MODERATORS
Heads up, We are mostly moving this community over to Lemmy.world. If you're wondering where most of the funny went, go to !196@lemmy.world! If you're wondering why we did this, click here.
==please incorporate the word rule in your post titles==
Here are the things that get you banned:
-saying anything remotely iffy with a lemmygrad or hexbear account
-tankie behaviour
-nazi behaviour
-authoritarian behaviour
-genocide denial
-prejudice of any kind
-anything else that is clearly bad
Things that get your post/comment removed:
-AI generated content
-anything in the banlist
-posts that are so off topic that they don't fit on 196 at all
-moldy memes (old memes, crusty memes, irrelevant memes. The type of things you'd see on your aunt's Facebook page or Elon musk's Twitter account with a laughing emoji as the caption)
-corpoposting
Ban length varies, and is mostly based off of whether or not I think you will change your behavior. I have baned certain people for upwards of 2000 days.
---------EDIT:NSFW RULES---------
NSFW Content is now fully permitted BUT it must be tagged. Any NSFW content that has not been tagged and blurred will be removed. Content warnings should also be added to the title in brackets. Example: [penis] or: [explicit description of sex].
Non-sexualized breasts of any gender are not considered inappropriate and therefore do not need to be blurred/tagged. Yes, even female breasts.
IRL GORE IS NOT PERMITTED UNDER ANY CONDITION.

Can someone explain the no AI rule? I keep tripping over that one. @moss@lemmy.blahaj.zone
No AI generated content, so no Midjourney, ChatGPT, etc.
There are several reasons for this:
Thanks. I couldn't wrap my head around it.
I don't really agree, with the viewpoint, but I'll continue to try and be mindful of the stuff I post.
Could you elaborate how you disagree with 2 & 3?
not OP but someone did a pretty good writeup on 3) a year ago
tw reddit link (ew) https://old.reddit.com/r/aiwars/comments/11v5ovu/energy_footprint_of_ai_image_as_against_a_piece/jcsj7uy/
Oh man that post is a hot mess. Comparing energy used by a human to AI? Guess we don't need all those artists, better round em up and eliminate them because of some reddit math.
that’s the argument OOP was making. I didn’t make it, I never said we should remove human artists. I think human creativity/creation will and should become even more valued in the coming years. You’re putting words in my mouth, that’s not very nice.
You called the write up pretty good, idk man I was just responding to the information provided. Not really putting words in anyone's mouth but my own.
I never said we dONT nEED aLL tHeSE aRTiSTS, I gave you a pretty convincing refutal to the argument that AI uses more energy than human artists. Not anything else.
fuck ai that's why
I like the cut of your jib. Mod abuse Mondays need to make a return
ill consider it
