@taylan @ninapaley Skill issue for whom?

@ninapaley But a fetus cannot survive without the "host", so if said "host" caused said fetus to grow in her body voluntarily (say, by having consensual unprotected sex), she has the responsibility not to murder it.

@jeffcliff
Does anyone have a link? Screenshots aren't evidence.
Wtf if true.

@jeffcliff @taylan
>which of those are you?
I haven't thought it through enough.

@jeffcliff @taylan Only if you're being utilitarian about it. A deontologist might say that death by disease should be prevented regardless of age, whereas death by old age is unavoidable.

@taylan Wdym?

Anyone who tries to politicise maths and science is my mortal enemy.

@taylan @jeffcliff Why does it cease to matter when they are elderly though? Seems a bit self-centered to me.

I think I've found a good use of generative #AI.
Rewriting textual content on the internet to be more civil.

@glynmoody That makes no sense. Whether or not you try to defeat their arguments (which is obviously a good idea) is completely orthogonal to whether you block their donations (which I think should be done as well as Musk has no British citizenship).

@dalias @stux @Bellingcat So, you mean just mail to their takedown requests inbox or...?

@dalias @stux @Bellingcat I never said it did. You said to route mail from *.ru not *.gov.ru

@dalias @stux @Bellingcat Because Russians are still people, even if their government is full of assholes.

@dalias @stux @Bellingcat Doesn't Putin spread propaganda that western countries hate Russians? That will just confirm it.

@Gargron Not really, but whatever floats your boat

@ntnsndr There are two DID methods that ATProto supports: did:web, that allows you to host your own DID document using a webserver and not be beholden to anyone; and did:plc, where all DID documents are hosted on a single centralised server, https://plc.directory/

https://atproto.com/specs/did

@ntnsndr It's not a bug per se, it just puts you under the control of Bluesky PLC even more than otherwise.

@ntnsndr I don't really understand the point in using a supposedly decentralised system if everyone's just going to use the same identity server run by the developers.

Why do Bluesky users keep doing this (using their centralized "placeholder" DID)? It makes the system even more centralized than it would otherwise be. And it's already pretty centralised _de facto_.

@ntnsndr @axz Is it decentralised though?
I think democracy without decentralisation is toothless.
