Pretty sure lemmy can have the defaults set to local only, so you can keep the federation on, but by default local users only see local stuff.

I hate to be "that guy" but this almost certainly depends on the specific fertilisers and insecticides used.

For legal reasons that's a joke.

webcams demand you to be presentable

Ateast half of you, lol. Zoom has built in filters that help with this. Also sitting further away from the webcam, using a diffusion filter, and/or just using a really bad webcam can help.

and make your space presentable.

Background blur and virtual backgrounds help here.

Compared to other frontier models, DeepSeek R1 lacks robust guardrails

Oh no, it's easy to make the ai running on my computer do what I want it to do, the horror.

There's some irony that the media has been bleating about it being too censored, now they are complaining it's not censored enough.

I find that phrase is most often used to dismiss those who try to help people in need.

It may be. The ICO issued some long waffling guidelines that clarified exactly nothing about it recently https://ico.org.uk/for-organisations/uk-gdpr-guidance-and-resources/online-tracking/consent-or-pay/about-this-guidance/#law

This is pretty dumb even by trump standards. You would think the right of all people would know that trying to ban terms will just result in new euphemisms and jargon being created.

Most of the research caught up is probably going to be using the terms incidentally (for instance, a drug study that happens to mention participants were AMAB) and this will cause a bunch of paperwork and probably just end up being changed to something like "gametically" or "chromosomally".

If you interpret their sub rule "Posts must be relevant to the open source ideology" in the strictest sense then I guess anything about FUTO is against their rules, since it isn't open source.

Still seems a bit dickish to delete comments like that. ¯⁠\⁠_⁠(⁠ツ⁠)⁠_⁠/⁠¯

I read it as being pronounced something like "flow-marked"
