This question is especially for those who have used or are using online dating to meet new people, form relationships, hook up, etc. How do y’all balance the (online) dating scene with your own level of concern regarding privacy/security?...
Greg Rutkowski, a digital artist known for his surreal style, opposes AI art but his name and style have been frequently used by AI art generators without his consent. In response, Stable Diffusion removed his work from their dataset in version 2.0. However, the community has now created a tool to emulate Rutkowski’s style...
Do you know how they recreated his style? I couldn’t find such information or frankly have enough understanding to know how.
But if they either use his works directly or works created by another GAI with his name/style in the prompt, my personal feeling is that would still be unethical, especially if they charge money to generate his style of art without compensating him.
Plus, I find that the opt-out mentality really creepy and disrespectful
“If he contacts me asking for removal, I’ll remove this.” Lykon said. “At the moment I believe that having an accurate immortal depiction of his style is in everyone’s best interest.”
I’ve heard of plume and writefreely/write.as but never used them. A friend is also asking for blogging platforms that are easy to use - they’re non techy.
Cool! Do you mind expanding on how you ping it back to the fediverse?
I’ve heard of webmentions before used for comments and interactions with the fediverse, but haven’t heard of microformats. Would you mind explaining what/how you use them for?
I am not comfortable that signal depends proprietary google library. However, I find that Molly lags significantly behind signal (around 1 to 2 weeks, so maybe not as significant as I thought), but I am just concerned that if there is a security fix in signal, molly will not be able to react as fast....
If you’re like me, you want to see how Reddit looks mid-protest but don’t want to give Reddit any direct web traffic or contributing to their ad revenue. That’s where Libreddit comes in, see github....
Additionally, Libredirect also have a list of instances like farside.link, but with other types of services as well. I didnt do a thorough comparison yet. See github.com/libredirect/instances/…/data.json. I think they also regularly update it.
I think it's the length of the password that affects log-in from mlem. I changed my original password to a shorter one and I can now log in. I also did a couple rounds of changing password (1 more long and 1 more short; both only have -, numbers and letters), and I was only able to log in with the short one. I didn't experiment on how long the passwords can be for mlem to be able to take.
