@coolboymew This is img2img but also nothing really stops someone from making a cake with this pattern and it looks like a trollface from one specific angle
@mangeurdenuage I simply won't use any VR [anything remotely erotic] unless the device has been disconnected from the Internet, and the disk snapshotted.
@mint Bruh you know how many people type child porn into as:Public?
I'm convinced they do it to like... Spook anybody reading logs. Because they usually first search for phrases that are clearly messages to someone reading logs. @freshmeat@murtumupsu
@Moon >Rumors and tales of Ekko's time-bending antics reached the ears of certain powerful people within the twinned cities. Viktor, a much respected (and feared) Zaunite scientist, has a keen interest in an audience with this defiant genius, and outfitted several of his low-level enforcers with powerful enhancements to encourage the boy to join his services. Piltover-renowned innovator Jayce, meanwhile, was eager to size up the Boy Who Shattered Time and reverse-engineer his technology. However, Ekko values his independence too much, and has no desire to be a part of anyone's agenda.
@Moon This is typically when they'll bray on about PARADOXOTOLERANCE despite Popper specifically saying "don't use this an an excuse to censor lmao" in his book.
Sometimes, when you point this out, they'll 180 on a dime and suddenly say that Popper is an old coot who didn't know anything. But his paradox which they learned from a three panel comic was "clear cut guidance" (lmao) not five minutes before.
So they entirely miss the part where a human, or group of humans, must decide where the line is and handle every corner case.
@coolboymew I put puzzles and etc in my twitch header, html source in my website, places you'd normally expect to find CMS control panels, etc, and the message at the end is almost always HOLY SHIT HOW BORED ARE YOU
A kolektiva.social admin was raided by the FBI, who recovered an unencrypted database backup from their computer.
These are the people telling you how to run your server, and encouraging centralization onto just a few instances.
Please remember, even if your instance is run by a benevolent paragon of praxis, who you're 1000% sure would never ever cooperate with the feds.... there's a whole ecosystem of ISPs, hosting providers, and the admin's very own incompetence that makes it Literally Just Any Other Website.
For example, why was the admin's disk unencrypted? Even if they didn't have a db backup, they likely still had ssh keys that could have been used by the feds to log in to the instance.
Oh and one more thing... Finding about about a mid-May raid in July is fucking unacceptable. When I was raided by the cops in 2011, people on services I operated knew **that hour** and were able to cut access.
I'm a Linux sysadmin, a Python developer, a comedian, and a FOSS proponent. A clown with a technical background. But above all else, I'm an Ekko one-trick. He means the whole world to me. I'm not ignoring you; Your instance admins probably won't let you talk to me, even if you want to. This is because I don't believe anybody is above criticism. If I don't reply within a day, hit me up on email or from another instance. I shitpost, and I protect Ekko. This is my purpose.
