because it's middle school humor, and frankly it's rather misogynistic and rapey to be inserting digits into someone to "shock" them without their consent.

Congrats on being the first response in the top twenty or so comments to not reference politics or religion lol

oh wait you did in the second part, oh well you get a pass. this whole thread is "Wedding like conservatives" which, like, yeah i get it, I don't either, but it's really boring to read

talks about hope in English or Farsi?

 

I'm migrating away from lemm.ee and I want to open my Saved posts on lemm.ee, then open them on db0, and then save the posts on my db0 account.

But I can't figure out how to make the URL open via db0 instead of lemm.ee.

Any ideas? Thanks.

How does Reddit store IP addresses? I couldn't find a clear nor recent answer.

I recently saw a local community where commenters were getting subpoenas based on IP addresses. The post was >1 y/o by time of subpoena. Reddit of course complied and released IP addresses to the court.

But that makes me wonder: what if you moved house since making the comment? What if you moved INTO a place where the IP address was used by someone else to make the comment?? Is it based on your IP at time of commenting? Is it based on IP at time of logging in to that session? Or does the IP address of all my previous comments continuously update itself based on where I log in each time? What would appropriate VPN use look like when making potentially sensitive comments?

Thanks tech buds, LLL, bye

 

“The Olympics are a representation of the past,” D’Souza said. “They’re rooted in ancient Greece, and they have this amateurish, natural ethos that is run by a bunch of European aristocrats. The Enhanced Games are very different. They’re run by capitalists, who believe in the future, believe in science and technology.”

 

Ideally your answer is a sub that you are currently posting to but few others are posting to.

 

The more I think about it, the more I feel like people seem to have some level of desire to see "THE END". Call it morbid curiosity. Call it nihilism. Call it death anxiety. Whatever. It seems like with all the effort people give to thinking about "the downfall", there must be some fascination with it.

There's so many forms of it. Doomsday preppers. Prophetic apocalypses. Global warfare. Climate disasters. The rise of fascism. People see "THE END" in so many different ways. And with the world not becoming any less precarious any time soon, we can only expect these mass-anxities to continue. (And the rich guys certainly have a vested interest in the end of everything. They get to keep their High Score.)

Or maybe not. Maybe human civilization (in at least some form) will continue for millennia more. Maybe we're far off from the end. But one thing is certain: for each and every one of us walking this earth, the end is at most a century away, give or take a few decades.

"How grand would it be to witness the end of everything!" cries the mortal pretender. For it is not just his death, but the death of all that he knows -- and he gets to bear witness.

 

I'm losing my will to fight. You're losing your will to fight. In the last few weeks, you've been nothing but despair. I am trying to hold it together so I can keep up the fight. But it's been getting harder. All the levity has been lost. I guess I got more levity from you than I realized. I don't know how I became so dependent on you. Isolation has become the norm for us, I guess. But right now, all I know is that I can't do this without you. You've gotta stay strong, and stay light. So that I can stay strong, and stay light.

Yes, you. The faceless mass.

 
 

[Resolved, thanks!]

Weird, but I just got two copyright notices from my ISP. I always use a paid VPN (Proton). How'd they see me?

I did accidentally open qBitTorrent before connecting to the VPN yesterday, but immediately exited the program before anything loaded. Is that enough time to get two strikes? One was for seeding TNG S03 and the other for TNG S05 lol.

What confuses me is that that happened yesterday, but the email lists the day prior as the time of offense.

So I guess it's time to set up a kill switch or make sure the qBitTorrent wont open without Proton connected. If anyone has a guide for that send a link my way.... thanks.
