A nice place to discuss rumors, happenings, innovations, and challenges in the technology sphere. We also welcome discussions on the intersections of technology and society. If it’s technological news or discussion of technology, it probably belongs here.
Remember the overriding ethos on Beehaw: Be(e) Nice. Each user you encounter here is a person, and should be treated with kindness (even if they’re wrong, or use a Linux distro you don’t like). Personal attacks will not be tolerated.

Neither do I, but from other platforms it's only a matter of time until you're prompted for it. You join a server where someone has posted something NSFW before, or the server admin "to be safe" set it to adults only, or they just clamp down on the definition of adults only. At some point I fully expect it'll force me to.
I wonder if my MIL's mugshot would be good enough.
