I mean, having to deal with the torrent of that type of content was a big reason why the admin of lemm.ee quit altogether, so I would wager it happens quite a bit.
Edit: This content is also quite explicitly illegal in many jurisdictions, and hosting it on your instance can get you landed in jail.
You're not supposed to be able to beat every optional boss you find the first time you see it, unless you really are a parry God. The game allows you to circle back to optional bosses at later opportunities quite regularly.
A bit tangential, but just want to respond to your as someone who teaches singing and has to do a lot of talking in my profession - teaching (generally) involves a lot more talking than people tend to realize, and suddenly doing that after a long period will tire out anyone's vocal cords! I know my voice is typically shot the first week of teaching after summer break if I'm not very mindful about how I use my voice. This isn't like muscular atrophy though, the voice bounces back quick and adjusts to the increased use as long as you stay hydrated and don't push it too far past the fatigue and risk injury.
This has really worked pretty well for me. I have to stop myself from researching optimal builds and strategies when I'm learning a game because it always accelerates the path to no longer enjoying the game.
The most fun I have is when I approach it the way I would've as a kid: what looks cool?
Turns out games are a lot more fun when you're discovering everything yourself and learning as you go!
Boycotting absolutely works, it simply requires a large enough amount of consumers to boycott that it affects the company's bottom line more than they stand to gain by following through with the reason folks are boycotting.
For that to happen, society needs to be structured in a way that the benefits of greater productivity is distributed to everyone, particularly those most in need.
I sure as hell don't see that happening anywhere at the moment. Productivity has grown steadily since I entered the workforce - my paycheck sure as hell hasn't reflected that.
I did the same one and did select the crocodiles, which passed. I suspect the captcha has less to do with correct answers and more to do with analyzing mouse movements or something like that
I think it entirely depends if the next wave of democrats in charge of governance make any kind of considerable effort to embrace the working class and improve the economic conditions for the average person. As time has shown, they just never fucking do when they're in charge. That's why the pendulum keeps swinging further and further to the right - the democrats promise better and cannot remove themselves from their corporate donors enough to actually improve the country for the average person. So when their lives continue to get materially worse under democrats, voters once again swing to the right hoping for a change, only for things to get worse faster and the cycle to continue.
I'm hoping things are bad enough this time for democrats to actually do something. I'm not holding my breath, though.
Just wanted to say, huge props for editing the post and title when you found out it was debunked. That's so important and too many people just don't take that step when they learn, so upvoted for that
I remember learning about the Rwandan genocide in high school. We learned how the world was well aware of what was going on, but every nation and the UN refused to use the word "genocide" because that meant they had a legal obligation to do something. I remember wondering how on Earth all of the developed nations of the world witnessed this and did nothing; how was there not more outcry?
And now here we are, living through a very similar scenario. History repeats itself yet again.
It is 2025, and we are talking about an election that is happening in 2028. The primary isn't even on most people's radar. If we can't criticize candidates now, precisely when is it appropriate to level criticism at politicians?????
He's not criticizing the project; he's criticizing the headline.
This is an incredible comment

At 0:36 they distinctly say "6-7"
.... Teaching middle schoolers has affected me more than I'd like to admit.

Mate, the article links to the study, rather than be pedantic about the title you could read the study and figure out how they did the math yourself.
Fun fact: the fruit was named before the color.
Thanks for hosting this awesome instance!

The metal straws I own came with a brush that's the right size to clean them.

I was beyond disappointed when they messed it up, then issued an apology with no intention whatsoever to actually try to get it right.

.World admins have pretty strict policies against advocating for violence of any form is what I believe they are referencing.
