Walking one of the dogs, and a young lass wanders up to me and asks if I “would like an egg”, holding in her hand what appeared to be a common chicken egg.

Is this what the kids are up to these days: wandering around offering people poultry ova? :thinkingwithblobs:

There has been a lot of research about autistics over the years, but this one really took the cake! 🍰

Find out what happened when researchers attempted to compare the moral compass of autistic and non-autistic people... (1/2)

Whether you have one or more accounts will indeed play into how cumbersome it could be. Most apps (IFAIK) can handle more than one. One browser can handle 2+ if they’re on different instances.

Please don't use #Fedified! 🙏

This is what it says about itself:

"(Fedified) is *the* way to make sure that you're following the account managed by the same person you used to follow on Twitter."

It wants to be a central authority. This is dangerous, and opposite to what the Fediverse stands for.

People become dependent on a central authority, then it gets bought out by billionaires.

You can already verify your account on here without using any centralised lists:

They're wizard kids living in a castle with a monster in the basement and a forest full of centaurs down the hill!

Intellectual property theft, boost please 

So, DeviantArt opted in, by default, all existing art on the website for use by third-party AI.

Without notifying their users. For all existing art.

You have to go through your art pieces one by one and tick a box that you do NOT consent to this.

I learnt about it on Birdsite, by accident.

And of course, any inactive user or dead user will have their art used by AI models from now on, even though they never agreed to this.

Disgusting.

@trinsec

Hmm, entirely possible/likely. I'll watch out for that in future.

@trinsec @thislewashi@peoplemaking.games Hm, maybe it cancels it if there's no text, just an image. Or maybe I mis-clicked something...

@thislewashi@peoplemaking.games Any image behind a CW is automatically flagged as "sensitive". At least on the instance I use. Not totally sure why, but it is. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Lewd / nudity 

@freemo You say that like it’s a bad thing.
