@lain IRC does not have an admin randomly banning people from the entire protocol because they once got accused of something they didn't do and then refuses to accept any proof of the opposite.
In IRC, this same power abuse is done by channel ops, and seldomly also by server ops. Thus, less centralized and one can actually go elsewhere.
- "do you want mass censorship" - leading towards no censorship - "do you support filtering of radical and extremist content" - leading towards yes censorship - "do you support filtering of child abuse content" - leading towards yes censorship - "should providers be fully responsible for the content they host" - leading towards no censorship - "should providers be exempt from any responsibility for the content they host" - leading towards yes censorship
@coolboymew@ChristiJunior@caekislove@Moon@Giganova8 I don't have that kind of optimism. With the right leading question, pretty sure you get 90% to agree that they want mass censorship. Of course, you can also make 90% oppose mass censorship by asking the questions the right way.
@Hoss That makes these AI things actually useful for trans folk - unlike their friends, who will say they pass out of politeness, and their coworkers, who will say so out of fear of HR complaints, Midjourney is plain honest. Allows them to really judge how well their work turned out. Actually can be a great tool for them to make the adjustments until they do pass.

@SpurgAnon To be fair, given not much time I would have done it wrong too. I would intuitively have drawn the water line at the same height as the standing one, when actually it should be higher here.
@p@errante What is the current state? If I reply and was blocked, then the reply was typed for nothing. I then usually copy-paste the reply into a public post out of sunk cost fallacy ;) but seriously, blocks should show up BEFORE typing up a reply.
Is that still the current state, or do blocks now get hidden fully - you can send your reply, but nobody - not even other users - can see it?
Personally I am rather in #TeamMute. I do not intend to restrict how other people talk to each other. Blocks are for exceptional circumstances only.
