Miserable marriage guy and his ex deserve each other so much.

I'd love to read a dark web post. I know almost nothing about it, and don't want to commit any crimes, but it would be cool to read about other's exploits there.

There's a youtube channel where a guy looks around the deep web in between calling out "oh you want a free thing, do these things that require a credit card and we'll unlock the full thing" scams and showing what specific viruses will do to your computer via Virtual Desktop.

The more you kick against the pricks, the more you suffer.
Fat and sad goon admit to yourself that even if this girl felt/feels anything for you at all, shes not going to dump her fiance at the altar for a morbidly obese high school crush that smells like fast-food grease.

Your best bet is to channel your failure and frustration into weight loss so you'll maybe be less of a cautionary tale if the marriage doesn't work out and she's back on the market in a year or two.

You shouldn't ruin her wedding and your life being known for not technically getting thrown out because the staff couldn't lift you. If you do though please record with multiple high definition cameras because you could give Star Wars Kid a run for biggest self-own.

Best case scenario, the bride rips him a new rear end in a top hat in front of God and Everyone. Every other scenario: She doesn't because even though his behavior is unconscionable he's so pitiful that it just isn't worth it.

quote:

I recently have lost a job and am having trouble making ends meet, working multiple minimum wage part time jobs. I decided to make an investment and bought an authentic grimoire from the early 1800s for close to 1000 dollars. I have since started a side business of using the book to con locals out of money, promising to cast spells for them or against people they didn't like. When they see how old the book is they think it must be authentic, and I warn them not to touch it or even look at the pages because it is cursed etc. If they want something really bad done I get elaborate with the rituals and involve live animal sacrifices and drinking blood and all that stuff. I have never had an unsatisfied customer yet as far as I know and they will pay a lot for what is essentially me saying some spooky words and burning some stuff or whatever.

I feel kind of bad because I know it's all fake, but it's very fun and extremely profitable.

This is a time-honored tradition but if you were going to commit to the process you probably didn't even need a real Old Book, you can probably get a pretty convincing fake Old Book for less money than that. Have you broken even yet?

quote:

My confession is relatively simple: I searched for the term "child pornography".

On Reddit.

I restricted it to the /r/relationships subreddit - I was looking for idiots going "Hurrr my BF has CP on his computer should I break up?" after a derail a while back + AARO got permed.

Well the thing is, when I hit "search" I immediately hit a message saying "You broke Reddit". This was on my Tor only account I use to troll (post snarky comments)... when I went on my clearnet account, nothing happened. When I went into another, non troll-y Reddit account via Tor, no issues.

I freaked out. I was worried that I'd triggered some internal "preserve the evidence" tripwire, especially since the Reddit post I'd found at the top was kinda fake sounding and mentioned a BF who had been discussing R@ygold. But after some Binging it turned out to just be a really spooky coincidence

Yeah I'm pretty sure that's just their generic error message

Unrelated: has the term "binging and purging" ever been used as a slang term meaning "find porn on Bing and then clear your history" because it works for that

i dont think grimoire goon should feel bad. like the business is known for hacks, and if people want your snake oil why not??

can we get a page? I love supernatural junk.

fat goon who has unrequited love - i think you should consider your relationship about her. she makes you want to be a better person. Youre so desperate for that feeling you are willing to hurt her in the process; I think you should learn how to cultivate that feeling for yourself.

Whatever you both end up doing in life is a mystery, but you can start on caring for yourself and when you're a stronger person you can help someone as she helps you. and you pass on the love.

quote:

I have been considering developing a system to detect pedos using implicit association tests... (google it). Basically, it's a psychology technique that is scientifically tested to be able to detect unconscious bias... but it can also be used to test if you have emotional connection to a word. It's usually used in racism research but can be adopted for many purposes.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Implicit-association_test

Basically you show people words and ones they know / have emotional impact register different response times (to oversimplify). A comp sci friend said he could probably rig code up to do gaze analysis via a webcam. So hypothetically (and Loq probably knows several reasons this is more of a movie plot idea) you could buy or host targeted ads that track someone's gaze + reaction to known pedo keywords (r@ygold, hurtcore, etc) and compile a list of pedos.

What's really hosed up is that the most likely use case would be to sell them more anime and vidya.

The primary reason this is a movie plot idea is that you'd need to do some dirty poo poo to give ads access to a user's webcam

Like, I'm sure all our webcams are constantly spying on us all the time etc etc but that doesn't mean anyone who buys a banner ad can access them

I wouldn't be surprised if Google was already doing something like this for non-pedo-related reasons though, they're the number-one targeted-ad company in the world and they also make phones with cameras all over them.

The rest of it I see no reason to scoff at from a science perspective really, implicit-association tests are real and you could probably do gaze-analysis stuff with them

quote:

I was born to a family of German immigrants in the USA. Growing up, I didn't know anything about my family history on my father's side, it was never discussed and they would deflect questions about it whenever I asked. As a teenager, being told you aren't allowed to know something naturally motivates you to find it out yourself, so I did.

It turns out I am a direct descendant of one of the higher ranking SS officers. He was an Obergruppenfuhrer and won the Knight's Cross with Oak Leaves medal.

I understand why the family might not be proud of having an SS officer in their family tree, but he clearly served with distinction and I feel proud of him, which is my confession. He wasn't participating because he was scared, he did what needed to be done to serve his country. I don't have anything against the Jews but I can sympathize with him, it's not like he had a choice. If he hadn't followed orders our family wouldn't have existed.

So basically, while I think what he was involved in is regrettable, I don't think he should be some pariah that we never talk about. Nobody in our family including me can say they were as committed to a cause in their life as this man was.

Your opinions on this topic seem a little contradictory -- he wasn't scared, he was just serving his country, but it's not like he had a choice, our family wouldn't have existed otherwise, etc etc etc. Was his hand forced, or wasn't it?

I can understand why this kind of revelation would provoke a complicated reaction in you, but it's probably for the best that you sort out your feelings.

Obviously I'm of the opinion that following orders to carry out an atrocity is cowardice, pure and simple, but that's just me
