With that much stone they should install drainage grates in every room so you can just spray the place down instead of mopping/dusting/sweeping

Wow that sucks

AI art is going to do the same thing to fantasy art that digital art did: completely destroy the immersive feeling for the benefit of rich assholes who want to pump out slop quicker and cheaper

Sounds like a .worlder problem

If you believe this conflict is about religion, you are a gullible idiot. The conflict is a colonial one; the same sort of genocidal displacement we saw in North America only on the age of smartphones.

If everyone on both sides became Atheists, the Israelis would still be butchering the Palestinians and the Palestinians would still be fighting for their freedom.

I main Lemmygrad and you've been defederated from us since the beginning, so I don't think I would notice nor care. Good riddance lib safe space.

I agree with the other commenters who say that the issue is primarily that the Lemmyverse is too small for the grifters to bother influencing, but I also think federation (and the non-profit nature) plays into this.

A site like Reddit generally does not ban members just for being Conservative and expressing relatively mainstream right-wing beliefs. They have to present at least a veneer of "free speech" except in the case of hate speech and violence. In addition, they don't want to drive away Conservative users, because that's where their money comes from.

To a small Lemmy instance, these motives don't come into play. More users actually costs the admins more money. And while they generally don't ban users willy-nilly, they feel they have a right to ban people just for being right-wing dicks.

Ultimately right-wing ideology cannot survive in a space like this except in explicitly right-leaning instances; which will be subject to the "Nazi Bar" effect until those instances are defederated from the rest of the Lemmyverse.

Elon Musk runs the whole of Twitter like the jealous, power-drunk moderator of a small 5,000-member Discord server.

You don't have to qualify your opinion that Threads should be defederated by bringing up the lolicon instance. They are two completely separate instances and the questions to defederate from either are completely separate.

Burggit, Exploding-Heads, and Threads each have their own reasons for defederation (lolicon, nazism, corporate influence) and it doesn't make any sense to bring up one when discussing the other.

When you rotate an image in your phone or on your computer (by right-clicking or going into the image options and selecting "Rotate Right" or w/e), the device is not editing the image to rotate it 90 degrees. It's just adding a little metadata tag that tells devices loading the image "display this, but rotate it 90 degrees".

Lemmy scrapes off metadata as a privacy concern, since this also holds personal and location data. There have been a few medium-profile events of internet stalkers getting location data off of women's selfies and going straight to their homes.

I'm not sure if there's a simpler solution, but opening the image in an image editor and saving it again should remove the metadata tag and save it as an actual, upright image. However, this is a problem that the devs should fix - platforms like Discord also shave off metadata, but know enough to leave the orientation data intact.
