Why aren't you on a vpn?

A vpn keeps you sushi rollymous on the internet.
It bypasses any school, home, office or country blocker.
It keep you un-banned from any website.
It keeps the government from spying on your internet activity.
It allows you to view region locked content from anywhere in the world.

If you like your freedom, I suggest you get a vpn http://sushi rollyourself.club

There's some truth in here but it's mostly scare tactic bullshit that misses the point.

Some western countries require ISPs store basic traffic details for a certain length of time, if you're using a VPN then all they've got is the IP of the VPN endpoint you're connecting to, instead of the details of the sites you're visiting. As for trust, obviously that's important but you can look at past cases against your intended VPN provider to judge that. Finally if the VPN service is RAM based then they literally can't store the connection logs.

I have major gender dysphoria and its certainly a drag on life, and I just want to rant about it, and you guys are all nice (oh yeah so fair warning this is just me going on about my problems, also this may be really long and I don't know if there's a character limit so this may be multiple parts).

I'm just never going to look or feel right, I don't think. Because I just happened to be born with this mental illness. As a kid, I always liked to imagine myself as a girl for some reason. In internet circles I'd pretend I was a girl, for no real reason other then preference. It wasn't like I was doing it for kicks, saying I was a guy after flirting with someone, i really just liked being a girl instead. I lived in a pretty liberal area, so I found out about trannies by middle school, and by age 14 i was pretty sure I was one. Unfortunately, I was a very early bloomer, and puberty hit me really hard. I was 5'10" at 14 and only kept growing, grew facial hair in middle school, broad shoulders, square jaw, everything. And I hated it as much then as I did now. I grew my hair out and to this day have real nice hair with perfect curls but that was kind of the end of things I actually liked about myself. With my frame, nobody ever really mistook me for a girl, even from behind. Guy friends I had that were super short or just feminine in general got mistaken for girls without even trying or wanting to and I felt really jealous. When I was 15 I started having friends call me "Abby" online and told them about some of this. I started getting that feeling of "being a women trapped in a man's body" people talk about as opposed to "being a man that want to be a woman," a change you don't really notice until it happens. That felt pretty nice. Every now and then, when I was home alone, I'd sneak into my sister's room and wear her clothes and look in the mirror for a while. I stopped because it felt like I was doing something perverted even though I wasn't attracted to women (more on that later), but it felt nice to take pictures of myself in dresses, even though I deleted them afterwards. but…yea. I just really hated being a man. Sometimes I would curl up and stare at all the hair on my legs and nearly have a breakdown over that.(Part 1/?)

What are your thoughts on deep faked porn. It's driving me crazy how many folks are being Boomers and freaking out about the new tech. They're calling it a violation of their favorite streamers' dignity even if you would never meet that streamer.

Personally, I think we'll get used to having fake porn of everyone on the internet. It'll be like old porn stars never retired and you can make up pure fantasy about anyone the married woman you saw at a coffee shop.

hi hi!!! sorry if the format is weird, this is my first time posting on a forum or anything like this. also dont know if this is the right thread - i'm sorry!! i just need a place to open up about my eating problem.

content warning: anorexia, binge eating

i'm an 18 year old girl and i'm graduating from high school this year. i still live with my parents, and i plan to go to college but still live in this house and just drive to my classes since the campus is so close to where i live. our pantry is FILLED with cheap junk food.

i have always had a problem with a constant need of control. i am a recovered anorexic. i lost weight extremely quickly and weighed less when i was 17 than i did when i was a healthy 11 year old. i have been very close to being hospitalized before the start of my recovery. i would go days on end of not eating or half a meal and then once a week i would routinely have one binge meal that would be at LEAST 4000 calories. yes in one sitting. at some points i would eat an entire pizza and a tub of ice cream and then throw up half of it and force myself not to eat for days out of guilt. i decided to recover because i need to stop putting this energy into "making my body perfect" and "having control" but rather put this effort into being a better sister, a better friend, and a better person. being hungry all of the time made me miserable and insufferable to the people around me. i was an awful person who constantly put down the people around me due to my own internal insecurities.

