• An addendum to Rule 3 regarding fan-translated works of things such as Web Novels has been made. Please see here for details.
  • We've issued a clarification on our policy on AI-generated work.
  • Our mod selection process has completed. Please welcome our new moderators.
  • Due to issues with external spam filters, QQ is currently unable to send any mail to Microsoft E-mail addresses. This includes any account at live.com, hotmail.com or msn.com. Signing up to the forum with one of these addresses will result in your verification E-mail never arriving. For best results, please use a different E-mail provider for your QQ address.
  • For prospective new members, a word of warning: don't use common names like Dennis, Simon, or Kenny if you decide to create an account. Spammers have used them all before you and gotten those names flagged in the anti-spam databases. Your account registration will be rejected because of it.
  • Since it has happened MULTIPLE times now, I want to be very clear about this. You do not get to abandon an account and create a new one. You do not get to pass an account to someone else and create a new one. If you do so anyway, you will be banned for creating sockpuppets.
  • Due to the actions of particularly persistent spammers and trolls, we will be banning disposable email addresses from today onward.
  • The rules regarding NSFW links have been updated. See here for details.

    Potential Rule 8 Question: Regarding the Recent Anti-NSFW Content Bans...

    It's not, it's malicious compliance by the companies. You don't need to have any notification if you don't spy on the users.

    People are using AI but not disclosing it. How do you detect it ?

    There was a case with a monkey and a photograph a while ago that had the monkey found ineligible for copyright.

    People are using AI but not disclosing it. How do you detect it ?

    The company that owns the generator (OpenAI, etc) is responsible for attempts? For all that it'd be hilarious to watch the industry instantly implode as a result, that has far too many problems as a doctrine to ever be applied (imagine being liable as a manufacturer for a kitchen knife being...

    It usually indicates underlying problems, such as rot in the fixture substrate or widening cracks, which makes hammering the fastener back down completely useless. 🙃

    The funny thing is that building a passive composting toilet would probably be easier and more effective in the long term.

    People are using AI but not disclosing it. How do you detect it ?

    Emacs and LibreOffice make those easy to input though, so it's not a reliable sign in itself. edit: If in USA, the court recently said that generated content is not protected. Presumably willful attempt at copyright laundering will still fail because they love copyright.

    Reading through an older thread has made me curious enough, do you happen to remember what the quote was?

    Automatically concatenate posts without intervening users.

    TIL, that's nice to know. It was something I had been wondering about. I think having user options for merge vs warning would work quite well.

    Rule 3 Addendum - Translations of Others' Works

    I didn't perceive it that way (if by steamed you mean angered, if you mean stuck & not really able to continue, then yeah), but in any case yes to just moving on. Strongly considering it.

    Rule 3 Addendum - Translations of Others' Works

    I tire greatly of dancing around Rule 8, I've been attempting to disengage as I cannot engage in the conversation good faith on QQ. It literally derives from royal monopoly laws. That's (and similar cases) where the useful and commonly used meaning of monopoly derives from. That gets a bit...

    Rule 3 Addendum - Translations of Others' Works

    At which point that is the user's decision made. My suggestion doesn't stop the users from being assholes. It just enables them not to be if they don't want to. If they want to, that's a social problem, not a technical or legal problem. And for all of their DRM malware shenanigans, the only...
