My thoughts on AI Ethics?

I think protogens are pretty friendly

@d @photos @eleventy oohhh been thinking about doing similar with 11ty to replace an old no longer supported image gallery tool my site is based on. Cool to hear you had success with this setup!

Every time an autocorrect system "corrects" a non white name or a set of neopronouns, I should get to feed one programmer to crocodiles

Gathering specific combat music and generating some TTS clips for tonight's session. It's gonna be a weird one!

Solid State Drives implies the existence of Liquid Anarchist Walks.

@grumpygamer they want you to install their Steam mobile app for an auth tool, this way they can show you game ads hah.

Me to my legal Dependants, my D&D party.

@hacks4pancakes I sometimes forget LinkedIn is even treated like a social media platform and not just a weird modern requirement for having some careers while applying for jobs.

Whether you are disabled or not, accessibility is really useful for everyone. Accessibility makes social media easier to use and lets your posts reach a wider audience.

You can find out how to make your posts more accessible at:

Special shout out to @norrumar who has just created a Spanish language article about Mastodon for users of the free open source NVDA screen reader:

Folks, I want to boost your lovely posts, I really do but I won’t if you don’t write image descriptions (alt text) so people who use screen readers can also experience them.

It doesn’t take long to write one.

And if you’re posting an image of text and you have an iPhone, you can select the text from the image with a long press and copy/paste it.

Even Linux has apps that do this (like Frog: tenderowl.com/work/frog/)

@thevglibrary generally speaking alt text describes the most important bits of what the image wants to convey. That often means vibes, message, intent, text within the image, and potentially additional context. Wishing you luck and use it as an experiment to keep getting better! Everyone appreciates the effort.

Happily using Gitlab dode doooo!

My fulltime career using GitHub ack, I need to update my avatar to still save Drop ICE in 2022? AI is stealing my code for training purposes without my ability to opt out?

Oh you're doing Agile? That's cute.

Me, an intellectual, I'm jaded. Help lol
