Wait, he didn't just try to claim copyright over AI created material... he tried to claim the AI could copyright it?

Lol. Lmao, even.

I remember idly wondering how DMs worked in Lemmy, and I was kinda shocked when I realized they aren't secure.

I've only found that true for days I am prompting without a specific image in mind. The second something specific gets in my head, and even hours of fiddling and tweaking prompts won't get the result that satisfies me (though I might get a bunch of cool tangential output along the way).

I mean, if it's some attempt at a passion project I guess it could be? But I'm usually just letting my GPU churn out cool wallpapers or character art in the background while I watch YouTube. There's no real soul going into it, but I'm not pretending to put in any, either.

I've always explained it like this:

Every time you press that button, you'll get an image. Maybe even a really good image. But it will never be the image you had in mind.

 

I know this has crossed the minds of more than a few people here over the past several days.

What would that event look like? A new platform that implements ActivityPub and attempts to federate somehow? A completely separate site (à la pxls.space) related only in spirit? Something in between?

Further, how do you think it would play out, given the difference in our userbase and Reddit's?

Similar situation on a larger scale, party was gathering Macguffins to stop the impending abberant-based apocalypse. One of them allowed us a roll on the d10000 Wild Magic table once/week. Some party betrayal happened, and a fight broke out over the artifact. The betrayer finally grabbed it and activated it.

DM rolls. DM gets a 10000. The result is "the stars were right!" which apparently is a reference to the Cthulu mythos about the apocalypse beginning. Cue table meltdown as the DM has to improv the sky opening and the horrors descending an IRL month ahead of schedule.

spoilerTurns out he punched in "roll 10000" into the dice bot by accident instead of "roll d10000" which gave a fixed result, but we didnt realize that till next week.

Definitely improved. I remember having to strangle the upvote button and constantly refresh search results to get them to actually load. For the past 5+ days though its been Reddit-smooth; little sluggish today but not by much.

This is also why those power strip lights can sometimes flicker in the dark. They are sometimes over-driven for extra brightness; this does cut their lifespan, but they usually still last for many years regardless. However, towards the end of that shortened lifespan, the accumulated damage to the electrodes leads to flickering as it struggles to keep the neon excited. However, incoming photons can give just a little extra nudge, which sometimes is enough to keep the neon excited and glowing.

I love the experience so far, but god, do I crave my niche communities.

More devices, content, and people are online than ever before, and the user experience has never been worse. It is one of the most significant advancements in human history, and its not-so-slowly going to shit because of corporate greed.

It's Google's right to serve ads however they want, but that doesn't mean we shouldn't call for a competitor that doesn't treat users like garbage.

 

I've always loved the ideas VE brings to the game, but the balance can get questionable. More than once I've started a playthrough to find the new VFE mod that just released is more problematic than its worth.

If you use the VE suite, are there any you avoid? I'm looking to start a new modded playthrough soon, but it's been a while and I'd love to hear everyone's thoughts.

This was so bad it actually prompted modders to backport all of the 1.19 features to 1.18.

This has been a thing for every major modern version. Its faster for a single enterprising dev to backport things than for the entire mod scene to update to a new version. I distinctly remember playing Blackgear's Caves and Cliffs Backport on 1.16.

There are, however, Forge/Fabric mods that completely remove the reporting system.
