im not pushing anything on anyone?? this is my opinion and i am allowed to have it, i’m not making any laws. i also agree with the other commenter that there’s no way a relationship between a 30 year old and an 18 year old doesn’t have an unbalanced maturity and power level dynamic. this is my opinion.

huh? it is literally exactly for word what i said, so what are you talking about??

“most hopefully they weren’t irresponsible enough to date a teen, that’d be just as yuck no matter the gender”

also, how am i lecturing you?? i dont even know you or anything about you. you replied to me calling my opinion dismissive and i disagreed, point out the lecturing. and anyway, why is there an issue with how i choose to express my opinion on something controversial, or anything in that matter? you find it dismissive that i think middle aged people dating legal teenagers is gross, okay, why should i care that how i expressed it is apparently dismissive??

i dont get how calling someone that age dating a teen ‘yuck’ is dismissive lol

true, i made an assumption. either way, its yuck to date someone fresh out of HS if you’re 10, 20, 30, 40+ years older. imo there’s no reality where an 18 year old should be dating a 30 year old, even though it is legal

most hopefully they weren’t irresponsible enough to date a teen, that’d be just as yuck no matter the gender

god i wish most men were like this. but there’s 50 yr old men out there dating women fresh out of highschool, yuck

this is gonna go nowhere per usual, but still, the very idea of working in your dreams is fucking horrifying. black mirror type shit.

huh? astral projection real? 🤨

they keep it to themselves to remain on top. empress also accepts donations, even going so far as to refuse to crack a game unless she receives a certain amount of money like $500.

she doesn’t release info because then she won’t be needed, and therefore won’t receive money for something that many crackers can do

maybe is a bit out of their league, but there is absolutely nothing wrong with asking and getting started that way. you don’t magically know what to do, asking can help you gather the steps required.

there is never anything wrong with asking and learning

i started learning it bc i was told it was easy, and it was, but i switched to JS because I had no practical uses for python, but i can say it did help me understand JS better

it’s bad. he will steamroll the fediverse, make everyone want to go to his platform (“look at the features we have that they don’t! its ok tho, we still federate with them, so come here!”) and once he gets the majority of people there, which he honestly already has, he will defederate from everyone. he will once again go back to being a centralized platform, killing a large portion of the fediverse along with it.

that guy’s entire account is dedicated to sucking spez and reddit’s asshole, dont mind him

welcome to kbin, sorry to hear about the happenings at your homebase

yes, you can. you only need to sign up for one instance, thats your “home base” and you can see everything from everywhere else from it. it’s like you can make a gmail account and still email ymail, yahoo, outlook, whatever else

yes

i thought lemmy had like 250k+ (?) in total and then kbin.social has like 40-45k

i cant tell if youre genuinely unaware or joking but either way its hilarious

i am not able to simply paste images through the clipboard, im forced to open file explorer. nothing happens if i try to paste.

however, this extension works fine (restart firefox after installing and enabling ‘dom.events.asyncClipboard.clipboardItem’ in about:config): https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/clipboard2file/

about the defederation, this comment about it is great: https://kbin.social/m/main@sh.itjust.works/t/22433/Beehaw-defederated-us#entry-comment-90015

"I think it’s easy to take this personally but I think it’s more about the moderation tools in Lemmy not being adequate at the moment so this is the best bandaid solution for now. We need to quickly put effort into developing better moderation tools like limiting other servers without fully defederating, limiting specific communities, forcing nsfw on communities/instances, proxying reports to origin servers so admins have better feedback on their instance user’s bad behavior, and many other things if we want to prevent defederating like this from being the only option.

I think infighting about this decision and differing moderation styles instead of focusing together on moderation challenges and tooling deficiencies risks tearing the community / federation apart and is counterproductive to the goal of being better than reddit."

there will be growing pains.
