ICE car (luckily its currently broken). I had to get one for work, I needed to get parts during the work day etc. I would have bought a EV, had I had the money for one. But anyway, having that car there, if I had cravings for some potato chips in the middle of the night, every now and then I’d hop in and pop to the shops. Not saying that was a weekly thing, but a few times a year I’d do that.
But I’m not gonna start hating myself because of that. As long as its a rare thing, its fine. Or perhaps my principle is “do your best, don’t be too harsh on yourself.”
I came across this quote recently: “We dont need a hanful of people doing zero waste perfectly. We need millions of people doing it imperfectly.” - Anne Marie Bonneau
Yes but also no. I’ve come to the conclusion that being too extreme is just stupid. You always need a little bit of wiggle room.


If they complain, you should just say “you lost, get over it” I’m sure they’ll understand, I hear they are very friendly and hospitable.


Not sure how helpful this is, but where I’m from, we often use “Jenkki” - Yank, when talking about you guys :D I know it has different meaning over there, here its sort of a neutral word. At least in my mind.
Its also a brand name of the most popular chewing gum, haha


Agreed. I was making a tongue in cheek comment about the absurdity of this whole thing. In my opinion, the parents are more responsible than the porn sites, but no one should be punished because young Peter managed to see a boob.


I really should remember to put a huge “THIS IS NOT A VERY SERIOUS COMMENT” on most of my comments. I find I’m way too snarky for text based communication.
Anyways. I’m not saying parents should be punished because their kid managed to watch porn. I was just making a joke about how stupid everything is.
I didn’t grow up with routers and android phones. My equivalent of breaking into the router and changing the password was to climb into the paper recycling container to find Donald Duck comics but ending up finding porno mags.
The fact is, kids are always going to find porn. There’s just no way around it. If they put ID proof protections on the websites, they just gonna figure out torrents or some other way of downloading stuff.


Been dealing with depression and anxiety for a couple of decades, sort of successfully. Couple of years ago got told I had cancer, a week after that my girlfriend broke up with me after a 7 year relationship, couple of weeks after that I got told that the garage space I was renting for extremely cheap was sold and I had to find a new place. Found a new place, got surgery on the cancer, had a few months of recovery, went back to work, rent was now 4 times more, while I was doing the move and dealing with the cancer my customers found new places. I ended up with not enough customers, couldn’t pay the rent, had to close shop. Now I’m even more depressed, out of money and I have no idea what to do, how to get out of this hole. Most of the solutions I’ve come up with are on the darker side but as for now, I’m still being too stubborn to quit things. I have a feeling that I’ll reevaluate the situation when autumn arrives.
But hey, at least the cancer is gone.


TIL theres a paid version of Bitwarden.


I wonder why the EU didn’t find the parents of the kids to be in breach of whatever relevant child “protection” laws there are? I guess they are okay with the porn websites raising the kids. Maybe the EU can make PornHub to start a chain of day care centers?


I don’t think they do that any longer.
I wouldn’t know. I haven’t really listened to (music) radio since I realized audiobooks and podcasts were a thing, about 15-20 years ago :D
Oh right, I forgot about that. The theme (or whatever its called) that I use doesn’t show the separate numbers, unless I put my mouse over the average number.
But like I said, don’t worry about it too much. And I echo the other guy who said that you may have some weirdo following you and downvoting you, just wait it out. Maybe make a new account to get rid of them or whatever.
If it were me, I wouldn’t care about such stuff.
For me it shows a the most recent comment at +2, then a bunch that are at 0, then one that is at +5 and only then there’s some that are in the negatives.
But anyways, I wouldn’t worry too much about them. People are strange. They downvote for strange reasons. Seems to me that you didn’t say anything controversial.


I had a bunch of c-cassettes where every song started with the radio DJ talking over the intro and ended with the radio DJ or a commercial starting to play over it. Thank god for cd-r, that cassette thing didn’t last too long. It was pretty annoying to wait 40-60minutes for the song you wanted to start playing and often it would be ruined by the radio DJ talking endlessly over it.


It is, you can download a boat.
Probably.


Thirding Mr Inbetween. Very good and kind of a fresh take on the topic. I’ve watched it a couple times already. Wish they would have made more but at the same time it ended up very well.


Sure looks like that’s what we are doing
Well that doesn’t sound at all friendly and hospitable!
