Yes I’m also the same way with ads. I’d happily spend more for internet if there was somehow an “ad surcharge” that would mean I’d never see ads or be tracked. Let me pay whatever the advertisers pay.

It’s too big. I couldn’t get a phone the same size as my old one without sacrificing the micro sd slot so I ended up with something bigger than ideal
Well I’ll have to look it up now, but I see it as a substance produced by the body that isn’t made of cells itself. Like any of the other excretions and things the body makes.
Edit: apparently both your nails and hair are mostly made of keratin, but keratin isn’t produced and excreted to produce the nail and hair structures like a playdough factory like I imagined. Special cells are produced that are primarily keratin and they are added to like a chain and die/harden as they are pushed out from the body.
Wait, I thought hair was made of keratin like nails. It’s made of cells?
That box art and the art in the booklet included in the case (and the art behind the discs) for FFVII is so good
Subverting the fact that Sesame Street teaches accurate things?
The individual person is being forced to pay taxes because they were born in a certain region of the world?
I’m actually not seeing what’s weird about it. They are using and benefiting from the infrastructure that is paid for by those taxes, and pooling the resources this way allows the whole community you benefit in ways that can’t be done otherwise. The extension of this is that if you are able to pitch in but don’t then you’re essentially “stealing” from the rest of the population.
I’m not well versed in the subtleties of a libertarian system; in a libertarian community, what’s done with people who try to benefit from what others are doing without pitching in?

That’s a pretty controversial take. I don’t think anyone would call 5am “night” if they woke up at that time, but just really early morning. Same with 11pm being evening is more to do if weather you’re still awake or not. These are fuzzy definitions that are more about vibes than precisely what the clock says.
Same with the seasons really. There’s the definition you’ve given, and then there’s the one that’s more about the seasonal differences in the region. Winter where I live for example starts in November (probably around Remembrance day if I were to pin it down). It’s silly too wait until the solstice to consider it winter when there’s been over a month of snow on the ground and freezing temps.
I will anecdotally observe anal sex, oral sex, and facials have gone up between partners as prevalence in porn has gone up. That suggests but does not prove a direct statistical harm caused by even "ethically produced CSAM
Can we look at trends between consenting adults (who are likely watching porn of real people by the way) as an indicator of what pedophiles will do? I’m not so sure. It’s not like step sibling sex is suddenly through the roof now with it being the “trend” in porn.
Looking specifically at fake rape porn maybe and seeing if it increases rates of rape in the real world might be a better indicator.
It’s learning over time, with proficiency being the area under the line. It’s describing having to learn a lot to achieve the same proficiency compared to something with a shallow learning curve.
When I’m packing sandwiches I’ll keep the tomato and pickle separate for just this reason
Yeah, that does tend to be the answer doesn’t it
Poor guy with the spray paint realizing it was supposed to be a 6
I’ve often wondered how that ever came to be. My best guess is otherwise people would just use it as an excuse? “No officer, I wasn’t in the bushes pleasuring myself I was just going pee”
I’d argue they risk losing users who post links to their videos online. It’s likely the same group who tend to use ad blockers are also the ones more likely to link a video online, so YouTube would miss out on all the non-adblock users clicking links and watching the videos that way.
Probably why this scam works so well. It’s like how the bad spelling etc in phishing helps to weed out the less susceptible people so they don’t waste their time.
If you’re already falling for the Musk bullshit, then you’re a prime target.
At this rate, at the next Olympics they’ll be in -10.5 place!
Plus, any place that sells glasses will take that pupil measurement so get your prescription and shop around. I personally like Costco, but if you are comfortable with doing your own pupil measurement you can order glasses quite cheap online.
I already do. I also want to pay my way.
The problem is what I’d like doesn’t exist (I’m not going to subscribe you a million different websites and still not even be ad free) and probably can’t. How much do all the ads I’m blocking cost? It’d be ripe for abuse but I’d essentially like a taxi meter, but it would charge me for website use from just one central account that I top up or is part of my internet bill or whatever.
I want the whole business model of using ads and tracking to pay for the internet to not exist.