now that i've gained a LOT of weight (in the past 5 weeks i've gained 35 pounds) i'm 5'6 and 128 pounds currently. i look "normal." my issue is that now that i've forced myself to eat 3 meals a day i cannot stop binging. i have my first two meals at school so those are pre-packed (with healthy stuff that i enjoy!! salads, fruits, nuts) and both meals are around 550 calories. i have absolutely no problem pre planning my meals and eating them at school where i literally don't have access to a fridge or any other food. but on my third meal when i get home, i eat the whole fridge. the minute i walk into the house i go to get food. just sitting downstairs a room away from my kitchen is a trigger. i have that whole binge thing i USED to have once a week, now every SINGLE day. i've been struggling with eating for so long that my body cannot feel "fullness." i can't stop. i haven't allowed myself to eat for so long that now it feelPost too long.

The transition you're about to go through is tough but I think you will probably benefit from the new environment and resources available to you.

First of all, welcome to the boards. I can't remember the last time I've seen someone say openly "I'm a girl and new to forums" so I feel compelled to offer some advice you didn't request. I'm coming from a similar place. I'm around the same age as you and I'm in college. Have been on the internet way, way too long and got into online communities way before I should have. Typical stuff. There are a few girl-centered IBs out there that you will inevitably stumble into if you actively look into what IBs are, but I strongly strongly recommend against them. There are a lot of people that promote pro-anorexia through various means (even if it's against the rules) and the politics that have sprung up over the years have bred some of the least productive, most toxic communities I've ever seen. As they changed, I started to notice the way I thought about/processed the world change as well in a really negative way, and I stopped using them. Just my sincere words of advice from one stranger to another, don't let your mindset become toxically affected by any community online.

Eating disorders are so difficult and misunderstood. I'm really sorry you're going through this.

First thing is, when you get to college, you're probably going to have *free* access to mental health services. Please use them. Usually counseling in college is specially prepared for helping students with eating disorders. Yes sometimes it's hit or miss at some places but a professional environment *will* help you. A lot of times people get cold feet or feel like it won't help them after a couple of sessions. Keep pushing and attending. It sounds like you really want to make positive changes in your life and already kind of understand some of the underlying issues so it will probably be effective for you or at least start you in the right direction.

Secondly, I just wanted to say that, whatever condition your body is in or however you look, whatever weight you are, you are still of value. I know the self-hatred stuff over physical appearance is deep-rooted but sincerely, you have a disorder, and it is okay to struggle. It's okay to not be doing well. We take things one day at a time, look for the next step, and forgive ourselves for yesterday. It took me so long to learn that.

Last thing I picked up from your Post too long. Click here to view the full text.

Welcome to Sushichan! We hope you stay for a while. While I can't offer perfect advice, because I am not you, I can offer my own experience with eating disorders. The best advice I can give is to talk to a doctor, because they can give better advice than anyone here. Second thing I would recommend is asking your doctor about a SSRI. I've been on SSRIs for a while, and one thing that they're really effective at is regulating over-eating. I used to over-eat due to depression and loneliness, but once my body adjusted to SSRIs, I started eating a healthy amount and eating a more nutritious diet. I found that I no longer craved junk food. But everyone reacts to SSRIs differently, so make sure to talk to your doctor first.

Hope you find what is right for you. Mental health is a long and arduous journey, but I believe in you. You can do it!

It boggles my mind how many people trust Wikipedia and think it's generally above bias. I remember when I used to do edits and they had power users who watched pages and fought adding criticism of the Intellectual Dark Web for years, by removing links to articles that criticized those influencers, until the momentum turned against them because even people who didn't care about the IDW could tell they had become a total joke.

Wikipedia is also extremely biased and it just depends on who was able to get enough buddies together to push an edit through and prevent someone else from editing the article. Have you even ever tried to edit an article there? The idea that they're neutral or "usually trustworthy" is just…ridiculous on a lot of topics.

The people who founded it were even followers of Ayn Rand which is where the libertarianism came from until it turned into a place where super rich people can pay money for a company and their Wikipedia editors to turn their biographies into flattering resumes, or to find ways to bury or omit sentences, citations, and articles that aren't in their personal best interests. I think a lot of people who think too highly of Wikipedia haven't ever been involved enough to have glimpsed its dark side. Wikipedia's peer review is not the same process as actual peer review. People don't write as many articles on Wikipedia anymore and I think it's because the sheen has worn off.

academic peer review is bullshit which has held science back for decades, I don't think this is a good argument against wikipedia. In fact I think wikipedia's review process is far better than whatever exists in academia.

