  • Though this is about Lemmy.world I think sh.itjust.works has a similarly sad story.

    We had a vote for the banner when sh.itjust.works started where a bunch of artist came forward with art for the banner and some AI guys came in with art as well. This was clearly stated by the AI guys, with no trickery. The community voted in the agora to reject the art of its users in favour of this stable diffusion slop.

    I think you can tell I dispise AI art. The reason for it here though is that the community voted for it over real artists time, dedication, and love for the community.

    If someone really wanted to change it though one could create a discussion post in the agora, our community voting community, to have it changed. They’d likely need to provide new art which, as an artist, I’m unwilling to do. The community has shown it cares little for the time, effort, and skill involved so somebody with an hour and stable diffusion would win out over the multi-day process of making something meaningful

    Well buddy it’s a bit more than that. Personally, I’m not holding it against the guy maybe he’s changed so I’m not gonna freak every time I see him but pretending that’s it is wild.

    The man in anger called some guy the n-word. No joke to it. Straight up, I’m angry so I’ll call this guy a racial slur. This, along with the constant (and it was constant) skirting with racism and Hitler which were framed as jokes made it clear that it wasn’t just a bunch of jokes. Wearing a military uniform that was as close to the Nazis as possible, constant talk of a final solution, jokes about ‘them’, German speaches, zieg heils, dog whistles, and alot more were commonplace in his videos at the time.

    You don’t just randomly shout the n word in anger for the first time on live stream.

    The guy was obviously going down the pipeline and people still don’t like him because of that. Not one joke but a constant stream of them along with a very telling instance


  • Yoo that’s wild man doing gods (Richard Stallman) work here man.

    Great initiative nonetheless. Compared to 8 this much more secure and for programming it’s a great choice too. Bringing more life out of some old PCs, saving a school money, and forcing some kids to get creative in order to play Roblox.

    As for is it ready fr this application, programming, it has been for a while. For general, especially web based, applications it absolutely is. Of course, there are quite few things were it’s just not but for the most part Linux is a great choice.
