If you don’t know or want more info, you’re more likely to get that help by asking questions…

The Motion Picture Production Code was a set of industry guidelines for the self-censorship of content that was applied to most motion pictures released by major studios in the United States from 1934 to 1968. It is also popularly known as the Hays Code, after Will H. Hays, president of the Motion Picture Producers and Distributors of America (MPPDA) from 1922 to 1945. The code spelled out unacceptable content for motion pictures produced for a public audience in the United States, such as drugs, profanity, and sex. Under Hays’s leadership, the MPPDA, later the Motion Picture Association of America (MPAA) and the Motion Picture Association (MPA), adopted the Production Code in 1930 and began rigidly enforcing it in 1934.

From 1934 to 1954, the code was closely associated with Joseph Breen, the administrator appointed by Hays to enforce the code in Hollywood. The film industry followed the guidelines set by the code well into the late 1950s, but it began to weaken, owing to the combined impact of television, influence from foreign films, controversial directors (such as Otto Preminger) pushing boundaries, and intervention from the courts, including the U.S. Supreme Court.[1][2] In 1968, after several years of minimal enforcement, the Production Code was replaced by the MPAA film rating system.

The modern ratings system evolved from the Hays code, the fact that it was just the Hays code is why things were so uniform back then. The fact that there was no enforcement is why MPAA was standardized…

If you’re gonna keep acting like you were, you’re going to quickly run out of patient people who are willing to help.

You’d still be able to make your “slams” it’s just you’ll never actually learn anything.

How you use social media is up to you buddy

Because societies usually progress…

Like, there was (and still is) rules about acceptable behavior and a ratings system to reflect what something contains.

A cartoon with a Y7 rating won’t contain as much as PG13 and neither will have as much as R rated. If something is “unrated” it means it doesn’t meet R guidelines, or that it was just not rated but would have gotten a rating.

Like, it seems like you’re just unaware of ratings systems, despite them existing in every country I’m aware of.

It’s always weird when people find out something everyone else knows…

And see them act like they just discovered world changing secret knowledge no one else has discovered.

Just in general, it’s disconcerning so many people are acting like trump these days.

Instead of cat proofing, you were supposed to get a server room dog…

Generations and age have nothing to do with it.

On and individually level, sure…

But boomers have been the largest voting demographic that whole time, as a demographic they have been voting for this.

It is that generations fault.

If you think that means “it’s everyone in that generation’s fault” then you just don’t understand what people are saying and responding belligerently.

And are creating the problem you’re complaining about, distracting from the real issues.

All they need to do is “flush” the pit every show.

Like, back in the day, that was just how it worked.

The closest area to the stage was separated, the only way to get in was a guardrailed line from one side, after every artist, the area was completely emptied to the opposite side. Then ideally staff could do a quick 15 minute clean sweep while the stage changes, they can clear out, and the next batch released.

That’s the only way to keep it sanitary

But that’s all extra cost, it’s cheaper to just leave one giant field and let the nonvips act like animals.

They try to make people move between stages by playing drastically different acts in a row, but it just means they don’t even enjoy what they’re waiting thru.

I stopped going to big festivals a while ago, the people running them just don’t know what they’re doing. It’s not like they need to come up with ideas, they just need to go back to what always worked.

It’s because people don’t do “whites” anymore.

1. Run a load of white clothing and use bleach and hot water

2. Put clothes in dryer

3. Wipe the inside of the washer, takes 10 seconds

You have now cleaned a washing machine…

You can skip #3 and save 10 seconds, the hot bleach water will kill whatever is making that smell. But depending on how bad it is, you may want to do that a couple days in a row. Don’t do a normal load after, let it sit for a while.

The stuff that smells bad is stuff growing where water sits, so you want that bleach water to sit there and not be flushed out. One cycle will probably do it tho if it sits long enough.

Lemmy has bans, no shadowbans.

Multiple instances and even an app has built in blocks.

Instead of looking up a profile and seeing “banned” you get an error. Instead of seeing an an entry in the modlog, it’s literally baked into the code.

You know what masturbation has been missing?

Micro transactions…

Some of the companions were “quite pushy and extroverted,” whereas others were more reserved and required a degree of courtship before the relationship became sexual—even soliciting gifts like handbags and lipstick, which cost up to $5 in the platform’s internal currency.

They’re not studying wellness, they’re seeing if idiots will treat chatbots like they onlyfans models.

Yeah, there’s been timed feeders longer than there’s been wifi, and I’m sure the first had old-school and modern, but it’s been long enough people stopped wanting to pay for both.

But even doing what your talking about, my wifi thermostat still works without wifi if I walk over to it. My smart plugs still do their normal timed schedules.

An internal clock and a tiny piece of flash memory is all it takes.

But that’s like $0.05 per unit, and a corporation will always cut that corner.

The person who did it represented himself and used AI…

However, he seemingly took pity on Elliott as a pro se litigant who seemingly was convinced by an AI system that his arguments were ironclad and declined to order monetary penalties.

Literal days after Mamdani won his primary the DNC chair gave an interview about how candidates like him are the future of the party…

Mamdani, the guy saying if Netenyahu steps foot in his city, he’ll be arrested.

That is what the DNC wants to see as the future of the party.

Reposting these old ass outdated memes only depresses progressive turnout which neoliberals are desperate to do so they can claw back the party…

It’s just always so hard to tell if the people helping the neoliberals are doing it intentionally, or are just so politically ignorant they haven’t noticed we got the DNC back after 2024.
