re: unverified stream of thoughts on ethics and AI, typed on a hike
And the radio channel is never really tuned in properly.
GTA Countrycide
GTA, but with 2 hour drives between mission waypoints and a realistic landscape without any mentionable characteristics in between.
And you will get caught instantly if you do anything evil in public. Because everyone knows you.
I'm trying to figure out if there is still something like #WeAreNameless / #Videomancers happening.
Is there? That would be very cool.
I was wondering after all the #Napoleon recently.
Now I only need to make a proper one that doesm't end too early and has proper captions 👨🏭

Anti-semitism, transphobia
I'd be careful only knowing the story from this point of view...
This threat sounds like he might not be the most reliable resource on earth:

Anti-semitism, transphobia
Yesterday someone posted an article I only just got around to reading.
It deals with antisemitism at SUSE and is very much worth a read:
"The time SUSE, the German Linux company, banned mentioning Jewish holidays."

BIG-ASS NOTE: The same guy is also a self-proclaimed conservative and kind of a transphobe:

So if you're dealing with discrimination at SUSE and want to take him up on his offer to help, maybe think twice.
If you use 2FA in conjunction with MFA it's called n+1FA. I have two step verified this.

For a community, you *have* to ban early and ban often, and defederate early and often.
As an admin, it's your job to protect the ✨vibes✨ of your space, to promote community, and to remove elements that are toxic or harmful.
A service doesn't work the same way. It isn't attempting to create (or promote) a specific vibe, it's just *there*. You make of it what you will, find what you will, and (as an end user) block what you will.
The admin "just" makes the service available.

Dear new users:
It's alright to take your time and get up to speed on here. You don't have to hit the ground running. You might have picked up the habit of interacting with social media as it it were naturally a competitive performance--we all did--but the best thing about Mastodon and the fediverse beyond it is that it's not like that. Take some time to decompress.
It took me about six months to fully drop the armor that I'd been wearing from being on other sites. That was three years ago. This place changes lives.
Also, it's okay to be picky. Sign up at a new instance, if the first one you pick isn't the best fit possible. You'll find your home, and folks here understand it takes trial and error.
Above all, take a deep breath. What feels weird now will make sense pretty quickly.
Glad to have you.
Spooky 11 year old Mac Book Pro stopped routing IPv4 even on live Linux pendrives that worked before. It does route IPv4 when there is no IPv6 available. But it fails even on different routers when it can connect to IPv6. Distro-independent. Triggers my evil-maid attack paranoia.
