The JIT compiler of Java does the optimization you're talking about. So that advantage of C++ is not really there.
You can compile C++ for all architectures you want as well. The reason you don't normally use Java for clients is that the garbage collector runs at undefined times, causing stuttering. This has been rectified through new algorithms though, so the real reason why you don't wanna use Java is because it simply doesn't have the best tooling and libraries that C++ has, no Unreal engine and no Godot.
It's literally the most natural thing in the world to equate reproductive effectiveness to worth. All life is "worth" their reproductive effectiveness. So not having sex is very relevant to our entire existence as a species.
As such, our mental faculties put a heavy punishment in the form of mental pain, i.e. "self-worth attached to getting laid", on this whole thing.
This has very little to do with societal expectations. It's simple biology. Not getting laid is supposed to be one of the worst things for an organism.
You're rationally right with what you say, but it's simply not very relevant. Rationality does not help with our most deeply rooted biological desires. The only thing that helps is getting them fulfilled, i.e. having sex.
Even with the external mind it'd be irrelevant. As long as we have no way of knowing the future or being able to predict it, having or not having free will is observed in exactly the same way.

For the markings, I've seen such a small cart that just had an adjustable wheel on a pole at the side. Since the pole was fixed length, they just kept the wheel near the outer road border and thus kept the distance always the same, keeping the marking in the middle.
I mean I was just giving a simple refute to the guy that said all is good if "no one" is harmed, not really debating perfect systems in society. Basically this
Almost always something "bad" happens though, someone is harmed... Someone rapes, you jail that person -> the rapist is harmed. Is it a bad process? Of course not.
It's not about not harming anyone, it's about harming the right people. Who we harm in what case is what almost all political discourse is about.
these people didnt post those pictures with the intent for someone to jack off to.
An assumption. How do you know? In my view, posting your own pics on social media is at least in some way meant to display yourself in a pleasing manner to other people. I'm sure many people post themselves on social media to be admired. And I've seen so many instances of people specifically displaying their cleavage or skimpy outfits or for men going topless etc.
It's really not that farfetched that people post pics on social media with at least the awareness that they might possibly or even likely be masturbated to.
If you use it in the web version, I have LULs, a script which makes all Lemmy links that point to a different instance which you encounter while browsing, to point to your instance.
