@lenooby09.twinkers.online terrible idea: use something like @attested.network or @atmosphere.money 's lexicons for tracking in-minecraft currency for @atpcraft.at less terrible idea: in game couch+tv to watch @stream.place like @rpg.actor's theater or map art of @pinksea.art, @grain.social, etc

context (if there is a better article let me know): www.theguardian.com/us-news/2026... but right off the bat, a Black person dying during a boat ride in Mississippi with a group of white dudes is super suspicious and this is definitely not the only case of such "mysterious" deaths

Note: Do not harass people (including OP), people have different backgrounds and views wrt. technology. I'm quoting moreso b/c I'm tired about how "AI" gets collapsed into one thing. "Basic machine vision" predates LLMs/current "genAI" by several decades. Please read: witchsky.app/profile/did:...

Blacksky was one of the 1st PDSs to allow open sign ups We are also now the largest PDS deployment that doesn't run any of bsky's code Sorry for the turbulence. It was the one-time price to pay for being able to build features like private accounts or sign-in via phone number w/o waiting on Bluesky

Wow, two researchers were tackling the Navier-Stokes problem for a year without advertising their approach while using OpenAI models for assistance. When OpenAI hears of this they “discover” the exact same approach and won’t disclose whether their model plagiarized the researchers’ private sessions

I shouldn't have to say this but even if you think someone has a bad opinion, that's not a carte blanche license to harass trans people 🙃 this is just one example, I have seen more (+nasty screenshots): mu.social/profile/tifa... it's not AI-specific either this is just the most recent trend

@stefanbohacek.online do you know an alternative to Pixelfed for AP? I don't want to cause drama but there's some things I've heard about the project that makes me want to avoid it, but I would be interested in an alternative. Does Pixelfed use the same Photo Activity as Mastodon?

If we want to avoid the failings of platforms that came before I think it's important we listen and learn from each other. But it requires active listening. Give underserved communities the space and voice to thrive, we all benefit. opencollective.com/blacksky also #givejackyajob 🙏

@cloudflare.social this project is used heavily by the atproto community and the developer isn't a rich tech bro, if there is anyway to help the dev out it would be greatly appreciated it's been very rough for anyone trying to run independent projects and pdsls isn't the only victim of bots