I agree with >>4391, I don't think Wikipedia's bias is a serious issue whatsoever. Yes, certain articles are co-opted by terminally online leftists, however that doesn't discount one bit from the fact that wikipedia as a whole is one of the greatest projects humanity has ever undertaken.

The concept of a "neutralpedia" isn't possible in general because neutrality is an abstract concept with many definitions that can be enforced in a myriad different ways, especially when it comes to controversial subjects. In my opinion, Wikipedia is doing an alright job at presenting basic facts on non-controversial subjects like biology (although there are schizos who get angry about phrenology no longer being recognized as science or trans people existing) and things which are generally uncontested by most people (like noting the fact that, say, WW1 happened) but it gets really sketchy when it comes to presenting its own perspective on the issue. Any "neutralpedia" would inevitably run into the same problem down the line.
To be honest, I don't like it when any information source claims to be "unbiased" or "apolitical" or whatever. We all have biases, and it would be much better to just be honest about them instead of hiding behind the notion of objectivity.

Wikipedia hasn't been neutral in a long time. It's so not-neutral that a co-founder of it has said several times that the site's not neutral and is as a result a poor source of information. Neutrality was never going to be an easy concept but Wikipedia doesn't even try, outright making authoritative statements on subjective topics near every page.
Easy enough to spot if you're looking at the differences between a politican they like and a politican they don't like, not so easy to spot when you're in the middle of some subject you're trying to learn about and you treat them as the alpha and omega on it, which most people browsing the site tend to do.
There's no argument to be made that Wikipedia doesn't heavily bias the information it shows on the site, there's only an argument to be made on whether or not you or others care or whether or not that's a good thing.

I have no idea what the best place for a normal conversation is about this is these days. Hopefully a little IB meta can be tolerated on /hell/.

I feel like nobody thought twice when hiro purchased 4chan from moot in ‘15. Things were flying off the rails. hiro had the social, economic, and legal experience to keep the site going and moot appropriately credited him with inspiration (even though hiro ripped off amezou).

What I think we missed (I certainly didn’t have any Japanese language knowledge in 2015. oh the things I was innocent to) was the perspective of hiro as a person. His edgelord-esque visage and his capitalistic inclinations, to me, seemed to be dwarfed by the fact 2channel was literally stolen from him.

In any case, it appears that GSC did invest a shitton of money in 4chan, and apparently dwango did too (although I can’t find a citation on that number.) My conspiracy theory is that the vtuber board, /vt/, was at least partially created as a way to drive economic interest in Good Smile products and *possibly* dwango’s investments. While I can somewhat understand GSC, dwango’s involvement somewhat eludes me, unless hiro was just very persuasive with his relationships at dwango. But other than the addition of /vt/ and the persistence of 4chan’s weeb origins, I honest don’t see what benefit they thought their investment would bring to them at the scale they invested.

A lot of the articles are talking about how hiro has turned a blind eye to hate on the site, and it’s true— but so did moot. So that much is nothing new. But hiro was definitely absent at the period of time the most was happening and affecting the real world. We’re living with the aftermath now, and the corruption of the idea of “the internet is serious business.”

Just hiro using his connections to prevent the site from hemorrhaging money? A more intricately planned investment? I’m just surprised. What does everyone think?

good thread.

You may be right about /vt/ existing due to GSC's influence, but really, virtual youtubers are wildly popular regardless and /vt/ fits with the theme of the site, I think it would've existed anyways.

Something I feel is more directly inspired by GSC is the failed attempt by Hiro to make a 4chan themed vtuber. He had a contest for it and even selected a design, but nothing came of the project.

Really, I think GSC/Dwango invested with the intention of seeing some more serious returns on the project, and I think those companies have largely suffered as a result of Hiro being a shitty CEO who isn't capable of serious innovation on the platform. The 4chan vtuber incident shows that Hiro has no idea how to build whatsoever. 4chan could be so much more but it's been ignored and allowed to stagnate for many years because nobody knows what to do with it.
