  12. Re:No mention of causation, for once on Study of 500,000 Teens Suggests Association Between Excessive Screen Time and Depression (vice.com) · · Score: 1

    3-what causes depression also causes excessive screen time

    Absence of positive coherent fundamental ideology that covers self-consistently all important aspects of life.

    I woke up this morning on a soft bed covered with a fabric in which I can't even see individual threads, I woke up under the roof that protected me from elements, between the walls that protected me from wind, wild animals, venomous insects, etc. I put my feet on the ground to the warm embrace of soft fibers of carpet. If at this point I haven't yet praised the Deity that granted me such a comfortable life, it's only because I am an ungrateful asshole.

    That's who they are, these teenagers: ungrateful assholes.

    They are like that only in the West. Only in the West we have teenage depression and teenage rebellion, phenomena created by Western idiotic upbringing system.

    Just think about the article of constitution that implies that "happiness" must be such an important feature of human life that the state must guarantee the citizen the "right" (yep, they invented that bloody right) to "pursue" this nebulous state of "happiness".

    They are like that because the whole system geared to create citizens that are needy and whiny, because, face it, we are moving to the system where humans are irrelevant.

    The right to pursue happiness (read: become needy and dependent whiny asshole) was guaranteed by American constitution long before the first crisis of overproduction, when it become clear that humans soon will be not needed to produce anything.

    What are they good for then? Of course, they are good for consumption of the production. If we bump up consumption of production, there will be no overproduction.

    That's the real reason we are raising "free" and "happy" children, to be whiny and needy: perfect consumers of junk food, of games, psychoanalytical billable hours, of mindless entertainment, of all the stupid crap that nobody really needs, but everybody is under the impression of needing.

  25. >If that is really the case, when why not compute the hash locally on the user's machine, and upload only the hash?

    Think of the following things:

    - Is the person who shared naked videos of themselves smart?

    - Which of the two: privacy of the naked video or privacy of the hash will be guarded more by that person?

    - What will happen with leaked hashes? Correct, it will be used as a database of unusable material which everybody willing to "revenge" as a test ground before using the material.

    Things will just happen faster. There will be a competition to publicize material before facebook registers it.
