He said "this" experiment, not "the fediverse" which I interpreted to mean his instance (or perhaps Lemmy).

That said, I'm honestly curious what do you care about his "toxicty" if he's not an admin of your instance? You don't seriously believe you have a right to dictate what he does with his own hardware do you?

I'm glad we agree.

What did you interpret the premise to be? I read the post when it was up, and it read to me like OP was saying essentially that too many toxic users and not enough admins willing to stand up to them make the overall experience not fun.

EDIT: Which is accurate in my mind at least when it comes to Lemmy

I wanted a very 90s web-feeling GIF of a TOS science division badge

Then I'd consider this silly little guy a success.

I don't disagree, but OP didn't ask for trend predictions. Anyone who tries to convince you "things" are worse today than than they were in 1995 is either trying to gaslight you, or doesn't consider the experience of the LGBT community to be as equally valuable as everyone else.

Using a camera on public property in the EU is broadly very legal.

Using recycled parts is the best advice. As you said, it's almost certainly overkill and the price can't be beat.

Unless you’re part of a marginalized group I suppose.

This is a pretty dismissive take. "Sure, things have improved for the blacks and queers, but what about us... uh, regular folk?"

I have to assume that's what it was trained on...

Thanks for the explainer, that last point is really great actually and I'm surprised that Amazon/Google etc are pushing for Matter if the data isn't sent to the internet.

I love the notion that even Twitter users had too much empathy and the platform wasn't getting Nazified fast enough on it's own so they had to program a robot to go around and spread propaganda.
