Mama told me not to come.

She said, that ain’t the way to have fun.

Tug on it. If that doesn’t work, tug on it a lot.

sugar_in_your_tea,

This is a few years old, but:

Swisscows has built its own German-language web index. For other languages, it uses Bing but queries and results are run through a firewall that strips out personal identifiers such as IP addresses.

So it wouldn’t solve the problem here of Bing going down, but it’s certainly an interesting option. I may have to consider switching from DDG, idk.

sugar_in_your_tea,

I honestly have no issues with Bing’s search engine, I was just pointing out that it probably had an outage just like this one.

I’m guessing the results are different based on metadata they each pass?

IDK, but as a Christian who is passionate about both my Constitutional rights and glorifying God, I’m not touching this service with a 10’ pole. In fact, I actively avoid any service where religion is mixed into the advertising, it’s manipulative and gross. In fact, I think it goes against what Jesus taught:

Take heed to your alms, that you do not give in the sight of men with the intent to be seen by them, or you will receive no reward from your Father who is in heaven.

  • Matthew 6:1

Yeah, this isn’t quite the same, but the point seems to be to not make a big spectacle of being devout, but to be humble and keep your attention on God, not on others seeing your attention on God.

And then there’s the “give unto Caesar that which is Caesar’s, and give unto God that which is God’s.” I don’t think a God wants a mobile carrier, he wants charitable, humble hearts.

So no, screw this service and anyone who thinks this is a good idea. If you provide a service, provide the best service you can. If you buy a service, buy a service that meets your needs the best. And if you want to worship God, do it in private, and don’t shout your piety from the rooftops.

sugar_in_your_tea,

I wonder if this would work in the opposite direction as well. By the rule of averages, there should be plenty of dumb to go around regardless of party affiliation.

sugar_in_your_tea,

Yeah, my carrier is an MVNO with very low prices, so I think there’s a good chance their security is just as crappy as this service.

sugar_in_your_tea,

Can it play music from YouTube or Spotify or something? Because that’s literally all my kids want an Alexa device for.

sugar_in_your_tea,

Yeah, HR gets by because of legal compliance, and execs get by through convincing the board to give them X years, and then jump to the next one.

sugar_in_your_tea,

There’s actually a someone I work with that’s basically that. Essentially, their job is to communicate across teams to coordinate product releases. They’re not involved in deciding what’s in those releases, they just needs to know what’s going in each one and when it’s happening. They also do something with budget approvals.

Basically, they just look at Jira and spreadsheets, and I didn’t think they really make changes to either. We could 100% do without that role, at least from my perspective.

Then again, we’re not worried about job security here. We have good funding, we’re expanding our team, and my boss is generally against AI. But if I had to suggest someone to let go, it would be that person. It’s a really weird role and they don’t really have any unique skills, but whatever.

ريال مدريد يؤخر التحاق إبراهيم دياز بالمنتخب المغربي
سيُجبر النجم المغربي إبراهيم دياز لاعب ريال مدريد الإسباني على التأخر في الالتحاق بالمعسكر القادم لأسود الأطلس، بسبب مشاركته في نهائي دوري أبطال أوروبا بين الفريق الملكي وبوروسيا دورتموند الألماني في 1 يونيو القادم.

ويُعد إبراهيم دياز من أبرز النجوم الذين يُراهن عليهم منتخب المغرب مُستقبلًا، بعدما نجح في استقطابه من منتخب إسبانيا الذي كان قريبًا من تمثيله.
إعلان

ومن المحتمل أن يكون دياز آخر الملتحقين بمعسكر “أسود الأطلس”، وقد تواصل مع وليد الركراكي المدير الفني للمنتخب المغربي حول الموضوع، وسيحظى بمساندة جميع زملائه في الكتيبة المغربية الذين يتمنون تتويجه باللقب الأوروبي.

وحدد وليد الركراكي تاريخ 1 يونيو موعدًا لالتحاق لاعبي منتخب المغرب بالمعسكر الإعدادي القادم بمركز محمد السادس لكرة القدم، استعدادًا لمواجهتي زامبيا والكونغو برازافيل برسم الجولتين الثالثة والرابعة من التصفيات الأفريقية المؤهلة إلى مونديال 2026.

وأشاد كارلو أنشيلوتي مدرب فريق ريال مدريد بالنجم المغربي إبراهيم دياز، بعد نهاية المواجهة التي جمعت “الملكي” بمضيفه 4-4؛ وذلك بقوله في المؤتمر الصحفي الذي أعقب اللقاء: “إبراهيم دياز قدّم موسمًا جيدًا للغاية، وساعدنا كثيرًا، هو وخوسيلو وأردا غولر كذلك”.

وكان المدرب أنشيلوتي وراء عودة إبراهيم دياز إلى ريال مدريد هذا الموسم، بعدما لعب الموسمين الماضيين بنظام الإعارة مع نادي ميلان، ويمتد عقد الدولي المغربي إلى غاية صيف 2027 برفقة الفريق “الملكي”، ومن المرجح أن تجدد إدارة الرئيس فلورنتينو بيريز عقده بسبب تألقه خلال الموسم الجاري.

وأَثْبَتَ دياز فاعليته وبأنه “جوكر” حقيقي في يد المدرب أنشيلوتي، سواء لعب أساسيًا أو احتياطيًا في تشكيل ريال مدريد خلال الموسم الحالي 2023-24، حيث أسهم في تسجيل ناديه 21 هدفًا، بتسجيله 12 هدفًا وتقديمه تسع تمريرات حاسمة بعد مشاركته في 23 مباراة أساسيًا و21 احتياطيًا، استنادًا إلى بيانات موقع “ترانسفير ماركت” المتخصص في الأرقام والإحصاءات.

