discussion on RTÉ about violence/sexual violence against women - porn's getting the blame here

some Indo bint on panel what won't shut up: "42 billion people in the year two thousand and nineteen visited ah Pornhub - which is, which is quite incredible credible.. it's more in one month than Netflix, Amazon and Twitter combined."

this is the kind of shít what'd annoy ya - "42 billion people visited" , not "42 billion visits" :) :(

not very "Upfront" from Ms Hannon by not pointing out that glaring error :x

#fkrte

some good comedy tho in fairness, albeit inadvertly - one of the other, and also female, talking heads: ".....research that looks at the links between porn and choking" . gold!

:D "choking" is main reason for watching it :lol:

EDIT: it were TD Josepha Madigan, and not a journo, what come out with the "42 billion people" quote

Pornhub has a very serious problem with underage people, people who are being subject to revenge porn and trafficked people being used to create the porn in far too many instances. It's real life abuse that people are using to get off on. I've also read many accounts from people who have worked in porn. The pain inflicted on far too many is horrible. Nothing as sexy as a prolapsed anus, eh.

"Per-joh" is out-and-out English pronuncation. There's no R in the word in French, so definitely no need to add one. It's peuh-JOH, accent on the second syllable. :geek:

The German supermarket, though: unquestionably Leedl. Unless one is pandering to the uneducated peasants. :mrgreen:

They did a big up a couple of years back. A lot of videos were taken down. The official line was they were streamlining their content. Unofficially there were mummers that many of the women in the videos were of questionable age

as bad and annoying as that Peugeot pronunciation debate is; it's in penny place compared to that effin Hyundai/Hyun-day/Hy-Un-Day one; milkin' the same old pro-nownce-ee-ay-shun schtick - pretty bloody sad, and far more annoying

the amount of accounts (well, the actual number moreso) on this site. has been pretty much the same for the last few days

it was up to 667 posters/registered users a couple of days ago, but it's back to that figure minus one now, again - maybe the most recent registered poster cancelled her account or something (think it was a she anyhow - name began with a P) - and now it's reverted (the 'newest member' ) back to JBoy being the bearer of that position, having been usurped for a spell

i smell shenanigans :P

Isn't the correct Korean pronunciation something like "hiundi" said very fast?

Number 667 turned out to be a spammer. Hence the short shelf life!

666 is considered the number of the sun.
It's auspicious to the Chinese
The Babylonians with their 36 obsession also liked it - all the numbers from 1 to 36 written down and added up equal 666. They wore amulets bearing the Magic square of the sun which is the numbers 1-36 laid out in 6 rows.
Carbon one of the most common atoms on earth is 6 electrons, 6 protons and 6 neutrons. Before it was associated in the Bible with the number of the beast it was previously mentioned as the weight of gold or talents that came to King Solomon 👍

Internet security; passwords changed / updating security (or whatever it's called) and the likes,,,

but the abovementioned "cookies" - apparently those trackers of sites visited / time spent on them and the like are apparently "acceptable" ; no doubt because they make corporations money ;)

but delete the effin things, and you'll find a lot of buffering / sites "trying" (on a/c of having recently deleted said cookies) to load up - and often failing; so ya have to suffer just because of doing the "right" thing 'security wise', and far as the bs goes, one should be "security conscious" when online :roll: go figure

__________________________________________________

which brings me to me next, and a "same ballpark" annoyance:

on one of them annoying youtube ads, and related to folks' shopping habits, there's a spiel about some new piece of tech for shop/supermarket owners; and i think it involves a lot of "tracking" , ie the person's phone / how often they look/stay in a certain section of supermarket. feck that !

it's (the ad) basically making the observation / complaint that those "bold shoppers" aren't freely, or willingly providing enough data on themselves - the rotters :P :shock:

can't think of the name of the device/product involved, but da choonts make it sound like a good thing :x Barstewards !

if i hear that ad again, i'll be sure remember what that invasive piece of tech is called

B.S mechanics who keep saying that they've fixed the issue, that's causing the engine management lights to keep coming on in the dash of your van . . . And when you're two miles down the road, the van starts chugging and the lights come back on again.
