This is your occasional reminder that generative "AI" in particular could have been developed on public domain materials and/or licensed and compensated works but the major players intentionally, methodically and systemically chose to steal labor from working creative folks instead

It would be so funny if this ends up starting a domino chain where the corpos actually start getting fucked over hard
Anyways big ups, my brothers, sisters and non-comforming relative friends. Y'all made one hell of a strong statement in a mere 48 hrs.
Be proud. Keep flipping the bird to 'em.

The situation with FurAffinity is pretty amazing. Advertisers threatened their advertising revenue because they considered Plus Sized characters and characters HUGGING to be adult content.
So FA said fuck off, and in two days raised their entire yearly funding.
Advertisers are so bullshit stupid.

Yes, no AI is now a feature - TDF Community Blog
One of the comments on the announcement of LibreOffice 26.8 was a simple question: “So, no AI is now a feature?” LibreOffice does not reject artificial intelligence out of hand, but an office suite us...

FurAffinity (a furry focused online art gallery) is looking for funding after refusing to comply with advertiser demands. And oh boy are some of those advertiser demands are pretty ridiculous.

-good we've done it will never be enough to be comfortable asking for site donations/assistance.
Our resources are limited and avenues of rev aren't keeping bills paid. Depression is eating me up.
We have some ideas to bring funds in but again I worry about people hating it/us.
I'm tired.

A lot of people assume FA is profitable. If that were the case we wouldn't have needed a GFM when Neer passed to keep it out of probate.
It's been two years. The funds were used. FA is struggling financially. And I am 🌟s t r e s s e d🌟
I'm scared to ask for help, I feel like no matter how much-

#footsky does anybody else have low self esteem about their feet right now?
Within the last decade, I've had a few medical problems with my feet, and it just feels wrong to inflict them on others.

So, guys? You know that awesome band with the two polka-dot clad aliens?
The French Canadian ones with the fun noses.
And the guitar player is barefoot.
...
Why am I not seeing any foot - related art of them on my feed?
...
I'd draw it myself if I wasn't so burnt out.
