It’s one of those things that can absolutely be done with care, effort, and money. But we lack a government that will put any of those toward the project. And the private sector will actively undermine it to scrape a few more pennies off the top.

Subd. 3. Exemption. The prohibitions in subdivision 2 do not apply when the website, application, software, program, or other service requires the technical skill of a user to nudify an image or video.

I get the idea, but this doesn’t comfort me, because what is “technical skill” here? That seems subjective and will ultimately be up to a court to decide. What constitutes a skill? It’s prompting a skill? Is prompting Photoshop’s AI a skill? Their lasso tool is pretty easy to use. The line isn’t clear, and a clever lawyer, or a judge, or a jury could come down differently on what counts and what doesn’t.

I get the goal here. But I think we were already covered by the existing law that made distribution of these artificial nudes illegal.

Creating and distributing AI nudes of people was already illegal in Minnesota. This is a separate law that makes hosting or providing any service or “software” that has the ability to do that illegal. It is broadly worded and makes more than the intended target illegal, which was already illegal to begin with.

Razzia, formerly Rahoot. Self hostable.

You are on the right path. Most stuff people self host requires very little horsepower. Most of your CPU will be idle in the end. Things might get expensive if you want to add a lot of storage, but the good news is that can be added later as you need it. I think you’ll be surprised just how much a modern-ish laptop can host.

• 4 Dell T 7810s
• 4 hard drive cages (14 drives)
• Amcrest NVR
• TV Antenna
• 2 Ubiquiti WiFi APs
• Buttload of switches around the house
• Protectli Vault mini-pc running pfsense for my router
• ProxMox cluster with about 30 virtual machines running everything

I love the Dells I use. They’re wonderful little workhorses, and I got a pretty good deal as they used to mine chia cryptocurrency.

I can believe it for their best developers.

What would worry me is this being true for their middle and low tier developers.

Just looked at the PCB board and man that guy is such a insufferable, gatekeeping twat.

The only alternatives may be decentralized, and building those may be a messy process.

ActivityPub compliant banking system when?

That’s pretty slick!

I have run it for years, and I wish they weren’t so limiting and heavy-handed in trying to force people into a paid subscription.
