It was added to the “exclude” list in an apparently unrelated commit three days ago with absolutely no explanation. Glancing at its front page I see nothing objectionable, just a lot of anime stuff. When challenged u/dessalines had nothing to say other than “no, that is full of CSAM” and just closed the discussion without further comment.
Unless some more info comes to light it does not look good. Probably as good a time as any to depart from lemmy.ml.
When I played it the answer was to run “SwGame-Win64-Shipping.exe” instead of whatever stupid launcher it tries to load by default.
It is often heard from non-native speakers and will probably be understood, but in the absence of other context it will be perceived as slightly odd. Perhaps it’s on the way to being widely recognized as fully “correct” but I don’t think it’s there yet.

She would have expected people to name figures such as Quintus Lollius Urbicus, who became governor of Roman Britain
Look, I know everyone in Britain is required to know the names and dates of all the monarchs going back to the 9th century, but expecting everyone to be able to come up with that name when put on the spot is going a little too far.
vastly expands the pool of potential victims
I’m not brave enough at the moment to say it isn’t some kind of crime, but creating such images (as opposed to spamming them everywhere, using them for blackmail, or whatever) doesn’t seem to be a crime that involves any victims.
Not sure if it’s from an alternate universe or from our own future, but somewhere there is a version of this article that’s like “Today, the market for Mastodon alternatives is a crowded one to say the least. There are numerous services for consumers to try, including the open-source based Misskey, smaller startups like Pleroma, plus the Elon Musk-based product formerly known as Twitter.”
For a moment there I was wondering why the Girl Guides would object to the secularism policy of the Santa Claus Parade.

13% may not sound like a lot, but it includes almost all of the 10% who weren’t complete idiots.
I’ve just noticed that this is in c/piracy. I suppose there’s lots of interest in the story here and everywhere else, but I’d just like to remind you all that ad-blocking is not piracy.
It is if you redefine AGI to mean the thing that’s already here, although to get away with that it helps if at the same time you overestimate what LLMs are capable of doing.
My CPM numbers are pretty out of date, perhaps their costs have gone up with inflation. On the other hand perhaps they’ve gone down with storage and bandwidth costs.
Yeah I’d pay up to $7 per 1000 videos, that does seem like a fair price. It’d cover about 3 years of my typical usage.
In that case use some other DNS server.
Is this perhaps part of the reason for some big price increases in recent months? They were preparing to “freeze” the price there for a while so that the government can claim victory?
Professor Geist is basically right about such things as usual, but I hope for the sake of us all that he does save some of his strength for honest reporting on whatever happens next in this story and doesn’t burn himself out picking fights on fucking twitter.
You do have to figure though, that it’s only the most active users who will opt to pay $14/month
I’d say it’s more likely to be the most wealthy users who will pay the $14, and it seems plausible that the most devoted facebook users might care less about avoiding the ads than people who are there only reluctantly. So maybe slightly closer to the middle of that 11% to 342% range.
Forget your ideas of utopia for the time being. First let’s reduce the copyright term to something reasonable like 14 years or less, and abolish legal protections for DRM such as the DMCA. It’s a big enough change to start with, and might lead to more people respecting the law. The absurdity of works being locked up by the heirs and successors of authors who’ve been dead for three generations is unjustifiable.
I wouldn’t need to be wholly convinced that there’s anything heinous going on over there, just that the person accusing them of it had good reason to think so. So pretty much anything more than no info at all would probably have done the trick. Anyway, thanks for putting up with me for a little while and good luck to everyone at lemmy.ml, but I’m outta here. I’ll probably go try kbin or something.
