We don’t need to worry about those because they’re already meteorites. We only have to worry about them while they’re meteors.

1·6 hours agoIn Australia, AI child porn is already illegal, because it’s child porn. The law doesn’t care if it’s real or fake, it’s child porn.

In two anonymous surveys of CSAM consumers in the community, most (50–64 %) reported that they first viewed CSAM by accident, often while searching for other material online (Insoll et al., 2021; Napier et al., Forthcoming). The present study aims to build on this research by examining whether (a) accidental first exposure to CSAM can lead to subsequent intentional viewing and how often this occurs, and (b) first time intentional CSAM viewers are more likely to continue to view intentionally.
Respondents who intentionally searched for CSAM at first exposure (versus those who said they discovered it by accident) had 2.5 times the odds of viewing CSAM intentionally after first exposure (see Table 2). However, a substantial proportion of accidental first-time CSAM viewers went on to view CSAM intentionally (44.0 %, 167). Specifically, 144 of 284 males (50.7 %) and 15 of 76 females (19.7 %) who first discovered CSAM by accident said they then went on to view it intentionally. Hence, clarifying research question 3, that accidental first-time discovery of CSAM does lead to subsequent intentional viewing in some individuals.
Accidental exposure to CSAM led to subsequent intentional viewing for a sizeable proportion of respondents. While all genders are exposed to CSAM, males are more likely to be exposed and intentionally view it again after first exposure. Nevertheless, a quarter of female CSAM viewers also viewed CSAM intentionally after first exposure. Intervention initiatives that aim to prevent onset and escalation of CSAM consumption in the community should target all genders and consider the predictors identified in this study.
There’s your study. You mentioned video games causing violence. Video games may not cause violence, but video games sure cause video games. People who try out a game and like it go on to become gamers. People who see child porn and like it go on to become CSAM offenders. Once a person becomes a regular CSAM consumer, there’s a higher chance they go to the dark web and pay someone for this content. And at that point, we can see genuine harm.

Well technically it was a Descartes reference, though I do adore the way Kant deconstructed Descartes.
Then make up your own data so you can have a nice illusory universe. Don’t let the evil demon choose what illusions you see.

Okay, so Troy and Abed, two community college students, told a scary story where two military pilots crash landed in the woods by a mad scientist’s cabin. The scientist (depicted as their elderly friend Pierce) sewed them together while they were unconscious from the crash. But what he didn’t realise is that connecting their brains together gave them psychic powers. So then they did weird surgery on him for revenge. They put his butt on his chest and swapped his hands and feet. This is him after he wakes up from the surgery.

Sorry Americans, SCOTUS cancelled the third amendment
Yeah, when leftists talk about defunding the police, we mean that police departments shouldn’t be dealing with situations like that. We should quit wasting money on assault rifles, and instead pay state therapists to be on call for mental health emergencies. Police cannot be adequately trained and equipped for situations like this while also responding to murders and arson and such. The job description is too broad, one person can’t be good at all of those different things. We need to cut the APC budget and put more money into a mental health emergency service.

2·17 hours agoI learned a lot of what I know about the current state of things from Lemmy. Reading ordinary news will get you that knowledge, but you have to read between the lines. Let’s do an example.
If we go to boingboing.net (My favourite news site) we see the headline Roblox will now have AI politely rewrite your trash talk. That seems like a cute silly story about games, but let’s use our brains to look for edge cases. AI is bad with nuance, so what happens if a 12 year old uses Roblox to tell their friends they’ve been feeling suicidal? This AI might cut off their access to peer support. That’s going to negatively impact groups that suffer youth suicidality, like queer youth. That angle isn’t explored on the page, you have to go to the comments on a place like Lemmy or use your noodle to find it.
I learned how to critically think about the news in school. In high school English and social science they made us read the news and critically analyse it like that.
