Yet another reminder that centralized proprietary platforms run by for-profit megacorps are not friends of FOSS.

They can and will censor anything that they arbitrarily consider to be a brand risk.

Working to move all my decades of open source work and communities off GitHub in the coming months to self hosted Gitea.

Because no one should care. Just fully ignore them, do not engage with trolls or people whose politics you don't care about. Maybe we should instead ban those who call out this stuff or describe it in malicious ways...

GitHub will have removed this because they don't want to be seen hosting racist shit on their platform. They don't want that because as it turns out the vast majority of the population isn't on board with racism, so not doing so would empower their competitors, hurt their brand and affect their bottom line. It's the same with Disney (the "oh a black little mermaid!?" stuff) and all the other the other ultimately bana…

Ye I don't see anyone quitting github over some random rimworld mod. I claim bullshit on that

People still buy Nestle and they do far worse shit.

People have no problem supporting corporations that do business with racist regimes.

Claiming somehow people (other than some virtue signalling) would start migrating in droves to gitlab because there is a mod for rimworld is insane.

Strange if true. Those triple parentheses are weight modifiers, increasing the importance of the tokens inside. This reddit link posted elsewhere gives a more damning view, aside from the triple parentheses: https://www.reddit.com/r/StableDiffusion/comments/103upr6/co...

from the thread, thats sounds confusing https://www.reddit.com/r/StableDiffusion/comments/103upr6/co...

...including removing any non-white characters from Rimworld

You should also mention there are two counterpart mods called "black only" and "yellow only"

> though it's pretty disgusting in other ways In what ways? All I can see is some furry porn stuff. Explicit and not my fetish, but what parts are disgusting?

I can imagine that porn with animals (even cartoons) might be disgusting to some people. There is a reason why bestiality is quite high in the list of social taboos.

In context of stable diffusion it’s something that would be extremely difficult to generate, and therefore a good example in a prompt-crafting class.

I’d say it’s an odd choice, except there are also plenty of others.

I know nothing at all about prompt engineering but I think those words were negative prompts intended to ensure those things don’t emerge.

That's called source hut ( https://sourcehut.org ), which I use with great delight.

sourcehut has some pretty major ui stumbles IMO, particularly the unlinked nature of a project, eg: Get from https://git.sr.ht/~tsileo/microblog.pub to the ticket list. The ticket writing interface is pretty lackluster, mostly because its stuffed over the side and previewing shrinks the interface each time. Pretty sure its an intentional, or at least a side effect, of the component nature of srht's codebase (afaik),…

> previewing shrinks the interface each time.

I don't think it's intended and I'm failing to reproduce the issue you mentioned in Firefox 108. Maybe report a bug to the mailing list?

> The ticket writing interface is pretty lackluster...

I think this simplicity is intentional, and as an old folk, I actually dig that look. Having almost no JS around (I failed to find any so far) is also nice from my point of view.

Being composed a lot of parts feels chunky sometimes, but being able to compose projects out of repos, and having free-hanging repos without projects is also a great plus from my point of view. It fits how I work perfectly.

> It's also pretty slow, not sure if it has global hosting.

It's currently hosted in a single server in the US, but it will be moved to Europe (Netherlands I assume) to a more powerful infrastructure, so the speed will recover.

At the end of the day, while it's not perfect, it's perfect for me, my mindset and philosophy today. I'm a happy paying customer. Also Drew listens feedback and answers frankly, which I like a lot.

i will never forget when in my interview process there, they wanted me to go through a 3 hours session with their diversity manager.. I just gave up from the process.

It seems that you know more than me.

Thank you for clarifying.

There’s a Reddit thread that goes into some detail: https://www.reddit.com/r/StableDiffusion/comments/103upr6/au...

So it seems the actual reason for the suspension is that Automatic had a mod for the colony-sim game RimWorld that disables certain skin colors from appearing in the game. If you're not familiar, these sorts of mods are near universally made for racist dogwhistling; they're the "barely passable but not really" version of mods that would straight up whitewash non-white characters. The entire debacle started a couple o…

Ah yes, the extreme racist groups of… RimWorld players.

Ridiculous.
