Tried the blocking communities. Unfortunately lemmy.world seems to have a sprawl of these that for individual kinks I guess.

I’m not complaining too much that it’s there. Just annoying that it pops up.

I didn’t block NSFW content to begin with because I thought there might be some gory stuff that I’m missing out on, but it turns out it’s all porn :D


Wish I could do this with instances. Personally don’t want to scroll all and see a load of porn from lemmy.world, blurred or not.


Sips! He has allot of YouTube subscribers but no so many twitch…

I wonder if there’s a third type too where a person has an extremely busy life and doesn’t have time or possibly doesn’t want an intimate relationship.

I don’t know if it’s “right” that this type of person pays for sex. I think it makes sense as long as they respect the person that they’re paying and understand this person does not ‘belong’ to them - but this last point appears to be a problem for people whenever they pay anyone for anything.


Always depends on the community/sub though. Niche subs specific to the subject will have good discussion. Big subs that tend to be a bit more generic content will have the generic subs.

I don’t think it’s a Lemmy/Reddit thing and more of a small/large community thing.


I wonder if it’s calling communists ‘commies’ that some may take offense to.

To my ear, this is sort of a slur in that I’ve only really ever heard it when some army guy is shouting ‘god damn commies’ or the like.

Just a disclaimer, I don’t have particularly strong feelings for either a communist or capatalist structure. I think shitty people tend to gather power so most of us are just taken advantage of in either scenario.


Okay, let’s say it is. So we can now consider all teenagers as adults. Great.

Nobody is going to say a 13 year old is mature enough to do most of the things we let 25 year olds do.

So whatever word you want to put to it. ‘adult’ ‘mature’ ‘flimbobblewob’, the point still stands that a 13 year old is different to a 25 year old.


Personally, I think most 20 year olds are mature enough to be called adults.

I don’t think a 13 year old is.

I agree with most of Europe that around 18 is a sufficient age.

So for me, 18 is the point where people are matute enough on average.

Your first comment suggests you think as soon as a person hits puberty they’re mature enough to be called adults. I’m not sure at this point if this is what you meant.


Okay. Let’s calm down. You can make your argument without calling it emotional words like ‘bullshit’. Talking emotionally makes others less likely to listen to your point. Funnily enough it also makes you appear less mentally mature 😉

Just because it’s a new idea doesn’t mean it’s wrong.

I’d also wager that the 'point of maturity ’ is a little high in the US, but not that all teenagers are mature enough to be called ‘adults’.


This and puberty takes time. It isn’t ‘puberty not started’ or ‘puberty done’. There’s also 'puberty on going ’ which takes a long time in most mammals.


I think the point is that things like impulse control improve as we get older. This continues to evolve.

‘Mature impulse control’ would be when the majority of people have reached a level that is acceptable for them to behave ‘responsibly’.

I’d argue there are teenagers that have already reached this level, and that there are many 30 year olds left to reach the level, but a best-fit age needs to be decided upon to avoid many with low impulse control being given too much responsibility.

I think I see your point, but I do feel there are aspects that stop this one from being true.



👍 I don’t like being “that guy” but with this one it makes the sentence not make sense.



Thinking on this, you should be able to take a screenshot and use the camera featiin Google translate. It translates text on images (inheritantly not highlightable) so you should be good.


I think Spotify and YouTube music still do this, you may need to turn notifications on for the app (so that the lock screen player can appear)


I also found these to work way more consistently than on screen fingerprint scanners.
