It doesn't render it in a frame to be played? That is weird, and definitely not in-spec with Markdown standard.

Tell that to OpenAI. They're not the only ones who have come out against IP law in the wake of the kerfuffle about how it relates to AI.

This is one of those cases where two groups seem like they are united on a subject but aren't really. OpenAI claims they want to abolish copyright for the good of themselves and AI, but that isn't really true. They just want immunity from it, complete death of copyright doesn't benefit them or any of the companies, since they'd lose their moral high horse against civilians using their material without paying them, as well as their ability to legally retaliate.

Really their claimed stance against copyright doesn't undermine any of the anarchist and pirate arguments against IP law as it is today and as a concept, it doesn't even align with it. It's no different than right wingers saying there's a war on science or that they want to protect women and children from groomers. It's just obfuscating or lying about their intentions. OpenAI is just claiming their against copyright because it's easier to swallow than saying they wish to be immune from copyright, maybe even be able to usurp individual people's copyrights outright.

Like this:

So basically all things that, pretty much exclusively do not apply to the open source, self-hosted, and decentralized AI promoted and used by this community of anarchists and tech enthusiasts? And you wonder why people here think you are trolls? Like, everything you described here is a problem with capitalism and the capitalistic system, you realize that your arguments are just proving what @db0@lemmy.dbzer0.com is saying?

The AI haters here are just flat out hypocrites, I mean why are you on this instance? Be honest, it was probably for !piracy@lemmy.dbzer0.com, the largest community here (and one of the largest on Lemmy), maybe you didn't and in that case maybe you just don't understand the main mission of dbzer0 and the fact that copyright isn't something we care about, but for those who do it is hypocritical if not downright asinine to support and participate in piracy but also say that "It's important to respect intellectual property" when people discuss AI projects and training of AIs. I mean if you pirate movies or games you certainly aren't respecting copyrights yourself. Maybe you think it's different but those companies feel just as offended, and it's evident from their sleazy efforts to fight against piracy.

There are so many arguments that can be made against AI and might even apply in certain situations (Corporate monster AIs like OpenAI) but this one is just fucking stupid, and you all make yourselves sound like trolls when you come here whining about the importance of copyright and intellectual property.

AirVPN seems really good, I liked Mullvad but unfortunately they dropped port forwarding which really ruined them as a VPN service for Torrenting.

Thank you, I'm happy to hear that. I used to think that people would think I was appropriating transness but I think that was just my autistic brain overthinking things and getting scared of pissing people off.

I do, probably won't lead with it but I will definitely use it and also proudly display the flag to both support my trans brothers and sisters and make them feel safer.

Because they still think they aren't and want to pretend they aren't, they believe the law is on their side and they don't have it in them to lie to a court and/or falsify evidence that they did do it "clean room" and betray the law which they believe is on their side. Even though it actually isn't and probably never unless people get fed up enough to do what's necessary.

As if being a woman is such a horrible and disgusting thing, fuck off misogynistic pig. It's disgraceful you haven't been instance banned on your home server.

That's a great point. I honestly like the trans flag very much and I'm probably going to use it and wear it since it's cute and will make other people feel comfortable but will probably use the label strategically to avoid confusion with others thinking I'm a different kind of trans than I actually am. It seems my fear of being seen as appropriating is probably overthought as well.

That makes sense probably should lead with saying I'm AFAB and Nonbinary, then say I'm trans so no one gets the wrong idea. People thinking I'm appropriating probably isn't a real issue, it's probably just something my autistic brain made up because I overthink things way too much and also am afraid of pissing people off.
