So when people are talking about the state of the world and censorship you think it is about not having porn exactly everywhere? Dude, let some blood back into your big boy brain once in a while.

Yep, you have the tiniest dick in the world and it makes screeching noises for never having been wet. We get it. You need the porn. Hugs bud.

Go talk about gaping assholes with your mum for reference. Maybe she’s into it, I don’t know. But if that is a normal convo in your family, well… I have some bad news for you.

Totally. There is a post about the instance. Even the most deranged by the deluge of hormones should be able to figure out how to proceed from there.

Yep. It’s not about policing or moralising but that this is getting out of hand with spamming of all the porn communities that of course are super important for their creators.

I don’t have an account there and I have no interest in arguing with people that live with porn 24/7 why the rest of us aren’t prudes for wanting to be able to scroll through social media without being bombarded with porn. Again, I don’t mind porn, but it doesn’t have to be everywhere and all the time.

There are addons for Firefox and other browsers too to clean out all the unwanted junk on Facebook. When I go on Facebook now it shows almost exclusively stuff that people I know have posted and groups that I follow. SocialFocus is one of them. Try it, it makes a huge difference.

That is true. For some reason it dropped out of my mind to block the entire domain, despite being a power user.

Still, I don’t think it needs to be standard procedure to announce every fringe porn community. As stated above, the audience will find it. And it is unnecessary for new people to the Fediverse getting the impression that this is what it is all about.

I suggest a live in peace treaty with porn instances. Do your thing, I really don’t care. Let people subscribe to whatever communities where they are federated. Again, I really do not care. But please block the instances dedicated to porn from posting anywhere else. There is really no benefit to it except the weirdos that not separate their porn addiction from regular social context.

Because for normal people there is a subtle difference scrolling past single announcements for communities about gardening and games vs gaping assholes and huge dicks and especially when you get tens of the latter in sequence.

Not everybody is a porn brain gooner.

I’m just speculating, but maybe the owner is in a different country? Not everything is America and even the EU varies somewhat in laws and regulations. Then there is the entire rest of world. And finally different people have their individual morals and stances and what risks they are willing to take for others. Regardless I don’t see any need to bash anybody else over this. Just switch to an instance by your own preference and be done with it. If it is really that important; run an instance of your own, private or public, and deal with it yourself.

Now that is what I call a sticky situation

This trick used to be €200.

But you can have it now for €20.

This is someone with a fetish to be gross and get attention for it. Just block them and move on. No need to feed their kink.

It is used where it is applicable. For regular web pages it is overkill that only complicates everything with no gain at all.

That is me putting it in embellished words of amusement instead of saying that the software ran numbers through the dongle if it was present so that the logic on the dongle would correct it but if it was not present it would allow the run and save except the altered numbers would have a unnoticeably tiny miscalculation that would accumulate over the numerous edits and saves during the project duration.

Because I assumed that people would put it together themselves. Which apparently most people did. But some people still need everything spelled out for them. Ironically those that credit themselves more intelligent than everybody else.

Welp, I heard the story back in the mid nineties from someone that worked in an architect office. One save or a few without a dongle makes basically no difference but systematic license abuse will make you have to spend man hours to redraw the entire thing before delivering it to the customer. Considering how absolutely hysterical some corporate anti piracy measures were at the time I would not say it is not unbelievable, this being very early internet era and all.

I recall some other corporate oriented software that would after some time only print blank pages without explanation if it detected a crack, there were a few console games that would corrupt your entire memory card with all your saves from everything, and music software and VSTs that would spread a cracked warez version to “the scene” that would have a trojan do other nasty things to your computer as a pre-emptive revenge.

But you do you and have all the smarts. Who knows, I’m probably AI too.

I’d imagine they got a lot of furious calls that turned into embarassment fast.

I think it was AutoCAD that had the most diabolical dongle of all. Some ancient version of the software would seemingly work without the dongle, leading cheap offices buying less licences than installs and plenty of architects installing them on their home computers. Everything seems to work fine, except every save a tiny fraction of a decimal far far away is off. Way too small for anyone to notice. Until they have been working for weeks and months on a project. And then and only then do they realize that all the lines have been slowly drifting apart.

Register on a different instance and filter everything ml. It’s a life changer with the Fediverse.

This was during the sourdough fad ten years ago in Södermalm/Stockholm, the epicenter of Swedish hipsterdom.
