This comment section is gathering personal attacks so we are locking it.

Additionally: we don’t have a rule against AI generated images, so we had a discussion about this and wanted to hear what the !buyeuropean@feddit.uk community thinks about it before acting on the reports.

Will announce more about the AI discussion soon in a separate post.

Mate, my wife can hand craft you a scarf for 1000 euros, it will just take quite some time because she isn’t a machine. The quality will be of that of a 10 euros scarf, but hey, it took a lot of labour hours.

perfectionism is the enemy of progress

This is a “buy european” community, not an anti-AI one. This image gets the message across. It doesn’t have to pass a purity test.

The text made me suspicious - I never really thought about why it looks weird, but from closer inspection it looks like almost every letter is unique. It just has such an uncanny look. If it was made with a normal font then letters should be near identical. I suppose some artists who hand draw text could be caught up, but I don’t think that’s common unless they’re drawing a uniquely stylized font. For fonts like this that are just plain, it wouldn’t make sense to hand draw each character.

The 2 apostrophes in don’t and doesn’t in the bottom left are a super obvious example

Not OP but when I saw the font it reminded me of the same font used in AI generated drawings with words. Can’t be sure though, usually there’s some defect in the words but not this one

Meeting in the middle has turned a country of union supporters into fascists in less than 50 years.

We’ve been falling for the “lesser of two evils” rhetoric since Nixon.

Neoliberals are on the same team as the oligarchs.

I often see people giving others flack for switching to Proton because their CEO etc.

But any step in the right direction should be praised, Proton etc. Is far from perfect, but it’s so much better then never moving away from Google / Microsoft etc.

Upvote cause good point, but I have to really mention that OpSec is a black and white thing.

You make one OpSec mistake and you’re cooked. Look how they got Ross Ulbricht.

Meshtastic seems to me to be easiest to have good OpSec at the moment and I really hope we can develop it further.

It supports encryption. I think encryption is only forbidden when using ham radio

I believe all mechtastic channels are encrypted, it’s just that the default channel’s key is preloaded so that everyone can use it as a “public” channel.

This reply by @pelespirit@sh.itjust.works on the original post may help someone here:

Imperfect Allies Aren’t Enemies

  • Critique to build, not tear down
  • Organize, don’t just argue
  • Movements win, not individuals
  • Perfection is the enemy of progress
  • Ego kills movements
  • Plan for the long game
  • Meet people where they are
  • Power doesn’t care about feelings
  • Division is a weapon used by elites, don’t play along
