This is great, definitely going into bookmarks. The website design lacks some refinement, but overall easy to use.

thanks for the feedback!

Session timed out. I'm in Macedonia. In the quick login menu there was another person with name and profile photo beside my name and profile photo. It seems the girl was from my country, don't know her. I thought I was hacked. This is messed up.

IG is not working as well. Feeds, profiles, messages are all blank.


I recently got diagnosed with C5-C6 disc herniation. I mean, I knew it was there, but only recently it started showing some more serious symptoms. Constant neck pain, right upper arm pain, burning sensation, numbness, sharp pain in the arm on specific neck movements... I've started taking NSAIDs the past week and today I did the scan...

Share your disc herniation journey.

A mid-tier GPU is more than enough if you're willing to wait a bit more on render times. You can always optimize the scene to lower rendering times. This video is 1800 frames. Depending whether it was rendered with Eevee or Cycles, it can take anywhere from a few hours up to a day or more to render the whole animation by using a single mid-high end GPU like a 3060 or 3070.


EmberGen - for those who want to play with fire and smoke physics. Also take a look at some Houdini fire reels, those effects look pretty real to me.


I don't understand after all these years why there's still this obsession with the Titanic. What keeps fueling its enduring fascination? People spending 1/4 million just to barely see a sunken ship? Bragging rights for the rich?

Does running a small p0rn website in 2023 still profitable? Can you still sell ads or make money from affiliate programs?


Yes it was profitable. That was one of the painful parts. I re-entered the job market in 2018 but my wife and I maintained the business in our free time with my employer's knowledge and consent. The business was feeding into our life savings, had a lot of assets and we had about 500k unique visitors per day (not huge but nothing to scoff at either). Our bandwidth bills were our major expense. All of that was taken from us because of prudish anti-porn attitudes and fear.

Also, from what our visitors often told us, there was a perception that our site was 100% ad-free. This is because the content was all there to promote affiliate programs. I know that it's common for people to ask "why would anyone pay for porn when there is so much free stuff out there?" My 18 year "career" in the industry taught me that it is a symbiotic relationship. The free stuff advertises for the subscription based sites, and neither would exist without the other.


You've just described Facebook, Instagram, Google, Netflix.. Just swap CCP with CIA, NSA, FBI...
