I missed the chance to spend my mother’s last moments of awareness with her. If you do not do this you will regret it for the rest of your life. It will be far worse than any awkwardness and inhibition you now feel and it will never end.
My gender is my concern, but you may use any pronoun to refer to me

100% of commercial porn sites have always required you to identify yourself.


I will not be responding to comments.
Then fuck off. Like, actually. We’re not here for you to use to meet your emotional needs and not actually contribute.


Okay, but why? The hypothesis that they bought an extremely successful business because they want to make money doesn’t need any further explanation. What is the motivation for them to try to export their strict laws to other countries? You act like it gives them so much personal joy at taking away our gay kissing, that’s reason enough.


I know tone doesn’t come across but I was only being partially ironic. I recognize that sometimes one just needs to bitch. My neighbour across the hall has no concept of being mindful not to bother people while in the halls. He’s a no-joke seven foot tall guy with a booming voice and no volume control. I know every single fucking time he enters or leaves the building, because he’s always ALWAYS on his phone in the corridors. He speaks some African language that I am sure normally sounds delightful, but when a literal giant is approaching my door while shouting in a foreign language, it’s kinda stressful. I can hear him in my entire apartment! Shit, now you got me doing it.
People definitely love you for your personality
Are they just assholes or is it something deeper?


Yes? That’s arguably the Internet itself going through the exact same cycle. But it doesn’t change how the adoption cycle works or force software to magically be mature a decade early.


Disagree. They were more tolerable but very evil.


First they came for EA, and I said hey, you want some Ubisoft to go with that?


Narrated by Tony Jay, the voice of Megabyte! Thurl Ravencroft tier, for sure.


Not to mention prominently featuring transgender developers – in the 80s!


Why? Literally why would they give a shit? This only makes sense if you assume that they spent billions of dollars to export religious conservativism outside of Saudi Arabia. I dunno if you’ve noticed, but Saudi Arabia has been spending trillions of dollars to present a totally different, modern image to the world. The people spending the money don’t actually give a shit about Allah. They only care what other people will submit to in Allah’s name, and they know that’s not going to fly outside their borders.


The times change but technologies still go through the same lifecycles. Nothing wrong with waiting for things to mature, though I’d rather accept some rough edges than accept getting sold as a product.


Ooohhhh, you want to bitch about it. Tcchhh, my bad. They’re absolutely assholes and I think I heard them say they do it just because it annoys you. You’re the one on the end, right?


Okay? So at the risk of stating the obvious application of my previous comment: maybe kindly suggest to the occupant or the manager that their door closer needs to be adjusted?


Once upon a time you needed GNUtella, freeseek, kaazaa, eMule, NZB, DirectConnect, FreeNet, and bittorrent. Give it time, if you can’t tolerate being an early adopter. You will find this pattern throughout life, not just on decentralized networks.


Or maybe they’re just a different kind of autistic from you.


Probably the building forces an air pressure difference between the corridors and the units to keep air circulating, their door closer doesn’t arrest the door properly, and the air pressure causes it to slam if they don’t carefully close it gently.


This meant something specific. It wasn’t just “you are old and out of touch.”
Apparently I was unclear by what I meant by “commercial porn”, which was: porn that you pay for. If you want to purchase commercial porn, you need a credit card. To use a credit card, you must reveal the verified identity associated with it. To answer your initial question, my point was to draw your attention to the many interactions you already accept that are strongly associated with your legal identity. Personally, I would rather not give up my legal identity just to buy groceries from my local corrupt corporate grocery store, and I find that a LOT more invasive than doing so for porn.
