I was all ready to give credit where credit is due until I realized that yet again they only care when it impacts them directly. So predictable for Republicans.

Just peek at his profile and it will all make sense.

TL;DR don’t feed the troll.

Reminds me of one of the truest comics I ever read.

Is this a euphemism?

Yes but also that mirror positioning. The last thing I want to do while shitting is stare at myself shitting.

Every word of this is true, and it requires very little conversation with anyone on the right to see how true it is.

Lemmy gold for you sir or madam.

I would love to know the context behind the photo.

I understand why folks think violet is a LARP, but I don’t. She’s too matter of fact about her posts and doesn’t seem to care very much if folks give her attention for it or not. She barely comments in reply to her posts, and most of all she has explicitly said she’ll never share a pic of herself.

I think someone larping would be way more over the top with what and how they posted, would post and comment more frequently, and would for sure generate some AI thirst trap (or just steal someone else’s picture) and claim it to be her.

YMMV, and reasonable folks can disagree, but I think violet is exactly what she claims to be.

Thanks for the info!

Nice try Violet08, you’ve exposed your alt account.

Can I just have one that works like it did 20 years ago? Is that so much to ask?

It’s up to the admins of the instances and not the devs to curate and this is one of the main reasons why I don’t trust the piefed dev.

Can you elaborate on that? Asking for curiosity, not to challenge you.

What don’t get is how they didn’t see the “invisible” text when they were copying it to paste it into the AI. Any tool I’ve ever used to select and copy text highlights it in a way that would show the “invisible” part. Was the question just so long that they could easily miss it?

I love the story but I’m a little skeptical just because of this one detail.

Hmm interesting for sure thanks for the write up!

Thank you!

This is basically history repeating itself again with the Beehaw defederation.

I’ve been around the fediverse longer than the age of my account would suggest, but I missed the drama around Beehaw somehow - what was the story there?

Ah thank you very much! :)

Ok this one has me scratching my head. Any chance someone would be willing to explain it in english?
