[00:00:25] they’re not paying it [00:01:25] gonna have to work a few extra jobs if they wanna pay that fine [00:04:54] If it’s exponential it’s working for entirety until they die [00:25:59] considering getting a linux laptop, what would yall recommend for a distro? [00:32:49] macOS [01:10:37] no, go die [01:17:12] y so many...https://www.mingw-w64.org/downloads/ [01:17:47] i just wanta neovim [02:58:38] [1/2] Tomorrow is the first time I try root beer [02:58:38] [2/2] https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/615786602454581249/1301379777369870446/rn_image_picker_lib_temp_4225ab83-2da3-40a2-95c6-35cd6384b478.jpg?ex=672443dd&is=6722f25d&hm=f4e2400e0f7ccd507cebb6352db4329e8e93d599507366128c5b4ea7f3e52f78& [03:26:05] fun fact, Wikidot hard blocked Russian and Belorusian IPs [03:26:45] they claim there were attempts of hacking them, but I haven't heard such news proper [03:27:08] Regarding Sexypedia [03:27:28] https://sexypedia.miraheze.org [03:28:14] color me surprised [03:29:58] at least they can scrap [03:31:02] Still closed at the moment, but at least the database dump was made available [03:39:51] Fandom people proved twice now that they in fact don't care about real fandoms and culture surrounding them [03:54:38] https://www.thewrap.com/fandom-gamespot-layoffs/ [03:57:12] > this industry fucking sucks, man [03:57:18] wow [04:13:50] Seriously why [04:24:55] happy spooky day all [04:30:00] Wtf is a Sexypedia [04:33:06] it started as a joke to document "tumblr sexyman", then grown into whatever it is now [04:37:44] I remember that wiki on the "featured wikis" thing of FANDOM [04:38:02] hell nah man lol [04:40:54] if fandom really wants to prevent their policies from getting violated and reputation towards investors from being tarnished they need to start reviewing wikis on creations lol [04:44:27] although it won't save their overall reputation [04:46:24] I honestly don't think they could wrangle the necessary paid/unpaid labor to pursue any real and timely review process. [04:47:29] If folks think our queue is bad, I shudder to think what a fandom WC queue would look like. [04:48:28] Er, well, I take that back. They could probably acquire the labor, but I don't know that it'd be cost effective, esp. with the loss of revenue growth by slowing creations. [11:41:00] I don't think reviewing wiki creations would work out for them unless they completely 180'd into a smaller, tightly curated set of projects and changed their expectation/business model [11:41:48] reputation tarnishing really has little to do with what wikis they host any more than facebook or youtube or tiktok are, if you see the pattern here it's the administration at scale which takes, in terms of safe harbor almost demands a bit of a hands off attitude [11:42:08] the problem is other aspects like how they make sweeping ill advised changes that alienate substantial portions of their base [11:44:05] [1/2] That's quite good news. [11:44:06] [2/2] I wish I can escape from Fandoom without being held back by their stupid SEO [11:46:23] getting shutdown by fandom itself these days is more a pro than con lol [11:51:06] miraheze doesn't want to become 'the nsfw farm' per se but hey, it's always been open as long as the wikis can stay in line [11:51:30] ...there's a market, a red light wiki farm [11:52:13] I think someone should make an extension that pops up NSFW warning cookie [11:52:47] Given the nature of some wikis may contain NSFW stuffs [11:53:21] that's what the nsfw flag in the request form should do on the other end, enable basic nsfw protections [11:53:33] I'm not sure any are in place though [11:53:42] wait, there's basic nsfw protections? [11:53:47] 👀 [11:53:58] warning cookie/shield would be the main feature [11:54:03] I'm purely speculating [11:54:03] i believe there's a proposal on phorge to show a warning [11:55:13] it could also affect wikidiscover search filtering and allow people to more strongly avoid content if they set a flag in their global preferences, but maybe I'm getting too ambitious [11:56:16] it would also be useful in order to ensure nsfw project response gets, well, adult cvt