I am urging all content creators to move or at least dub your content to a #fediverse platform like Loops (like IG/TikTok) and Peertube (like YouTube). That way if if you get deplatformed for free

I want to get away from YouTube so badly. As a consumer, not creator. I explore alternative services about once a year, its all just low quality spam? Like I would love to find creators on just that platform (cross posting yt is fine whatever), give me something interesting stuff to watch..

City Docks

Don't like how the leftmost dock slants over at the end. A screw you to that business with the private dock! If that dock were straight then 2 ships could fit in there rather than 1...

Send files between two devices using nothing but a screen and a camera

What a neat concept. I love to see innovation like this. Sure, it is markably worse throughput than basically anything else, but it's something completely new.

The only situation I can see this being useful in is if wireless RF is being monitored, or a mass gathering where uni/multi-cast is simply infeasible.

As it is now, at least. Would love to see it developed further. I have serious concerns at how well it'd function in low light.

The CHATBOT Act Forces One Parenting Model On Every Family

How will they know which members of my family are teens if we never submit to age verification? /s

We run all AI locally, offline (as in iptables blocked). Screw data collecting tech giants. We encourage our kids to use our LAN "chatbot" service. Right now it uses a popular model abliterated (guardrails removed, realize its not the best, want to switch when unfiltered models get better).

Guess what, I'm the parent and can help teach my kids right from wrong. Don't need you doing that for me, big tech. Information doesn't make kids dumb, censorship does.

They must also send alerts if a teen attempts to bypass or disable parental controls.

For shame if my child attempts to bypass something! What, are you scared they might succeed if you don't intervene...?

By no means was I abdicating for inaction. People should absolutely be upset by this and speak out, and vote against those that oppress us.

Locking us out of everything is a bit of a stretch. Even if it comes to that point, its not like illegal content is hard to get (see: torrenting, usenet, MEGA, countless others).

For the average user, sure I guess a "fair" chatbot would be hard to come by (or rather too much work). Isn't it already, though, was kinda my point.
