Counter point: many people get random tattoos that surely carry no meaning. Some tattoo parlors have quarter prize machines, where you get whatever tattoo comes out of it.

Plenty of people get tattoos without any thought towards the consequences. Thats why tattoo cover ups and removals are also a thing.

I sometimes make jokes about Nazis fleeing to Argentina but I really dont know much about the country’s culture.

The story says this happened in Argentina.

You won’t be able to tell if Claude is giving you good answers or not. You’d have to have someone who knows about this stuff check it for you, but at that point you should just have that person help you.

The water here comes out super cold from the hose too, that sounds like a fantastic way to keep cool!

Sounds slightly pyramid shaped.

Linux doesn’t even require installation, they use LiveCDs that you can use as temporary OS’s. They are also used to permanently install them if you’d like to do that.

There’s a guy at my local library that brings his own OS to use on the public computers, and just saves stuff on removable storage.

Shitty rich people have sued most public schools into absurd levels of restriction. Its a nightmare when idiots are allowed to pay to be told they are legally correct by another idiot in a black robe.

He cited an American visiting the UK as an example of an American learning about Europe. I simply disagree that you can learn much about Europe from visiting the UK.

They seem like quite the outlier then if you really insist on including them.

If its just a geographic thing you mean, then sure its in Europe.

The UK is not Europe, as I’m sure you know about the whole brexit thing.

Its not that serious my guy.

That description is your perspective, which says a lot about you.

You also haven’t denied that you dislike women in general, or that you are for people driving drunk.

Feel free to set the record straight if youd like.

Its funny, the words you wrote made people think that.

Their posts reads like drinking used to be accepted and okay but now its not accepted but still okay. Also, it was women that ruined it for us. This is some bullshit Charlie Kirk level of dishonest debate.

I think you raise a fair point, can you participate in social media without affecting others in a negative way? My guess is scale is a big issue. If social media was just our neighbors together in a forum using technology to improve our communication, that would be a positive overall I’d think.

Tools aren’t really bad on their own, it depends how we choose to use them and what goals we try to achieve with them.

Being an addict isn’t illegal, possessing illegal drugs is. Plenty of legal ways to be an addict if you insist though.

If we actually cared about society in general, we would behave differently. This is a result of the fuck-you-get-mine mentality that thrives in America. There are plenty of people here that don’t care about their neighbors, at all.

You only see outrage come from people affected firsthand, because everyone else thinks they are too smart/rich/successful to possibly fall victim to the same systems as the stupid/poor/lazy people.

You bring up a great point about focusing on youtube and letting roblox slide right by. Plenty of parents made that mistake, but the truth is that almost no online platform is safe for children to meet strangers in.

I’m not sure what the best way to restrict access to adults only is though, but it does seem the current attempt is the best we’ve come up with so far. Its incredibly invasive, and I simply won’t use products that require age verification, so I’m hoping this leads to a better solution. Perhaps another country will figure out an idea and we can copy it.

I think its well known its addictive for everyone, but profit and convenience are the most important things to Americans, so here we are.

For children yes, and when it affects others safety like with drunk driving. If an adult wants to fuck off in the woods and become an addict, thats entirely acceptable. Apparently some adults think that when we protect vulnerable people that we are taking their freedoms away.
