Then I start to see the pattern - that familiar tempo. Admittedly there&#39;s no &#34;Not x. Not y. Just z&#39;. But there&#39;s that faint whiff, like the neighbor is burning toast. The paragraphs are just a bit too regular. Something about the headings. Yeah my dude, you used ChatGPT to write this, didn&#39;t you. I&#39;m sure of it. Not sure enough of just how much to comment on the post, and I don&#39;t have the energy to get in an argument about it. <br/><br/>Ai both degrades trust - making us suspicious of everything we see and read - and sucks the life and personality out of absolutely everything it touches. I&#39;m so sick of starting to read and going, oh, nope this is machine-generated nothingness. I hate this. I hate all of it. 2026-03-27T00:33:08Z https://njump.me/nevent1qqszp5vrptmmqnyv42f6q5ykrx2nve0eqhfsd4vx5fy6dzhltrphqxszypmjshyxc6563kp49uc560phghgvylygxtr63lfvz2r72z56qdgpxtvzmf2 Now is the time for FOSS folk to remember what Free, Libre, and Open Source software is actually about, and to choose to resist. <br/><br/>If the existence of your project, and your not going to jail, depends on some form of compliance that you really cannot dodge, then make sure that compliance comes in a form that is bolted on and give me a spanner. <br/><br/>Specifically give users the power to remove age verification and to enable encryption, even if they have to fork your project to do so. 2026-03-22T09:33:18Z https://njump.me/nevent1qqsw7cutefzau7mka2a82lyuk9cmyfp9rru66xzczacrrl3vl4v5puczypmjshyxc6563kp49uc560phghgvylygxtr63lfvz2r72z56qdgpx43mz43 Fascinating how mainstream media describes unprovoked attacks and invasions as &#39;conflict&#39; as if both sides chose to be involved. 2026-03-01T07:09:57Z https://njump.me/nevent1qqsr7gnpna9xfk9k7wzv7kgue2d9jnxn9vr0fudagn3qkvr3sphlw6qzypmjshyxc6563kp49uc560phghgvylygxtr63lfvz2r72z56qdgpx643x7l In reply to <a href='/nevent1qqsvq7hxdqnr7e9fnpku2chmf88590d5v8dmuu3at48ls794khuyd3gdr2hev'>nevent1q…2hev</a><br/>_________________________<br/><br/>no, I&#39;m going to!
