Seems so, but I don’t think your spelling is any better :D

Seems your text to speach app is shite if that’s how it sounded to you :p

I’m just trollin’, anyway I added a word so theres no more confusion.

I don’t want a detailed 3D rendering of balls showing up while scrolling in public

Speak for yourself

I am?

I’d prefer it that way as well (less to try and catagoize and no is it W or P gray zone to figure out), but I think nsfw has become so ubiquitous with porn that not many use it for other stuff. You either have to restablish the nsfw rules (and moderate) or create a new tag to fill in the gap.

I assumed it was some either some BS article telling us about a BS AI usb product …OR a BS audiophile article trying tell us how crosstalk from your usb cable will ruin the sound and we need a 800€ ultra high density thbtq insulated core USB 7.0 type Zed cable.

Apologies for the rant

We really need a thrid tag. (And NSFL to be a supported tag/filter feature like nsfw)

It should have been;

• NSFW = anything you wouldn’t wan’t your boss/coworker/stranger in public to see.
• NSFM = not safe for minors; in other words, porn.
• NSFL = gore, death, etc.

Theres no way anyone will agree to change nsfw now, so we’ll have to go for something else. I propose;

• NSFP = not safe for public. This is for things like “sexy pics”, dark, potty, or sex humor (pretty much all of C&H), and that “ball vasectamy switch” post from eailer. It’s a funny post, but personally I don’t want a detailed 3D rendering of balls showing up while scrolling in public.

Edits to include link to the ball post I referenced, and an example community that I belive would fall under my NSFP tag (Cyanide abd Happiness). https://lemm.ee/c/cyanideandhappiness Plus general spelling and grammar fixes as I find them.

You can edit titles on Lemmy, make say “BS journalists throwing google under the bus to get more ad revenue from google ads.”

The potential for misue is too great.

Security cams are not available to anyone - only the bar staff has (hopefully limited) access to the video. While everything is recorded, unless something happens you can be confident the video will end up deleted.

There’s a difference from being watched by some creep through the window and being watched by a dozen creeps wanking off to you in a basment.

It is theoreticaly possible, but praticaly speaking it would be near impossible.

To acomplish this, you need to get 51% of the population (who actually vote) to all vote for one person. However, with FPTP, you get one choice on the ballot. Is the average voter going to risk their vote on a 3rd party, or vote for who they belive to be the “lesser evil” of the two that have a shot at winning?

Even if you do manage to get 51%, there’s the electoral collage. Never forget, our democracy has built in the ability to overwrite the presidential vote.

Your first hurdle is getting any one to name an independent candidate.

Edit: adjusted some wording to be better.

Parents: you need to read lots of book in your free time to get smart and go to collage.

Me: I would like to attend university next year. I will pursue an education in literature to achieve my goal of becoming a published author.

Parents: you will not! There is no success as an author, I will not support you going to to school for such a waste.

Music streaming has proven this for years now, all the major brands have massive collections that make its super easy to pay and listen to just about anything.

Early Netflix proved this when everything was readily available for an affordable pricre.

Would a compromise be to simply archive them but not make them freely availible until they enter public domain.

For more current book; if they are out of print then they can be made availbe for limited loan, like any other digital library. If a digital copy is avalible for purchase from the original publisher/author, than its not fair game. Unless they come to an agreement, perhaps add supported for freely accessing a book otherwise available for purchase.

If they got rid of the download option, it would make it much more difficult to just use a DRM stripping tool (a friend told me about these terrible pirating tools, I certently don’t know how to use then). A lot of digital libraies have a dedicated app that you can only view content from. Utilize whatever anti-screen capture systems banks and Netflix use to protect from simply taking screen shots. Make is easier to access the books legitimatly than it is to pirate them.

Lastly, don’t just make everything freely availible next time there’s a world crisis.
