Fuck I love how queer FOSS is. When big tech corporations switch there support of LGBT organizations dependent on which party is in power to make a profit, FOSS will maintain there position.
Well, a core of FOSS. Unfortunately, there are many jerkasses within the FOSS community, see the Xlibre developer.
i’d rather be greeted by Anubis than be harassed by CloudFlare.
I’d rather be greeted by the Sphinx and asked to solve a riddle than another captcha.
What happens when we anser the riddle wrong?
Anubis doesn’t repeatedly fuck me in the ass for using a VPN and hardened firefox settings.
seconded
First of all, it’s a jackal girl.
Second, we wouldn’t need Anubis if it wasn’t for the hoard of scraping bots trying to copy every line of source code they can, to feed into LLM to be ground up and spat out as an attributionless mass of Frankenstein code.
Would they rather it be a soulless corporate logo? A flat two tone rounded corner letter on a square?
I think we collectively agreed FOSS mascots need to be full furry, preferably drawn by that one artist who did the KDE mascots
Tyson Tan, who also did Freedom Planet 2 designs.
The only way to fight multi-billionaire corporations is by being a little
controversialopinionated.
The issue isn’t even that they copy it once anymore. That would be a one and done thing.
The biggest problem is that they can’t even be arsed to copy anything but the URL. They save their own resources by feeding only the address and metadata into the training model and then letting it loose to collect the datasets for itself again.
That means every new model and every slight tweak is an additional crawler that will spamm your server with requests, all because these lunatics are too cheap to buy their own hdds.
yep. this is like somebody putting a giant retro reflective wall in front of their house because the person across from them idles their vehicle with blinding LED headlights every morning for 10 minutes pointed straight in the living room
The world is dominated by people like this Karen. Making society so fucking dry, boring, and lifeless. The same sort of people who invented corpospeak.
I hate that society is largely driven by people who think that whimsy must die with your childhood
It’s also people who think that anything out of the ordinary must be dirty and perverted.
No its not. But you have that typical personality type in computers. The one who is all facts and data, very logical but very low emotional iq. And sometimes autistic, uncomfortable with default social norms.
That kind of person would put more stats in that screen rather than a picture. Or the picture would be something default, like a loading bar.
I dont see that type dominating the world outside. If you would go outside your door! :)
The real world is also not dominated by furries. However, pedophile, autistic billionaries are leading it into a huge transformation where we will have dystopia.
I’d rather this than find all of the stoplights in an array of 9, move a puzzle piece into the hole, or even sit through cloudflare (that fails more times than it succeeds). Catgirl nurse any fuckin day!
At least it’s not a hypersexualized catgirl.
Ifykyk 😂
idk :(
Weebs and furries, man. Weebs and furries. They run the entire digital infrastructure.
Remember y’all computers are gay.
As the software is called Anubis, technically,
she’sthey’re a jackalgirlNon binary actually!
Edit: It looks like I’m wrong! See down below. The dev is enby while the mascot appears to be a girl
Got a source on this?
The artist uses female pronouns for them.
Mascot seems to be a girl, yes. Main dev is non binary.
Xe is the dev, not the artist
In the previous post Xe said they’ve been commissioned to make Anubis mascot. So I believe that makes Xe the artist ?
They said “I’ve been commissioning an artist” in the Git screenshot above so Xe, the developer, commissioned some artist to create the mascot.
Oops, my reading abilities are not ao great lol !
Ah looks like I might’ve misunderstood then. The dev is enby, not the mascot
The artist (according to the attributions file on the github) also gives her female pronouns, I think they avoid it though I see the word mascot used most often.
edit: linked attributions file as well because it’s served in an unconventional location.
The artist uses female pronouns for them.
… for her?
Gender-neutral term are never wrong and maybe there was another source for it.
Not sure who has the technical authority to decide the pronouns of a fictional character, commissioned artist or the commissioner.
the joke is that while discussing if a character has neutral or female pronouns, you referred to the character by the neutral pronouns while declaring that the character is female.
I managed to write that whole sentence while avoiding saying “they” or “her”. Go me!
So far we got
- not a cat but jackal
- not a girl but nonbinary
- not a heart but canada leaf
I’ll add
- not “something to watch” but OC
- not a nurse
She is a girl, but she’s not anime. She’s a Canadian drawing
Who said something about a heart? The leaf looks a bit like a red +, I think that’s why they saw it as nurse
Look, FOSS comes in two flavors.
