With the city and surrounding areas shaking (1600x earthquakes in the last 24 hours) it seems Iceland's newest volcano is about to erupt.

That would make it the third time it does so, with each instance spaced with about roughly a year between.

To anyone thinking about joining BlueSky, especially artists: everything you post is sent to a third party for AI labeling.

BlueSky uses AI to label content for moderation, and to do that they use a company called https://thehive.ai. If you look through their privacy policy, you will see that they can use content sent to them to train models for all their services, which include generative AI for both text and images.

In my culture (en_GB) this reads as *heavy* sarcasm.

But in theirs (en_INT?) I suspect it was heavily focus-grouped and found to be perceived as sincere.

You: You haven't spent your Sunday chasing bees round the garden with your camera then drawing on the photos have you?

Me: What?! That sounds like a foolish way to waste an afternoon!

Also me: Yes, yes I have.
