When I was a kid, I remember enjoying figuring out how to bypass our internet filters at school by using the trick where you can convert an IP address into a number. I had never been too keen on filters but after that incident it planted a seed of an idea: could there be a better way? Perhaps make the process more intelligent? Watching the incredible advancement of image recognition over the last decade, it seemed th…

How big is the model? I see the extension itself is 15MB, but does it download the model later?

That's with the model actually! It's copied into here: https://github.com/wingman-jr-addon/wingman_jr/tree/master/s... The model is 13.7MB currently.

That reminds me of repackaging a traditional historical male dominated marriage, including occasional corporal punishment, as a BDSM kink to make it normal again. You think you’re seeing a woman in a dress, but actually it’s fetish gear showing her submission.

General reminder: BDSM does not imply "man dom, woman sub". In fact it doesn't even imply how many people are involved and what their genders are. Edit: Why am I being downvoted for pointing out something objectively true?

This is hacker news

I can't help but find the whole NSFW filtering thing incredibly funny since I found out there's a "healthy" fetish community working on this problem, with Chrome extensions like "Beta Safety" or "Beta Protection"

What are you talking about? There are plenty of male subs looking to be dominated by women. And either way, it's generally understood to be primarily a sexual kink only consented to by both parties. If it's not consensual, then it's not BDSM, it's abuse. BDSM is also wildly different from marriage of any kind - you might be thinking of 24/7 power exchange?

people really loose sight of “normal habits” when talking about sex. there’s this intense religious shame, so the folks with the most fucked up libidos assume everyone must be like them. i see posts like this as a confession, much less an anecdote

as someone who used to have exactly this sort of internalized shame, i think you've hit the nail on the head 100%. let's look at the statement: "biologically speaking, naked bodies arouse a sexual reaction". i'm wary of this way of thinking. here's one possible consequence: "anyone who chooses to be naked around me is trying to interact in a sexual way" when boiled down, the same root of thought leads to dark conclus…

No no no! You and the parent comment are ansolutley twisting what I am saying and turning it into a personal attack.

I can't believe this, are you saying naked people don't sexually please other people? That's basically all I said.

Internal shame my ass. How about I use the samw logic and claim you have an internal perversion and desire to abuse others against their will, would that be fair? It works by your messed up logic but I know it is an unfair thing to say so I would never say that.

Facts are facts, let's stick to those. Maybe there are a small minority that feel no sexual desire when they see a naked adult person but since majority are not wired that way (even if they were a minority actually) you have to ask permission first. That's it, ask permission.

And people like you love to blame your upbringing or religion so you can make it about that. Stick to facts. You can pick a random atheist from scandanavia, a chinese buddhist, a muslim from pakistan and an african with a local religion (men that is) and show them a naked porn star and most if not all will be sexually aroused. This is hormones.

Religion has nothing to do with it, you are changing the subject and attacking me personally by claiming I am confessing to shame or something (like I give a shit):

Try sticking to facts. Naked people arouse sexual desires in others, yes, myself included and most people from any country and religion (or no religion). If you contest this near universally accepted fact the the burden of proof is on you.

I mean give me a break, even if this was a super religious person keeping themselves or child away from sexual content who are you to tell them they have no right and they must see your dick or vagina whether they like it or not.

Laws are literally getting passed against sending dick pics, how do you feel about that? Is that women who feel shame that support it? Of course not!

Why are you asking _why am I getting downvoted _ ?

I'd love an extension like this to remove useless news from my favorite newspapers. Anything related to murders would be a great start.

I want to read the news, but lately there has been so many news along the lines of "X person was murdered in a city far away" that it's becoming unusable.

I don't get why these filters are needed. I was relatively early to the internet compared to most people (I'm 33 but I grew up on the internet since around the age of 7) yet I grew up perfectly fine without needing to be blocked from adult content. A kid seeing a sex scene in something they stumble upon is not going to scar them for life... Additionally I was never forced to use a piece of school equipment that had f…

It's called consent. For a minor, their parent or guardian must consent to show them adult or other traumatizing content. Despite your personal experience, parents and guardians ultimately have the right,authority and responsibility to do their best to ensure the well being of a minor under their care which could mean no porn or even no meat in their diet. You don't have to agree. > Much worse than adult content is a…

> It's called consent.

You don't appear to understand what that word means. This has nothing to do with consent.

> For a minor, their parent or guardian must consent to show them adult or other traumatizing content.

Pray tell how adult content is "traumatizing"? Before the internet kids used to pull porn magazines out of the trash or sneak down late at night to watch their parent's adult channel subscriptions. Finding it on the internet is the modern era's version of that. Probably in a few more decades we'll have a new version of it again.

> Despite your personal experience, parents and guardians ultimately have the right,authority and responsibility to do their best to ensure the well being of a minor under their care which could mean no porn or even no meat in their diet. You don't have to agree.

I fully achnkowledge that parents have the _right_ to control content if they so wish, however my argument is that they are absurd for doing so. It's not a matter of the child, it's a matter of the personal morals of the parents.

> But let's say porn is not harmful or addictive, showing porn to people against their consent

No one's talking about showing children porn against their consent.

> This isn't about policing morality but consent and it is a shame that it is neccesary to begin with.

That is absolutely what this is about.

People are offering their perspective and refuting your claims.

You don’t think hyperbolic statements like “porn is the most addictive thing known to man” weren’t going to be challenged?

Sexuality is a very normal part of human life, even if someone does get aroused in the image example (I don’t always from images even with a very high libido), what is the problem with that?

I’ve been places where nudity is normal such as beaches, saunas and gym locker rooms and most times wasn’t aroused at all.
