Well the biggest evidence that you're not instance banned, is that I can see you comments and you can see mine

These posts are more suitable for !flippanarchy@lemmy.dbzer0.com

Our application process just asks one to name their favorite person or tool. Honestly people really panic about this and think it's like a super-serious cred judgement :D We just use it to assign you a cool little flair icon.

They are. The person you're replying to has wording that is implying these are sock puppets from draconic who uses them as a false flag attack

[–] db0@lemmy.dbzer0.com 3 points 23 hours ago (4 children)

Because they're clearly being facetious

You've never been instance banned from /0. Also Mods are not admins and we let them moderate as they want so long as they follow instance rules

Does this take into account the account age when they got banned? You can clearly see that older instances are on the higher level. Mate really, this shit ain't easy, and jumping to publish with flawed methodology like this just comes off as a hit piece

We have dedicated anti ai trolls who go and get banned from dozen of genai comms, make alts then go and get banned again. We have serial harassers who make dozen of accounts and go and spew bigotry. Your methodology is so flawed, it's laughable. Did you even check the age of the accounts being banned?The amount of comments? The amount of downvotes? Cross-reference with other instance bans? Check if their own instance banned them? Did you have any amount of rigor before throwing out your half-assed conclusions?

There's lies, damn lies, and statistics...

Someone contact the mods of that subreddit and tell them to point to https://join-lemmy.org/ instead of lemmy.world

Things invert when the instance "defending itself" has 1/3rd of the threadiverse active users.

~~It seems the blahaj links don't work anymore~~

Wait no nevermind. Tesseract frontend is fucking up the URLs

Apparently the mod likes using euphemisms for their extracting wealth from other productive members of society and really dislikes being reminded.

The video I linked for reference

I guess I was "sympathizing with invaders" because I said "Such an absolute waste of life, just for the vanity of one man."

Just patently ridiculous moderation...

 

I was watching a video yesterday which had a sponsor for deleteme which claims to go through data brokers to delete your info. I thought that might be a good idea, especially for those with radical politics. However it's fairly expensive (~200$) and also I mistrust sponsored links by default.

Have you used them? Have you used something else? What do you recommend people do to deal with the hundreds of data brokers which harvest your info? The point is not to disappear entirely, but pershaps to make it less easy for an employer, payment processor or whatever to blackllist you based on GenAI assessments etc.

 

Note I found one comment which works for me in there: https://huggingface.co/Lightricks/LTX-2.3/discussions/13#69b26bb65d8741ba168540b4

Use 0.987, 0.85, 0.725, 0.422, 0.0 in your upscaler sigmas. This seems to work for me, but ofc it adds one more step than before, so the speed is reduced. This works well if you're planning to re-use the last frame of the video to extend it or smt.

Another solution that works is to simply cut off the lat 18 frames from the video and make it 18 frames longer. Υou can just extract the last frame at the point of cutoff. What I do to avoid cutting off speech (if there is one), I might add "there's a moment of silence" in the end of my prompt. Then the cutoff frames don't interrupt anything

Hello again peeps, I come back to you with more exciting news. After last months vote passed to accept quokk.au as a member of the FAF, the vote on their end only just marginally failed for a 1-vote tiebreaker. The primary reservation people expressed back then was not wanting to follow the FAF defederations/bans as many people chose quokk.au explicitly due to their defederation list, particularly of Marxist-Leninist-friendly instances like hexbear.

Given however that there was willingness from admins on both sides to collaborate and provide mutual aid to each other due to our shared values, we went back to the drawing board to find a compromise. The main issue was that we wanted a way where we didn't want to sacrifice the tight integration of the FAF proper, but there is also an option "softer" version of the flotilla integration, which is less technical and more political.

So we came down to having two different tiers of membership in the flotilla

Consorts: These are the fully integrated members of the FAF. For all accounts and purposes, they count as a single instance, as they follow the same rules, bans and federations and their members get voting rights on all proposals. I.e. the original vision I proposed.

Companions: These are the more politically-only aligned instances.

  • They don't have to follow the FAF defederations and bans so they have no say in those either. However companion instances can optionally chose to follow defederations and/or bans, which allows them to vote on them as well.
  • They can take part in the voting for rules which don't refer to deferations or bans, and they have to follow those rules (e.g. golden rules, radical admin recalls etc). They are also allowed to propose new rule changes as well for the whole FAF.
  • They get access to FAF private matrix channels and benefit from our resident technical expertise and moderation experiences.

Naturally a Companion instance can at any time become a Consort by simply on-boarding existing FAF defeds & bans and therefore immediately get future voting rights for those as well.

After we reached internal consensus on these two tiers, we then re-approached @Quokka@quokk.au to see if that would cover their reservations and we're today happy to announce that they've officially joined the FAF.

On a personal note: It's been always my passion to grow a system that is not only technically robust, but also politically as well, and the only way we can achieve this is by reinforcing the mutual aid ties between aligned actors, while providing enough independence for self-expression. This is yet another step in that direction and I hope it can lead to more versatile fediverse structures like feeler networks and whatnot.
