Beads.

wish i had thought of this before clearing out my inbox 😞

hackneyed; stale

you seem like the kind of dork whose brain literally explodes when you read this sentence

clanker

edit: this may be used to refer to the chatbots themselves, rather than those who fondle chatbots

holy shit how have i never heard of this paper

thank you for sharing!

this is gonna live in my head forever without paying any rent and i am upset

is anyone else fucking sick and tired of discord? it's one thing if it's gaming-related^[i guess. not really, fuck discord.], but when i'm at a repo for some non-gaming project and they say "ask for help in our discord server", i feel like i'm in a fever dream and i'm going to wake up and discover that the simulation i was in was managed by chatgpt

ugh cybersecurity is already a fucking nightmare i should have braced myself

an unintended side effect of this is people who can't or don't want to verify their age going to less reputable sources. so even though it can be done in a "privacy-respecting fashion" (see, for example, soatok's post on this^[https://soatok.blog/2025/07/31/age-verification-doesnt-need-to-be-a-privacy-footgun/] ), it's still a bad idea.

additionally, in my opinion no one who wants to enact such a thing is doing it in good faith. it is a pretense towards an ulterior goal^[e.g. "steam porn games" → "this person's existence is inherently sexual" → "ban lgbtq content"]

what is stopping a desktop or mobile client from running new/different code? the only solution im aware of (we're in halting problem territory here, probably, though grapheneos has "prevent DCL from storage/memory" toggles so idk) is to inspect the code to make sure it does what they say and then cryptographically sign it
