It would almost give me heart attack, lf I were to see Zuckerberg staring me from my kitchen window like that. And not just because my kitchen doesn't have a window!
So... I guess "Sup." beta is delayed...
I was really looking forward to a decentralized, self hostable Signal...
Looking for something more integrated with things like Mastodon or Lemmy or Pixelfed, it's too hard of a sell for people to download another messager otherwise.
Also, Matrix is really complicated... I still don't quite have it working right.
Matrix is not complicated, it's Element's UX. It's going in good direction, remember than on WhatsApp people are factory resetting their phones to move chats between Android and iPhone. You can do clickable Matrix link in bio and there are instances that offer Fediverse+Matrix combo accounts.
Then it looks quite redundant. Do you have any link on how to access matrix with a fedi user?
You don't access any Fediverse project with the same user and I never claimed there is a Fediverse service that Matrix has a OAuth option for, just that it's just OAuth and can be implemented easily to basically everything, there are no shared accounts between Fediverse services and there are barly any Fediverse projects with OAuth implementations between each other ether, Pixelfed recently added Mastodon OAuth but even that's a relatively new feature.
And then people will send you DMs on Fediverse even if you don't use it for chat.
Well, the obvious dissatvantages are that Activipub isn't made for chat applications and doesn't support proper encryption yet (heavily WIP but veey far from implemented)
Nope, because you cannot connect with accounts from a different network.
XMPP is pretty much federated without advertising it as being federated. This is just how it works.
I'm still not entirely sure what problem Sup is trying to solve. Matrix already exists. Matrix supports E2EE through the signal protocol, as well as native federation, and it bridges to almost any existing chat service. Matrix is inherently less secure, overall, than Signal, but I don't see how Sup would fix this either -- for that I'll have to wait and see. As for using one's fedi account to sign-in, that's mostly just up to supporting OAuth, and not some feature that would be unique to the app.
It's this picture real? What the hell is the context for this guy to take a picture like that?
He's got to trolling everyone, acting like he's extremely creepy as a joke.I think it's made by AI. Someone thought it's funny when he spies into our privacy.
My goodness why didn't I think of that
This is why AI shops are dangerous. That picture looks real. It's funny as hell though.
People will be training AI on their ex's face to show how unhinged they are. Anyone could make pictures for divorce or custody battles that depict the other party like this.
And if they dismiss it as AI that's a whole other problem. Actual pictures will mean nothing.
Yup. It's going to be rough.
Makes me want to skip ahead a hundred years.Im pretty sure computers can scan the pictures and determine if its AI
although that has its own problems...
Why do you think actors and writers are currently striking?
As of my last knowledge update in September 2021, I don't have information about any ongoing strikes among actors and writers. However, strikes in these industries often occur due to disputes over issues such as fair compensation, working conditions, and creative rights. To get accurate and up-to-date information about the current strikes, I recommend checking news sources or official statements from the relevant organizations.
Haha. AI, doesn't know it neither.
The writers guild of America is currently on strike right now over low wages and being replaced with ai.
A lot of actors are striking in solidarity.
Idk all the details but that's the gist of what I've read about it.

I am afraid that this is a real picture that he took. If so... Why????
