So (((disfigured feet))) in the linked prompt means the feet are Jewish, and it's not about increasing the term weight? Thanks, I learned something new today.

It is in the "Negative prompt", so they really don't want disfigured feet.

What's worse is that the emphasis of the prompt is on feet (an overwhelming common fetish)

It makes (((PERFECT))) sense that a person with a foot fetish would want an accurate foot.

However, we live in a world with so many people that anything (and I truly mean anything) will be taken as offensive by at least one person.

> 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?

The second prompt includes "child, young".

Yuck.

Gitea and forks exist, Fossil is also a plausible alternative although it seems not everyone likes its workflow. Maybe discovery could be handled simillar to Mastodon through ActivityPub, I think it wouldn't even be too hard to integrate into existing Git code forges.

Forgejo [1] (a fork of Gitea) is working on integrating activitypub [2]. [1] https://forgejo.org/ [2] https://codeberg.org/forgejo/forgejo/issues/59

Awesome, this could change the status quo of code forges. Also tangentially related, but just the fact that Forgejo is self hosting gives me more confidence in it than Gitea (which is on GitHub LOL), hopefully both projects share any improvements between each other.

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

SourceHut as a solution to centralized censorship is...questionable. SourceHut bans anything blockchain/crypto related from their platform.

> SourceHut as a solution to centralized censorship is...ironic.

It's not a solution to a centralized censorship. You can self-host it if you want.

> SourceHut literally bans anything blockchain/crypto related from their platform.

It's their platform, they can decide what to do with it. However, I support SourceHut's view on this, because I also didn't see anything useful came out of blockchain/cryptocurrency scene.

Moreover, you can send your project in for vetting if you are so sure that it's something really beneficial. The ban is not a curtain / we'll ban you no matter what variety.

It's too bad if true. The Stable Diffusion GUI repo was really useful. Used it just recently when SD upgraded to v. 2 over Christmas.

A little off-topic, but seeing the confusion about (((parenthesis))) used in an unfamiliar context, it's worth mentioning another area of confusion that will eventually surface with SD prompts.

The text-to-image models have biases, of course, and so prompts (positive and negative) need to be used to combat those biases if you don't want the output to go in the biased direction. e.g. if the model tends to draw hats on people, you might need to add the negative prompt ((hat)) meaning "really, really, no hat". Makes sense.

Now, consider when the text-to-image model has a bias regarding drawing people of a particular race, the person using the model may need to write a prompt counter-biasing the result to get the result they want. For example: by saying things like prompt (hispanic) or negative-prompt ((blue eyes)).

Not saying that such prompts are guaranteed not-racist, just that an uninformed observer could naturally suspect racist intent with race-specific tags in the prompt. It's complex, and would need more context to confirm a suspicion.

Or if one of thousands contributors happened to be? We already had developer (of Drupal[1]) cancelled over their private BDSM kink (that isn't even illegal, which racism is), what stops some random moderator for deciding he's the saviour of the world and banning random repos just because a contributor might've been questionable? * [1] https://www.theregister.com/2017/03/29/drupal_dev_banished/

What country is racism illegal?

Here are some depending on whether they define the repo as hate speech: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hate_speech_laws_by_country

can't they just do that development on the blockchain itself?

I think in some european countries it is, but don't quote me on that.

I suspect BDSM is explicitly illegal in more countries than racism is (unless we define racism narrowly, perhaps).
