Short version: I want to work on 90s.dev, but have no time to. I could do it for $25/hour, using GitHub Sponsors as a way for everyone to chip in a little towards its development. Just an idea. The vision of 90s.dev is to be a retro os environment entirely in the web, that's suitable for making all the apps you'd need to make a game, from code editors to sprite editors to animation tools to debuggers. And it's decent…

Have I not paid my price by going to jail? By being homeless and sleeping in my car in the cold of winter? By having people show up at my door in January trying to cause physical violence to me? Are you the same person you were 9 years ago? Would you rather my children not have food and shelter because of mistakes I made 9 years ago and paid for in abundance? Should I put up a gofundme so that they can have their needs met? I'd rather work to earn that money. But nobody will employ me. So this is all I can do. Do you have a better idea? If your best answer is "oh well, you committed an atrocity, therefore your children should suffer," then fine, that's on you. But I won't settle for that. I will do everything I can to provide for them.

weird to parlay someone making publicly available information known to those who you are asking money from into an accusation of wanting harm to come to your kids. least of all given that you harmed a kid. "nobody will employ me", well, probably because they have the benefit of the knowledge being shared here.

> paid for in abundance

its my opinion, shared by many in our society, that you did not pay for it "in abundance". in fact, harming a child incurs a debt that can never be truly "paid for". your reward for time served was to no longer be in jail, not to have your history erased.

What about this one

> A jury has convicted a Woodstock man for putting a child in a headlock, pulling him to the ground and striking him repeatedly, leaving him injured in Woodstock.

Not to downplay this as I do not know what really happened, but you could theoretically (and practically?) get these charges just by peeing outside and a kid walking by. Is this correct? I suppose it would count as "exposing organs". Or sending a "dick pic" online to someone you assumed to be an adult. So many guys do this and I have never understood how they could get off of that, but then again, there are weirder kinks out there. :|

I would like to hear from someone who is more familiar with the law, be it US or EU. I am asking because I have urinary incontinence, and I do wear "panties" diaper when I go outside, but still. Would be good to know.

To be fair:

> Duration of Registration: Lifetime Registrant

Arguably the law says that you will never have paid your price.
