Is it common for Japanese URLs to use non-Latin text like that? I rarely end up on Japanese websites, but I feel like I’ve always seen romaji domains when I’ve ended up there.

You can’t prove there isn’t!
“Oh yeah, are you sure about that? Then why does my AirTag say it’s already landed on Jupiter, hmm? I’d like to speak to your manager.”
No wrongdoing was found!
On surface level, sure. But the consequences of this drama will be seen across the industry. Google and Amazon both appear to have worked to have kept this quiet, which raises a lot of important questions about how the business of video streaming will handle child safety.
Even though it may seem like drama, there’s an important story here, and it directly involves the futures of some key players in the tech sector so it’s relevant.
I’m 100% certain that if he actually didn’t know the kid’s age beforehand, that he would have said so in one of his responses. If the situation was anything other than what everybody is already suspecting, he would have put it out there instead of letting the internet speculate wildly. He wouldn’t just be sitting on that little nugget of information if it existed. He was too specific in his responses to have left that out unintentionally.
Yeah, and there’s a much different context. Those aren’t real children on the show. Those text threads are with adults on both ends. The entire interaction from start to finish is mitigated by professionals.
We’re talking about a situation involving a real child, not a sting operation where there isn’t an actual victim. There’s a real child whose identity would be put at risk of being exposed by releasing the logs.
This isn’t primetime TV drama. This is a real situation involving a real minor. You should take a step back from the screen for a minute if you’re struggling to see the difference.
The amount of people eager to see a sexting thread with a child is fucking absurd.
It holds up about as much as those “Not responsible for broken windshields” stickers on the back of dump trucks. Which is to say: not at all.
Video source for those who don’t feel like clicking around.
They don’t go into detail, but I’d be real interested to see a breakdown of how this was made. It looks almost entirely like actual Sora output, with the exception of Geoffrey and the TRU logo, which I think are comped-in renders. But the rest of it all looks like genuine AI output, all the way down to a bit of R’lyehian text in a few places.
It’s honestly a little scary how good this looks. Granted, this was made by a professional media team who understand how these tools work and know how to use them better than anyone else, so of course it’s going to be good. But it won’t be long at all before this becomes the baseline.
And instead mentions Bluesky, which I wouldn’t even really classify as part of the Fediverse. Sure, it’s federated, but it’s pretty much just federated with its own self, and isn’t accessible from any part of the Fediverse at large.
I did. Because it was free with another service I’m already paying for.
Lack of voice chat, message history, media hosting, screen sharing, or just about any other feature most people actually want these days. The people who want a live, purely text-only service are a stark minority anymore.
Yeah, I would genuinely use one for the virtual screen capabilities to do my normal Salesforce-and-Slack job, if not for the price.
Technically, nothing we ever see is in real-time.
How often do you find that happens?
Only if you federate with those instances. You could defed from them, and Mastodon could make up 0% of your Fediverse.
What’s wrong with just blocking/defederating from what you don’t want to see in your feed?
Defederating/blocking doesn’t stop Meta from datamining you.
