Good to know regarding the (non) stutters! Is there a mechanism to reconnect applications to the compositor after a crash so that they'd survive? (or at least a plan to make such a mechanism?)

Haven't they started working on Cosmic instead of using Gnome and gtk because Gnome devs restricted theming? It sounds weird that they'd be able to import their themes to gtk apps, when it was the trigger for their move in the first place.

Looks very nice, hopefully they'd fix the stutters visible in the tiling example before the final version. Also, I wonder if they also keep applications alive in case of compositor crash, like KDE would in Plasma 6 (but Gnome does not yet, AFAIK).

Well done :) I specifically best like 3, but my description probably applies to all of them.

It was not long ago that homosexuality was also categorized as deviation in psycho-sexual development. The American Psychiatric Association listed homosexuality in the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders (DSM) in 1952. In 1968, DSM-II also listed homosexuality as a mental disorder. Not until 1987 did homosexuality completely fall out of the DSM. Pedophilia is in the DSM just, as opposed to Homosexuality, because it could possibly cause harm to others - that's the sole distinction.

There were no big studies regarding the effects of consuming child porn, but the little there is seems to suggest it does not exacerbate the condition, or lead to higher probability of a physical offense: https://bmcpsychiatry.biomedcentral.com/articles/10.1186/1471-244X-9-43

Moreover, child pornography seems to be a protective factor, according to Diamond, Jozifkova and Weis (2010). They examined the number of sexual offenses that took place in Czechoslovakia from the 70’s till the end of 2007. At the end of 1989 the velvet revolution took place; the Czech Republic became a democracy and the prohibition of pornography was lifted. During the next 17 years child pornography was accepted. Initially one would expect that the number of sexually abused children would increase, but Diamond and his colleagues concluded the opposite. During the same 17 years, they found a decrease in the number of cases of sexual abused children. Also in Japan and Denmark child sexual abuse decreased in the period when child pornography was not prohibited.

In fact, there's a suggested investigation for treatment utilizing virtual child porn.

Yep. It's fun in coop mode.

I'm a pretty strange dad with coordination issues.

You command one or several cities and gangs of creatures (some of them beasts, some presumably sentient), lead by a person who's armor and sword somehow makes the other creatures in his group stronger. These gangs capture other cities and fight other gangs, but they're very civil - they let each take their turn at it.

It's always best to fire your top general just before going to war. He must have learned that from Stalin and Putin.

So they're fine with cheating with someone's wife, but without kissing?

If you don't say it, they don't exist.
