First GW OC poster to post an image of herself (sorry boys) naked holding a can of beans is going to melt this place down faster than KBins backed up queue.
So it’s beans now? I’ve seen a post or 2. Sure fuck it I’m down.
“Dude I’ve been here since the beans” coming in a few years
I think it started when someone said that Lemmy users would upvote a can of beans.
#knowyourmeme
Which someone called out as guerilla marketing - cause apparently you Yanks have baked beans as a traditional 4th July food???
I went to go upvote it (it’s still there in “all”) just because you mentioned it.
A lemming in the truest sense of the word.
You aren’t wrong with this theory. It’s why betamax and hd-dvd lost too
Now this is redditing. Nothing like posting a wrong answer to get the correct one. But also, some random youtuber? I’m going to need far more evidence before I throw away decades of wisdom
Technology Connections isn’t just some random youtuber. It’s a guy who can make an hour-long video about a cheap fridge and make a million views in a week.
He fills a similar niche as James Hoffmann, just with general tech instead of coffee: Fussy in all the right places.
Really? Cause I can’t find any porn on Lemmy
Just remember how quickly Tumblr fold after they started banning porn.
Don’t ever underestimate the power of horniness in which large part of the internet runs on.
That dead woman called Tumblr is still walking with a healthy strut these days, also soaking up some displaced Redditors. Horny shit is slowly but surely returning to Tumblr’s fields, as well.
Tumblr illustrates the problem with porn in general, they didn’t shut it down for no reason, they shut it down because the pedos had decided to use it as a dissemination portal for their vile shit, and the structure of Tumblr made it difficult to moderate away, especially at scale. Thus, Apple threatening to pull them from the app store, for good reason. All they could do was go scorched earth on porno.
So that’s the issue we’re going to have, here, and I’m not sure if the “some guy running an instance for the fuck of it” model is prepared for it.
The key difference with lemmy is, if that one instance is the one disseminating cp, they get defederated, and so removed from the other normal users, and then if the instance doesn’t shut down, LEO gets involved. The other normal porn-hosting instances can operate business as usual.
Law enforcement would probably shut down such instances faster than the rest of Lemmy could collectively defederate them.
Hosting such stuff on the clear web is basically asking for a joint FBI, NCA and other major law enforcement agency raid on your premises.
When I browse “all” on here, there is the occasional tiddy in between. I appreciate that. Reddit’s r/all was so much better when nudity wasn’t purged from it.
Dude right? You scroll a bit, read some shit, laugh at some wit, and then there’s a tit. It wa perfect.
The shit.wit.tit frequency index. A true measure of the health of a social media site?
Technology has more or less flowed with the proliferation of porn. VHS (over Betamax), bluray (over HD-DVD), online payments and other Internet features rose to prominence because pornographic content helped spearhead their adoption.
I could’ve sworn HD-DVD had more porn studios backing it. But it was also the time when professional commercial porn was dying as a business.
I will die on the hill that blu-ray won over HD-DVD purely because the PS3 could play blu-ray and the Xbox 360 couldn’t play either. Blu-ray players were crazy expensive when the PS3 came out, to the point that the PS3 was the cheapest blu-ray player when it came out.
Probably helped, but it definitely got accepted at a quicker rate because of porn.
Let’s workshop it.
PQI: Porn Quality Index
Index of Cumming Quality, ICQ. Then us olds will feel even more old.
In other news, apparently ICQ is still a thing.
