Your calculation is assuming that the input images are statistically independent, which is certainly not the case (otherwise the model would be useless for generating new images)

By this logic, you can copy a copyrighted imege as long as you decrease the resolution, because the new image does not contain all the information in the original one.

Use it and love it, sure. But benefit from it?

I’m not talking about blocking, but about being unable to see all replies to a post unless you open it on its home instance, which happens all the time on Mastodon.

What if it’s the other way around – you’re not good enough for actual human women?

And you know how, when you subscribe to a mailing list, you will only receive new mail sent to the list if your server happens to “federate” with the sender’s server?

Oh wait, that’s not how e-mail works.

Did you not look at the car before buying it?

Wait what? There are countries where you can drive without headlights?

Who would’ve guessed that a tree is the best way to visualize something that can be arbitrarily nested?

It used to not require opt-in, but Mastodon users were strongly opposed to the idea of Mastodon actually being interoperable with other services and harassed the developer.

I’m sorry, the platform that allows you to use a custom domain as your identity has “no account portability”, as opposed to the one where you have to manually copy over almost everything?

Of course. The modern way is

<div class="inline text-blue-700 underline" onclick="window.location.href='https://[email protected]/_40795251_Penis_Free_Movies_'">Click here</div>

If only Lemmy had a feature to block posts with specific words… maybe another social network has it.

I don’t think I’ve ever received an e-mail from an Apple Mail address.

Let me see how you get instance admins to agree on what to defederate.

Bluesky allows me to use my domain as my identity and make my own moderation decisions without having to run my own instance.

That choice is tied to your identity and can’t be easily changed later, which is what I’m complaining about.

You can choose a different moderation service. That’s the point.

But worse than anyone being able to follow that person because they’re using a platform where moderation is separate from identity, as in AtProto.

The Fediverse is, by definition, anything that supports ActivityPub. If BlueSky supported ActivityPub – which is what the bridge was meant to accomplish – then it would be a part of the Fediverse.
