I'm out of the loop. What is Lycoris Recoil and why does it get so much lewd fanart? Is the anime that lewd too?

The anime isn't that lewd, a couple of scenes that could be considered lewd, but that's it. It gets alot of fan art cause it's popular, and thus more lewd fan art. There's alot of SFW fan art as well. The anime is fantastic, and you should definitely watch it if you get the chance, although the yuri elements tend to take a back seat throughout the show.

Windows pc calling home (even while asleep)

I had something similar a while back, where it was waking up from sleep for no reason. I can't remember the exact reason, but it had to do with a hardware being allowed to wake the device. I disabled it from being able to wake the machine and haven't had a problem again. You can use the cmd to find which device woke your pc.

Do you pirate? And do you justify pirating? i.e., what is your piracy philosophy?

Reply in thread

I still pirate my music, using YouTube music revanced, but the main reason I do it is because I find it to expensive for how often I use it. I don't use it that often, mainly just when cooking dinner, if there was a way for me to use YouTube music for $5 a month, I would probably pay for it.

Also for me it has to be YouTube music, as alot of the songs I listen to aren't on other platforms, (song covers, and remixes).

Study reveals some teens receive 5,000 notifications daily, most spend almost two hours on TikTok | Kids officially don't like Facebook

  1. disable notifications for most apps. I'm not sure if you can do it for iPhone, but any android phone, you can stop any app from sending any type of notification, even separating based on category. Eg. Turning off all youtube notifications except for security ones.

  2. Have your kid read books, this will do wonders in helping them get ahead near the start of their school life, as well as doing wonders on their creativity and imagination.

  3. Limit their screen time, and force them to find something else to do with their time. My mum did this to me, I hated it growing up, but I'm incredibly grateful now. It forced me to find ways to have fun without technology.

  4. Drop these restrictions down when they are a teenager. Teenagers want freedom. Hopefully, through making your kid read books while growing up, they will choose to read books in their teenage years. I know I did, and both my sisters did.

Although this is the thoughts from someone who is 20, going off their own recent experience and from watching their siblings, I would definitely love to hear thoughts from others about this, tho.
