Police do not stop crimes, at least not here in the USA. Police punish after the crime happens, at best.

Technology@lemmy.world•NVIDIA Puts 100-Hour Monthly Limit on All GeForce NOW SubscriptionsEnglish
18·1 month agoAlso the sleep function on Steam Deck is pretty good. I bring mine to work and grab some offline playtime during my 15 minute breaks, and sometimes during my 30 min lunch after i eat. No Man’s Sky is chill and easy to pickup/putdown, Minecraft as well. I’m sure other titles would work as well.

You came back from the desert with a new friend, didn’t you?

World News@lemmy.world•For most of the world, the US is now a malign actorEnglish
27·1 month agoThe US is a malign actor for the US as well. Our government has become a danger to our own citizens.
This is a cartoon about the USA prison system isn’t it?
I mean scientifically speaking, we are all made of stardust. Everything in the universe is. Including the existential crisis your trying to forget by disassociating.
I agree, the average situation is certainly rife with more nuance. For example, my young ones play Minecraft, despite that being implicated as a vector used by pedophiles to find and groom victims. However, I long ago did like you have suggested and limited the online options and communications my kids can interact with, as well as using that as an opportunity to speak with them about why those protections where in place.
My issue with Roblox is that as a company, they routinely downplay the role their platform plays in such crimes, and have actively prevented such activity from being stopped while taking no steps to filter or moderate such things from their end. Yes, parents need to do more then just hand a child a screen so they stop needing attention, but a platform that exploits predator usage is exploiting children.
Now some parents may not be knowledgeable about this, and I can understand that “you don’t know what you don’t know”. However, a parent who chooses to sour a family holiday because the whim of their spawn was not bowed to is not, generally speaking, a good parent. The combination of this with the usage of a pedophile-supporting platform aimed at children while clearly not setting healthy boundaries with the child, are the reason I would say this person is a bad parent. It’s not one factor, its the culmination of multiple that result in this reasoning.

So your sister actively consents to her son being on a platform riddled with pedophiles and expects you to be complicit as well.
You where nice, I would have told her she was a terrible parent, why, and then ask her to leave. I’ve become no-contact with toxic family over issues before, and I’ll do it again.

He was in the US military and now has the nickname ‘Cheese’ from his grandchild to be known by instead of the mentally abortive attempt his squad gave him?
Dude, take the win and don’t complain. There’s definitely worse things to be known as.
The same thing a cat would do. Look at them both, give a slow blink, then stand up and walk away to go do my own thing.
Check mate kitty 🙀♟️🎭
And yet there is a such a surplus of milk that the US gov has bought the extra in order to keep cheese prices sustainable for the high number of dairy farmers, then turned the milk into a national stockpile of cheese and then sell it cheaply to help find the entire racket, for the last few decades.

World News@lemmy.world•Carlo Acutis, ‘God’s influencer’ who died aged 15, declared a saint by Pope LeoEnglish

World News@lemmy.world•Will Smith’s comeback has been a disaster – but does the punishment fit the crime?English
124·5 months agoI thought he slapped a man for making a joke? I can see why many folks would see little difference, I mean violence is violence, but if we’re talking degrees Id rather get doses of slap then punch. Still unacceptable in the situation, however, and I believe what ever issue Will had that night skills have been handled in private.
All that being said, the man has aged and people move on.
