Bluesky CEO can shut her face until her single-server "network" actually talks to the network she's offering her opinion on

@wizardyuuka @coolboymew holy crap that bold stuff really does help you read it faster

Every time I see people go for that shit I'm like "tell me you don't have a little sister without telling me you have a little sister"

The correct thing to do with a little sister is collect embarrassing material to be played back at her wedding.

Artists: Don't I have a right to make money off my my art? In fact, I *do*! It's called *copyright*, chud!

Also Artists: You want a commission of SpongeBob? $100, please! No, Viacom doesn't get to make any money off of this, why do you ask?

They aren't pro-copyright. They're pro-themselves. Which is totally fine, that's how everyone works, but I'm asking that y'all be consistent and honest about it.

@leyonhjelm
Same.

Louis Rossman (I think that's his name?) on YouTube worded it very well, at least in the context of being a computer technician... He outright tells his customers how to do things themselves so they can avoid paying him to do it.

Artists are of the opinion that every time someone hits "Go" on stable diffusion, that they lost a sale. This simply isn't the case. I'd bet that 99% of the time, had the tech not existed, the person using would have just said "Eh, I don't wanna go through the hassle and that's a lot of money for a shitpost", meaning that, tech or no tech, the artist made the same amount of no money.

These are the same people who were absolutely giddy that programmers would supposedly by put out of work by Github Copilot. They told everyone how they're so much better than programmers because they're creative, and a machine can never do what they do.

A machine suddenly does it "good enough" for certain purposes, and now they're upset. It's poetry.

I got kicked out of a League of Legends Discord guild, for saying "For everyone from marketing departments needing stock images and clip art, to individuals needing smut, if it fits the requirements, and it's the cheapest and fastest option, it's going to get used."

That's almost verbatim what I said, and this Discord mod got so bent out of shape that he permab& me and strutted around telling everyone how sick of my shit he was.

Lethal dose for 50% of the population. Usually measured in mg per kg of body weight.

@coolboymew
I believe that's past the LD50 for most people.

@matrix
I think the most salient evidence that the country has stagnated is that we've had two election cycles in a row between the exact same individuals *and* nobody likes either of them.

Is.... Is this your first exposure to Christine Jesus Christ Chan Sonichu?

@mint I've noticed a repeating pattern in the github threads for these features (the current one is a flag allowing/disallowing quoting statuses), and it's basically "oh we know this can't be enforced, but once the feature's added to every software suite, we can seek out and punish instances that make the decision to bypass it"

and we're right back where we started with, anybody *worth* hiding something from isn't going to make a huge spectacle that they've gotten it anyway, they're just going to keep quiet and let you think you're a big winner

@mint how incredibly wasteful to provide zero actual security @DutchBoomerMan @paula @kirby @PeachySummer
