These are the well-established rules to maintain quality of discussion

1. These “rules” of “don’t be boring” are most definetly not “well established”.
2. By being such a dick, you’re currently violating actually established instance rules.

One reason to dislike AI Art. It’s basically drowning the thing being communicated (the prompt) in fluffy noise.

tells hard stories about real life.

Don’t forget the leftist country music tradition with songs about class warfare.

I’m not sure if I’m using all of those 100% correctly (e.g. “Public facing”). But either use a search engine, or just ask.

What terms do you have in mind that you want to learn about?

Do you have a public-facing internet-presence? If so, then I’ve heard good things about copyparty.

I’m using Nextcloud for this, but that seems a bit overkill for your usecase.

Edit: they explain how to use a cloudflare tunnel, so no public IP needed, actually.

Yeah, buy… It really is a horrible idea. Any media outcry is warranted. Not like right-wingers spouting nonsense of eating cats and dogs…

Isn’t this how liberal democracies are supposed to work? How exactly did “the media” get the better of “us”?

Let’s not act as if it’s wise to be hopeful that any successful company can have decent politics (maybe if it’s a worker coop). Spineless liberals is the best we can hope for.

It’s just like with Valve and Nintendo: Companies are not your friends!

There are bands that I legit can’t buy the MP3s from.

I’m sure that small to medium artists don’t get fleeced by Spotify and get a ton of money from a service that almost everyone in the west is using. /s

You too. Hope you learned something. Although I doubt it.

What do youthink “imperialism” means?

If you say so…

Disengage

I could accuse you of the same. Why keep replying?

Since you obviously didn’t get the ‘main enemy’ bit

Edit: So, apparently condemning both Russian and western imperialism makes you a “vatnik”, huh. /s Should I call you a Yankee, then?

You would’ve been the best cannon fodder in WW1.
