My gender is my concern, but you may use any pronoun to refer to me
I dunno what cameras you are using but a standard full frame sensor and an F/4 lens sees way better in low light than the human eye. If I take a raw image off my camera, there is so much more dynamic range than I can see or a monitor can even represent, you can double the brightness at least four times (ie 16x brighter) and parts of the image that looked pure black to the eye become perfectly usable images. There is so so so much more dynamic range than the human eye.
Hard to credit without a source, modern cameras have way more dynamic range than the human eye.
Jesus, the “plandemic” explanation for why the Internet is dying. The Internet IS clearly dying, but this is stupid. Even if we got rid of all the bots and AI, the Internet would still be dying, because open protocols are not as exploitable as walled gardens. The value of capital in the world overwhelms the value of human labour and human interest, and all our social structures conform to the needs of capital over time.
I love unix shops.
Just use another word for something that is in some ways similar to piracy, but isn’t piracy.
There is no real dichotomy between the logo we have and the proposed typographical symbol. They have different uses, neither can really replace the other. Keep the established colourful Fediverse logo in visual layouts and when desired use the typographical symbol in text. It is natural that they won’t be exactly the same symbol because they are designed for different needs; one is meant to look pretty and one is meant to read well as text.
That’s nonsense.
If you know what those reasons are, then whether or not they have been articulated should not influence how you feel about those reasons. To think I could control your mind by not saying things. Just think of all the things I am not saying right now. You’ll go mad.
If you DON’T know what those reasons are, then you are simply not able to respect them less than you do now.
Oh my god, you’re right. How could I have failed to see the risk. They must be stopped at all costs.
I don’t think it works well typographically but I’d like to see a mockup

It’s not being used by another group to represent themselves. It’s a technical symbol like degrees or pi. This idea is similar to how the semicolon is being re-used as a symbol for a group of people. Nothing is being stolen from anyone.
Can you answer, “Why do we need a symbol that represents the Fediverse?” Because modulo that, your question becomes, “Why does the symbol that represents the Fediverse have to have a Unicode codepoint?”
We don’t need it to be a Unicode character, but there are advantages if it is that are so obvious they don’t even bear discussion.
It’s literally a character, like aitch.

I’m pretty sure we’re cool to use it. The advantage of using a glyph that already exists in Unicode is huge.
If you got a problem with capybaras then you got a problem with me, and I suggest you let that shower marinate for a while, bud.
It’s aggressively bad.
r/titlegore the fault of the original article
By context “we” refers to google.
Same as everyone, to produce reports.

Replying because I need to think about how I’m going to vote for this comment and plan to come back later.
