Fellow rDrama redditors, come sneed in the comments about how you'll totes quit after this or when they kill old reddit or if you came from 4chan, sharty, kiwifarms, or anywhere that isn't reddit or twitter, laugh and celeberate in the comments about how Reddit is killing itself

If I have to use the official Reddit app on my phone, I will simply not use Reddit on my phone.

https://old.reddit.com/r/modnews/comments/13wshdp/api_update_continued_access_to_our_api_for/jmdd426/

Why is the pricing so high? It would cost me a comical $20 million dollars a year to keep my app running as-is, an app that like many third-party apps, have many moderators that depend on it.

I'm not sure if you understand how important third party apps are to the Reddit ecosystem. Not only do they provide an opportunity for folks who don't like the official app to be able to still use Reddit on-the-go, but many of the moderators who serve as the backbone of the entire site rely on third-party apps to do their job.

As a number, Apollo currently has over 7000 moderators of subreddits with over 20K subscribers who use Apollo, from /r/Pics, to /r/AskReddit, to /r/Apple, to /r/IAmA, etc. It would be easy to imagine that combined with other third-party apps across iOS and Android that well over 10,000 of the top subreddits use third-party apps to moderate and keep their community operating.

This is equivalent to going to a construction site and taking away all the workers' favorite cowtools, only to replace them with different, corporate-mandated ones. Except the construction workers are also building your houses for free.

Why infuriate so many people and communities?

Our intent is not to shut down third-party apps. Our pricing is specifically based on usage levels that we measure to be as equitable as possible. We’re happy to work with third-party apps to help them improve efficiency, which can significantly impact overall cost. [-156, admin]

:!marseydrawing1: PSA: You can use Adobe's new generative fill feature standalone on their site for free :marseychuddance:

Follow up to the previous post: https://rdrama.net/h/marsey/post/174770/marsoyhype-its-over-for-artcels-with

https://i.rdrama.net/images/16855499008312178.webp https://i.rdrama.net/images/1685550580095228.webp

Found out on this Github discussion post (quite a :marseylongpost: but basically a web UI for StableDiffusion wants to emulate what Photoshop's able to do) that the generative fill nonsense can be used on their Firefly site: https://firefly.adobe.com/

This weekend someone told me that you do not really need an Adobe Subscription to use Firefly, and the popular Generative Fill can be used from their website (even without an Adobe account)!

After learning about this, I tested that Firefly Generative Fill with some test images used during the development of ControlNet. The performance of that model is super impressive and the technical architecture is more user-friendly than Stable Diffusion toolsets.

Overall, the behaviors of Adobe Firefly Generative Fill are:

1. if users do not provide any prompts, the inpaint does not fail, and the generating is guided by image contents.

2. if users provide prompts, the generating is guided by both prompts and image contents.

3. Given its results, it is likely that the results with or without prompts are generated by a same model pipeline.

They're right about not needing an Adobe subscription to use it but you still need to have an Adobe account so make a throwaway one or something if you're afraid of the glowies :!marseyspyglow:

Just thought it might be interesting if you saw the earlier post but didn't want to install Photoshop from a random Google drive link or something :!marseyspyglow: or you're using a Chromebook like me

The generated images might not be super duper great or anything but it's pretty decent if it's just some simple shenanigans I guess, plus it's free (apart from Adobe collecting your user data :marseyschizowave: )

Autism bros... They're onto us

"We believe that the clues to understanding autism lie in that genome," Rob Ring, Autism Speaks' chief science officer, told WIRED. "We'd like to leverage the same kind of technology and approach to searching the internet every day to search into the genome for these missing answers."

The project will make use of Google Genomics, a tool launched by the company several months ago with little fanfare on Google's Cloud Platform. As sequencing the human genome becomes ever-faster and cheaper---Ring says it can be done for about $2,500, compared to nearly $3 billion for the Human Genome Project---the volume of genetic data generated by researchers has grown astronomically. By allowing researchers to dump that data onto its servers, Google gets to show off and improve the capabilities of its cloud while providing a potentially important service.

They will surely use this to genocide neurodivergents like Iceland does to downies. :#marseyitsover:

Vinay's backstory isn't very interesting. He's yet another crypto grifter. He used to be the release manager of Ethereum, now he's running some kind of real estate NFT business. HN doesn't like it: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=33878584

The only reason I want to post about him is his unique combination of low IQ, autism and narcissm, that makes him post tweets like this:

I didn't watch the video, but I'm sure it's fascinating.

I found out about him from his feud with Molly White, an outspoken crypto skeptic:

Rust: The wrong people are resigning

Context: Some black guy was going to be the first BIPOC to present a keynote at RustConf, but got downgraded to a regular talk because nerds were salty about some blog where he criticised Rust for some nerd shit. Obviously this was racism and not just neurodivergents being neurodivergents, because he's the only negro magical enough to care about Rust. Now there's a new wave of drama I can't be bothered to understand, go read it for yourself.

I recommend that Soapbox admins disable greentext support if you have it enabled. It uses Pleroma FE's vulnerable HTML parser. I am temporarily removing support for it in Soapbox.

The R in :marseyrave: Rust :marseyrave: stands for rDrama

We should shit up every thread of this drama we find. Leave this post visible so then future Rust drama will be falsely labeled as an rDrama op.

What is the most grillpilled language

I'm kinda tired of trend peepeeriders and their cooming over the latest current thing in programming circles, every 5 minutes its

>OMG HAVE YOU HEARD OF HOT NEW MINIMALIST JAVASCRIPT FRAMEWORK #9293 THAT LOOKS LIKE A LEGO SET

>OMG WE HAVE TO DEFEND RUST FROM LE CORPORATIONS HOW COULD THEY BE SUBVERTING TRANS RIGHTS

>OMG KOTLIN MAKES ME SO UNIQUE, WE'RE SAVING THE JAVA ECOSYSTEM THROUGH VEGANISM

>OMG YOUR LINUX INSTALL HAS TO HAVE THIS WM AND THIS COMPOSITOR AND THIS DESKTOP AND THIS RICE ALL CONFIGURED IN THIS SHELL LANGUAGE

all this shit is insanely lame and I have no idea how anyone is passionate about any of it

I'm thinking of picking up C# just because it's grillpilled and gets away from this tism, what other languages accomplish this

Basically this :marseytrain: got his talk on compile-time reflection downgraded from keynote to regular talk. Cope, seethe and dilation ensues.

For more context: a month ago, a lot of what I thought were decent sounding talks were just straight up rejected from RustConf and this caused a lot of twitter seethe. Additionally, there was a whole trademark debacle where the rust foundations tried to claim the rust logo as their intellectual property, causing a lot of pushback.

Overall, I think the larger trend is the corpo-fication of rust. Look at all the jewish chads from Amazon, Google, etc. in the leadership of the Rust foundation. Very bearish on the future of the language, especially since a lot of its semantics remain unspecified. Will rust be coopted by the tech cartel like all the web standards did and become r-slurred? !codecels discuss.
