Meta: spreading misinformation is fine and good actually

There are services like 3playmedia, GoTranscript, Verbit.ai. But these jobs pay pennies in comparison to how much time it takes. It’s something to do in addition to a full-time job, not something you can make a living doing.

no, it was when i was a cashier

see-EN instead of SY-en

only ever read the word cyan and eventually learned I’d been pronouncing it wrong my whole life when i said it out loud in conversation

glad to hear it!

if it’s impossible to train AI without abusing copyright why do I see job postings looking for writers to train AI 🤔

i used wordpress for over a decade but left last year when the AI hype started ramping up and there were reports that even selecting the option to turn off post scraping doesn’t work because the bots blocked by the site’s robots.txt doesn’t update.

basically: wordpress doesn’t let you control AI scraping so is it still the best platform those of us worried about that are gonna be able to find?

damn im sorry that you’re only getting dads

This is it, in my experience. They think all you need to read is the bible and no other books. But if you’re only reading the bible, you miss out on everything in all other books, which is a lot.

Her work is so beautiful, thank you for sharing.

Really hoping adblockers for discord become a thing

I find it dangerous to allow the existence of a not-voting community to continue because there is already such tragically low voter turnout that actual progressive local leaders who could affect change at the community level don’t get elected, but right-wingers with rabid fanbases do.

We need to be encouraging people to get involved with local politics and voting in every election so that the government can actually function the way we would like to see it, and have them hold big businesses accountable. The way to do this is by supporting people-powered candidates who don’t take donations from PACs and corporate donors. Grassroots organizing includes electing people-first candidates to positions where they can represent the grassroots.

Make no mistake, I also would like to see the dissolution of the state. A classless, stateless society is possible, but must be achieved by transforming the evil into something that works for all, then its necesity fades away as the infrastructure has been put in place. Unfortunately we are still in a phase in which we need the state, but we will eventually get to the point where we don’t. For now, we need to vote to make it work.

corporate vs. free, then zoom into free and vs. bad instances. we still need something like TheBadSpace to help with safety and moderation.

i still judge people who film in portrait tbh. I can’t stand vertical videos, it’s the main reason i never made a tiktok.
