  • Yeah it's a blog platform that has a variety of functionality built in, including their big one: newsletter-style email subscriptions. Everything can be optionally paywalled by the blogger.

  • Less clickbait and more reblogging, but yeah it's not a good piece. It attempts to set a little context but overall fails miserably to explain the complexities around this and fails to evaluate how much credence should be given to the original poster.

  • So sorry. Take care of yourself, and those around you.

  • Never expect journalism from NYT. They exist to manufacture consent for the oligarchs. Have since the Iraq War days. Probably longer.

  • PDF annotator that doesn't overwrite the original PDF

    跳过

  • Pdf is more flexible than printing a doc. The format supports layers, so it would avoid losing information if it saves as a layer visible in the default view. This certainly matters in some cases.

  • Framework under fire for Omarchy/DHH/Hyprland support?

  • When I criticize a fascist I can criticize that individual. When I want someone who advocates harm to be stripped of power, I can mean that person specifically. We absolutely must treat these people as individuals, but individuals can do bad things, they can be wrong.

    Just because the powerful encourage hate speech and violence does not mean that it's okay. Don't forget the solution to the paradox of tolerance: don't tolerate intolerance.

  • Sounds like there's enough here to start a fork.

  • Scientists say X (formerly Twitter) has lost its professional edge — and Bluesky is taking its place

    跳过

  • They do still tend to ban hate speech. I didn't mention it because it's been like that since the start.

  • Couldn't there be an association of professional societies that run their own mastodon instance and can control membership and federation?

  • They banned a bunch of people including Jessie Gender (now reinstated) for mild criticism of the Harry Potter author.

    They banned people for posting old (public domain) short films for fictional violence.

    There was another ban wave when people were criticizing the hateful words spoken by that one guy who was violently killed.

    There's an explicit promise of an upcoming wave of noncon artists. (I'm personally not a fan of such art but don't think they should be banned)

    Some people have been reinstated, but the explicit focus on limiting speech has a real chilling effect.

    I'm positive I've missed some from longer ago.

  • For real. They just can't stop banning people.

  • They've intentionally maliciously set up systems where "carelessness" leads to these malicious outcomes.

    It's not fail safe, nor fail secure. It's fail evil.

  • Don't. The guy is a groyper. He probably thought Kirk was too moderate.

  • Midjourney's troubles get worse as Warner Bros Discovery sues the AI image generator for copyright infringement

    跳过

  • Techdirt has covered this kinda thing for decades. Being familiar with their work I am confident no good will come of a Warner Brothers Discovery win in court. It absolutely won't protect individual artists. It may even have the opposite effect of causing Gen AI models to avoid corporate art and only use art of individual creators who can't afford to sue.

    Maybe the best we can hope for is a private settlement that sets no precedent.

  • Doubting Your Favorite Web Search Engine

    跳过

  • I tried Kagi briefly a while ago. It's fine. Google is much better for obscure stuff if you're willing to use it like people did in the 00s. Refine queries based on results and repeat until you find what you want. It also has the benefit of very good results linked in the Ai summary, which people often overlook.

    Kagi might be better if you want less commercial results for broad terms, but I don't really search that way these days, so I don't need it for that.
