  • Kids will push the limits, school shootings are a thing, kids are going to joke/mull the concept of shootings like anything else.

    I guess the plan is to increase school shootings and their prominence in people’s minds, but also come down increasingly hard on anyone who happens to have it affect them the wrong way.

    (The child must learn how to hide from shooters. It must wear bullet proof backpacks. It must hear about shootings all year, every year. It must never make light of this topic, or else.)








  • Feels like news from another dimension. Yes, I understand where censoring “bad words” comes from. But at the same time, huh? Why aren’t they using AI to mark posts for polarizing (adult?) content? Why not mark insidious arguments, propaganda… things that require experience and which if internalized by a naive kid might derail natural progression?

    When I put on my “think of the children” cap I think about things that might hurt children, not stupid shit like censoring inappropriate language.


  • Wow, and I consider steam to be utter trash. It uses more resources than the games I want to play. A web browsing engine, in the software that’s the only way to launch the game you paid for, just to show bargain bin shit. But I’m not interested in that, I just want to have a place to shop, and then the ability to use the things I bought. I don’t want to drive to Walmart to play the music I bought, I don’t want my computer to load Walmart just so I can play a game. It’s crazy how bad Steam has become.
