@blaaablaaaa @feliks One could set the tonal lens to something like "Angry and rude" and then every post you see would be rephrased to be angry even if they weren't originally
@feliks Whoops, sorry I forgot to link the original, edited the post
@feliks Yeah sure, here's an example of a donald trump quote through the lens "kind and caring"

LLM "alignment" is so annoying. They basically shut down and shut up whenever they encounter negative text. I'm trying to make a filter that rephrases hate comments as complements but it just refuses to engage if the negativity is high enough 🤷
Being a 31337 h4x3r can be handy for bypassing web base "not allowed to run on linux" checks.

New: Meta has deleted trans and nonbinary Messenger themes, as well as the blog posts announcing them. Happens the same week that it has changed its rules to allow users to say LGBTQ+ people are "mentally ill"

"Can you explain this gap in your resume?"
"Balatro"
@light Oh yeah that's already being worked on. Unsure if it's available for humans yet.
neat "... under different conditions, distinct mechanisms (cell:cell communication and tubulogenesis vs. cytoskeletal bending) are triggered toward the same specific large-scale outcome. It arises because evolution does not just make specific solutions to specific problems, it makes problem-solving systems that do not over-train on prior history, knowing that both environment and genetics will change over time"

Main question is whether it's safe to do so without intense trauma given the amount of cells and whether it's possible to target them without affecting the rest of the body. Last thing will be what to do about excess skin post reduction. 🤷 Seems like it's worth persuing anyway
So, these mrna vaccines can be used to get the body's mune system to attack not omly invaders but alao arbitrary cells. This is used in animals to sterilize them without surgery by making their immune system attack their reproductive cells. I think this poses the opportunity for non invasive breast reduction by making the body attack just the cells in a persons breasts. Potential win for trans masc folks
@yhancik 🤷 folks are terminally online and angry about random stuff. It happens.
Good news for #BlueSky folks, I'm now reachable on there as just `@mauve.moe` thanks to the custom domain support in brid.gy :)
I'm getting popular enough to get unsolicited transphobic emails. 🥳
python is actually pretty cool
Faffing about with my mind-goblin assistant has been useful now that we're working on Hypha's bot. We've got it connected to our handbook and are refactoring to make it possible to use with other "front ends" like email down the line

I'm sure there's an untapped market for "Dumb" tech. Bonus points for repairable, dumb tech.
No AI assistants, no Internet connection, no DRM or login needed.
Just a toaster that makes toast, a TV that plays only what you put in it, with repair kits, spare parts available, easy to reach guts and accessible schematics, diagrams and instructions.
I know I'd buy no other brands if just one offered that to me.

threads is about to get so much worse. PLEASE admins defederate them and users move to an instance that defederated them
if you dont support defederating threads let me know so i can know your instance is a dangerous one for queers and poc
@BigTittyBimbo Yeah I think they'll find they're SOL and that leaving humanity behind while living in the luxury they're acccustomed to isn't gonna happen. TBH in their place I'd just scale down my bunker needs and spend the next decade actually learning the trades I'd need to maintain stuff myself and abandon luxury for my last few decades of life
