Shop pop, whoppity slop, crops are here, it's time to stop.

This is a very famous poem. What is it about?

GPT-4o mini:

The lines you quoted are from the poem "The Song of the Witches" by William Shakespeare, specifically from "Macbeth." This poem is recited by the three witches in Act 4, Scene 1.

Themes and Meaning Supernatural Elements The poem reflects the supernatural themes prevalent in "Macbeth." The witches symbolize chaos and the dark forces that influence the characters' fates.

It goes on.

Chaotic good

What an unhinged thing to rely on an llm for.

Had a Cron job running

So they set up a Cron job to ask an llm to remind them of something that the cron job itself could have just reminded them?

Everything about this is so wrong lol

"We use technology or a review team to identify content that should be covered," a notice obscuring the post reads. "This post doesn't go against our Community Standards, but may contain images that some people might find upsetting."

Yeah, I bet.

I don't care if the list has Karl Marx, Jesus and my dad on it.

Anyone on that list needs to be held accountable.

As someone who replaces "core" apps with FOSS alternatives, the 24 hour wait is quite a punishment.

Mods are always the actual dumbest most power tripping little fuckers. (InB4 banned from this com)

Edit: This is actually just straight up racist / xenophobic the more I think about it.

The goal seems to be to control the internet like they've been controlling television and news.

This is never going away no matter how much we hate it and it has very little to do with age verification.

Wild they still play the "think of the children" card while ignoring the Epstein files.

I get that you can get around this but there are 2 major problems I see.

1. Google now has a flag on my phone they can control remotely to keep me from accessing the apps I want to use.

2. Alternative app stores like F-Droid will never be any more popular than they are today. This raises the barrier to entry so much that we can effectively consider the open source phone app movement to be dead in the water.

They always want you to be excited about things that don't benefit you in any way.

Wtf is this so though? I hate this trend or having to stop working every 2 seconds to prove you are working.

What is making you stink discord isn't also selling all its data to AI companies?

Itch.io just banned lgbt content at the reauest of payment providers

Do you have a source on this? Everything I have read from them so far about the news today makes this sound like a temporary problem that was out of their control.

This is a time critical moment for itch.io. The situation developed rapidly, and we had to act urgently to protect the platform’s core payment infrastructure. Unfortunately, this meant it was not realistic to provide creators with advance notice before making this change. We know this is not ideal, and we apologize for the abruptness of this change.

We are currently conducting a comprehensive audit of content to ensure we can meet the requirements of our payment processors. Pages will remain deindexed as we complete our review. Once this review is complete, we will introduce new compliance measures. For NSFW pages, this will include a new step where creators must confirm that their content is allowable under the policies of the respective payment processors linked to their account.

I'm pretty confident they will get this sorted out. It doesn't seem like they have any intention of banning nsfw content.

This is the new capitalist MO. To say the right words while doing the exact opposite.
