Like most businesses, they’ve done the math.

Whatever PR value they lose is nowhere near the amount of value they think they will retain.

¿Por que los dos?

Only if the Dems fight back. So far, they probably going to be all “he’ll learn his lesson” about it.

Enraged he called Trump and threatened to expose the money laundering.

This kind of shows how casually they thought about being pedophiles.

“Conservatism consists of exactly one proposition, to wit: There must be in-groups whom the law protects but does not bind, alongside out-groups whom the law binds but does not protect.”

How I read this: every blacked out name is a Republican.

So… yeah, go ahead and release the list you fucking cowards.

It depends on how she enters the industry. The vast majority of women enter via the “casting couch” or amateur “professional” route. If she has the right agent, she’ll get the same rate across the “usual” companies. She might get the most from the first shoot (maybe by $100-200) for the “privilege” of shooting her first video.

The companies are very familiar with each other and they work with the agent. So if they find out they weren’t the first, the companies might not work with the agent again.

During the pandemic, I was watching a lot of porn and wanted to learn the business side of things. From what I learned, a girl’s first shoot is often the most money she’ll earn for one shoot.

They can earn more but often require riskier sex (e.g. multiple men, more kink, anal, etc.) but for vanilla boy/girl scenes, it’s usually it.

Women can often make more if they become famous enough that the demand is there but it’s kind of like high school basketball players thinking they’ll make the NBA.

One thing that did surprise me was that there is not as much exploitation as I thought there would be. There is, of course, some exploitation but, much like any industry, there are shitty people everywhere. Most of the adult industry are pretty good people trying to do good things.

The edit logs aren’t secret. Anyone can go to the history of any page and get a list of usernames or if they didn’t sign in, their IP addresses.

Wikipedia’s control of that data stops there.

This is purely chest thumping by the Republicans who don’t understand technology.

We need more Lower Decks memes.

Conservatives only care about small government when they are the ones being oppressed by the federal government. Like when Congress passed laws banning slavery.

But they care about federal laws being forced onto states when they are the ones doing the oppressing. Like when they passed the Fugitive Slave Act.

They don’t care about their hypocrisy and, if anything, makes them want to do it more.

Would TSMC be considered a competitor to AMD?

double checks the community instance

Yes…prison

It’s only spyware if Google can’t monetize it. Which is ironic if you think about it.

Which is why I think the next big step is a blogsite that actually covers these without feeling like you are just reading a guy’s wank diary

There is a site that I frequent but due to this community’s instance rules, I won’t post it here.

The site is more of a forum/community than a blog but it’s pretty good.

The biggest issue with adult content in games is that it limits your market to adults that want that content. Which is already small to begin with. And you often can’t advertise the same way, which limits your audience further. You only find out about them through word of mouth or through places like Lemmy.

From the standpoint of the developer, your ROI is likely to be very small. I think that’s why VN are the most popular form of adult games, since they are easier to make than full games.

I didn’t know Kickstarter employees had a union.

I hope they get it. Hell, I’d ask for a 3 day work week now.