This has nothing to do with Firefox.

وهذا ليس له علاقة بفايرفوكس

It’s never too late! Call Tux and he’ll rush over to do battle with Bill.

sugar_in_your_tea,

Exactly. If you can’t name a victim, it shouldn’t be illegal.

sugar_in_your_tea,

If the images were generated from CSAM, then there’s a victim. If they weren’t, there’s no victim.

sugar_in_your_tea,

Why? Can you elaborate?

sugar_in_your_tea, (edited )

Let’s do a thought experiment, and I’d look to to tell me at what point a victim was introduced:

  1. I legally acquire pictures of a child, fully clothed and everything
  2. I draw a picture based on those legal pictures, but the subject is nude or doing sexually explicit things
  3. I keep the picture for my own personal use and don’t distribute it

Or with AI:

  1. I legally acquire pictures of children, fully clothed and everything
  2. I legally acquire pictures of nude adults, some doing sexually explicit things
  3. I train an AI on a mix of 1&2
  4. I generate images of nude children, some of them doing sexually explicit things
  5. I keep the pictures for my own personal use and don’t distribute any of them
  6. I distribute my model, using the right to distribute from the legal acquisition of those images

At what point did my actions victimize someone?

If I distributed those images and those images resemble a real person, then that real person is potentially a victim.

I will say someone who does this creepy and I don’t want them anywhere near children (especially mine, and yes, I have kids), but I don’t think it should be illegal, provided the source material is legal. But as soon as I distribute it, there absolutely could be a victim. Being creepy shouldn’t be a crime.

sugar_in_your_tea,

Thanks for sharing! I’m going to disagree with pretty much everything, so please stop reading here if you’re not interested.

Imagine the person it is based off of finds out someone is doing that. That causes mental strain on the person…

Sure, and there are plenty of things that can cause mental strain, but that doesn’t make those things illegal. For example:

  • public display of affection - could cause mental stain people who recently broke up or haven’t found love
  • drug use - recovering addicts could experience mental strain
  • finding out someone is masturbating to a picture of you

And so on. Those things aren’t illegal, but someone could experience mental strain from them. Experiencing that doesn’t make you a victim, it just means you experience it.

revenge porn doesn’t actively harm a person but causes mental strafe

Revenge porn damages someone’s reputation, at the very least, which is a large part of why it’s illegal.

Someone keeping those images for private use doesn’t cause harm, therefore it shouldn’t be illegal.

Someone doing something creepy for their own use should never be illegal.

sugar_in_your_tea,

Consent is certainly important, but they don’t need your consent if the image was obtained legally and thus subject to fair use, or if you gave them permission in the past.

That’s why it’s not illegal to call someone a slut (even though that also damages reputation)

It can be, if that constitutes defamation or libel. A passing statement wouldn’t, but a post on a popular website absolutely could. It all comes down to the damages that (false) statement caused.

What if the recording was made without the person’s consent. Say someone records their one night stand without the other person’s knowledge but they don’t share it with anyone. Should that be illegal?

That depends on whether there was a reasonable expectation of privacy. If it’s in public, there’s no reasonable expectation of privacy.

In general, I’d say intimacy likely occurs somewhere with a reasonable expectation of privacy, at which point it would come down to consent (whether implied or explicit).

sugar_in_your_tea,

If the person is a slut it wouldn’t be libel but it would still damage reputation

Sure, in which case the person wouldn’t legally be a victim. It’s completely legal to tell the truth.

But that strays a bit from the point. Making fake porn of someone is a false reputation of that person’s character, and thus illegal, but only if it actually causes damages to reputation (i.e. you distribute it). Or at least that’s the line of argumentation I think someone would use in states where “revenge porn” isn’t explicitly illegal.

Even if the person is a porn star, the damage is that the porn is coming from somewhere other than the approved channels, thus the damages. Or maybe it’s lost sales. Regardless, there are actual, articulable damages.

The reason for the illegality is the lack of consent not the reputation damage.

Maybe in states where it’s expressly illegal. I’m talking more from a theoretical standpoint where there isn’t an explicit law against it.

If there’s no explicit law, tht standard is defamation/libel or violation of a reasonable expectation of privacy.

we make exceptions for especially sensitive subjects such as sex.

That’s the reasonable expectation of privacy standard (that applies inside houses when in bedrooms, bathrooms, etc, even if it’s not your house). If you’re doing it in public, there’s no reasonable expectation of privacy, so I think a court would consider filming in that context to be legal.

Then again, this could certainly vary by jurisdiction.

I also believe that people who uploaded photos of themselves/their children did not consent to having their photos used to make sexual content

They don’t need to consent for any use, if it’s made available for personal use, then any individual can use it for personal use, even if that’s sexual content. As long as they don’t distribute it, they’re fine to use it as they please.

If you want control over how how content is used, don’t make it available for personal use.

but from what you said you think it would be okay

Yes. I certainly don’t want them to do that, but I really don’t want to live in a society with the surveillance necessary to prosecute such a law. Someone being creepy with pictures of my kids is disgusting, but it honestly doesn’t hurt me or my kids in any way, provided they don’t share those images with anyone.

So yes, I think it’s a necessary evil to have the kinds of privacy protections I think are valuable to have in a free society. Freedom means letting people do creepy things that don’t hurt anyone else.

sugar_in_your_tea,

Speech to text exists.

sugar_in_your_tea,

Eh, can’t fault and old guy for loving heavy metal.

sugar_in_your_tea, (edited )

And sand/dirt after a windstorm, at least in my area. They’re really quite useful.

sugar_in_your_tea,

Not gonna 3d print a rake.

sugar_in_your_tea,

Hey, don’t spoil the plot!

sugar_in_your_tea,

Instead of a movie, can we just get another game or two?
