This probably won't surprise you, but most of the time, the only variable psychologists measure during initial patient assessment is penis size, because it explains nearly every male behavior there is.

now this ^ is the high quality HN discussion that we come here for

Oh how conveniently this would fit into your worldview ;)

If you had read the actual study, you would have noticed this paragraph:

the odds of owning a gun (any gun or a military-style rifle) are lower for men who are more dissatisfied with the size of their penises. In fact, each one-unit increase in penis size dissatisfaction reduces the odds of owning any gun by 11% (OR = 0.89, p < .05) and the odds of owning a military-style rifle by 20% (OR = .80, p < .01). According to Model 2 of Table 5, each one-unit increase in penis size dissatisfaction also reduces the expected count of total guns owned by 11% (IRR = 0.89, p < .01). Across outcomes, we failed to observe any associations between penis enlargement and gun ownership.

Oh, thanks for the correction. I misread the abstract indeed.

100% agree. The porn industry's harms to society cannot be overstated.

I'm sure we humans can do better than "everyone who disagrees with me politically is evil"

Perhaps, but it’s a good starting point, especially nowadays.

This isn't about politics, it's about not caring what damage they do as long as it lines their pockets.

if you think that blusky and mastodon is less censored than X, then I'd say that we do not live in the same world indeed

You can host your own instance of both bsky and masto, making it fundamentally more censorship-resistant than a website where there's a single designated entity in charge of censorship, and what they say goes.

Neither of those controls their ecosystem. Truth Social runs on Activity Pub.

> they used to write fantastical and very informative articles

> Still a very good website

These are indeed quite controversial opinions on ars.

What kind of logic is this? Apply this to any other march for something and you’ll see that this makes no sense at all.

Because ever having met Epstein invalidates all your success and everything you have built?

I’m sorry, you’re right, he was probably on the island the weekend of the hopscotch tournament, nothing untoward.

Dang, even rapid7 is using AI to write articles now.

I don't think your snarky comment is productive. Reddit seems like a more appropriate platform for it.

a) I disagree with the assertion that the comment you're referring to is snarky.

b) kek.
