verdict: dry

We used to call residential proxies (software that runs unexpectedly on a random person's device and relays someone else's internet traffic to hide its origin or get around network-based restrictions) "malware," and an application which appeared to be legit but did something like this behind the scenes was called a "Trojan horse"...until someone realized they could bury it in an app's terms of service and do it "legally."

and to make it more explicitly political, attribution is one of the most basic ways we can acknowledge that our labor connects us to one another. all the essentials and conveniences we enjoy come from someone and we should name them, respect them, and compensate them in gratitude. the removal of attribution is closely connected to, is a means of, the exploitation of labor. capital's ideal docile subject gets treats from heaven and neither knows nor cares where they come from.

attribution is a bedrock social concept for me. it's a major way we navigate the world, discover new things, develop taste, interact with one another in a positive way. even in a fully post-capitalist world it would still be important.
what's that band you're listening to? who drew that art on your t-shirt? that sandwich looks good, where's it from? that's clever, who said that? i trust [person's] opinions on [subject]. etc.
anything that removes or muddies attribution is socially corrosive.

🦨a lot of people are gonna look at code the same way they look at science publications full of technical words, it all just looks the same to it so surely the AI is doing it right, right?

it's a similar thing with AI translation, they dont know the target language so they can't see how bad it is

I folded another Origami figure. It's the Grim Reaper, but in his leisure outfit — the purple cloak. 😅
I don't have black paper. It would look great in black. Or white as a more generic ghost.
I think the final figure looks pretty awesome. It has a nice 3D look to it and it wasn't all that hard to fold. Not easy enough that I could do it again without instructions, but there were no hiccups while I was folding along with the video. 😊

Sure sex is good or whatever [citation needed] but have you ever cuddled platonically with an 11/10 hot friend while autistically yapping about special interests, eating pizza and watching a mix of trans-made media and queer improve comedy?

...okay, this is the Fediverse, so for a lot of you that's like, something that happens an average of several times a week if not outright daily, but it's still good shit
