  • Doesn't armed IRS agents come to your house and shoot you?

    That's the horror story we were all told growing up: "Never be late on your taxes or the taxman will bring the god of death!" -Mom

    Should we ban porn?

    Jump
  • If you want to live in a country that banned porn, feel free to move to People's Republic of China.

    (Or I guess Taliban-Controlled Afghanistan is also a good choice)

  • Curious, do you disable biometrics when you sleep?

    I make sure to disabke biometrics (triggering the power menu in iOS or using "Lockdown" in power menu on Android, these disable biometrics) before I go to sleep...

    Don't want someone to try to unlock my phone while I sleep lmao. (I live with family)

    I mean I sometimes reboot it so its in BFU mode as well...

  • Sex is not a big part of relationships in some cultures, particulary those with a tendency of arranged marriages.

    They just view each other like a sort of an inseparable lifetime friend more than a sex object

  • 900000 have more than 1 house

    Careful there bud, Lemmy is gonna start doxxing them and bringing guillotines

  • I'm not gonna just willy nilly block people... already too low userbase, I kinda wanna just see the drama

    Like even that user asking weird age gap questions is part of the entertainment lol

    But if they start being overtly toxic... yea I'm just gonna block and ignore

  • I mean at that point, you might as well as use a password manager... which then you can more easily back up the database... 🤷‍♂️ I mean are you really gonna take a picture every time you update it? Not very steamlined...

  • It's a fun toy to play with... but ffs keep it away from actually being used irl for serious purposes... these are not trustworthy at least not in this stage, LLMs are just public beta testing...

    (Also the increse in demand in ram usage and the resulting rise in cost of consumer electronics is cringe af)

    Privacy wise... yea don't plan a revolt or confess your crimes on there, unless you have an offline LLM...

  • I remember when I was in China, didn't even have internet.

    My parents bought me a children's book about planets and stuff... I still remember it called 十万个为什么 (Literally: 100 Thousand Whys)

    I was so intrigued.

    I remember I had not much things to read and I kept reading that over and over again. I remember still having it when I was in 2nd grade in the US... like that's my last "artifact" of my pre-US life...

    I remember just putting it in my bookbag and bringing it to school cuz... idk why... maybe I just felt nostalgic about it and thought it'd be cool to bring a book nobody else in the school would be able to read... sort of like a special ancient text made for me xD

    Sadly the binding on that book is garbage and it fell apart and I no longer have that book...

    (I don't remember NASA being mentioned btw)

    Later I remember constantly googling space stuff once we had internet access at home...

    I think its:

    1. Childhood... like space is a big concept... so it feels like this "big thing" and I get obsessed about it... like many kids probably do. You go from being in a tiny apartment at home to suddenly knowing about very big empty space... Mind Blowing...
    2. Humanity already been on the moon... meh... not that exciting... especially not after a few decades and interests fade... like omg someone sailed across the ocean... boo boring... already done...
  • Lol tankie loser tells me I have no right to exist and then goes label someoneas a far right for

    checks notes

    Not supporting red fascism...

  • I wanted to archive every movie, tv show, anime, game, like everything...

    But that's gonna cost too many hard drives and brain capacity to do the downloading, organizing, checksums to make sure they don't get corrupted... etc... its gonna cost too much money and my sanity just to keep up with it...

    So yea I kinda gave up on it and hope there is always a copy "out there somewhere" when I need it...

    I only backup photos, writings, and that stuff, much smaller files, easier to manage...

  • OMG MORTY YOU HAVE TO LOOK! I SWEAR, I'D NEVER JOKE ABOUT SOMETHING LIKE THIS!

  • You mean: How do I feel about a bunch of weirdos supporting a regime that have tried to terminate my existence via the enforcement of One Child Policy? (I was the 2nd child born in my family)

    Idk... am I supposed to like people that believes its for the greater good for me to have been aborted because "bUt tHe oVeRpOpUlAtIoN"...?

    I mean, I very much like breathing and watching movies, tv shows, anime, and I'm glad I've been able to play fun games like FTL... so I'm not too keen on the government that catergorically rejected my right to exist... and I don't really like those uninformed weirdos that thinks somehow CCP taking control of their country is gonna magically solve problems... like lmao, lets see these porn-addicted people try watching porn in China... (porn is illegal)

  • But honey, do you still want me to bake the cake you asked to do or no?

    (the cake is a lie, its filled with polonium...)

  • Welp I'll have to do it for them like... right now... I'm eating breakfast rn and mom's keep nagging me to like hurry up and do the taxes...

    I mean too bad, her house her rules... 🤷‍♂️ I dealing with depression and am a dependent so I have no choice but to do whatever they ask

  • I have r/AsianParentStories syndrone :(

  • Yeah... I don't trust notebooks...

    My grandma sometimes forgets to turn off the stove... the notebook becoming ashes is an inevitability... (house on fire)

    1 Notebook = 0 Notebook

  • If I were to join something like this, mom would immediately scold me for dragging down the family into trouble.

    Funnily enough, everyone in their social circle seems to be perfectly fine with joining Pro- Asian-Rights protests in the US... wonder why... 🤔
