    It actually became more frequent when sms became free in my country around 2010 / when people switched to services instead of sms.
    But it has also become easier to block messages on most services so it keeps the balance.
    The age doesn’t matter. If anything, they usually become creepier the older the guy is.



  • Young children can not create a bank account so they can not get money transferred. In case their parents set up a bank account, the parents will have access to that money and see any transactions.

    Now you are probably a good person who would not steal money from your children. However some parents are not good people.
    There are also a lot of cases where parents don’t want their children to have things they need, like soap or tampons. Doubt much has changed about that from the time I was a child. It would be a lot harder for children to access things like that if no one can slip them some secret money.





  • Produkte die in Körperöffnungen gesteckt werden können aus hygienischen Gründen nicht getestet werden.
    Auch Tester für so etwas gestalten sich schwierig da man die meisten Earbuds nicht einfach reinigen und desinfizieren kann. Und welches Geschäft will extra jemanden abstellen der den ganzen Tag nur Tester desinfiziert.

    Bei einem Geschäft dass so etwas zulässt würde ich ehrlich gesagt auch nichts kaufen, klingt nach einem guten Weg sich eine Entzündung oder einen Pilz zu holen.

    In der Theorie könntest du sie bei Amazon bestellen und notfalls zurück schicken, die Retouren bei so etwas werden dann meistens eingeschmolzen. Ist aber mit Blick auf die Umwelt ziemlich unschön.

    Can you elaborate on how to use AdBlock on iPhone? Everytime I try to look it up I can only find ad block for the web browser. Last time I was told that’s all you can do, is this outdated?

    Edit: you’re not just talking about using DNS right? Since that’s just the same as android.








  • Is it ethical to “adopt” a cat? My cat lives a good life, she is old and healthy and well feed, never having to worry about anything. But it is ethical to own another living being, even if you offer it the best possible life it can have in return? I really don’t know.
    But if you do adopt a cat, I think you need to do everything that ensures the cat has a healthy life, like getting shots and check ups etc. Neutering the cat is also an important part of keeping it healthy. After all, it greatly reduces the risk of either gender getting cancer in their reproductive organs and a lot of other issues.
