They are still *somewhat* recognizable by honestly being too smooth. Weird smooth movement, and honestly it's learned to be so focused on not having weird transitions that any borders in the image is almost always smoothed. It kindof looks like it has inconsistently applied very low setting blur.

Made a donothon tracker for @skylordzoey.bsky.social that did streamlabs, crowd control, ko-fi, twitch bits/subs. Four months need to set it up again in panic and it all still works. I am.. more than surprised, there is always *something*.
Anyway check out @yourcaptainlily.bsky.social 's donothon :P

Sure :). The discussion needs to be had. My take is "Everything required to generate the same picture / Video".
This would both make replacing artists unattractive, expose people making creepy as fuck prompts, and still allow for more sane exploration and experimentation.

Honestly, there should be legislation forcing watermarks on ai generated images and videos. Some qr code or something, with prompt/seed/dataset/version on it. We need to know not just that it's AI, but have accountability traceing.
Should have happened a long time ago.

Right? And to look strong doing it? Easy to just go "We care and won't back down".

Followup on this, I joined the hyprland discord server to give it a sniff. Lots of gay content, but homophobic things is still allowed *with* vaxry actually commenting on it. Also racism between pakistani and indians ignored. So the whole "cleaned up our act" is predictably only "slightly" true.

That's a very.. friendly take on it. I took it more like "Listen to what I say here instead of the actions I take". Granted, he isn't guaranteed to be a transphobe or racist, but he sure did take the *action* of trivializing people worried about them funding said racism and transphobia.

LTT *sucks* on ethics, I would honestly more put actual money on them defending this stance in one of their classic tonedeaf pseudo-podcasts.

Plus the "It's a distro, it's not his own" when the page for the distro literally *markets* itself with his name.

Like, literally a bog standard "We will be looking into this further" or "We didn't know about this and we are reconsidering our future endorsement". Like, anyone with a sense of PR could have made a noncommital sentiment that's just a "we see you".

Yeah. I would have bought a framework for a next system, had I had the money, this.. just makes me dump it. They are funding specific people, not the projects, and those people are some vile fucking shits.

i think it is fair to request a statement from @jay.bsky.team on TRANS PEOPLE and where we fit in on @bsky.app.

i think as a transgender journalist, it's acceptable and makes sense for me to ask this

and so, the question, am i not a person as a trans girl and do i not deserve to feel safe here?

"Controlling the narrative" is letting the contestants abuse eachother? Granted, I don't know if the contestants abusing eachother is common in Big Brother.

The thing that sold me forever on it after trying it, apart from the genuine sense of safety, was seeing my partner have a crush on someone else, and not have a dark thought and instead going "Oh my god he is so cute". It's like the bliss of seeing somone oversharing about autistic interests. Great!