Either all the contributor profile pics are flash lit smiling photos of middle aged bearded guys with glasses standing in an office, or they’re anime girls.
I constantly get reminded that Gonzo, even in business attire, is not an acceptable professional avatar to upload to the companys Windows profile. I’m also a contractor so I dgaf.
I’ve gone for the corpo middle ground and my company picture is the Japanese business blahaj in a suit. I’ve been told, “I don’t even look for your name I just look for the shark, it stands out more”
Where I work, profile pictures come in 2 flavors. Headshots or cat photos. I excersied radical free will and chose a rooster shooting lasers out it’s eyes.
or creatures :3
It’s the same demographic for both.
Oh- well i guess i am not a developer anymore now XD
That’s the Canada maple leaf, not a ‘nurse thing’
Oh, she’s from Canada, you wouldn’t know her.
she goes to a different temple
Wait until they find out about Programmer Socks.
Open source really said solve this captcha or no code for you 😭
He 100% watches “that stuff”
Probably just wanked off to a catgirl. His post was inspired by the post-nut clarity.
And that’s the reason he complains. The only association to anime in his mind is porn.
Who the hell is this pissed off at a cat girl
I’m guessing fathers
The kind of whimsiless corpo half-person who seems embarrassed to know that anime is a thing, and can’t mention it without assuring his audience that he doesn’t watch that stuff
Conservatives. They hate everything.
Spurned lover.
idk i think its pretty out of place and gets kind of obnoxious seeing specifically anime furry adjacent stuff all the time. If its your thing, its really your thing, if its not your thing its mildly annoying/occasionally weird. Theres some communities where if youre an outsider its better not to engage with the fandom but thats hard when its your job to interact with these people all day.
ok tangent: i used to think furries are mostly innocent nice nerds, but then i found out how the vast majority are into it as a kink or some kind of nasty besti*lity cartoon fetish nasty nasty. I get reallly uncomfy around those dudes that wear the mascot head to walmart or whatever bc i feel like hes gonna jerk off about being a dog later
edit: yeah that sums up my feelings, i feel gross like youre exposing me/involving me in your kink when i see that stuff. not in an extreme way or anything. but the nature of it being wantinf to fck dogs takes it up a notch
What’s your basis for saying the vast majority are into it as a kink thing? Because I’m someone who used to feel uneasy about furries for much the same reason you are — but that was when I personally knew few, if any people who were furries.
Over the last few years, my work has meant that I’ve met more furries than I can count, becoming friends with many of them, and developing a better understanding of what being a furry offers them. It’s not a sex thing for the vast majority of furries I have known. This isn’t just based on my experience either — I have an artist friend who draws furry porn for a living. Although she is not a furry herself, she exists in close proximity to the furry community so that she can network and get commissions, and she agrees that the people for whom it’s a kink thing is a minority
I was a furry before I had words for it, way before I knew anything about sex stuff… I learned the term “furry” around 2002 and was shocked there was a term for it, and quite a few other people who felt the same way I did!
Furry porn is a thing the same way anime porn is a thing. Just because someone’s into anime doesn’t mean they’re jerkin it to anime all the time
Sees harmless picture of anime girl somewhere on the internet
DON’T INVOLVE ME WITH YOUR GROSS BEASTIALITY KINK
anime furry
It’s literally a cartoon.
This reaction is not neutral. You’re missing the people in between those repulsed by the idea of silly animal cartoons (you) and those who actively enjoy silly animal cartoons. Which is everybody else, who just see a cartoon and do not care.
Legitimate completely non-sarcastic question because I’m actually curious. How do you feel about trans rights and how do you feel about Trump?
then i found out how the vast majority are into it as a kink or some kind of nasty besti*lity cartoon fetish nasty nasty.
Well, good news! You’re wrong!
A furry is simply somebody who’s a fan of anthropomorphics. For example, I’m a fan of the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles. I do not want to fuck the TMNT. I’m willing to bet most fans of the TMNT don’t.
I get reallly uncomfy around those dudes that wear the mascot head to walmart or whatever bc i feel like hes gonna jerk off about being a dog later
Maybe. Why do you care, though? It sounds like you’re upset about kinky people existing.
