You might be today's lucky 10,000, but have you heard of the Domesticated Silver Fox?

And I wonder how many of those 95% have already used misapplied AI facial recognition to justify FISA court warrants for ~~stalking~~ investigating ~~random people~~ suspected terrorists?

They aren't asking devs to be admins or for admins to be devs. They specifically called out the developers because code exists to filter child sexual abuse material, disseminated by organizations such as the FBI and law enforcement, which can be implemented for image uploading.

NOBODY in this comment section is advocating for uploading fucking child sexual abuse material. That is a strawman you are setting up. Nobody is advocating for allowing the uploading of child sexual abuse material, or for the "material to be up on lemmy instances". NOBODY is suggesting that a single instance going down is "the world is ending". NOBODY is asking for "100's of mods to specifically address this one user's posting of CSAM".

You're setting up a strawman argument nobody is proposing. The criticism is that, at this moment, the developers of Lemmy have not implemented a method for automatically vetting uploaded images for CSAM without requiring "100's of mods", which is what resulted in the condition that "taking the community down is the only option here".

Perhaps the wording of the original post was not precise and accurate enough for your full and complete understanding of the intent and meaning behind it. In this post, I have attempted to elucidate that intent and meaning to a degree which I hope is understandable to you.

I feel like you didn't actually read their comment before posting, [email protected]

It has nothing to do with Lemmyshitpost being their "favorite community" and they never mentioned "investing" or "value". That's all from you. Stop strawmanning their position. They were criticizing the ease with which entire communities can be taken down by single individuals. Additionally, it seems you are contradicting your own post from 20 minutes prior to your current comment. Perhaps you responded to the wrong comment?

How about the following examples:

  • Autonomous weaponized drones with automatic targeting (Terminator)
  • Mass surveillance and voice recording (1984)
  • Nuclear weapons (HG Wells, The World Set Free)
  • Corporate controlled hypercommercialized microtransaction-filled metaverse (Snow Crash)
  • Netflix to create real-life Squid Game (Squid Game (speedrun!))
  • "MoviePass to track people's eyes through their phone's cameras to make sure they don't look away from ads" (Black Mirror)
  • Soulless AI facsimile of dead relatives (Black Mirror)

Navy submariner. Can confirm sailors definitely do that on sausage days, or at breakfast with bananas. Usually on a dare, though, or as a joke. Otherwise the food is usually slightly below Air Force grade minus the butler, unless you count the seaman that's cranking as a food service assistant asking every table if they need anything.

"Democrats" is an amazingly broad term that mostly encompasses "almost anything that isn't Republicans". It isn't so much a unified monolith as an alliance of often polar opposite interests banding together only because the GOP is the only real alternative. Were the GOP to disappear tomorrow, I guarantee the Democratic party would almost instantly split into dozens of smaller parties, or possibly into two again. Compared to most of Europe, an American "Democrat" is a centrist or even a right wing neoliberal. People like Bernie Sanders, who is viewed as a far-left outright communist in America, would barely count as center left in most of Western Europe.

This honestly. Lots and lots of magazines in a basket on the wall.
