palestine, Greta Thunberg 

@voidedmain@craftodon.social At the point someone is actively putting themselves in the sights of a fascist military, "stunt" is absurdly understating the commitment.

palestine, Greta Thunberg 

I'm tired of fellow white folks calling the #FreedomFlotilla a "social media stunt".

"It had to be Greta (Thunberg), because white bodies cause moral dilemmas to regimes build on white supremacy. It had to be Greta, because white resistance makes headlines whilst Black and brown bodies are disposable. It had to be Greta, because white privilege has a responsibility to dismantle empires. [...]"

Dat geldt ook voor de rest van de politieke partijen, trouwens. De enige partij die ik ooit gezien heb die daadwerkelijk solidariteit toont en bij demonstraties blijft hangen ook als het niet volgens plan gaat, is BIJ1. De rest is steevast pleite.

@gedankenstuecke @martinvermeer Quite possibly, but if they essentially need a planet-boiling labour exploitation machine to bypass internal governance problems instead of just addressing the editor behaviour and policies, then that kind of feels like all hope is lost already

Dat "tijd voor solidariteit"-documentje van GL-PvdA zou een stuk geloofwaardiger zijn als ze niet steeds met de staart tussen de benen weg zouden rennen bij demonstraties zodra de politie losgaat om vervolgens de schuld af te schuiven op 'relschoppers'

@gedankenstuecke @martinvermeer What really gets me here is that this is indeed a problem that people have been complaining about for years, but it's also a problem that has been functionally *ignored* for years - with attempts at rewriting an article to be more accessible, for example, being reverted because it is "not in an encyclopedic tone".

And it makes me very much question what the real intent is here, and whether the accessibility isn't more of an excuse to play with a new tech toy.

@xChaos FYI, this is called 'remote fetch' and at least GoToSocial has already had this for a while

I find it *really* weird when people complain that AI critics are "not nuanced enough" - I can assure you that a billion-dollar industry does not need you to defend it, and that if there are actual legitimate purposes, they'll shake out regardless of what critics say or do

@mynameistillian @lgm In my own (recorded) recipes I usually just use the descriptors of "a lot", "a little", "tiny amount of", or no descriptor for an average amount, and I've found it to be more than accurate enough, so it'd probably be fine? Most ingredients don't need to be that precise

Question for the young people

When you say, "Wow your lunch looks fire" or similar

In your mind, is that written as:

@gedankenstuecke On the one hand yes, on the other hand it's not promising that it's just been 'paused'

: Is there a list of (software) projects which have knowingly accepted "AI" contributions, or actively use or encourage "AI" for development? :boost_requested:

(Not looking for lists of *suspicions*, just the cases where it's documented and known and intentional)

@mynameistillian Even worse, the kind of tedious cookiewall you're describing is *explicitly illegal* under the GDPR and companies do it anyway because there's barely any enforcement
