Lol, I'm sure I absolutely deserve the label. Done more than my share of splitting hairs and refusing to budge in arguments around here.

Curl is getting a slew of amatuer programmers throwing non-tuned AI at the project and just saying "go find problems" then throwing it as pull requests at curl when the pull creators have no ability to understand what the AI found or the code it generated. Curl never asked for it, and they aren't self identifying as AI generated.
In contrast, Mozilla is actively working with Anthropic on this, which implies at least some amount of coordination and intent with this. That would mean professionals from Anthropic and Mozilla fine tuning these AIs to reduce false positives. They will also be clearly labeled as AI generated. If it results in needless busywork, they're free to cut the agreement at any time.
I'm not a particular fan of this either, and I think that there's plenty of ground to cover with less resource intensive pattern matching bug and error detection schemes that should be focused on first, but this is absolutely not the same situation that happened to curl.
I think there's a racing game that does as well. SimCar maybe?
It legitimately would have been easier and higher quality to use an image editor.
As others have said, welcome to lemmy.
Dessalines is one of the lead devs, admin of the flagship instance lemmy.ml (and mod of many of its comms as you've seen). He is known to be incredibly heavy handed in his admin/moderation choices.
As far as using communities goes, just steer clear of .ml comms if it's a problem for you. Plenty of equivalent comms on other instances.
And if you don't like using software made by someone like that, piefed is interoperable. Made by a user that goes by rimu.
The takeaway is that this isn't unusual or concerning behavior for dessalines.
Check multiple instances. .ml may be the flagship instance, but a lot of communities are more busy on topic specific instances. Nice thing about lemmy and federation is that you don't need to hop sites to get their communities.
Programming.dev has most of the programming related comms. lemmy.dbzer0.com for piracy (and self-hosted AI). There's a furry run instance, blahaj for LGBTQIA+ stuff, an anime focused instance, a literature focused one, a nsfw one, and lemmy.world for most else.
But doctor, I am Pagliacci
I hope it's just a joke
Yes, the classic Mozilla April Fools joke, released a full month early.
What's the movie?
There have been some artists that did actual performance art similar to this. "Miniskirt" made of mirrors with nothing underneath, so that participants would theoretically have to look at themselves while touching the female artist/performer below the belt.
To me it reeked of some odd fetishy shit, but that was the stated intent, to make people reflect on treating women like objects.
It's time for America's favorite game show: Kink or Killer!

Dankpods used 12 computers with different hardware to test the performance of 5 games in 1080p and 4K, comparing the average fps results of the games' built in benchmarks to determine which OS ran the game better across the same hardware: Windows or Bazzite.
Some notes on methodolgy under this spoiler
Each game uses the same in game graphics settings in Windows and in Linux. The Linux distro used was Bazzite, using the version specific for the graphics card hardware fpr each individual machine. To be clear, this means that he installed the Bazzite version for (legacy) nVidia as appropriate.
Each bazzite install was fresh, no copying installs or swapping around a drive with it pre-installed. After install, it was updated using system update and rebooted, repeated until no updates remained.
Screenshots of some of Dankpods's comments to this effect:
There are many comments under the youtube video pointing out that in many of the Linux runs, it was not actually using the correct driver, comments about the experience using other distros, and comments about various potential fixes and workarounds.
This misses the point. Dankpods intentionally tested this way, and used Bazzite, to try and show what this would be like for the average gamer schmuck without a ton of technical skill interested in switching to Linux. Out of box experience matters in this situation, even though it's not quite fair to compare that between free opens source distros and an OS created by a megacorp. To the average end user, it won't matter. They just want it to work.
Prepare to be upset. With this particular testing methodology, Linux doesn't really win overall.
I'm interested to hear the community's thoughts on this.

Check the new pinned post in .ml's meme community. Here's the post itself:
There's so much goofiness to unpack here.
And a bonus, this small comment thread. We're totally not a marxist instance guys but we totally are a marxist instance guys and it's such a good thing:
I can't mentally square how someone could claim their instance is general use, run a general meme community, and also openly state the community purpose is to further specific ideology. Wow.
Nothing against surfacing lesser heard voices, but that's not the place for a generic meme comm (go make a leftymemes equivalent or something), and we all know that isn't what's really going on here.
Someone gifted this to my wife and I after our successful IVF. Still haven't put our photos in it, and everytime I see it I giggle.
Miracle Love Baby sounds like some magical girl anime shit.
