This new dating app will use facial recognition technology to exclude trans women
  • kazerniel kazerniel 4mo ago 100%

    I’ve read that the transition itself is usually a smaller part in addition to what has been already dealt by nature

    This is unfortunately not the case for most trans people. I think it's quite rare that a trans person would consistently be able to pass (=blend in) before HRT.

    There are some trans people who are also intersex, which is the condition when one's biological sex (without medical intervention) doesn't fit neatly in either the male or female boxes. But most trans people aren't intersex and about half of intersex people aren't trans.

    Edit: But I do agree with your main point, there's simply no way an app like this could identify trans people with the vast range of facial features humans have. It will both exclude many cis women and allow many trans women, as Giggle did a few years ago.

  • Linux May Be the Best Way to Avoid the AI Nightmare
  • kazerniel kazerniel 5mo ago 100%

    Switching to Linux means you might have to say goodbye to certain proprietary software and games. Applications like Adobe Creative Suite

    as someone whose job mostly involves Adobe programs and whose many hobby is gaming, I think I'll stick with a Windows with all the AI crap disabled via group policies and O&O Shutup 😐 For now...

    > Of the 73,257 NFT collections we identified, an eye-watering 69,795 of them have a market cap of 0 Ether (ETH). > This statistic effectively means that 95% of people holding NFT collections are currently holding onto worthless investments. Having looked into those figures, we would estimate that 95% to include over 23 million people who’s investments are now worthless.

    Stop using Brave Browser
  • kazerniel kazerniel 1y ago 100%

    Tbh the homophobia was just the last straw on the hill of crypto nonsense they piled on the browser over the years. I've been increasingly uncomfortable with Brave the more "fluff" they added, so going back to bare Ungoogled Chromium has been pretty good.

    I used Feedly for many years, but recently switched to Newsblur, and I love that it lets me filter out posts by tags or keywords, finally don't have to use external tools for it.

    it was a similar article that made me switch from Brave to Ungoogled Chromium a few weeks ago, as a backup browser for the handful of sites that don't work in Firefox.

    Üdv! Bár én sem élek Mo-n, de azért vannak azért még független, magas színvonalú médiumok, pl.: hírekre Telex vagy 24.hu, mélyebb oknyomozó anyagokra Átlátszó vagy Direkt36.

    Mo-n élő családtagoktól is azt hallom, hogy az ország egyre menetel a fasizmus irányába, Orbán bandája már minden állami intézményt kifosztott, a szegényekre és kisebbségekre pedig nagyon rájár a rúd. És nem tűnik úgy, hogy ez akár középtávon is változna.

    Why not? I still look up information there too, but I use an adblocker, so it's not like Spez is profiting from me.

    If you don't want to give them traffic, you can always visit the search result URL through the Wayback Machine or Archive.today.

  • [Discussion] Threads and Tumblr are working on implementing Activitypub. How do you think this will affect fediverse
  • kazerniel kazerniel 1y ago 100%

    I also have limited understanding, but these are huge corporations with huge userbases. If they start giving "helpful" input on how the ActivityPub protocol should develop, it may exert a strong pressure/influence due to their sheer size.

    I know it's not the same situation, but it reminds me of how Google keeps trying to push shady stuff into Chromium, even though it's supposed to be free, open-source software.

  • kazerniel kazerniel 1y ago 90%

    I think this is their attempt to EEE (Embrace, Extend, Extinguish) the Fediverse, so I'm strongly in favour of immediately defederating corporate instances as soon as they are created.

    elektronikus is akad: https://www.accuradio.com/electronic/

    Az tetszik AccuRadioban, hogy lehet számokat v előadót bannolni, és azt sosem adja onnantól. Elvileg néhány számonként lennének reklámok, de az uBlock Originnal egyáltalán nem kapok, viszont a mobil appon elég zavaró volt.

    Following ChthonVII's idea, I'm mirroring my probably only interesting [post](https://www.reddit.com/r/GuildWars/comments/zfd02x/clips_from_the_recent_developer_livestream/) on the subreddit :D --- Finally got around to watch the 2-hours long [GW1 segment](https://www.twitch.tv/videos/1643803264?t=14h16m12s) of the recent Extra Life 2022 ArenaNet livestream. The devs had a lot of interesting insights and amusing anecdotes, so I made a bunch of clips - sharing them here in case someone else haven't had the time to watch the whole thing.

(GW2 had 350 developers at launch.) Twitch only allows max. 1 min long clips, so sometimes I had to cut off an interesting follow-up - if you want to see how a clip continued, click Watch Full Video.
