    contributed to make pedophilia the #1 vicious crime, surpassing rape in most consciences

    It is rape. Children are not able to consent.

    What makes the rape of a child seen as worse as the rape of an adult, is that children are vulnerable in every sense of the word; physically, emotionally, financially, and sexually.
    Everyone has been a child so they are able to empathize, and we are “programmed” to want to protect them.













  • Some games/software expected/relied on a certain CPU speed to run correctly. If your computer was faster than that, the software would run too fast. The turbo button let you toggle between the maximum speed your computer could go, and the speed that the software needed/expected in order to run normally.

    Basically, there was an actual reason for the turbo button, it wasn’t just marketing on computers.





  • You can only change it for yourself by changing it to subscribed, or changing it to all. https://lemmy.ca/settings

    Compared to other social media sites, lemmy doesn’t curate/manipulate in the “feed”. This is both good and bad. Because .ca isn’t just Canadians, but every instance we are linked to, whatever communities from here that get a little traction globally will poison the feed.

    It order to fix that, .ca would need to limit what kinds of communities can be made on this instance. They do this with the no porn/bigotry rule, but that’s still not very specific. There is also the issue of a small number of people on the platform creating 50+ communities, not doing anything with them, not even making a single post. This poisons looking for new communities.
    They could decide to change the rules and remove a bunch of communities, but I assume the admins discussed this, coming to the conclusion that it would drive a large amount of people away.
