That attention is the dying embers of the torch he took to his career
This is such bullshit. Models have already consumed all available data and have nothing left to consume, whole needing exponentially more data for progressive advancements
You need yo block the alibaba subnets primarily. In my experience this is where most of them originate
Not gonna argue with you mate, I know we disagree fundamentally on what the fediverse means. Me and most others never will see eye to eye with you with your capitalist growth-focused approach.
Network effects are incredibly strong. Xitter is now a disinformation and fascist hellhole, and yet people who should know better still refuse to leave. We have the advantage that we're not growth focused, so we can can bide our time. The inevitable enshittification will do its job eventually, but there's no telling when the tipping point will happen.
I'm not OK with any business practices of AAA studios, and I don't think there's a way for them to get enough educated consent for creations (i.e. not just someone accepting a shitty TOS on deviantart 6 years ago) to make a good GenAI model. But if I were to put aside the first part and assume a magical reality where the second could manifest without coercion and lies, I would theoretically be OK with it as long as that model passed to the commons when the works it was trained on did as well.
Complete overreaction, but I agree that commercial games should not be using GenAI art. If you're making money out of selling your game, then don't use something which abused to commons to do so. If you're making a FOSS game, I don't see a problem with it.
I'm not close to burnout but thanks for the concern. I don't run my instance like lemm.ee does for a reason ;)
Unfortunately that philosophy led them to close down their instance due to burnout, so maybe it's not exactly a winning one 😅
If we get pwned, or otherwise compromised, one cannot tie your username to an email. The same reason the OP doesn't want to provide an email I guess.
We require a valid email for registration as an anti-spam measure, but you can garble the email afterwards.

As mentioned earlier we were looking for some new mods to join the team. Plenty of you applied for which I am grateful. After checking your profiles and your applications a bit, I decided to go with the following peeps
- @Andromxda@lemmy.dbzer0.com
- @CosmicTurtle0@lemmy.dbzer0.com
- @tenchiken@lemmy.dbzer0.com
As is typical with the way we run this instance, feel free to take bold actions, so long as we can reverse them later if they cause a problem. The idea is that y'all should feel empowered to take direct action to improve things without having to ask for permission.
Welcome to the crew!
Hello mateys, do you want to help steer the ship? Well you're in luck, mod applications for /c/piracy are now open.
After seeing an obviously spam post hanging in the comm frontpage for hours yesterday with a dozen reports for it up, I realize we might need more people to react to it around here.
The job is not very demanding really. We don't get a lot of things violating the rules around here. Just some obvious spam mostly. Expected effort is probably as low as a couple of hours per week. Basically being able to keep an eye for possible reports while you're active through your day. So let us know if you can lend a hand.
- Must be willing to enforce instance rules as well.
- Being very active in /c/piracy will be a big a plus, as that will allow you to notice and respond to problem posts, even before they're reported.
- Knowledgeable about pirate culture and tech a plus.
- Bonus if you're an anarchist as that vibes with our instance's culture, but not strictly necessary.
Looking for 1-2 mods. Preferrably in different timezones.
Post your application in the comments and mention the timezone you're in.

Let's build an app to liberate communications but only release it inside a closed garden. Great idea
