Because the far right Israeli politicians are buddies with far right Christian nationalists (who in turn make up many of the Nazi groups)

They (in particular groups like AIPAC) prefer to reject the opinions of actual Jewish people outside Israel in favor of working with local extremist groups. Israeli far right jews frequently call other jews "antijewish" just for calling for peace. And Nazi types love to help them out. Groups like jews for peace gets ignored because nobody supports them publicly, and Nazi types gets protected by right wing politicians like Republicans.

The only thing they have in common is that all those groups are totalitarian authoritarians, with similar obsessions about Israel's borders. You'd think those extremists would have a bit more survival instinct - but who am I kidding, if you have brains and common sense you don't become that kind of extremist...

And as usual it's a problem because conservatives funnel money to hate groups like this, in all countries

The police regularly dismiss unfounded reports without additional action, it's how they're supposed to respond. They're not supposed to tell people "this thing you're doing is neither illegal or harmful and the people who got upset had to search for it to find it, but they did get upset so you should stop"

You need to set up a publicly accessible device (in this case the VPS) as your IPv6 gateway

So you set up your VPN connecting your network to the VPS (should probably be set up from the router) and set your router to advertise an IP adress for the VPS which is routable from your local network as the gateway address (and should probably also run DHCPv6 for your network)

(note, I have not set up this stuff myself so I can't help with implementation details)

More ambition, lol. The K9 Mail app now has backing by Mozilla

Because certainly they don't think brigades harm communities if they won't trust mods to set subreddits as private

[–] Natanael@slrpnk.net 6 points 5 days ago

"we won't let moderators harm their communities by not letting them eg. protect their communities from brigades and similar harassment"

Sure you thought that through, reddit admins?

Microsoft had a dual screen foldable like that, then stopped supporting it

Human involvement isn't the rule though. Again, that which ends up in fixed form has to carry expression by a human. Otherwise everything from dirt stains to footprints you accidentally create would be under copyright.

The prompts aren't generally considered enough because there's too little control over the final expression, the same prompt can create wildly different outputs.

[–] Natanael@slrpnk.net 9 points 6 days ago (3 children)

The rule is already human expression in fixed form, of creative height. So you have to demonstrate that you the human made notable contributions to the final output.

Using stuff like controlnet to manually influence how images are shaped by the ML engine might count, there's some great examples here (involving custom Qr codes)

It's human expression that is protected by copyright. Creative height is the bar.

If you've done nothing but press a button there's often no copyright. Photography involves things like selection of motive, framing, etc. If you just photograph a motive which itself doesn't have copyright, then what you added through your choices is what you may have copyright of. Using another's scan of a public domain book might be considered fair use, for example (not much extra expression added by just scanning)

Independent creation is indeed a thing in copyright law. Multiple people photographing the same sunset won't infringe each other's copyright, at least not if you don't intentionally try to copy another's expression, like actively replicating their framing and edits and more.
