Yeah, this is pretty much exactly what I thought about when I saw Musk's stupid racist tweet: Minnesotans have spent the last month and a half saying we will die to defend our multicultural community.

It's also part of a very direct negation of the latest stupid tweet by Musk: people have given so much, two of them their lives, to defend a multicultural city and the rights of people not exactly like them. And that multiculturalism is American culture.

sometimes I think about how "Punk" was a homophobic slur originally and that there's an alternate timeline where people go to "fag concerts" and read "cyberfag" and "steamfag" books

Whatever happened to dragons?? 🙄
two panels labeled "dragons then:" and "dragons now:" The left panel has a realistically rendered dragon similar to something you'd see in Dungeons and Dragons. On the right is my fursona, a cartoony dragon with purple hair and a silly expression on its face.

It's quite something that the cultural impact of the Hindenburg disaster seems to be "airships always explode because there's just no way to fill them with anything that doesn't explode, I've never heard of inert gas" rather than "lmao Nazi engineers were so fucking bad at their jobs"

an AI/LLM does not and cannot know anything unless it has been translated to digital form.

vast amounts of very useful information about the world we live in is not digitalized.

A historian colleague of mine once blew someone’s mind after he asked “can’t you just look that up online?” and she replied “who do you think finds that stuff and puts it online?”

This post is going viral, but this isn't walking back. It's reiterating the initial press release. There's no new information in this post, aside from them saying they're using a different ID partner (which doesn't solve that problem) and the Reddit joke. Everything else is the same. Keep pushing.

Discord is already starting to walk things back a little, so people should keep doing what they're doing (cancel Nitro, leave feedback/criticism, direct contact through support tickets/phone/email/etc)
Tl;dr: The vast majority of adults will never have to interact with our age assurance systems and their experience won't change, because we know Discord and how people use it, so we're designing to respect privacy and deliver a safer experience while minimizing friction for adults. Hey folks – I’ve been on Discord since very early 2016 and actually joined the company in 2017. Safety is one of my areas, so today’s announcement on our blog is something I’ve been pretty involved with. I’ve always cared about Discord's approach to privacy (E2EE for A/V was another of my projects here), so I figured I’d add some more context to today's news. I can say confidently that the vast majority of people will never see age verification. I say this because we launched age assurance in the UK and Australia in 2025, and we have some pretty good data on this now. The idea here is that we can pre-identify most adults based on what we already know (not including your messages!), and that looks to get us pretty far here. No face scans, no IDs, for the vast majority of adults. And if you are one of the smaller subset of folks that we can't definitively pre-identify, then still, you only have to do it if you're accessing age-restricted servers or channels, or changing certain settings. That's really not most users. (Altho... might be more Redditors, tbh.) Last, I know that there is concern about privacy and data leaks. That's a real concern. The selfie system is built purely client-side, it never leaves your device, and we did that intentionally. That'll work for a bunch of users who aren't pre-identified as adults. But if you do end up in the ID bucket, then yeah, you're right that has some risk. We're doing what we can to minimize this by working with our range of partners (who are different partners than the data leak you read about), and if it's any help, we learned a lot internally from the last issue. But I get if that doesn't necessarily inspire more confidence. Anyway, we’ll be sharing more next month as we get closer to the global roll out about the system, including the technology behind it in March. I honestly wouldn't be happy if we didn't build something good and I am excited about what we’re launching, but please let us know what you think when we share more details. And I really appreciate everybody's feedback here today. We’re definitely reading it!

people online are always talking about wanting to go back to "PS2 aesthetics" yet I don't think they truly understand that such a desire must inevitably coincide with and include a revival of big beat
