@changeling Sometimes when I'm confused by the dynamic in a het relationship I call them filthy breeders
@newt @changeling My brother is a filthy breeder and I genuinely hate him for making it so obvious :akkoeew:
@newt @changeling None yet but I'm sterile and have enough trad in me that I'm really hoping they get married and start making nieces and nephews for me to spoil and teach occult wisdom to 😔
@scathach @changeling just don’t teach them emacs. Otherwise you might get a restraining order issued against you.
@newt @changeling Lol I've thought a lot about how I'd try to introduce my children to computers in a responsible way

I'd probably want to raise them with airgapped Raspberry Pis with access to offline archives of Wikipedia, StackOverflow, and Z-Libraries, plus Emacs and a Common Lisp compiler

Ideally they wouldn't use the internet or have any online accounts until they're 16 or so
@scathach @newt 👾 my parents thought I wasn't accessing the internet before 16 too :akko_shrug:

@changeling @newt @scathach yeah I second the point that if they get around your rules they passed their initiation rites! And still, exposing children to computers that don’t pretend they’re magic boxes and training attention span on long texts (easy access to books and wiki) seems like a good idea
