According to Brody (starting at 4:16, 5:45-6:15), the new ToS/Acceptable Use Policy combo prevents you from looking at porn now.
I'm not sure if that's what they've intended, but that's the ramifications of what their changes are implementing.
I bookmarked your comment, to refer others to it when they're getting pissed off at me.
I don't know if it'd be easier than just telling them to block me, but at least now they'll have a choice.
I'm not advocating that you shouldn't do what you want with your own ublock origin settings.
Aka, you do you.
I believe you would support this action because you’ve communicated its for consumption by corporations and AI and not other readers of Lemmy.
This is not true.
The license declaration is supposed to be communicating to all readers, as it lets others know that my content is licensed for free use for open source purposes.
It's not just to prevent for-profit usage, it's also to notify that it's available for non-profit usage.
Also, generally speaking, there may be legal issues with stripping a license declaration from content.
When a slight-of-hand trick is in progress, be sure to watch what the other hand is doing.
This was a good read, thank you for doing this!
As far as the shutdown of the Epic game Dauntless, was any reason given for the shutdown?
From the article...
Musk appeared to accept the challenge, replying Tuesday to one user, "I will do it if the show airs unedited."
"The Daily Show" took notice, reposting the message Wednesday from its official account accepting the terms.

The common version of the phrase...
“The only thing necessary for the triumph of evil is for good men to do nothing,”
The actual version of the phrase...
"When bad men combine, the good must associate; else they will fall, one by one, an unpitied sacrifice in a contemptible struggle."
I like how that percentage number is the same as the temperature of a normal human body. Seems appropriate.
The only person derailing at this point is the person who refuses to engage with other ideas and just repeats “I stand by what I said.”
I'm telling you straight to your (virtual) face, that I read and processed what you opined on, as well as the quotes you included.
I mean no insult to you, but I definately disagree with you on the interpretation of the quotes you included.
And thats ok, well all see things from our own perspectives.
You obviously did not make any attempt to understand Debord’s quote at all if all you took from it is “plagiarism is okay.”
Plagiarism is necessary. Progress implies it. It embraces an author’s phrase, makes use of his expressions, erases a false idea, and replaces it with the right idea.
-Guy Debord, Society of the Spectacle, 1968
That looks like a justification to allow plagiarism to me, thats its ok out of necessity to do.
And I believe my interpretation is the most accurate one that most would take out of reading that whole quote, especially in the context of the conversation we two are having right now. 🤷
And for the record, I completely disagree with Debord based on his quote you supplied.
Again, I'm not trying to trash your belief system, I'm just disagreeing with it strongly, and pushing back against it.
Lets just leave this as agree-to-disagree, and move on, ok?
Are there any Creative Commons licenses out there that include clauses for Warhammer 40k? 🤔 I'd be shock if true. 😜
People focus so much on “but it’s not enforceable” and “you don’t own what you say on the Internet” that they forget it’s a statement of intention.
My inner tinfoil hat persona thinks its just corporate bots/astroturfers trying to shape the narratived away from every adding a license to their comments, as it truly does hold legal power.
Regular people either agree to different degress, or think its harmless and don't care. Its only a few that REALLY REALLY REALLY get bent out of shape about it, for strange reasons (which goes back to fueling my inner tinfoil hat persona).
You’re sharing your support, however nominal, for good causes. I see nothing wrong with that ¯ツ)/¯
Exactly, or moreso, additionally. My license allows for open-source/non-profit usage of my content, giving back to everybody else.
I just don't believe that Corporations should be able to make money off of my content without compensating me for it, as that is one of the fundamental tenants of Capitalism.
You keep doing you, comrade. /gen /pos
Thanks for your support, its appreciated. o7
You’ve side stepped the point I was making yet again to argue something else
Not purposely so. You'll have to elaborate more/better.
Your disagreement doesn’t change laws on the books.
[Citation Required.]
Having said that, I wasn't speaking about laws when I replied, but society norms/beliefs.
Laws segregating adults from children is a thing. But I wasn't speaking about children, but young vs old adults.
That can never happen when the previous generation is unwilling to let go of the reigns and are determined to die in office of at all possible.
So, voting isn't a thing then (assuming we are both in a voting country)?
No matter what you say about it, ultimately, anyone can be voted out of office, even if obstacles are put in the way of that happening.
Democracy is only as good as the people who vote in it.
Ok, well I’m talking about what happens in the real world, not people screaming into the void online. Whether or not you hear more about it towards the older gen online, the real world is ageist against younger generations all the time.
Sincerely would like to hear some examples of real-world being against younger generations examples. Might give me a better idea of what your opinion expressing is all about.
Again though, having said that, not ALL old people (or ALL of any kind of people for that matter) think the same way.
Life is a Volume Control dial, and not an On/Off switch. Its variance, its something that can always be plotted on a bell-curve graph.
I don’t give a wet shit about online people arguing when there’s objective reality to look at for real examples. Good day.
And here you were doing so well, but you didn't stick the landing.
I wish for you a great day today and every day.
I was thinking more Warhammer 40k, but I totally get what you mean.
Ageism already exists in the system and we don’t have an issue with it. It’s just okay to be ageist against young people.
I personally don't agree with this at all.
I don't judge younger people by their age. I look at their ideas, and consider those before passing judgment.
Actually there's a lot of times where I see young people doing something that I would first think "wow that's silly", because I'm set my ways (which I fight every day to try and not be). But then I would actually give the young person some trust and the benefit of the doubt, and actually support them in their beliefs, in a "fresh minds, fresh ideas" sort of way.
My idea is when one generation gets older that they kind of become the assistants of the next generation coming up behind them, and then we just repeat that cycle every generation.
Ageism at any age is wrong, but I've seen it practiced a lot more against older people that I have against younger people (especially online), hence my initial comment.
you literally dismissed the ideas without even considering them
Thats not true. I stand by what I've said.
At this point we've derailed the original purpose of this post enough, maybe we both just move on. It's obvious we won't agree on the matter.
Thanks for the purposeful misreading and at no point making an attempt to engage with a different set of ideas.
Hard disagree. And I stand by what I've said.
We’re done here and I will be shitting on you and your stupid fucking license vociferously from here on out because you’re an arrogant egotistical asshole.
It would probably be easier (and more mature) to just use the block functionality, but you do you, I guess. 🤷♂️
So the TL;DR of your reply is, that it's okay to plagerise, that Humanity needs Corporations to do so to thrive. Gotcha.
For the record, and to repeat myself again, my license allows open-source/nonprofit usage of my comments by Humanity to train their LLMs.
Ah, ok. Thanks.
That's not legal or binding though.
They need to update their ToS legal declarations to specify that explicitly.
