Thank you so much, I've been looking for frameworks on what tf to do about it, like how to live my life now, I've been depressed for a bit so I havent left the house much in the last few years and now that this update hit the server i dont know what the best moves are, its a totally novel situation for me, i read the panopticon but not much more than that, i literally dont know how life will turn out now
I heard some investors were happy for this to happen as too much money was getting spent on datacenters, so a slowdown could be good for them in the long term, like a breather to pile up some more cash to go at it again
AI is just so big of a thing to ever stop, you might get small bumps here and there but you would need to stop it WORLDWIDE for something like this to work, no country will want to be in a permanent disadvantage by not using AI, and even if AI is "banned" how do you actually enforce it? Such a powerful technology would still be used even after the ban, they would just hide it better
I don't use twitter, this is satire right? cause if this is a real conversation im glad i was never on twitter to begin with lol
That's one of the biggest issues I see, having to go to reddit to find tech help or general info/advice.
People kinda go and bunch up together, then magnetize and start drawing in more and more people to the black hole, takes energy not go fall into the big socials. Most people are to lazy to care about alternatives
adjusts glasses mhh ackshually... Well like if you mean the start of puberty (8-13) yes fuck that, but its not pedophilia after a certain age by definition. If you feel calling it pedophilia cause it has extra shock value sure, you can try and do that, but it's just untrue.
While I agree the younger you go the more icky it gets, 18 as the cutoff is completely arbitrary and a 16y/o could be way more mature than an 18y/o in a ton of cases, of course there are special protections even for 16/17 (some considering bigger age gaps worse even if everything else is proper and legal)
I don't feel I was any differently prepared to engage in sex at 16 compared to 18, if we are gonna argue that we should drive age of consent to 21y/o maybe instead. Or higher.
So "mature enough" could be untrue even for something that's 23 years old or older, while no longer pedo after the defined pedophilia cutoff age is just a fact.
What do you expect off of a man literally called Gary OLD-MAN
Made it for you
It's alright here (I'm also super new here) tho there's way less content going around here than on reddit, gotta get to work posting and commenting here to make it more active (personally) I feel you have a bigger stake on keeping a community active when it's smaller like this
ephebophilia From what I just googled ephebophilia starts at 15, 11-14 is hebephilia, I think a lower age of consent in some cases can be argued (I think it's already a thing that in special cases it is already allowed, for example, a 16-17 y/o with someone who is 18-20) with special protections in place, like keeping a close look at the relationship and power dynamics.
Talking about this as a non-professional pedo (sarcasm), as I once dated 16 while I was 19, yea, a bit icky, but legal. I think the law as it is already contemplates underaged relationships enough, I think it even contemplates 16-17 with older adults even, again with a ton of restrictions (you can get charged super fast if the relationship has abuses that might pass as normal fights in a same age relationship, stuff like that)
I think its perfect as it is really. Safe enough for most and even giving a bit for the most depraved, impatient people of society that don't wanna necessarily wait
I think you should flat out not accept anything 15 and lower, you're cutting too close to the person not being mature enough, a 16 y/o is pretty close to 18 when it comes to maturity, but go to 15,14,13, and that's not a thing anymore, 12 and less is insane to even think about.
I don't know, I was thinking of communities
People in Lemmy are still people, I don't think you got banned off of reddit for "'absolutely no reason" my guess is that you said something (doesn't matter if the take/comment you put on reddit was or wasn't good/proper) that pissed someone off and they banned you.
I wouldn't venture to think Lemmy is thaaaaaat different from reddit in the sense that every single user will be reasonable, level headed and open to civil discussion on here. From what I read from other users, it is still possible to get banned "for no reason" on Lemmy too.
What a way to dodge adressing what I said lol... Proving my point
