Agreed, hearing about AI is unavoidable just by the sheer number of non-tech people who are impressed by novelties such as generative AI and ChatGPT. I have to tell them I'm not into that stuff at all.

Apologies if it's hard to follow; I basically had to brain-dump the best I could because I'm still figuring this out from firsthand experience, and it isn't like this is a well-known phenomenon yet. Maybe I'll have a better way to organise my thoughts when I learn more about it myself.

Loving the downvote and the hyperbole to ignore the fact that even the current state of "artificial intelligence", as the general public understands it, is still extremely dangerous to society. This doesn't have to escalate into warfare to be a credible threat. Stop living under a rock.

Fearmongering?

No, run. This is a warning. People (the ones who support AI) are after devs like they serve CAPTCHAs to bots now. It's psychological warfare.

Well-said? He approached a sensitive topic by prefacing it with horse shit about how all "free[-]speech absolutists" in cyberspace are not victims of hate speech, therefore they go out of their way "to defend hate speech". This is false, and anyone who does this and claims to be such an absolutist, is lying to themselves and to everyone else around them, because they do not understand what free speech even entails.

I'm targeted (either personally or blanketed) by all manners of what most people would call bigotry and hate speech, and I still defend the position that such speech should be considered protected under free-speech doctrine, because for one, it gives me a clear indicator of what those people really think about me, rather than anyone having to beat around the bush and hope that I understand that they're a transphobe or whatever. And for another, it empowers me with the exact same language I can use to defend myself. On top of that, this kind of shit enters dangerous territory when it comes to the rights of parody authors or, say, black comedy. Fuck that.

Calls to action (the "shouting fire" or, more relevant here, calls for genocide or other hate crimes) are not protected under free speech. Devault is kidding himself by misinterpreting or simply not bothering to understand a definition that has been solidified by many a historical philosopher. They all came back with the same conclusion, and somehow that's lost on the masses today.

I admit to not having read the full article because I already have an idea of what the rest of it is about (after hearing what Devault dealt with early this year, from his own talk with me) and I don't feel comfortable endorsing this post at all when the entire first page is blasphemous.

All instances I see federating to everyone else, they all handle CSAM reasonably quickly

My experience has been that Maps works fine without Google Play services, the only issue being a popup/notification that says you "need" services to use the app.

They probably block commonly-abused user-agent strings such as wget and a blank string. A custom string may work, or just spoofing a browser.

I hate useragent strings, but with the current state of the Web, your UA sticks out more if you omit the version header rather than copying a common one.

That's still no excuse for a webserver to deny requests by (lack of) UA string, but I doubt that what you're doing is beneficial for any reason.

People can use things occasionally without having an addiction that impacts their lives.

Your site blocks read-only access via Tor with a CAPTCHA.

I don't know why you're getting downvoted when you're correct here.

>some usernames are green

New user.

>I do not want to know

Too bad :)

I don't use Github, but thanks for confirming you received it, and feel free to take time to get around to it.
