🤣 Microsoft is going all-in with its automated moderation tools, blocking Discord messages just for saying "MicroSlop." The meme, popular among annoyed devs to poke fun at buggy or bloated software, is now being flagged by Microsoft’s AI as "hate speech."

Honestly, this is what happens when a company lets algorithms handle "cultural sensitivity" on autopilot. Sure, technically "slop" can be an insult, but the AI totally misses the inside joke that devs are making. Instead of listening to what people are actually saying about their products, Microsoft just turbocharged the meme, and now it’s guaranteed to go viral even faster. Classic Streisand Effect.

🧠 Automated moderation keeps tripping over inside jokes and creative digs.
⚡ The AI just can’t tell the difference between an honest rant and real harassment.
🎓 Now everyone’s getting clever with new euphemisms to dodge the ban.
🔍 This move accidentally brought gamers and devs together; everyone’s roasting Microsoft now.

So there's serverless where you (in theory) pay someone else to deal with the serving of your applications. But when are we getting "pipelineless"?

edge on the left creating a proper preview while librewolf on the right fails to generate a proper image preview. And yes the previews really do get rendered that way everywhere afterwards :(((((

Hoping it's just a setting in librewolf because edge(chrome) makes me uncontrollably sad

@[email protected] We should definitely make #free and #opensource #softare more accessible to everyone.

Contributing to free software should be easier and less difficult, definitely. The free software movement need more conttributors.

Is hacktoberfest achieving this goal? I'm not convinced
