Sorry for my tone too, I get dysphoric-defensive very easily (as have been illustrated).

Federated application for a map with markers and notes?

It seems for me that this would be too narrow a purpose.

Maybe a general-purpose public notification map. With some functionality allowing to separate markers by their authors and by tags. Or it can be spammed with bogus markers. By tags - well, for it to be general-purpose. By authors - because moderation can’t be left to instance admins.

And, of course, I’m personally for separation of moderation, instance ownership, identities and hosting, but my own toy attempt showed me that the logic of checking the chain of privilege delegation is kinda PITA. That is, separating identities from instances is not that hard. And communities. What’s hard is the community owner delegating rights to other identities, and in general authorized actions. It’s a task of determining which privileges does an identity currently possess, and how does it affect its own actions on the community, and in which order should those be processed … Everything is harder than it seems. Sad.

So federation is fine LOL.

People don’t need reasons to do things gross or disturbing or whatever for you in their own space.

And the fact that you are continually doubling down shows me that you likely need your hard drives and notebooks checked.

Thankfully that’s not your concern, and would get you in jail if you tried to do that yourself. Also I’m too lazy for my porn habits to be secret enough, LOL.

Please don’t respond again unless you are telling me what country you are from so I can report you to the appropriate authorities.

I don’t think you understand. You’re the fiend here. The kind of obnoxious shit that thinks it’s in their right to watch after others’ morality.

I wonder, what if I’d try to report you and someone would follow through (unlikely, of course, without anything specific to report), hypothetically, which instances of stalking and privacy violations they’d find?

You really seem the kind.

Unacceptable. We should make people hosting games responsible for everything said on them, so that only big companies with staff for moderation and lawsuits could host games.

/s

No. That’s not a good enough excuse to potentially be abusing children.

It’s good enough for the person whose opinion counts, your doesn’t. And there’s no such potential.

I can’t think of a single good reason to draw those kinds of things. Like at all.

Too bad.

Please, give me a single good reason.

To reinforce that your opinion doesn’t count is in itself a good reason. The best of them all really.

Because morally it’s not your fucking concern what others are doing in supposed privacy of their personal spaces.

It seems to be a very obvious thing your nose doesn’t belong there and you shouldn’t stick it there.

But no, I’m not gonna let you get away that easily.

I don’t need any getting away from you, you’re nothing.

Suppose I’m a teenager attracted to people my age. Or suppose I’m medically a pedophile, which is not a crime, and then I would need that.

In any case, for legal and moral purposes “why would you want” should be answered only with “not your concern, go eat shit and die”.

The author of those comments wrote a few times what in their opinion happens in the heads of others and how that should be prevented or something.

Can you please stop interpreting my words exactly the way you like? That’s not worth a gram of horse shit.

Yes, that’s about hopes

We were going in that direction with too much trust and enthusiasm.

Then humongous corps played along to these emotions, while building something that wasn’t considered normal in the rest of the economy for many decades.

OK, honestly I’m tired of this shit, I think I’m going to start making toys of my own making in some scripting language to illustrate how it should work, not thinking about real world use. I’ve made one, I won’t show it to anyone, but the fact that it worked at all is nice, I guess.

I couldn’t force myself try starting on the latest idea, because it involves too much of “probably need something like”. Maybe I should just assume those parts as unreliable good-trust connections, as it was done with most of the real web model.

That is economic decline. That someone’s line goes up in all relative units on a graph doesn’t mean it’s growth.

Same shit here.

Well, it’s a tendency. I just remembered the time when I was hearing about Oculus Rift often.

Y-yeah.

I’m sometimes having conspiracy theories that some of such people are not just scammers, and were purposefully planted. Lots of people had unpleasant (for corps and states) ideas about crowdfunding, self-organization, libertarianism, or maybe anarchism, whatever. Cryptocurrencies too are not all bad, they have their uses. Living in the USA you might not see those clearly. Crowdfunding is a good model (when you can sue the living hell out of scammers).

It is an existing strategy, highlight your own mule as a leader, let them siphon the sympathizers of an idea to them, then let them loudly fail. You discover those people and their potential mechanisms which could have stayed hidden, and you undermine trust. Repeat until the field is clean. And by weeding out supporters of unfavorable ideas this way in portions, you gradually reduce those possible to act from people opposed to you. So it’s a working strategy for building a totalitarian state (that’s what they did in Russia), for creating a monopoly (that’s what we had in the last 20 years in the web ; even FB, Google etc would initially play as supporters of some free and interoperable Internet, if you remember, they’d support XMPP and RSS here and there and put on nice faces ; then after siphoning the energy that could have went into building a working decentralized IM infrastructure or working decentralized social infrastructure, they’d stop being nice), for basically everything.

I thought at some point that Russia’s regime is some scourge Russia alone was subjected to, until I saw that it was actually one of the first to show signs of a global change. Probably because it had less inertia due to being weakened after USSR’s breakup.

Dunno if you’ve noticed - in today’s world politicians and businessmen want the server side to be precious magic.

Having anything dedicated is opposed to that.

Well, US laws are all bullshit anyway, so makes sense

Can you stop trying to find a silver lining in the sexual exploitation of teenage girls?

Can you please use words by their meaning?

Also I’ll have to be blunt, but - every human has their own sexuality, with their own level of “drive”, so to say, and their dreams.

And it’s absolutely normal to dream of other people. Including sexually. Including those who don’t like you. Not only men do that, too. There are no thought crimes.

So talking about that being easier or harder you are not making any argument at all.

However. As I said elsewhere, the actions that really harm people should be classified legally and addressed. Like sharing such stuff. But not as making child pornography because it’s not, and not like sexual exploitation because it’s not.

It’s just that your few posts I’ve seen in this thread seem to say that certain kinds of thought should be illegal, and that’s absolute bullshit. And laws shouldn’t be made based on such emotions.

This definitely will not add in any way to the way women and girls are made to feel entirely disgustingly dehumanized by every man or boy in their lives. Groups of men and boys reducing them and their bodies down to vivid sexual fantasies that they can quickly generate photo realistic images of.

Sexual attraction doesn’t necessarily involve dehumanization. Unlike most other kinds of interest in a human being, it doesn’t require interest in their personality, but these are logically not the same.

In general you are using emotional arguments for things that work not through emotion, but through literal interpretation. That’s like using metric calculations for a system that expects imperial. Utterly useless.

If the person in the image is underaged then it should be classified as child pornography.

No, it’s not. It’s literally a photorealistic drawing based on a photo (and a dataset to make the generative model). No children have been abused to produce it. Laws work literally.

If the woman who’s photo is being used hasnt consented to this then it should be classified as sexual exploitation.

No, because the woman is not being literally sexually exploited. Her photo being used without consent is, I think, subject of some laws. There are no new fundamental legal entities involved.

Women and girls have faced degrees of this kind of sexual exploitation by men and boys since the latter half of the 20th century. But this is a severe escalation in that behavior. It should be illegal to do this and it should be prosecuted when and where it is found to occur.

I think I agree. But it’s neither child pornography nor sexual exploitation and can’t be equated to them.

There are already existing laws for such actions, similar to using a photo of the victim and a pornographic photo, paper, scissors, pencils and glue. Or, if you think the situation is radically different, there should be new punishable crimes introduced.

Otherwise it’s like punishing everyone caught driving while drunk for non-premeditated murder. One is not the other.

You can make an installer like the one Freenet has. Maybe even a wrapper with a tray icon in Tcl/Tk or something like that.

I mean, 44net is a rather early thing, a subspace for packet radio part of it.
