Public price lists from each studio’s clearing house. Licensing becomes like fuel at the pump. Doesn’t matter who pulls up they’re all paying the same rate.

Excellent write up. I think there are different kinds of pain and we’d need to measure to account for that.

When I’m at the BDSM club the women generally want and can take more pain. (Some guys are totally insane though.)

When I’m in my gravel biking group it’s very much the opposite. The dudes will slide down 20 ft of gravel and their legs look like someone took a cheese grater to them. They have a laugh, hop back on the bike, and finish the ride with blood in their shoes. The ladies generally take a little spill and loose a little skin and they are crying and want help walking their bike back to the car. (Some chicks are hard as nails though.)

Nah. We need legal protection to separate content creators and distributiors. Creator’s license content. Laws could mandate all distributors get access to the same pricing. Then you pick the distribution platform you enjoy.

Creator’s compete for views with quality content.

Distributors compete for users with features and curation.

No exclusive rights. No studio running a streaming platform. No streaming platform starting up studios. None of this anticompetitive lock-in.

I don’t know much about AI porn but I see a huge difference between putting a real person’s face on a real person’s nude body and putting an imaginary face on an imaginary nude body.

What part of the world does this idea come from? Men in general definitely don’t complain about pain more than any other gender in my region. I have noticed a gender difference between taking a nap, walking it off, and taking drugs. I could probably generalize a bit about who prefers rest, who prefers to grin and bare it, and who prefers to try to medicate it.

I see my mistake. I was overly focused on airborne data. Malaria hasn’t really changed for the better has it. Thank you.

I stand corrected. Let me adjust my comment. Most viruses, the vast majority, are not deadly to humans. Those that are tend to mutate to become less deadly to humans over time.

Totally 💯

HIV won’t kill you. It weakens your immune system so other diseases kill you.

Uh… Cancer is not an organism with its own genes. Cancer is you baby, you’re just just getting out of control. Viruses sometimes start deadly but they almost always get less deadly over time.

Don’t they usually mutate to less deadly forms? Killing their host isn’t exactly a successful strategy.

Yes! I use those all the time. It needs to be standard.

I don’t know about that but I think we need two clipboards, standard. If we had the existing clipboard and a second with dedicated keys that would be very helpful.

Downsides include having to solve lots of captchas or just getting blocked by services. I prefer just booting up Tails and connecting through the VPN with that but give it a try.

Now do the A spec.

Always. If you aren’t communicating with the intent to exchange meaning you’re communicating in bad faith.

Probably mostly to warn others. Sometimes to point out information I believe is wrong. Mostly I’m trying to keep the ship on course.

It’s actually about NTP.

Yeah! In this case there is no reason not to live the dream.

Precisely. So much added expense for zero, or rather negative, added value.
