To all of those people running, moderating, and maintaining #Mastodon, #Pixelfed, and other #Fediverse instances, no matter how small:
Thank you
@YsengrinWolf It's a beautiful view! 💜🐺
the UK Online Safety Act covers GitHub Issues, Pull Requests, and Discussions too.
I'm suddenly wondering how Microsoft intend to moderate the world of OSS discussions, because that has always been rife with "harmful but not illegal" content such as sexism, racism, transphobia, ableism. I'm not even sure it's a stretch to say that some individuals have groomed vulnerable people on there.
the OSA is incredibly far reaching.
The enshittification of Spotify continues.
You signed up to pay $10 a month to hear your favourite artists.
After taking your money, they began slowly substituting real artists with muzak.
i like to go back and watch alice the rat's auction vids. if you ever feel like you're not a "real artist" because you draw furry art just keep in mind that people bought these on public television all the way back in 1992
@jihyn Some things are a bit more expensive in the show, especially if you don't have a membership (membership is worth it), but they do at least have sizes up to 3XL in store (at least my local one does) where as most places really don't.
Sabot in the Age of AI
Here is a curated list of strategies, offensive methods, and tactics for (algorithmic) sabotage, disruption, and deliberate poisoning.
🔻 iocaine
The deadliest AI poison—iocaine generates garbage rather than slowing crawlers.

🔻 Nepenthes
A tarpit designed to catch web crawlers, especially those scraping for LLMs. It devours anything that gets too close. @aaron

🔻 Quixotic
Feeds fake content to bots and robots.txt-ignoring #LLM scrapers. @marcusb

🔻 Poison the WeLLMs
A reverse-proxy that serves diassociated-press style reimaginings of your upstream pages, poisoning any LLMs that scrape your content. @mike

🔻 Django-llm-poison
A django app that poisons content when served to #AI bots. @Fingel

Call the Nurse, I escaped & went out on a Tuesday. Shouldn’t be allowed
Came home with a Jukebox that ran on CDi Discs
Never even knew they made such a thing
I’m assuming it’s a Standard, BGM, Green Book, 8 Band, CD Interactive Disc
With the RMJ Unit converting Button Presses to Track/Title.
I shall investigate & report back.
@jihyn Clothing wise I've found the Peter Storm range from go outdoors to be pretty good for the price, boot wise I got some hitechs last year and they've been great.

@Jencen *squeezes* Sorry to hear that goo
@JigglyWyvern Oh 100% I totally have zero libido when I'm feeling really dysphoric. Unfortunately I haven't worked out a way of getting around that but my libido did come back when I was feeling less dysphoric.
@avon_deer I mean you could have just replied to me directly ;)
My point isn't to use email and nothing else, but that is the one thing they can't take away from us. If you've got all your friends email addresses you can at avoid losing touch when we work something out.
Something that might be a good idea for the future; collect email addresses from all your friends and add them to your address book and then make sure that's backed up regularly.
Also let your friends know if you change your email address.
I haven't done this in a long time but it's something I am going to start doing again.
@avon_deer I 100% agree, but our community is strong and we'll get through this.
@avon_deer I'm not far away and the offer to hang out sometime is still open
@avon_deer Sorry, I meant in an offline way.
