- Comment on Jack Black is what happens when the class clown doesn't become depressed and instead becomes even more of a clown 5 weeks ago:
Apparently when KG was blowing out his birthday candles on stage they asked him to make a wish, and he said “Don’t miss Trump next time”. JB is working on his clean image and stepped away, I don’t think they have any beef tbh, but the D is on hold atm. source

Let me be clear so you don’t misunderstand me. When it comes down to prove an image is genuine you haven’t been able to say “look at this picture, it’s real for sure” for almost 30 years. When you want to use a picture to prove something you have to provide much more details about where/how/when/why it was taken, access to those tools won’t change the fact a picture in a vacuum has no meaning.
Like I said, old-man-yelling-at-cloud energy.

Lmao, “but” means your statement can be true and irrelevant at the same time. From the day photoshop could fool people lawyers have been trying to mark any image as faked, misplaced or out of context.
When you just now realise it’s an issue, that’s your problem. People can’t stop these tools from existing, so like, go yell at a cloud or something.

Photoshop has existed for a bit now. So incredibly shocking it was only going to get better and easier to do, move along with the times oldtimer.

This one has images and a diagram. So you pull the lever on the bottom and on top a cigarette will be Pezzed out. Here’s the car it was installed in. Didn’t find anything about it being lit though.

Comment OP is forking Yuzu code, we’re talking about how this is fair or unfair. When you fork DMCA’d code you open yourself up to litigation and having to defend someone else’s code in court.
I won’t, OP might. Did you actually not read the context before replying? Lol.

It would, it has, next step after DMCA even in the EU is legal action, which nintendo already fought in court. I don’t know about you but I’m not ready to defend someone else’s code in court.

- Comment on Are there any innovative platforms in the Fediverse? 6 months ago:
I’m thinking the same way smartphones are solved where only small increments of improvement happen. Radical changes happenen, like folding phones or the rise of Tiktok. Some have long lasting problems like the former, but the latter managed to pick a fight with the giants and come out on top.
Back to market terms, they’re mature but new players have proven to disrupt the market. When the general public start caring about privacy, federated social media will rise. Seeing how that is quite a politicised thing, progress will be slow. I’d love to be proven wrong though.

- Comment on Are there any innovative platforms in the Fediverse? 6 months ago:
I think social media is a solved problem at this point, you’ll need something radical or game changing to actually break through in this market. Combined with the fact that the fediverse is inherently much more difficult to monetize I don’t see many companies taking on that challenge.
FOSS projects might though, but they tend to grow too slow to be disruptive.

- Comment on How much maintenance do you find your self-hosting involves? 6 months ago:
I get it, the inventory is just a list of all servers and PC you are trying to manage and the playbooks contain every step you would take if you would configure everything manually.
I’ll be honest when you first set it up it’s daunting but that’s the thing! You only need to do it once, then you can deploy and redeploy anything you have in minutes.
- Comment on One Login: Towards a Single Fediverse Identity on ActivityPub 6 months ago:
You’re going to love SolidPods, honestly. From the website:
Solid is a specification that lets individuals and groups store their data securely in decentralized data stores called Pods. Pods are like secure web servers for data. When data is stored in a Pod, its owners control which people and applications can access it.
I see no possible way that a centralized identity can be more private that an array of separate ones.
Check out the specifications as well, using Pods you could have seperate accounts on every platform linked only by the ability to login using your Pod.
- Comment on One Login: Towards a Single Fediverse Identity on ActivityPub 6 months ago:
convenience thing first and a privacy thing second
This is convenience and privacy, with a SolidPod you decide who stores the data. It could be you, it could be any federated instance, but that data is encrypted and you decide which application can use which data. They use a WebID (see this as a hash of your unique profile) to identify the user and this would be the only data that is shared between you and any federated instance.

And possible federation as well, very nice. Is this using SolidPods or did they just name there server similarly?

deal with your kid constantly wanting to use your phone
They are being ‘needlessly judgemental’ about this line, you can fret over the importance of having 100% control over the device (which is weird to me as well but that’s besides the point), having your kid conditioned to constantly want your phone is what people are calling you out for.

As someone who used reddit for 14+ years, this place feels exactly like early Reddit, a place where you actually can converse with anyone and contribute instead of yelling into the void. Realistically we will always have both, but many more will join the verse everytime Reddit has an oopsie.
