They’re looking for a “fuck you” to the US government more than they’re looking for a new social media. Maybe it will stick as a popular platform, but I suspect it was chosen more for its name and ties to the CCP than any actual features.

Let me guess, they used existing footage and reports as training data, and it produced an incredibly racist ai model that routinely ignores police misconduct. They’ll spend a couple years working on bandaids for the problem while police departments across the country use the original model to create reports and use the “unbiased ai reports” as an excuse to hide the raw footage.
2·11 months agoJust wanted to add, if you finish step 6 with a bit of excess bag collected on the outside of the bin fold it back flat against the outside of the bin and roll the top of the bag down over it a few times. Do it tightly and it holds fairly well without having to pull the drawstring until you take the bag out.

5·1 year agoI’ve never tried one, but I tdid look at them last time I got a new kb (2 years ago?). IIRC you can do pressure sensitivity, but meaningfully mapping that to game/software controls is often difficult. You can also adjust the trigger point if you’re using “standard” mode, and I think you can even set a different action for passing the trigger point and bottoming out the key.

I seem to remember that given as the official reason, and there were certainly plenty of complaints along those lines. Whether that was a convenient excuse for anti-communist schemes or the actual reason I don’t know. Most likely it was some of both, at least in the case of hexbear.
Calling hexbear a “trans instance” is pretty misleading. They’re explicitly political first and foremost, and happen to have a high concentration of trans/queer users. They were defederated by .world for being overbearing and disruptive, not because of their transness or queerness. Blahaj zone, by comparison, is explicitly a trans instance first and foremost, and is still federated by .world.
What trans instances have they defederated?
An apology doesn’t undo what you said any more than it brings someone back to life.
