Ironstone - Death So Grim

I’d recommend them.

No, you don’t understand. The child has magical powers that make you love him.

Mouthwashing.

You could do a durge run in Baldur’s Gate 3. Maybe also Hitman, but I think that’s more anti-hero.

This is the thumbnail generation functionality, that would create a local thumbnail for all image posts and keep them around forever. You can disable this by setting image_mode to None in lemmy.hjson and you’ll only store what users actively upload.

Those aren’t mutually exclusive, Synth V uses diffusion models internally and I assume Vocaloid 6 does as well with its boasting of AI features and AI voice banks. It’s different artistically from other diffusion stuff like Suno or Midjourney, but it’s still generative AI.

Modern vocaloid is generative AI and I think making a song with Hatsune Miku is justifiable.

It would be more out of character for Starmer to keep his word.

You were instance banned under lemmy.ml’s rule 4, not the privacy community’s rule 4. ml’s rule 4 is “No Ads / Spamming”. This seems to have been prompted by you reposting a removed post, which frankly seems fair despite what I think of ml’s moderation normally.

Rule 4 does seem to be a bad reason to remove the original post, though I think it should’ve been removed simply for how cringe ‘cuckloading’ is as a term. Stop trying to link sexual deviancy to moral deficiency.

One problem with the whole C2S thing is you can easily end up in the Matrix/XMPP situation where some clients and servers implement some smattering of standards and it just becomes confusing to navigate and use.

This is approximately the situation in the fediverse today, with Mastodon in the role of Gmail. The difference is that email has IMAP and SMTP, client protocols that are not only standardized but universally adopted. Every email server implements them and every email client expects them.

Tuta has entered the chat.

Note, this is ICO not Ofcom, so it’s to do with data collection on minors and not the Online Safety Act.

I’ve seen other people on Mastodon/Bluesky mention that the site takes an ‘anti-censorship’ approach to moderation, so there’s a bunch of far right people doing Nazi stuff on there.

Fit for an Autopsy.

Some clients do it automatically, but this should work: https://lemmyverse.link/startrek.website/post/35769143

Some dev theoretically might not like a mod decision Valve theoretically makes, so the only logical solution is to expect every single dev that publishes on the platform to commit to moderating Valve’s game-specific forums forever.

Yes, good moderation is expensive. Externalising that cost onto devs is, frankly, exploitative. Also, “a few anti-woke weirdos” is a massive understatement. The modern reactionary movement is heavily tied to gaming and Steam plays a major role in that.

So devs not only have to give Steam 30% percent of every sale, but they also have to provide the additional labour of keeping hate speech off the platform in perpetuity.

If Valve doesn’t want to do moderation, they shouldn’t have got into the social media business. It’s their platform and they’re ultimately responsible for it.

If you pump enough money into Linux gaming and do regular sales, a lot can be forgiven apparently. Steam Discussions are one of the most miserable places on the internet I go to semi-regularly and I don’t understand how Steam just gets a pass for the stuff that’s normal there.

gets bored once he ships the MVP

He doesn’t even need to do that, just look at that Whatsapp clone he named after himself.

I was curious to see how they handle this on the fedi side, because they obviously can’t stop you from uploading images to other instances, so decided to do some digging myself.

The fedi code for this is here and looks like this:

# Alert regarding fascist meme content
if site.enable_chan_image_filter and toxic_community and img_width < 2000:  # images > 2000px tend to be real photos instead of 4chan screenshots.
    if os.environ.get('ALLOW_4CHAN', None) is None:
        try:
            image_text = pytesseract.image_to_string(
                Image.open(BytesIO(source_image)).convert('L'), timeout=30)
        except Exception:
            image_text = ''
        if 'Anonymous' in image_text and (
                'No.' in image_text or ' N0' in image_text):  # chan posts usually contain the text 'Anonymous' and ' No.12345'
            post = session.query(Post).filter_by(image_id=file.id).first()
            targets_data = {'gen': '0',
                            'post_id': post.id,
                            'orig_post_title': post.title,
                            'orig_post_body': post.body
                            }
            notification = Notification(title='Review this',
                                        user_id=1,
                                        author_id=post.user_id,
                                        url=post.slug,
                                        notif_type=NOTIF_REPORT,
                                        subtype='post_with_suspicious_image',
                                        targets=targets_data)
            session.add(notification)
            session.commit()

The curious thing here, apart from there being both an environmental variable and site setting for this, is the toxic_community variable. This seems to be a renaming of the low_quality field Piefed applies to communities, which are just communities with either memes or shitpost in their name.

You also don’t get social credits docked for this.

So wait, they pull in Tesseract and don’t use it to make search better? Talk about missed opportunity.

I just guaranteed you on fediseer, so you should be good now.
