  • Just to play devils advocate here, in both of these scenarios:

    Imagine someone would sneak into your home and steal your shoes, socks and underwear just to get off on that or give it to someone who does.

    This reminds me of that fetish, where one person is basically acting like a submissive pet and gets treated like one by their “master”. They get aroused by doing that in public, one walking with the other on a leash like a dog on hands and knees. People around them become passive participants of that spectactle. And those often feel violated.

    The person has the knowledge that this is going on. In he situation with AI nudes, the actual person may never find out.

    Again, not to defend this at all, I think it’s creepy af. But I don’t think your arguments were particularly strong in supporting the AI nudes issue.

    I’d assume it’s got something to do with the system you’re using them on, some issue with power or something that better quality drives are able to handle, but not these.

    These are cheap, yes, but if everyone ordering these was failing just outside the return period, they’d have far more 1 star ratings.



  • Linux isn’t for mainstream users yet. It wasn’t when I tried switching to it several years back, it isn’t now.

    I tried Zorin recently, UI looked absolutely beautiful so I wanted to try and get into it on my laptop.

    Only issue is, the trackpad scroll speed was too fast. I went into settings to try and slow this down. No dice, this option just want available. I tried googling, which led me to some stackexchange posts, which I tried to use to solve the issue by changing xinput or something device parameters.

    I tried for maybe 15 mins to do this without success. This kinda stuff is why Linux is not ready for the masses yet. I shouldn’t have to touch the command line for something like this. On windows I could have changed this without googling anything or touching the cli.

    I know this is just one thing, but it’s representative of my other experiences with Linux in general. Things seem to have improved since several years ago (needed terminal to even get touchscreen working in Firefox), bit it’s just not there yet.

    I really do want to switch to Linux, but I don’t want my computer os to be a hobby project that I have to sink time into to keep functional, I need it to be a tool that lets me get work done with minimal roadblocks.
