Cock and ball torture?

Not sure if there are tar pits with dinosaur bones but there are bones (not petrified bones) of post-dinosaur megafauna like sabertooths in the La Break tar pit in Los Angeles. There probably exists a real dinosaur bone somewhere on the planet.

If i knew you cropped it I would ask you why you cropped out half your grandma. If you showed me a picture of half your grandma I would ask you why you are so bad at taking pictures. If you showed me a picture of a giant sign and pointed to a funny thing that is to tiny to see and you have to zoom in really far to see it, I would also ask you why you didn’t take a better picture.

You have no indication anything was cropped. You just assume it was.

Have you seen people take pictures of documents? 90% of people take it at an angle instead of straight down. People are bad at taking pictures! The person who took the picture in the meme probably didnt even read the text on the left. They saw a picture of a hockey stick, thought “lol”, pulled out their phone, pointed it at the hockey stick and pressed the shutter button. That’s it. End of the story. Nobody cropped anything, nobody chose to omit anything.

Oooor someone took a picture of the physical sign in the real world and focused on the images in the middle without including all of the text. Because other wise the images would be to small to see.

I have no reason to believe anything was croped to deliberately remove anything.

Yeah i do. My mother told me that when i was young, other moms judged her for it, like it means she is not my mother or some shit. But also she told me, at the public pool, every time a child yelled mom/dad ALL parents had to look to see if it was their child while she could relax until she heard explicitly her name.

Both of those are screwed over by the healthcare system and the companies perpetrating it. If you cant afford healthcare or don’t understand it because it is to convoluted, that is a result of the policies of healthcare providers.

So how exactly are you supposed to move someone from the fun zone?

Hey girl I’m having great fun with you. If you get a facelift we can start dating?

Linux is famously both American and Corporate /s

But yeah sytsem76 and valve are both american and valve is corporate. And around Lemmy you would think they are the only ones responsible for the Linux boom.

The verifier does not have the information which sites you use. That’s the point of the setup. All communication goes through you, never the site to the verifier directly. You only pass cryptographic values between them that does not include identifiable information (neither about you to the website, nor about the website to the verifier). The verifier knows who you are, the website knows that you are old enough. Nothing else.

This system does nothing to protect against an allowed user helping a not allowed user to gain access

There is no system in the world that can fully prevent an authorized user to grant access to an unauthorized user. Even with an all time on camera and screensharing I can still find ways to have someone else control my computer while I “authorize” the connection with my face in the camera

Super easy. Technology has existed for quite some time and was already used in the encrpytion of web traffic.

Basically: you sign up with your “age verification institution” (ideally a service of your government because they have your ID anyway and no profit motive). This involves createing a private key (reaaaaaaaaaaly long password that is saved in a file on your device) and saving the public key with that institution. They also check your ID to ensure your identity and your age.

When you want to visit a 18+ website, the website sends you a nonce (loooooong random number). You take that nonce and send it to the verifier, along with a signature of your private key (and the age they want you verified against). The verifier verifies your signature using your public key. They then sign the nonce with their own private key, thereby verifying, that you, the owner of your private key (whos identity and age they have verified) are above the asked age theshould. You then send the signed nonce back to the 18+ website and they can verifiy the signature to confirm that a trusted age verifier has verified your age.

The site never has access to your identity and the verifier never knows which site you visited, only that you wanted to visit a website that wants to know if you are of a certain age.

(The corresponding technology was used for OCSP Stapling in TLS verification … and has been discontinued last year because nobody was using it …)

The cosmologies are difficult to compare because “power” in middle earth is just kinda … power. Sauron doesn’t need to have a “chain lightning lvl 10, 100.000 damage per second” ability. He can just … exist, and all the evil (or just lesser willed) creatures around will just fully accept him as their leader and do whatever he says. It a cosmic force or aura that is never quantified in any way. Same with ganfalf. He does very little magic. His power is also mostly in his presence that compels the good guys to do good things.

Honestly, the next Democratic president might actually deserve one if they stop the active fashist takeover of democracy. Even if they do nothing else and continue all current wars etc. Not being Trump could probably save thousands if not millions of lives.

You can read right?

Führer = Hitler
Something-Führer / Führer-Something = not Hitler

The word Führer is 99% used for Hitler. There are many variants that are OK to use though. Most notably Anführer (if Führer is leader, Anführer would be “the one who leads ahead”) which is the common word to use for leader. Others are composites like Bergführer (mountain guide).

The swastica also existed before the nazis but is now forever tainted.

Thats because the US is used to MM DD YY thats why the US talks like MM DD YY thats why its intuitive to you to use MM DD YY thats why …

There is no inherent “intuitiveness” to it. Its intuitive if you grew up with it and you use it. It is unintuitive if you didn’t.

Its intuitive to people used to MM DD YY and unintuitive to everyone else.

You (and anyone reading) should replace 2048 with “threes”. Its the original game that 2048 is based on (developer claims they never knew threes already existed but not sure about that), it has way more details and love aaaaaand it actually works as a game. In 2048 you win by going down,left,down,left,down,left, repeat until high score. In threes you actually have to think

If it shows up in gparted correctly it sounds like you did it correctly but just to make sure, don’t dd the iso to the mounted partition, you don’t want to have a filesystem with a .iso file on it. dd directly to the device (like /Dev/sda1 or whatever). BTW you don’t need dd just use cp.

So are dragonhunter and hellbender … and screaming armadillo
