I think having a way to delete accounts is legally required by some jurisdictions. And sometimes if a site does business in such a jurisdiction and are required to have a way to do that, they’ll still offer that option those outside the jurisdictions in question. (It’s easier to just allow everyone who asks than to have rules keeping track of who can and can’t legally demand it.)

But if this is an image board hosted in Japan intended for a Japanese audience, and if Japan has no such legal requirements (or if such requirements don’t apply here for some reason), then, your experience with websites that operate in/for countries where they speak your language(s) notwithstanding, it’s highly plausible this site just doesn’t have any way to delete accounts.

Your concern is that a breach of the site’s data may leak some information about you that you wouldn’t want to leak, yes?

If so, and if you can still use similar methods to navigate the site in question, use those methods to edit your account/profile details to scrub the account of anything that you wouldn’t want to leak. Change it to use a fake name. Change the email address to somthrowaway email address. Change the password to something unrelated to any passwords you could possibly use on any other sites so that if the hash is leaked and brute forced, no one can use that to gain access to any of your other accounts. Delete individual posts or pieces of content that you’ve uploaded.

Actually, I can read (barely) enough Japanese to figure out that the registration process seems to only want your email address and password. (Though I haven’t gone through the whole signup process.) You mentioned uploading a file, yeah? I’m guessing the amount of stuff you’d have to do to overwrite/delete every bit of data they have on you is pretty limited.

And, yes, I suppose there’s the potential caveat that that might not affect backups and such, but I’d wager a lot of the other account deletion requests you’ve done don’t affect things like backups either.

Well, yeah. It’s OpenSea. That’s like saying “76% of videos on Pornhub are porn.”

From the content of this thread, I’m betting there’s a lot of selection bias going on. The ones who don’t scroll past. The ones who do post.

And I’ll follow that pattern. I still live with my mother. Never moved out. Live in the same house I was raised in. But my mother was never really financially stable. My grandmother with whom my mother and I lived… well, she managed to keep us housed and fed with credit card debt, which honestly worked out very well.

Anyway, I was kindof the only person who really made much of an income in my household and have been financially supporting my parents for decades now. (Though my grandmother passed on a few years back and left me a life insurance policy.)

I’m 37 now.

There’s a reason why they call it a “suicide”.

How is this getting upvotes?

If anyone’s fooled, the video is edited from the original. In the original, the old man yells the word “mom”.

Smoke enough and you’ll be a vegetable.

Don’t post the Down The Rabbit Hole documentary on Furries. Don’t post the Down The Rabbit Hole documentary on Furries. Don’t post…

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8aF2GxWi7Ag

Dammit, I posted it.

(I’m sorry SavvyWolf… For everyone here, that documentary doesn’t paint an entirely representative picture of the furry community as a whole.)

Wait, for real?

On the chance that you’re serious, this should tell you way more than you’d ever want to know about furries. (And if you aren’t sated by the time you’re finished reading that article, there’s a link to the page “Furry Convention” in the first paragraph.)

Salad Fingers is the absolute GOAT.

Yup. I can. I have around 1/20 of a Bitcoin, so the amount I have should be worth about $3,000 USD (unless the price has crashed since I started writing this post. 😈)

Cashing it in would make me feel dirty. It’s basically just handing the bag to the next bagholder. (Though, I’m not really a baholder per se. I’m not really invested to speak of. The only investment I made to get this Bitcoin is to leave my computer on for like a month or less.) Feeding the ponzi monster, as it were.

But then again, it’s $3,000.

As much as I hate myself for admitting it, the possibility that the price will climb a little higher is probably part of why I didn’t trade it for real money back in late 2021 when the price of a Bitcoin was so high.

But, yeah, you’re probably right I should just sell it. Maybe I’ll just make whoever I sell it to promise they’re not giving me next month’s rent or their kids’ college fund. Lol.

Edit: Ok. You’ve inspired me to make a post asking other crypto-skeptics what I should do with it.

Bitcoin. I mined some (might’ve even been on my CPU at the time) back when it was easy to mine it. Not a ton, but enough that now I have to explain that despite thinking blockchain is just straight up a scam, I do have some Bitcoin in a wallet on my hard drive somewhere. (That I’ve never done anything with.)

“It’s a Unix system. I know this.” was pretty good/bad.

You’ve heard this, haven’t you?

It’s more… “up-beat” than what you posted, but the vibe isn’t 100% dissimilar.

Yes.

Never have I acquired a bit of head canon so quickly and permanently.

I think that’s just how every Rust developer learns Rust.

Nope. But that’s also not as big a deal as a lot of folks make it.

Also, he’s far from the only important(?) historical(?) figure we can’t prove ever existed.

Yes! It could be like Assassin’s Creed where most of the story takes place in Civilization, but then there are interludes that take place in the modern world.
