Yes and they're free. At least the ones I've used. I started with Voyager on iOS and Android. I still have it on Android. I now use Mlem on iOS, but I still have Voyager installed.

My problem with Voyager is that if you're browsing /all and you block a community, it penalises you by returning you to the top of the feed. I don't think that's fair. There are some things I just don't want to see, but Lemmy is small enough that sometimes I want to see everything. It's how I find new communities. So I use Voyager to browse subscribed communities, and Mlem to browse /all.

Everyone saying they'd be for it, wouldn't be for it if the 22 year old was your lil sister and the 28 year old was the guy, and he wants to fly her to other states and maybe out of country. You're rightly concerned that she is being coerced into certain sexual acts to earn her way back home (if she'll be allowed to return to her family) and that these acts will be recorded and held over her so if she tries to advance socially, financially, or politically, they can be weaponised against her. Financial abuse 101 with a side of trafficking.

As the guy you think you have the power since the one with more money is female. You think that evens it out. But she has friends. She could get a rich man and probably already has. Maybe it's the rich man playing you, he just wants to control you via proxy. You think she's holding your leash but it's really him. Maybe she doesn't even have the six figure job, maybe she's another victim, but she's the bait.

I'm fine with age gap. When I was 19-20 I was good friends with a woman in her early 30s and a woman in her late 40s. They both had decent money. I was trying to hook up with the older one. The one in her 30s was bipolar and had a long-term boyfriend who could kick my ass, but he worked long hours and she wanted me as her side piece. The older one was a widow who wasn't ready to get back into the game, but she was very kind and accommodating and often took me out to lunch or dinner or back to hers for drinks, but wouldn't let me take her back to her room or even get a hand up her shirt. Not that I was pushy, but I did let her know the option was there, and didn't press when she left it on the table. The other woman on the other hand... well, she'd also take me out, take me back to hers, and next thing I know she's naked, touching herself, and all but saying "come get me." Maybe I was a fool to say no and nope on out of there, maybe I was wise, who knows. She was a good friend, a fun friend, but maybe a little dangerous. She ended up leaving that guy, got another guy, got married, settled down... and moved away. All for the best I think.

Now I'm the age the older of the two women was. Ain't no way in hell I'd mess with a girl as young as I was then. I guess it's different, but then again, it seems like a lot of men my age would go for someone that young. "She's legal," they'd say. Legal doesn't matter to me. "Legal" is too young. Hell, 30 is too young. I have friends now, ironically, who are in their early 20s and mid-30s. They're too young for me. We get along, I'd love to hang out with them more, but they both feel too young as far as attraction goes.

The coin it made is nickel (silvery)? Not bronze/copper? Most of those machines take two quarters and a penny, and then they smash, stretch, and stamp the penny. The two quarters is the cost of the souvenir penny. They used to have those machines everywhere. Not sure, maybe they still are in some places.

君の名は。 in Japanese with no subtitles. I don’t know Japanese. It just hits different and I know what they say regardless. (Movie is called your name. in English.)

Invisible War. The controversial sequel to Deus Ex. The PC port ran like shit on the best PCs, but I have Macs. Xbox might be the best way to play it but it’s still gonna suck. The game itself was good but the tech was complete trash. Literal downgrade in every way from the first one. And yet it was still a gem.

We just gonna ignore Symphony of the Night like that?

That doesn’t look like it’s running on a PlayStation emulator…

More water.

My dream house when I was a kid had one. I didn't have the whole floor plan laid out, but this was a feature I wanted.

There would be a standard above-ground pool, except there would be a waterfall, built into a rock structure. Pumps would take the pool water to the top and send it back down. However, the rock structure would extend back into a hill or something, and if you swam to the bottom of the pool, there would be a sliding door. You would swim down, slide the door back, flooding the chamber inside, and pull the door shut. The water would then drain (and maybe be fed back into the pool somehow?) and then you'd crawl into a hidden cave under the rocks/hill that would have a secret area, possibly including a pool. Though, that would be more of an "underground" pool rather than an "underwater" one. There would also be another entrance to the bunker... which would totally not be a fallout shelter, just a hidden lounge type area. There would be a "cargo entrance" to back a truck up into to bring furniture in, as well. But the idea is, after moving furniture/other big stuff in, you could close a door and seal it back up with dirt to hide that entrance.

If this were my child, I would take her out for a burger and milkshake (or whatever she wanted) and buy her something nice. A toy, a game, something like that.

Because the fight itself is an inconvenience for the school. Also, they figure you probably asked for it at some point.

The name of the crime would be assault. Would you like a definition? ;)

100% agree she should not be charged as I believe it's 100% justified here, but to say you don't know what they would charge her with when it's pretty clear... That said, it should be understood that when someone does something that deserves a slap or a punch or a kick, while the person might be guilty of the crime, the justification means you do not pursue it. Like the father who catches the guy messing with his kid and he kills the guy. Yes it's Murder 2 but you don't charge him if there's a decent bone in your body. You help him get the body off his property so he can tend to his child.

I also agree the focus should be on the actual crime, the guy making CP of a minor. Even if he used technology to fake it. It's still portraying a child; ergo, it's CP. The focus should be on him being placed on a sex offender registry for however many years. But, it's Louisiana so who knows. The girl would have no rights, especially if she has dark skin.

ETA: First part is meant to be funny, not argumentative. Apologies if it came across that way! Agree with you, was trying to be funny.

I don't do this. If I see a paywall, I don't visit the site again.

The Verge recently went with paywalls... I just deleted the bookmark. It was never a very good site anyway. They blasted an Android phone for doing something new, and then praised Apple for doing the exact same thing. I forget what. We were calling them iVerge for a while after that. (It was not recently.) Even as an Apple guy, I could not respect that. But the content has been entertaining, so I kept going back. I definitely will not pay them for their content though.

And runs on Mac — probably anything that can use Java (so, not an iPhone/iPad). Keyboard shortcuts are different but otherwise, it works exactly the same.

God forbid they give us an official dark mode though! There is a hack, it doesn't survive reboots/updates though and the thing updates a few times a day... I stopped trying after doing it a few times.

But yes, Jd2. Usually you can throw a link at it and it will parse it and give you the file. Though on sites like OP asked for, they are almost always lo-res and watermarked.
