Any favorite mod recommendations? Been thinking about getting a computer just powerful enough for modded Skyrim.




Clockwork.

I think it is more that going after drawn porn is often easier in a number of ways (eg, no sex workers complaining about the negative impacts of your "advocacy", fewer connections to networks of corruption, etc).

There's an absolutely fair argument "real porn is produced by real people and depicts genuine suffering" vs. words on a page.




That might be a fair argument, if fictional drawn porn didn't draw even more ire than live-action porn.

Always has been.  Feminism exists to elevate women over men, part of which involves permitting women to use their sexuality as power over men.  Constraining their sexuality to the privacy of their relationship is "oppressive" because their open display of their sexuality is a reminder of a grace they hold that men don't.

The experience isn't gendered, but the cultural narrative about it is.  Women are not criticized for failing to live up to their partner's unvoiced expectations to nearly the extent men are (EDIT:), largely as a consequence of men being expected to communicate directly and women being expected to communicate indirectly.

Ironically, the "communication issue" can be looked at a similar way as porn only with the genders reversed: women get a very confused one-sided view of how relationships work from media targeting their fantasies, one where the man always knows exactly what the woman wants and delivers without her having to communicate at all...

Which seems like a pretty good way of summing it up, although it doesn't fly in public.




We have no trouble saying that to male victims of DV if they so much as raise their voice against their female abuser.  It only doesn't fly in public when applied to the demographic that is only allowed to be viewed as a victim.

Yes, if a group of older girls doctored innocuous photos of a thirteen year old boy to be NSFW and started sharing them, this would be a bad thing and deserve to be punished. I am confident that you will not be able to find an example of this happening(you will, of course, be able to find examples of teenaged boys voluntarily sending NSFW content of themselves to young ladies who don't particularly want to receive any). The asymmetry of the sexes goes both ways. You can call be patronizing, but I'm not wrong.




A group of girls in my high school were literally sharing real pictures of me nude as a child, family photos taken by my parents when I was in preschool, laughing while making lewd comments about my penis every time they saw me.  They were never punished for it, nor were the pictures confiscated by teachers or other adults outside school.  I was told to just ignore their harassment.  "Sticks and stones will break my bones, but words [pictures] will never hurt me."  I can only imagine things have gotten worse now that digital images makes sharing so much easier.


Girls become sexually aware much earlier than boys, while they are still on-par with or even stronger than the boys, and sexually harass them mercilessly until the boys reach puberty and the trend reverses.  The vast majority of men and boys who sexually assault/harass women were themselves victimized as children.  Maybe if we took a little care for protecting them when they were vulnerable, they wouldn't lash out later in life.  Maybe, if we taught them by our protective actions of them that such behavior is wrong, they would believe us.  But no, we instead simply say "It's different" when women and girls do it to boys, tell them to treat women the same as men, and wonder why such victimized boys don't give a shit about victimizing girls in turn.

Isn't Black church attendance already significantly higher than white church attendance?

"Transform" implies change.  I think it is more accurate to say that it is simply more socially acceptable to be honest about such feelings with sperm donation and thus they are more open about it in that case.

I would still say that in C, under a few circumstances you can depend on a null pointer access crashing, e.g. if all of the following apply:




(5) Your compiler hasn't (ab)used the fact null pointer accesses are undefined behavior to "simplify" code in unexpected ways.


Eg, consider


int foo( int *p )
{
  if ( p ) function_with_side_effects();
  return *p < INT_MIN;
}



Since p is unconditionally dereferenced in the return statement which results in undefined behavior if p is null, the compiler is free to assume that it is never null and generate code that unconditionally calls function_with_side_effects() rather than inserting a branch as if ( p ) is only ever not true in the presence of undefined behavior.  That is, it can treat the code as if it were instead written as


int foo( int *p )
{
  function_with_side_effects();
  return *p < INT_MIN;
}



Depending on exactly what function_with_side_effects() does, that could result in a lot of unsafe outcomes even in "unprivileged user code that never handles untrusted data".  Even more fun, since *p < INT_MIN evaluates to 0 for all possible values of *p, the compiler can completely remove the dereference that you'd expect to cause a segfault, thereby treating the code as if it were written as


int foo( int *p )
{
  function_with_side_effects();
  return 0;
}

And the WEF considers women living approx 5 years longer than men to be "gender parity" in life expectancy.  I don't see why women have much right to complain about having to spend 30% of that extra time on earth pregnant to perpetuate the species given they still net approx 3.5 years over men.

I assume some of that is simply due to ease of access to children, but I don’t know if that’s the only factor. That said, most of the married guys seem to abuse girls, not boys, which would be less of an issue in an all-male Boy Scout troop.




There's also a disturbing number of moms pimping out their daughters to their partners to "sweeten the deal".

or get treated as one of the girls




No, you never get treated as "one of the girls".  Even if they don't reject you as a pervert, you will always be an outsider and treated with the associated distance.

What kind of standards, and what kind of intrusive nightmare would it be to require something like proof of fertility?




This seems rather trivial--create a "provisional marriage" that just signals intent and becomes a legal marriage upon birth of the couple's first child.  We already track births, so there would be no new privacy intrusion.

Numbers 1, 2, 4 and 5 are unobjectionable (curious if I'll hear the "ugh, every day is International Men's Day!" joke two weeks from today).




Number 1 is at least somewhat questionable, though I suppose not quite rising to "objectionable" given the low standards of such charities.

So two adults coordinating a child porn ring is acceptable as long as it's done in private? Might need to walk back your literally nothing claim here.




Yes.  Why wouldn't it be?  They'd still obviously be liable for creation/distribution/possession of the child porn itself so there's no need to crack down on mere "coordination" other than an authoritarian desire to sneak in more control over private speech in general.

Are you beetlejuice? Or do you, gattsuru and germ have some kind of discord group? I don't see how else you could find a 6 day old comment in a two week old thread, short of trolling my comment history or someone else doing so and reporting everything I write.




I don't have anything to say about the actual topic at hand, but I'll note that I usually browse the site via the comments feed and thus am not usually aware of the age of the "threads" the comments are in.  I also frequently take days if not weeks or months (or years on occasion...) to finish writing non-trivial responses to comments.  This combination naturally leads to exactly the behavior you're observing without the need of a discord group or trolling comment histories.  Text forums are asynchronous; not everyone will or even can respond immediately.  That doesn't mean they are stalking you.


EDIT: Grammar.

(The irony about the perfect woman being someone who is not aggressive is that he ended up married at age 56 to a lawyer. Maybe I'm stereotyping lawyers, but that seems like the aggressive type to me!)




His preference was probably "not aggressive [romantically/toward him]" rather than "not aggressive [in general]", given the combination of socially awkward and "dominated by his mother".

Right, but wasn't @CertainlyWorse arguing that debanking should be done via the courts specifically to ensure that it is only done to prevent specific harms as described by law rather than being left up to the whims of the banks and the social pressure others can exert on them?
