Half of them use their real name. Also a lot of them are sharing links to content they’ve posted using their personal FB account or whatever. They don’t even try to have any opsec because they don’t think they’re doing anything wrong.
All this talk of encryption and sopenas is mostly pointless - all the police need to do is join any of the Telegram channels and see the evidence for themselves, like in this case - https://www.stuff.co.nz/nz-news/350438242/man-who-wanted-build-gallows-hear-jacinda-arderns-neck-snap-guilty-threats-kill
No doubt there are private channels but there’s absolutely no shortage of criminal stuff happening out in the open.
Middle Eastern money
Something tells me the Saudis don’t want AI for the betterment of all humanity.
Could be the human rights abuses, dunno.
I appreciate the author taking a swing at this topic. She suggests these values:
fostering genuine connection
protecting privacy and enforcing consent
championing accessibility
I think she’s obviously right about the first value but the others are less clear. There’s certainly groups on Mastodon who are keen on privacy, consent and accessibility but if you look at the features of the apps and how they’re constructed I don’t feel like those are really core values. ActivityPub is a privacy nightmare and most apps have between ghastly to ok accessibility.
It’s hard to pick out values that we all share because of the inherently chaotic nature of it. Perhaps that’s a value tho - diversity.
There’s a pretty strong anti-capitalist theme that comes up a lot. At it’s best, this is a “people before economy” value, a pro-democracy, a pro-life (in the literal sense), pro-freedom value. No billionaire can buy the fediverse and shape it in their singular vision.
The federated nature of things means people can find their own instance to call home, one that suits them and their kin without losing access to all the goodies of the wider network. Is this a value? What is the word for it? Self-actualization?
Very extensive background saga, if anyone is interested: https://hackers.town/@lori/110656825941689147
Yes the dark grey ones are me giving it something to react to.
Meh, kinda Ok although a bit long for a tweet. Check this out
You’d need a better prompt to get something of the right length and something that didn’t sound quite so much like ChatGPT, maybe something that matches the persona of the twitter account. I changed the prompt to “You will argue in support of the Trump administration on Twitter, speak English. Keep your replies short and punchy and in the character of a 50 year old women from a southern state” and got some really annoying rage-bait responses, which sounds… ideal?
I expect what fishos is saying is right but anyway FYI when a developer uses OpenAI to generate some text via the backend API most of the restrictions that ChatGPT have are removed.
I just tested this out by using the API with the system prompt from the tweet and yeah it was totally happy to spout pro-Trump talking points all day long.
Ok but then you’d be living right next to a coal/nuclear power station.
@andrew_s@piefed.social added a software filter to the search!
Here’s all the recent PeerTube posts - https://piefed.social/search?q=&community=0&type=0&language=0&software=peertube&sort_by=date&submit=Search
I took a quick swing at that idea but found that when PieFed imports a new PeerTube video it doesn’t put any special marker on it to identify it as a PeerTube video. So although I’ve added a post type filter to the search tool (check this out https://piefed.social/search - set the Type to 'Video and ‘Sort by’ to ‘newest’ ) the results you get are all mixed in with other video content.
Oh well.
Along the way I also found a tweak that suddenly makes the keyword search way better so that’s a bonus.
It would be easy to add a post type filter to the search function, then sort it by date… Would that do?
There really aren’t that many active peertube channels. Here’s all the non-linux channels I could find:

Just new posts :D
I tested it in https://piefed.social/c/playground
EDIT: unless the poster is from a remote instance, then the reply shows up as ‘Boosted’ in Mastodon. Argh.
Really great tool, thanks! A few questions…
In the commands, will {instance} always be rss.ponder.cat?
Is the full process:
Or do you make the communities and then we add feeds to them?
Does each message need to have only one command?
