I don’t think you can add any extra text when crossposting with Lemmy, but I’m not sure what instances like kbin allow.

Either way, I would expect that treating it the same way that the browser view currently does would be a good start for this specific case.

Is this how we want it to work though?

There’s a lot of context missing on one post, while it’s visible on the other. And this isn’t a problem when viewing these posts through a browser instead of Voyager.

I agree with others on here. Looks like a European Starling.

Here’s a similar looking one that was identified in North America:

I would recommend a tool like iNaturalist for trying to identify birds (and plants, insects, other animals, droppings, tracks, etc).

Most of that just looks like carpet shading, where rubbing the carpet one way looks darker compared to rubbing it the other way. http://carpetswalltowall.com/shading-footprints-pooling/

However, the brown stain on the far right definitely stands out.

This is why I prefer it when people specify what kind of “AI” they’re talking about rather than just saying “AI” as a buzzword. I definitely agree with Derbauer here… this is painful.

Great video, he breaks everything down really well…

I might have to start linking to this video rather than trying explain what AI is vs what AI isn’t to those who like to make general statements like “AI is a scam!”.

What @[email protected] seemed to be implying is that direct messages on Mastodon should be considered “public” rather than “private”.

I’m assuming that’s along the same lines of how Lemmy users generally think that their upvotes/downvotes are private when in reality, if you know how to look for them, you can see them.

Ah, I see. So it’s the same mistake that Lemmy users make when thinking that Upvotes/Downvotes aren’t public.

It sounds like DMs on Mastodon are public, but are commonly mistaken to be private then?

They’re called DMs not PMs

? Did you mean that the other way around? And if you did… forgive me, I don’t really use Mastodon. I was never much of a twitter fan. I don’t really like how all of my likes are public (although I guess I have had to get used to that with Lemmy).

Hmmm it was even able to pull in private DMs.

Maybe private DMs on Mastadon aren’t as private as everyone thinks… that, or the open nature of Activity Pub is leaking them somehow?

Edit - From the article:

Even more shocking is the revelation that somehow, even private DMs from Mastodon were mirrored on their public site and searchable. How this is even possible is beyond me, as DM’s are ostensibly only between two parties, and the message itself was sent from two hackers.town users.

From what @[email protected] mentioned below, it sounds like this shouldn’t be very shocking at all.

Not just the U.S.
Avalanche Studios has their headquarters in Sweden and they’re closing their studio in Canada (per this article). Additionally, Phoenix Labs (Dauntless & Fae Farm) is a Canadian game developer and they just let go of a significant number of developers and cancelled all future projects (about 3 weeks ago): https://www.pcgamer.com/gaming-industry/dauntless-developer-phoenix-labs-lays-off-employees-and-cancels-in-development-projects-says-its-the-last-resort-to-ensure-phoenix-labs-can-survive/

While Microsoft was the one shutting down multiple Game Developers last month, those studios are also based all over:
Tango Gameworks - Japan
Alpha Dog Games - Canada
Arkane Studios - (Headquarters in France, but shutting down their Studio in the U.S.)
Roundhouse Studios - U.S.

Edit: formatting

How many game studios is that within a 2 month period?!

SD? SD 3? The weights? All the above?

Stable Diffusion is an open source image generating machine learning model (similar to Midjourney).

Stable Diffusion 3 is the next major version of the model and, in a lot of ways, it looks better to work with than what we currently have. However, up until recently we were wondering if we would even get the model since Stability AI ran out of funding and they’re in the midst of being sold off.

The “weights” refer to the values that make up the neural network. Basically by releasing the weights they are essentially saying that they are making the model open-source so that the community can retrain/fine-tune the model as much as we want.

They made a wait list for those who are interested in getting notified once the model is released, and they turned it into a pun by calling it a “weights list”.

Correction: “Weight List” ;)

Heh, that’s why we refer to other people who don’t geocache as “muggles”.

Pastel de Natas (Portuguese Custard Tarts) at Trader Joe’s in the U.S.

They only have them in the spring and they run out fast.

Well… good thing I’ve been buying what I can through GOG… but this is terrible news, especially with the way Microsoft has been shutting down gaming studios recently.

Edit: meh, this just sounds like clickbait:

• The leak comes from an unknown and unreliable source in the gaming industry.
• Microsoft’s acquisition of Activision Blizzard faced regulatory challenges, making the merger with Valve unlikely.

This sounds like what TOR users run into. Are you always clearing your browsing data/cookies in Firefox? A fairly blank slate there will raise some red flags in a lot of systems causing the captchas to be aggressive.

Otherwise, maybe you just ended up with a bad IP address that was previously being used for suspicious bot looking traffic?

I would definitely submit a ticket to Etsy about this issue, but this is likely an issue with captcha or whatever they’re using to detect “suspicious activity”.

Edit: I just tried logging in to Etsy and it gave me about 4 captchas for signing in with a “new device”.

Looks like google really needs help training their self driving cars.

Interesting. Didn’t know this was a feature. How does the filter work? Completely hides comments/posts containing the keyword?

Or does it do something like Steam does by turning every letter into a ♥?

I tried to add the word “swipe” to the filter list, but I can still see the other 2 comments on this post along with the word “swipe”.

Can you provide some context for this? Which petition is this about?