members from the getgo considering much of our cvt team is not of age (though they could always be exposed to extreme content depending on the incident, it's a risk of the job - but it needn't be more than it has to be) [11:56:56] content policy compliance would be a breeze, if a wiki is not properly marked just mark it and done [12:05:14] They just had a wave of layoffs on GameSpot soooo [12:05:46] There’s a task to add a full page confirmation to NSFW wikis [12:05:58] wanna implement https://github.com/Neamar/KISS/issues/2338, but i'm too lazy to handle hiding private apps [12:06:23] Allso [12:06:32] Happy spooky day everyone!!! [12:06:42] spooky day! [12:06:50] also holy shit it's nearly close to the end of the year! [12:09:57] Yeeaaa [12:10:07] Claire are you dressing up for Halloween? [12:10:19] uh, no ^^; [12:10:27] :( have you ever [12:10:33] no :( [12:10:55] also, sammy makes me feel weird gender things when they put on the cat ears [12:11:01] fox ears*** [12:11:05] oh my god >///< [12:11:35] okay, i should look into ircv3 so that i can edit that message /j [12:11:51] Aw man, I gotta file you under the same drawer as tali [12:11:59] hm? [12:12:17] at least she won't go straight in the cupboard [12:12:28] yeah because i'm already in the closet lmfao- [12:12:53] When I go trick or treat I’ll set aside a piece of candy for u [12:13:10] thank you <3 [12:13:26] Do you like peanut butter [12:13:41] yeah? [12:13:59] oh yeah, i drank like half a bottle of coffee this afternoon [12:14:20] reason? 10% because i was eepy, 90% because i liked the taste [12:16:10] Coffee is gross [12:16:36] you're welcome <3 [12:17:21] I walk into shop and forgot we have a Halloween party haha [12:17:28] Half of em are playing poker [12:23:12] spooky day yay [12:23:31] it is about to be the end of the spooky day [12:23:50] rip aus epooky day [12:24:00] That's not a bad thing [12:24:05] * RhinosF1 is old and grumpy [12:24:09] epooky day sounds like a transfem event [12:24:12] because eep [12:24:22] Although next is bonfire night, that's even worse [12:24:22] couple of years ago my aus friend cosplayed Dave Ball in one of music videos lol [12:26:59] Oooh a carrier movement tomorrow [17:26:19] Happy Halloween to those who celebrate it~ [17:39:58] I don't do so in my country irl, but happy halloween regardless! [17:54:09] Fandom laid off another 11% of staff lmao [17:55:50] across all properties? [17:56:00] saw the news about GameSpot at least [18:06:03] https://x.com/WebDesignMuseum/status/1851669841033285739 [18:46:48] peak web design [18:51:29] Someone PLEASE tell me they've watched Agatha All Along? [19:30:52] https://www.peachpie.io/ wth i love this [19:31:55] Modern, secure? [19:32:01] Are we talking about the same thing? [20:51:58] Jeez what’s with fandom have bad staff decisions or something [20:52:22] no they are having financial issues [20:53:00] its about ~7 acquisitions, several money injections by TPG and they are still not meeting financial goals by the looks of it [20:53:18] I would be surprised if they are around in ~5 yeaes [20:55:20] wikiteam is gonna have to work overtime :P [20:56:14] so this is some Embracer Group kind of fuck up? [20:57:22] what is embracer group [21:01:00] company which bought loads of video game studios and publishers, and recently swiftly started shutting down or selling some of them realising they're in negative [21:02:15] eh, they just need to put 2500% more ads on their wikis, it'll be fine [21:02:16] most notably they sold Gearbox Entertainment to Take Two (which is fucking sad, man) [21:03:57] They've actually been trying to improve the ad hell lately [21:04:06] really? [21:04:40] to me it still looks pretty bad [21:04:52] but idk, i guess i haven't seen any fullscreen ones lately [21:05:58] Mainly on places that arent seen as much by readers i think [21:06:06] iirc they removed from non mainspace/ [21:30:50] Alright oof for them [21:34:39] Shouldn't have been there anyway [21:35:00] Allowing that kind of JS to run on non content pages is a huge security risk [21:36:49] ph def [22:05:40] https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5vbk0TwkokM
