Wait, you are capable of taking care of what your child accesses online without the government censoring the internet for everyone??? That's impossible!

Fascists hate this one simple trick!

x0x7@lemmy.world · 17 pts · 356d (1 reply)

It's labor doing it in the UK. It's the people who people label fascists saying the internet should be free, at least there. In the US it seems to be the opposite.

Maybe the problem is authoritarians.

If they learn the secret of the crab computer too early, they’ll never be the same.

I'm not a parent but it must be weird. Hmmm, yes, I think I'm going to establish what is FORBIDDEN KNOWLEDGE

Taste like crab, read like people

ZombiFrancis@sh.itjust.works · 50 pts · 356d

Sounds like something Strairdrac the Netherwatcher would do.

Nusm@peachpie.theatl.social · 44 pts · 356d (1 reply)

I mean, crabs are dangerously enough already with those strong claws, do we really want them learning how to read too? Think about it….

I believe 'crabs' used to mean an std at some point, but I don't remember which one. And as we all know, sexual knowledge of all kind is scary stuff, so... Oooooh, protect the kids!

Pubic lice.

Public Ice was my rap name in the 90s.

Right, part of Pubic Enemy, weren't you?

Fuck the po’ lice.

shalafi@lemmy.world · 23 pts · 356d (2 replies)

OMFG I'm old. Yeah, pubic lice are tiny insects (lice) that live on your junk. VERY itchy, otherwise harmless.

Got 'em once and then they came back a couple of months later. Slept in my dad's guest room after his best friend. Didn't even get laid!

Anyway, once internet porn became a thing everyone started shaving their pubes. That was mostly the end of 'em. Saw a crazy story out of Britain where people were volunteering to host them, keep the species alive for study.

If you catch these rare creatures, like a Pokemon from hell, you need nothing special to kill 'em off. I read the ingredients on a bottle of lice shampoo, nothing more than bug spray (pyrethrins) mixed with shampoo. Shave your junk, mix household bug spray into shampoo, wash every bit of your clothes and bedclothes in hot, soapy water, done. Use pyrethrins! I cannot vouch for any other shit you find in your cabinets!

It was crabs.

WorldsDumbestMan@lemmy.today · 1 pts · 356d

Idk the fuck you want. We already have gooner brains thanks to unregulated AI use. And news of the creepy shit facebook is pulling off. It's the parents who are explicitly expected to teach them that stuff. If not, then a sex ed teacher. You can't just let them get whatever NSFW stuff they want, it's proven to ruin brains.

Russian spyware.

Russian spyware over US spyware over Chinese made hardware.

I like to pride myself on being knowledgeable enough to clarify and expand on carcinology topics on Lemmy, but I don't know enough about crab neuroscience to know how effective this would be. I'm sorry, Lemmy.

x0x7@lemmy.world · 2 pts · 356d (1 reply)

Not very effective.

TheTechnician27@lemmy.world · 1 pts · 356d

Oh yeah?? Where's your evidence? Have any scientific literature you'd like to share with the class? Well then I'll be at the intertidal zone setting up my classroom.

clif@lemmy.world · 1 pts · 355d

Thank you for your service and also for being humble enough to admit there are limits to your vast knowledge.

NotASharkInAManSuit@lemmy.world · 21 pts · 355d (9 replies)

Good thing we humans don’t have to actually worry about sea creatures learning to read and using that knowledge to hide amongst you as some sort of secret invasion in your primitive human societies, eh? That’s such a silly thing to think about. Heh…

NotASharkInAManSuit@lemmy.world · 1 pts · 354d

Yeah, totally, it’s such a far off possibility, and would realistically never be anything for the humans to worry about, like, at all, and it’s just dumb to think it might have been something going on for the past few decades at least. So silly and ridiculous, absurd really. Anybody saying otherwise is a fool, and if you happen to hear anyone spouting that kind of nonsense please inform me about it immediately. No reason, but please do let me know.

TomArrr@lemmy.world · 4 pts · 355d (5 replies)

'your' primitive human societies?

NotASharkInAManSuit@lemmy.world · 5 pts · 355d (4 replies)

Our. I meant our, obviously, duh. Our glorious tasty societies. It was a typo, a simple typo. That’s all.

Hmm. I'm starting to suspect you may be a shark in a man suit.

NotASharkInAManSuit@lemmy.world · 1 pts · 355d (2 replies)

That’s ridiculous. You’re ridiculous. Shut your stupid fucking mouth.

DakRalter@thelemmy.club · 2 pts · 354d (1 reply)

Nice try, shark.

NotASharkInAManSuit@lemmy.world · 1 pts · 354d

By the teeth of Nanaue, if you don’t shut your fucking mouth I will shut it for you, now stop spouting such ridiculous nonsense before you make even more of a fool out of yourself! Not cool.

Empricorn@feddit.nl · 19 pts · 356d (2 replies)

This design baffles me. If you have your parental software set to block certain things, sure. But why would it need to snitch on attempts to access specific content? If your kid is smart and able to bypass the filter you'd never be notified anyway... So either block it or don't!

Nalivai@lemmy.world · 3 pts · 355d (1 reply)

And pass such an amazing opportunity to punish a child? And if the search is bad enough, you can even beat them up, isn't that delightful?

Empricorn@feddit.nl · 3 pts · 355d

Hmm, I do love beating children... At Mario Kart!

phew, bullet dodged

The way this is phrased, looks like some dystopian authoritarian government might send as a last warning to a parent

NoodlePoint@lemmy.world · 13 pts · 356d

Kaspersky

For a computer security program it is overreaching to the point of ridiculousness.

TomMasz@piefed.social · 11 pts · 356d (1 reply)

Teach the crabs how to read and the next thing you know lobsters will be doing the tango. It's a slippery slope my friends.

sqgl@sh.itjust.works · 2 pts · 355d

Lobsters don’t die due to old age. Instead, they end up at the seafood buffet or die from exhaustion during moulting – the process where they replace their shell due to their increasing size.

https://www.unsw.edu.au/newsroom/news/2022/09/what-lobsters-can-teach-us-about-immortality0

If they read the above then they may figure out to stop moulting and live forever. And imagine the knowledge they could accumulate!

Who could have gotten that Strairdrac, the Netherwatcher would seek forbidden knowledge?

Carcinization!

Rhaedas@fedia.io · 10 pts · 356d

There's a list of things to not mess around with. Crabs are a bit lower than squirrels, but not by much.

If crabs could read there would be no stopping them.

jaybone@lemmy.zip · 3 pts · 356d

Probably bears too.

I mean the literate crabs would look creepier. But I could probably take them down with a flame thrower and some butter. Bears on the other hand, I’m not so sure.

Narauko@lemmy.world · 8 pts · 355d

We must never let the crabs know about carcinization, or they will become insufferably egotistical.

Katana314@lemmy.world · 7 pts · 356d

If they teach crabs how to read, there’s a risk their society will advance to the levels seen in Carcinia, leading to a downfall of overcleanliness as king camtcha bleaches the city against the advice of his wizards, throwing the entire old ocean into disarray.

As someone who is into this era of retro computing, I'm so glad that there is an incentive to keep producing them at a somewhat okay price!

They are really essential and without alternative, for example for a reinstall.

Not sure how my comment got here: It was for the comment about floppy discs still in production.

phoenixz@lemmy.ca · 1 pts · 354d

This is so fucking sad

Having some shitty corporation already monitor your children lest they gain the forbidden knowledge and lest the parent would have to spend actual time with their kids.
