It is so much easier to have nuanced discussions on Lemmy. You are correct I realize now you were just responding to poster above you

While it’s probably true that there are people who might struggle with porn, there are plenty of people who struggle with addictions of all kinds - alcohol, gambling, opiates, etc.

But there are certainly valid questions that come up with stuff like this:

• Is the government’s place to enforce a mandatory 18yr age requirement to view porn?
• If so, what kinds of unintended ramifications are possible from imposing such a requirement? I can think of quite a few, but I’m curious what others think.
• Could it be argued that this is an attempt to legislate morality or impose censorship?

I think that these are fair questions and perhaps the meat and potatoes of the issue lies a bit deeper than anyone’s sole opinion on whether porn is “bad for you” or not.

Always call the closing attorney’s office before initiating the wire transfer on closing day. Back when I closed, I called their office and did a read-back on the wire information they had sent to make sure it was genuine. Once that money is wired there’s no take-backs

Well I mean actuaries are like savants. Years ago in uni my calc III college prof was one. Amazingly sharp dude. Do I think insurance companies over-generalize their risk assessments? Yupp. Do insurance companies likely ignore their actuaries and set premiums to make outrageous profit? Probably.

Disclosure: I hate insurance companies. Also that professor was super weird

It’s funny that even though theft rates have plummeted since the mass software upgrade, premiums have stayed high. They have savant-level mathematicians (actuaries) evaluating risk and even with compelling data showing otherwise, they choose to keep labeling these cars high risk and continue to charge exorbitant premiums.

Random thought but why do the provided links never work in Memmy? They don’t redirect.

Ram trucks also are the #1 vehicle for DUIs in the US.

So there’s no way for Linux cups drivers to run these printers. Another reason to pass on them!

I noticed that too and I dumped Chrome for FF on every machine I use as soon as I read about this

Why not? Is this not an appropriate place to park?

Oh for sure. Definitely not disagreeing with that

If they could fix these issues via OTA then they wouldn’t be forced to do physical recalls. They’ve had windshields fly out of their frames at highway speed, steering wheels come off, catastrophic lower ball joint separation, vehicles leaving their factory with missing brake pads…software updates only take you so far
