  Talk to them about death, gore, and sex.

  Explain to them that these things are not appropriate and could negatively affect their mental health.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨How would you safely and privately child-proof a PC?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  Do you really want to watch them jerk off in the living room?

  Be a better parent, give them some privacy

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨How would you safely and privately child-proof a PC?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  If you lie to your child, they will distrust you forever.

  Don’t be an asshole to your family.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨How would you safely and privately child-proof a PC?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  Don’t censor. Talk to your child.

  Why shame him?

  Sorry sir, we don’t deal electronics. This is a sex shop.

  Woah, thanks for the tip on where to buy mushrooms

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨People who get "happy ending" massages, is there like a common keyword or process?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  About half the time it ends with a happy ending attempt.

  Wait, what?

  You tell us: what is that like. How do they offer? Is it verbal? What do they say or do?

  No, don’t add anchovies. For God’s sake

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨How do I turn fresh tomatoes into pasta sauce?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  That’s how you get orange tomato sauce

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨How do I turn fresh tomatoes into pasta sauce?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  Huh, I usually don’t add tomato paste until the very end. Else it burns on the bottom of the pan

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Does the USA have gifted schools or was Spider-Man Homecoming lying?⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  They’re not for geniuses. They do exist. They’re called magnet schools.

  Basically it’s for people who actually want to learn

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Does the USA have gifted schools or was Spider-Man Homecoming lying?⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Yes. I went to a magnet school.

  This school had both normal classes and magnet classes.

  I was very intimidated by the magnet classes, so I never applied until my last year. When I did get into the smart classes, I realized they weren’t necessarily more difficult. The biggest difference was that the kids who didn’t want to be there and constantly distracted the class were absent, so we were able to get more done every day.

  I was pissed that I wasn’t in those classes sooner.

  ADL and Southern Poverty Law Center has some lists, iirc. Also useful for identifying hate symbols.

  Native is fine in North America, but offensive in South America. Better to use Indigenous

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨How hopeless is getting a job with a CS degree?⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  The world isn’t monolithic. Some companies will take decades. Some companies have already realized the harm and have started fixing now

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨How hopeless is getting a job with a CS degree?⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  I’d say just get a partime internship during Uni, not before.

  Or volunteer with some open source project

  If you graduate with 4-5 years of experience, you’ll be head and shoulders above your peers in the interviews

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨How hopeless is getting a job with a CS degree?⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  The AI wave is creating a huge amount of tech debt

  There’s going to be a huge surge of hiring humans to untangle and fix the spaghetti code in coming years.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨AI applied to hardening systems might cause US intelligence agencies to lose a large portion of their surveillance capabilities.⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  I do see a problem in people deferring their opsec decisions to AI systems run by corporations in the US.

  That’s like lazy copy-paste-into-your-terminal-as-root, but from an NSA honeypot website that installs a backdoor

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨is it weird to have your own religious beliefs system⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Emma Goldman said that 80% of people are followers

  You’re not weird. You’re just not a follower like the vast majority.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Would a disk shaped planet have uniform gravity like earth or would it vary depending on whether you're near the center or edges?⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Is it more or less at the equator? And does altitude affect it?

  And now it’s just chrome like almost all other web browsers

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Is there a point to the Straight Of Hormuz? What is the difference between the Iranians having it than the US? What does it mean for the average joe in either country?⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Lol wut. Controlling supply lines is literally a militant strategy.

  Yes, Iran can defeat the US militarily in the mode east. Just like how the Vietnamese defeated the US in Asia.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Is there a point to the Straight Of Hormuz? What is the difference between the Iranians having it than the US? What does it mean for the average joe in either country?⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  One of the biggest threats to most species on earth is the climate catastrophe.

  This straight is a major shipping route for oil.

  It doesn’t matter who controls it, but it’s best if it’s closed. Or the fees to cross it are ad high as possible.

  We can’t afford the cost of allowing oil to be sold.

  Do some volunteering or some unpaid internship. Then write that on your CV
