That's a distinct possibility! I know you said you don't have OCD but you don't really have to have that specifically; overgrooming is a feature of anxiety-related disorders like OCD because it's related to anxiety, so it can show up in less-severe forms as a disordered behaviour even without you suffering the full pathology. Worth keeping an eye out next time you feel it coming on, see if you notice anything else about it.

Do you notice any stimulus or frustration that happens around the desire? Like a patch of skin that won't stop itching, or an emotional trigger - maybe something agitating you at the time that seems unrelated?
You’re basically saying that everyone that can have anything to do with the database and systems around it are corrupt and working together.
No, just the person in charge has to order it. People do what their bosses tell them. Rules and procedures don't matter if the people in charge ignore them. And again, you're not getting access to any of the data we're talking about in the first place, because the government would have to grant that access, and you're not a person as far as they're concerned in this scenario. What organisations have you worked for that would just give out information to a person they can't verify the identity of?
That’s a ridiculous conspiracy theory.
No, it's happening now in the US. You seem woefully under-informed to be trying to comment on current affairs. Maybe stick to your own country until you're up to speed.
Network-attached storage is pretty proscriptive for what these machines actually do nowadays. Especially the home ones like this, tend to end up pulling multiple duties like media server, homelab, etc. Heck, a dedicated resource for local AI projects is a use case I built into my custom-built NAS using an old 2080 I had laying around after an upgrade, precisely because I want to be able to use my desktop for other stuff while the model is running.
Exactly. People are capable of changing and the left is supposed to believe in redemption. This purity-testing dead-to-me bullshit every time someone forgets a pronoun or whatever is a cancer that's setting our movement and message back every time we fall into the trap.
Changing yourself is hard. We all deserve acceptance and support when we pull it off, for the good of all.
Logs, eh? You know those are just text files, right? And how do you plan to get access to them to prove any kind of mistake or malfeasance, exactly?
I'm not saying a parent can stop them, I'm saying giving it is a bad idea. A parent can tell their kid why they shouldn't do it, ask them to wait until they're older, and let the kid make the decision if they find themselves faced with the choice. Children don't have a lot of disposable income typically though, so obtaining drugs is proportionally more difficult without help.
"illegitimately" is the key word there. I'm not interested in what you think happens if everything is working as intended, or your poor reading comprehension. F-, rewrite your answer and address the question or you'll fail the class and be held back a grade.
That's a really weird way of looking at it. Without the database, there's no central ledger to consult as to whether or not you're legally a person. Like @atrielienz@lemmy.world said:
The database is the backbone of them being able to hurt or harm
Without that starting point, "the organizational structure, rules, and procedures" that rely on the data from the database are impotent.
Looking for ways the system can be abused and addressing those loopholes is basic risk assessment, so
just shut up
I strongly suggest taking a heaping helping of your own advice, mate.
