don't subject them to computer vision processing because that often involves binarization

@drq what if there is someone underaged (means - under 18, legally on site, over 16). and payments online are only 18+ . what to do then ? 😁

@KimCrayton1 it's also interesting how severe their fear is of anyone having more than one quality or identity. As a queer person I relate to how racial and ethnic identity should also be a complex spectrum treated with respect and even wonder (first Black woman and first Indian-American at once!!), but white conservatives hate that more than anything as they try to binary-fy us all.

@KimCrayton1 if only there was a honky meter.

@KimCrayton1 Very well said. The only questions I've ever gotten about what kind of "white" I am have been casual curiosity, not an assessment of my value, my right to be in a place or do a thing. I feel that privilege. #racism

With the quote in the alt text for any who can't read it (my instance limits text too much to just put the text in the toot):

@drq
Peertube is a good project for a strong community.
Now we can use something like the Piped project.
Deploy to our own servers.

@drq in this form, it's a definition problem more than anything.

An alternative isn't just *to* something, it's *in* (or is it *for*? I dunno) solving a specific problem also. And YouTube's list of problems it solves is, as is appropriate for its size, uniquely large.

So there probably isn't going to be just one alternative, but many, for different purposes. Probably with some empty spots where no solution exists, and some empty spots where the problem isn't worth solving.

More from Mike Monteiro:

Don't work with anybody you're afraid to say "no" to.

@drq TBH, I like light themes with high contrast. Browsers should really provide a user‐facing option to toggle that without changing setting of your OS (like they already do for light/dark switching). CSS already has enough to read that data.

@vkc I used to develop backup software and file systems for a living and I endorse this message!

@vkc yeah but duct tape

@vkc Yes

@SmudgeTheInsultCat Brilliant.

@SmudgeTheInsultCat Also if you're just unlucky, you get to go to jail, directly, without passing go and without collecting 200. For no reason at all.

@Chia подтверждаю. Летом вообще сконцентрироваться ни на чем не возможно, хочется гулять и развлекаться, а не вот это все.
