1. Can be, but youre forgetting teenagers are also included. In essence, its quite logical to say there are more over 18s than under 18s.

2. How come? In my opinion its quite ageist to be basing difficulty of of age, unless I’m reading too deeply.

Or simply just the “busy life feature”, no need to exclude minorities here.

Correct, its the elites that have an upper hand here.

Personnel department sounds so much neater.

Aww, hope they are happy 💞

Yep, at least theyre honest about it rather than throwing random accusations.

Yep, that is a perfect response. Different jurisdictions have different rules and ethics; having your pants down vs being anon is the difference between easily becoming a criminal upon your arrival and them just knowing the stuff they need to know.

Ugh, is this a standard Lemmy comment or something. Whole lot of these hypocrite comments in .world, please just cut the crap outside of that instance.

Yep, a lot of people jumping to conclusions from the get go. And I agree, bioengineering is really cool stuff.

Should have gone with the mini USB instead…

You just proved my point - you are experienced. To the experienced, nuance doesnt matter all that much to the point where doing it, is as you essentially said: ‘simple’.

because it literally requires nothing but putting a worm on a hook and throwing it in the water

I’m pretty sure there is more nuance than what is perceived.

Yep with the state of the earth, crickets are becoming a rarity 😥.

Majority is teens; but frankly, there are instances where children drink. At least hard liquor isnt as popular as relatively-low alcohol drinks.

I would assume marketing is also the influence on that decision. Seemingly gen alpha seem focused on vaping instead, so times are changing - not necessarily for the better.

The only right answer.

You explicitly mentioned this, alright. But you still use it, because… Its “pretty darn useful”. Now I’m trying to understand, but your statement is a bit convoluted as the conclusion essentially puts the app in a good light. Implicitly youre telling a different story.

pretty damn useful so i keep using it for piracy stuff

This is the kind of behaviour which will further boost telegrams presence as a valid source of information - which is not.

In reality it has wild history to the point where people got jailed by telegrams aid with the authorities. New people will essentially be manipulated that this is a trustworthy application.

The ageist tree.

Among the actual educated community, adolescence is understood to continue into the mid-twenties and your appeal to popsci media does not change that.

But where we actually talking about that. Please think through it for just a second. Moving the goalposts isnt going to get us nowhere considering the fact youre just blindly throwing scientific articles.

Reread the thread again, slowly and carefully. I ain’t throwing insults neither should you. And if you still think there is shit involved: read the articles, look it up on your browser and understand that we aren’t even close to the supposed “pedophilia” you’re so focused on.

Discriminate all you’d like, but I want to clearly understand why youre doing it. Insults isnt going to do much here.
