en.wikipedia.org/…/List_of_languages_by_number_of…
This list estimates native French and English speakers are approximately the same amount as of 2024
I knew Russian was gonna be the largest but I’m surprised German was higher than French and English, and didn’t know French and English were approximately neck and neck

the impression I get is that they’re pretending not to understand, but they do, they just don’t give a flying fuck what other people think of them because everyone keeps buying their cheese, wine, and fashion so they’re busy counting money, getting laid, and smoking like chimneys lol

hehehehe I love fake tree/cactus disguises for equipment. If they ever figure out how to make hyper-realistic ones, I hope they use the comically fake-looking ones instead, because they’re way funnier

I mean it is true though, I know from firsthand experience. So it’s additional evidence that the poster is full of shit and made this up as a weird fantasy where they get to be clever and also objectify women lol

- Comment on Library Apps are GOATed 1 month ago:
I used to check out CD-ROM games from my library all the time as a kid. Most of them were designed to only be run while the disk was in the tray and I was 6 and hadn’t learned piracy yet lol
Most modern PCs lack an optical drive and even considering externals exist, I don’t think there are many PC game publishers that do physical releases these days :( so it’s kind of a big ask for a library to maintain a stock of retro computing disks, many of which are now really valuable
that being said, book publishers have been granting lendable ebook licenses for years. if they figured it out, game publishers could. but there’s no profit motive for it like there is for selling licenses to libraries since PC gaming doesn’t have a hundreds of years old lending model culture :(

the thing is you gotta draw the adulthood line somewhere and just let young adults have sexual autonomy
OP may or may not be having a healthy relationship that they may or may not regret later but they’re well within their right to point out that that’s nobody’s business but their own and they shouldn’t be getting unsolicited judgment for it

so you’re saying there’s a chance that if we ever encounter aliens, they might compliment us on our sick space yeet?

I know that thing definitely got some fancy physics flavor of fucking vaporized, but in my heart it’s out in space just still zooming at breakneck fuckin speed as a testament to human engineering hubris

oh yeah my point was that things that can’t really be done IRL because of physical/legal/ethical limitations tend to be “overrepresented” (the amount of material seems to me to be more prevalent than the number of people that seem to be into it) as a function of the fact that such things can’t be performed IRL therefore virtual spaces are the only outlet
whereas you can go to a bdsm club and hit people IRL, so the internet is only one of at least two valid outlets for expressing it
the amount of porn featuring impact play never seemed to me to be overrepresented on the internet, but now that I’m thinking about it I’m a pretty biased person to be evaluating that, because I’ve been in the bdsm community most of my adult life lol

I remember reading about that in high school and thinking, “at least he found a consenting victim, or something…?”
