With 72 years it is insulting for me to have to prove my age and the only thing they will prove will be my middle finger 😡

They'll probably VPN to mainland Europe to sign up for their account.

Oh god I'm so nervous for my wanking practical test. I only just passed the wanking theory!

When I was 6, I earned my pen licence at school.

Now as an adult, who do I need to prove my proficiency to in order to receive my wanking licence?

[–] bobs_monkey@lemmy.zip 13 points 1 week ago

The wank auditor will see you now.

Can you use it with that watermark on it? I'd be surprised.

[–] Zerush@lemmy.ml 8 points 6 days ago (1 children)

No, but with a screenshot without the Watermark at the bottom, there are also apps to delete Watermarks (always have to explain everything to today's kids 🙄)

Im only capable of copy-paste, sorry.

Are you with a mobile? Well, than upload the image to Minipaint (works also fine in mobile) and crop there la image. It's a very complete and powerfull image editor, online (also downloadable) and FOSS.

What prevents you from uploading a picture of someone else?

It gets you to turn your head. It's not just a selfi.

You must show your id to access NSFW subreddits!

"oh no!"

changes www.reddit.com to old.reddit.com on the adress bar

"anyways"

Tho i remember when they removed compact reddit. But i think if they remove old.reddit.com, people will really start to leave, so they'll try to get rid of it quietly.

[–] Karjalan@lemmy.world 5 points 6 days ago (1 children)

I do wonder how long they'll let old.reddit.com stay. I assume they don't want it but are worried about the backlash

[–] FriendBesto@lemmy.ml 1 points 5 days ago

Maybe. They could just let it rot. Let it break over time. Thus pushing people onto the new site.

surely nothing could go wrong with this

Kids everywhere making deepfakes.

Well, that law aged like milk.

[–] electric_nan@lemmy.ml 19 points 1 week ago (1 children)

Several years ago, I tried making an Instagram account. It was locked immediately (on first log in). They good me to upload a selfie where I was also holding up my driver's license.

[–] bl4kers@lemmy.ml 11 points 1 week ago

This is still the case

[–] bacon_pdp@lemmy.world 18 points 1 week ago (16 children)

Come to the fediverse we have porn?

I will straight up never give any social media site a real email address let alone a photo of myself.
