Reframing smart glasses as 'pervert glasses'
I remember when the google glasses first came out years ago, people called the people using them 'glassholes'

The Global Rise of Women’s Flag Football
Reply in thread
The documentary this article is talking is an awesome documentary on Women's Flag Football. It's a great profile on the champion Mexico Women's Flag Football team. Did you even read the article?
Have you seen the documentary? It's on Amazon Prime.
I just watched a Mexico vs Italy Women's Flag Football match last night. So it is global.
Also NFL just announced that they are starting up official flag football teams: https://www.nfl.com/news/nfl-partners-tmrw-sports-new-professional-flag-football-league

they even brag about creating accounts specifically for this purpose
Yep! I've seen it happen me, which is why I created a new identity for myself, so I could get away from those guys.

It seems that I have left in time to not catch an AI summary about myself. XD
Don't be too excited. That's been done on here at Lemmy too. I think it was called santabot (on slrpnk instance I think), and it would ban/unban you from some guys community purely based on your upvote/downvote ratio even if you had never heard of his community, without any other input. The mod log was filled with "xxxx banned. xxxx unbanned. xxx banned, etc."
It was controversial, and some called him out on it, but others thought he was doing awesome with it. He mentioned that he was almost done working out the kinks in it and would be offering it to other mods to use.
He's no longer around now, but I was surprised the admins let him keep using that bot the entire time he was here.

Agreed. And like I mentioned earlier, I was a little troubled by how many were ok with it. Luckily I didn't see it used anywhere else, and haven't seen it since the guy left.

Sure, but this was a little more than an automod, because it was based on what you did outside of the community, and banned you based on how many downvotes you got from other people.
So let's say you got 1 upvote for your comment yesterday. Then 2 downvotes today. That unrelated comm, would ban you even if you had never been there,. had never posted in the comm, or even heard of the comm.

I Made a Video About the Fediverse

PeerTube is pretty underwhelming for now...but since you already have the content, it'd be easy for you to start posting there. The more people who post there, the less underwhelming it will be.
