Thanks. There are still so many things I'm not familiar with about modernity, I'm superslow at learning them, but I definitely feel this paradoxical nostalgia towards the cheerful culture of the time I haven't had a chance to be part of. Many things are not clear to me where they originally come from; for instance I've seen the truckin' figure but never heard where it's from.

Russian-speakers are seem to be more familiar with the lolicon term perhaps due to both Nabokov and Japanese anime popularity. I hope society won't overdo with the sexual materials restrictions. I'm not afraid of people influenced by detached-from-reality sexual materials with fictional characters that can't pass their KYC and prove their consent age; I worry that it may become tough to live in a world where whatever dissatisfied maniacs will be left with no options, rather than real physical rape. This is especially ironic in the context of the related recurring scandals, where systems that make the restrictions are themselves could be full of those who appear to be camouflaging their unprocessed stuff. And of course whatever excuses for censorship are part of all this.

I'm researching a new VPS provider since mine is expiring. It looks kind of alarming that some added anti-depicted-porn terms to their ToS (or even sexual educational materials; I think I've seen this somewhere too) without any legal/illegal distinctions already. I don't know what's gonna be next. We're close to getting back to home hosting as something mainstream IMO, which is not bad actually.
