“just because it’s legal doesn’t make it okay.”

I know.

There’s a massive power imbalance in a relationship like that where the 30-something has basically total control.

I’ll not agree and say it depends on the two people. It might also not be a relationship and just a one time sex thing, or other. But I’ll agree that it doesn’t sound good in general, but it’s pretty common and doesn’t always end badly.

Half your age plus seven is the rule of thumb that I’ve heard. At 18, that means the lowest you should be dating is 16. At 32, it’s 23. Etc.

I know this rule and I find it too restrictive at specific ages, and generalizing something that can’t be only related to age. It all depends on the personality and maturity of the 2.

My take: being attracted to minors when 23+ isn’t fine and pretty disgusting (when the main goal is sex or similar), but if the people talk a lot and learn about each other, then falling in love isn’t so disgusting and is understandable, although the adult should really pay attention to how they behave and should avoid any hierarchy

Still, it keeps people away from Lemmy and makes it tedious to handle those situations

This. I feel like a lot of AI criticism posts are faked

People be misinforming way more than AI itself

Yea but those tend to be defederated quickly and not last for long, and each time you switch, you lose all the content you’ve posted and saved :(

Oh yea that happens

I tend to think that 16yo is fine so idc, they do their things

However I still think Disrespect is a moron (for other reasons)

Going to get downvoted but I’m making my part by de-echo chamberifying lemmy

Doesn’t sound great for you…

There will still be an amount of censorship on lemmy, it might just be on the opposite opinion of yours, so you won’t notice it. I’m pretty sure we’re slowly turning into an echo chamber as well

Because you didn’t read and respect the rules

I appreciate the solutions you give, but they’re too far away from my requirements.

Regardless of any info you get here, you will still need to problem-solve. Good luck.

Thanks, have a good day

Just trolling

You just sent a documentation page that comes straight from hell, having to use CLI on iPhone (how tf do I do that?), and on top of that it’s a page for STREAMING not TRANSCODING to a file

You can’t pull the file from your own device anyways. It would require device -> server -> device to then transcode locally

They won’t come here, and they’re on reddit because

• Actually good algorithms
• More people and content

That’s fine, you’re supported by a problem

Uhhh we might not see the same thing

Even him can’t save sleepy joe

Hmm I was a bit afraid of that, guess I have to try and see

I won’t upload really long media though

It’s mandatory, sadly. What you’re asking for would require using other software on different devices, and wouldn’t be easy to use for end users.

I guess I never found out how to do that. I’ve been using VLC for many years and never found a way to encode a file to something else, change its bitrate, and save to disk. It doesn’t work on iOS for sure.

True

I hope it works great then! Most free clients that support local download (or syncing as they call it) often have bugs

VLC is anything but intuitive and I’m pretty sure you can’t encode media and save it on your computer, and for sure not on mobile devices
