Wonder if 45 terabytes of hentai is more or less than a lifetime supply.

Depends on consumption rate, of course? And media format sizes. It's really hard to estimate, though, as size of individual works can vary wildly (most are probably in the 20-30 image range, but there's lots that are fewer and many that average somewhere in the 200 images range, plus CGI collections and whatnot that can go even further).

Super super rough guess, if you baseline with the 20-30 ones they probably average somewhere in the 20 meg range for okay-ish quality. Say 25 megs per set for a working number, considering the entire 45 tb collection to be made of them -- 1.8 million works, under those assumptions.

Let's say they're using it for pleasure instead of something else (art reference, translation work, cultural studies, whatever), start when they're 12 and stop when they hit 65 -- ~19,345 days. Libido's pretty active and there's no relationship interference, so they average out to two sessions a day. Folks seem to go through more than one at a time, so let's just asspull three works per session, for six per day for 19,345 days. Perspective porncritter is impeccably omnivorous with an infinite strike zone and no fetish they can't get off to, and refuses to use the same one twice (well, same collection of files -- reuploads or translations are fair game).

Comes out to 116,070 works consumed over their lifetime, less than a tenth of the total proposed collection. None of those numbers would be terribly accurate, and any prospective user is probably a lot more discerning than our omnithirsty horndog, but the rough answer to "is it a lifetime supply of porn" is "yeah, probably a couple times over". Share with a friend, I guess.

Ha, it doesn't even work on mobile browsers and I can't be arsed pull it up on the laptop. I haven't even made it to step one

Someone else.... could spit liquid out of my mouth?

No doubt it could be arranged, but we'd be approaching Mengelean levels.

I don't think it'd actually be that difficult, honestly. Get in there, shoot it out the side. It'd be kinda' weird but the logistics seem pretty straightforward.

Don't think there's much moral hazard in unfucking years of having offloaded the costs of increasingly necessary and increasingly, probably unethically, expensive education on our citizens, personally. Get varyingly ruinous student debt off the back of our population, give a legit public option to education (not loan crap, and pervasive easy full-ride access especially to people in lower income brackets), and go from there. Crack the fuck down on student loan companies on top of it so this shit doesn't happen a second time.

Right now the pressures of student debt is basically economically fucking entire generations sideways. It's an immediate problem that could stand an immediate solution. Potential "moral hazard" bullshit is something we can worry about later, and put down systems to prevent even being an issue in the interim once entire generations are no longer being economically fucked sideways.

This isn't a matter of people crying loudly, it's a matter of a substantial economic millstone hanging on our collective necks, fucking with a host of other industries and distorting the hell out of markets labor and otherwise. It's not a moral weakness, it's a not particularly minor economic disaster dragging down chunks of our economy. Fixing that is more important than hand wringing about the potential woes of people wanting to unfuck a major economic problem again at some indefinite point in the future.

Like literally what meuller has said, repeatedly. His investigation didn't materialize anything actionable against trump by itself because they were operating under standards that held a sitting president cannot be indicted, period.

Nothing much direct has happened since because the people who are supposed to do something about this have a weak link in the GOP senate that is pointedly indicating they will refuse to do their fucking constitutionally mandated duty and impeach. Meuller's evidence was supposed to be used by a congress willing to uphold rule of law to oust someone pissing on said rule. Instead the republican part of it in particular whipped out their almost-entirely dicks and added to the stream.

Too many Us in that word to be american. _{yes im aware where the company is based, that just accentuates the murrica of rejecting it}

Air conditioning's busted. It's not too bad yet (only 80s inside) since it's been raining lately, but... that's still pretty fucking miserable

... might be tent caterpillars? Idle check suggests they're more tree than grass but *shrugs*

E: Though better than a picture of the nest or whatever would probably be a picture of whatever's making it. Poking the things with a stick to see if anything comes out is a tried and true investigative technique that only occasionally gets your face covered in biting insects.
