In a crowded market, now is a great time for companies to stand out by taking clear stances against data scraping and the unethical use of AI. Cara, the new art platform, is a great example. Along with a clear stance against AI generated content, Cara adds “NoAI” tags to images uploaded by default and offers Glaze to prevent AI unauthorized scraping. https://blog.cara.app/faq#ai-stance
Users are fleeing platforms like DeviantArt and Instagram due to data scraping, and looking for ethical alternatives.
Looking through some old posts on my site and noticing a bunch of twitter embeds are broken. It's probably due to Twitter.com forwarding to x.com, but it's oddly inconsistent. Some old tweets still display, others don't. Even stranger, I'm unable to see some of the tweets when I'm not signed in. For example, I can see this post if I'm logged in, but it says "this post has been deleted" when I'm incognito mode. https://x.com/DocPop/status/1531128882115424257 I'd be sad if that old content isn't viewable anymore.
@docpop A long time ago I replaced all the Twitter embeds I used by screen captures of these tweets, or you can archive them, if you still need a link. But indeed, it's usually not "native" anymore (and access is restricted by Privacy Badger, too)
If you're involved in electronic music-making and you're not white, please DM me on here.
I've just been watching loads of #SuperBooth footage and was aghast at how overwhelmingly white the whole thing is. I've seen more diversity at EDL marches.
So, I'm gonna try and do something about it. And the first thing is organising.
@Jyoti You might browse my Electro/EDM posts (about 250+) from Africa https://amf.didiermary.fr/category/electro-house-edm/
I'd recommend looking at Nyege Nyege for a start.
GQOM is a huge movement from SouthAfrica deeply connected with the LGBTQ community.
He was enjoying a meal at a restaurant when a man interrupted him, handed him a napkin and asked:
“Could you sketch something for me? I'll pay. Name your price.”
Picasso took the napkin, pulled a charcoal pencil from his pocket and started sketching. Using only a few strokes, he drew a goat that was unmistakably a Picasso. He held it up for the man to see. The man smiled and reached to take the sketch. But Picasso withheld it.
@docpop It was in the soundtrack of "Hello, Tomorrow!", S01E02 (closing credits). So had to find it...
It seems it was used in a mod for the Fallout game too...
La démission non datée préventive pour ne pas payer d'indemnité de précarité (et priver le salarié de ses indemnités chômage) ... !
Totalement illégal évidemment.
Que fait la Police (en l'espèce l'Inspection du travail) ?
Et les représentants du personnel de l'établissement concerné ou des établissements concernés devraient réagir immédiatement, ils ne peuvent pas ignorer ces pratiques et en tous cas maintenant ils sont au courant.
@pfefferle
Well, that's not how I thought of it...
The 1st place I looked was the AP main options, as it's where you select "all authors", or not.
Then, individual users' profiles, as that's where many options are set.
There are so few options to set via the users admin page, that it's not a natural place to look for specific instructions pertaining to a transverse use...
@pfefferle the users admin page allows access mainly, and you could have done a specific dropdown, visible, like "change role to"... Hidden like it is, nobody will ever check without prior knowledge
@pfefferle Yep, that would help. But it all depends where the link points to... If it's the users page admin with no further indication, am not sure people will have the reflex to check the "bulk action" dropdown.
