@Gargron so that means that for the moment you continue federating threads at the instance level? Is this subject to ongoing scrutiny in regards to metas behavior?

@foone I really wonder why anybody still uses WinRAR, I thought 7zip would've runn WinRAR into the ground by now 🤔

@Gargron ah. I was wondering how I could score higher than you despite trailing in basically every metric - excluding number of posts, as I generally talk too much 😅🤣

@Gargron what is the top x % ranking based on? Number of posts?

@Gargron I find it amazing also on YouTube. I watch some people that monitor the current war situations in ukraine and the middle east and they can't use the words "kill" or even "terrorist", "hamas", "hezbollah" and more without at least getting demonitized or blocked. It is complete bonkers and only going to get worse with every state in the world now taking shots at forbidding unwanted things

@nixCraft I don't like that it is updating out of band. I prefer the update happening centrally like with yay under arch or apt under ubuntu

@Gargron is this exclusively for this instance or for the network as a whole?

@Gargron I feel he urgently needs an account on plushies.social!

@Gargron Manhattodon? 🤔

@Gargron this is basically just a symptom of how utterly fucked up IP and copyright are nowadays. It empowers IP-owners to charge ridiculous rates per language they license out, and since per design there can only ever be one rightholder to a given series or movie, Streaming services can either pay or walk away.

@Gargron I don't believe it to be so black and white. I mean it's always a question of focus in my opinion. Having e.g. some procedurally generated crowds as background to just flesh out an image that doesn't focus on background would be a valid usecase in my opinion. But yeah, fully-generated images are essentially just minced meat of everything that came before.

@nixCraft how does NTFS compare against this?

@Gargron
So far, in every ad that had 'AI' in it, I replaced it with 'intransparent surveillance desaster' and the ad still made a terrible amount of sense 😅
