The rule is already human expression in fixed form, of creative height. So you have to demonstrate that you the human made notable contributions to the final output.

Using stuff like controlnet to manually influence how images are shaped by the ML engine might count, there’s some great examples here (involving custom Qr codes)

It’s human expression that is protected by copyright. Creative height is the bar.

If you’ve done nothing but press a button there’s often no copyright. Photography involves things like selection of motive, framing, etc. If you just photograph a motive which itself doesn’t have copyright, then what you added through your choices is what you may have copyright of. Using another’s scan of a public domain book might be considered fair use, for example (not much extra expression added by just scanning)

Independent creation is indeed a thing in copyright law. Multiple people photographing the same sunset won’t infringe each other’s copyright, at least not if you don’t intentionally try to copy another’s expression, like actively replicating their framing and edits and more.

Ublock origin FTW

Obsession with control, including control over future generations

Casually getting yourself permabanned

And if you don’t know who owns it, leaving a note to ask is simple.

I’ve been the one to leave stuff out that I didn’t have space for anymore, with a note on that it’s free to take

Deaddrop coordinates

Not everything is hooked up to that

No, this will only lead people without access to Google Play to be forced to get it from somebody who has modified the app to fake the check.

Bluesky does have federation, it’s just limited for now. You can host your own accounts on your own hardware.

It pretends to be privacy focused, but because everything but 1-to-1 secret chats (where you have compared session identifiers) are accessible to the company and they keep logs of all group chats which they can access (even if they claim they can’t, that’s bullshit)

So by default your instance respect mod removals.

You can change that as a server admin, so comments would remain visible to other users on your instance.

I think your instance is authoritative for content of comments, but the community hosting instance is authoritative for which comments are approved (other instances respect such removals by default)

Some dumb shit I see is setting SPF so Google is a trusted origin for email “to solve issues with sending to Gmail addresses” when what you’re supposed to do is add your mail servers as trusted origin.

Directionality, how does it work?

Somebody should consider building a fork that works of bluesky’s content addressing scheme, that way communities can effectively be re-homed in full even if the server dies

Lemmy stores your posts and replies on both your host server and on the server of the community.

One interesting behavior to note here that is different from reddit is that while comments on reddit belong to the profile of the person commenting and is then imported to view in the subreddit (this is why you can edit comments after being banned, and why there visible in your profile even if removed from a subreddit), on lemmy the target community is instead authoritative and your host server will by default respect a deletion by community mods on different servers by also removing that comment from your profile.

His problem is nukes can only be used as a last resort when your country already has started to fall, otherwise you will trigger your own country to fall quite soon after (retaliation strikes, sanctions, fallout, riots, etc)

So nobody will take it as a serious threat in response to anything less than a major attack on the capital or equivalent.

It depends on the type of location, small remote locations might not even get their own local network

They’re not for long term storage, they’re for transient storage like photography, in particular stuff like surveillance cameras

So if the solution to help Palestine is pressuring their oppressor to stop, then the solution to help Ukraine is…?
