You don’t have to be attracted to men to make content solo or with other women.

Than I don’t understand why men are whining. You can just have gay men pay your rent via doing sex work and posting images as well.

I am not arguing that a male stripper makes more or less money. I am arguing against the shockingly widespread and completely delusional idea that seems prevalent online that all women can just simply earn money online by posting any pictures and apparently are all just too dumb to do so.

Do you think women are all stupid to not simply get rich with feet pics and Onlyfans? I mean, you can’t really think those incel theories of: “women just have to upload some pics and get money, I can’t, unfair! Mimimi” are true, right?

Than all men can do it too. Just sell pics to gay men.

The average Joanne also can’t do that.

They are no where. It’s a typical misogynists theory that all women can easily make money with Onlyfans and have people paying their rent.

“can do it more directly more easily”.

Jep, I guess it’s easy to work the most dangerous job you can have. That’s why especially people in wealthy countries do it. Because it’s direct easy money…

How much money do you believe the average woman can make on Only fans?

Why do you think you can’t do that as a man?

I never thought it would bother me, until I actually sat in a car where everything was dependent on software the first time.

At first I thought I was just getting old. But it dawned on me that relying on software to fucking roll down the windows or starting the car doesn’t feel too good.

(It was also an extreme jump in technology for me because the last car I drove before that was an old Corsa around the year ~2005.)

How could they forget Pascal :/

The SI system is a metric system and also defines the use of the words describing powers of ten. The use of kiloseconds also isn’t wrong, it just means 1000 seconds, obviously. But it only makes sense in context (for example short lived isotopes).

The same way “Megameter” is formally correct but no one uses it because there is rarely a context where this was useful.

I feel the issue of false accusations is only brought up when it is a woman falsely accusing a man of rape. No other type of false accusation gets that much attention, it’s own Wikipedia page, multiple blogs, etc. etc.

I would like someone to make a study about how much false rape accusations are talked about on social media like Reddit, Lemmy, etc. in comparison to, for example, rape cases that never get any conviction. Or convictions for rape that got laughable sentences.

For some time it was. People wrote longer, more elaborate posts and were overall a lot less aggressive.

I only lurked on a smaller Lemmy instance before the great Reddit exodus, but even in the first few months when people started pouring in, it still was like that. It became more and more like Reddit over time.

I wonder what exactly makes internet communities turn like that. What is the connection between having more people in one (online) space and it starting to get more and more toxic?

You also wouldn’t be able to post about an actual rape case from 13 years ago and get 600+ upvotes. People aren’t interested in that.

What a dishonest bs. It’s not the scientists who communicate these dumbed down “theories”, it’s journalists and trivial science books and shows.

Makes me loose all respect for the author.

At the university where I studied professors were constantly talking about what we don’t know. Formulated every theory extremely carefully, there was no “it is like that”. What kind of scientists is he talking about?

It’s usually some rant about “brains are just probability machines as well” or “every artists learns from thousands of pictures of other artists, just as image generator xy does”.

I’ve often seen people on Lemmy confidently state that current “AI” thinks and learns exactly like humans and that LLMs work exactly like human brains, etc.

What you seem to are saying is that specifically and exclusively people who work on software, music and digital art should give away their labour for free.

Do you know any platform that only offers digital stuff that’s not buyable in a “good” way? Because I don’t. That pirates pretend to ride some moral high horse is a cope that’s incredibly disrespectful towards creators.

I feel in online communities like the Fediverse there is an active community of people who do not respect work of people who aren’t working in tech or science. Or maybe it’s predominantly a disrespect for creatives? I see this in discussions about AI image generators as well. And it’s basically the same set of arguments that try to suggest artist should work for free.

They just have to add “get a real job and do your hobbies in your free time” and we have full circled back into the boomer mindset.
