I get the feeling that the band Terra Glitch is actually AI generated music. It's really well done, so I'm not sure, but the fact that all of their albums were released in the last 18 months makes the idea that it is not AI less plausible to me...
They are my new favorite band... I'm just not sure. Maybe very prolific?
If I were on #spotify, I’d cancel my subscription/account immediately.
King Gizzard pulled their music from the platform so Spotify has replaced it with #AI knockoffs of their music. As if paying almost nothing for streaming wasn’t evil enough, they’re now using LLMs trained on stolen content to pay artists nothing at all.

Hey guys, so I got Terraria yesterday and I got terraria access set up and everything, but is there some kind of getting started guide or controls I can find to use? Thanks
I did something exciting this week! I relaunched my company website: futureethics.ai
It says, boldly, that we want to build ethical and sustainable pro-labor businesses that are pro people and the earth. It's scary to put that out in words because I feel like such an optimistic or naive person. But I don't know how else I can be.
I also started a Mastodon server just for work: @index
Over there, I will talk more about work, ideas, ethics, provide updates.
The Old Wooden Barn's Christmas show, part 1, is now open. Join @jmd2000 3 Hours of Country, Bluegrass and Western swing Christmas songs, plus your requests!

#PSA: If someone says they accidentally reported you, it's a scam.
If someone says you need to verify your Mastodon account, it's a scam.
If someone says you need to change the email address on your account, it's a scam.
If someone tries to lure you off-platform to Discord or Telegram, it's a scam.
If someone jumps into your replies or DMs with a mutual aid request, it's a scam.
If someone from mastodon.social sends you an unsolicited DM, it's a scam.

Telltale signs of a scam:
- wants you to move off-site - wants you to change account settings - wants you to click something - unsolicited private interactions - new account - under ~20 followers and over ~5:1 follow ratio - sense of urgency - appeals to your compassion - piggybacks on a trending post or event
Thank you to all the new followers I got in the recent month, my posts are really not that interesting, I mostly complain about the state of tech and how cool tabletop roleplaying games are
Anyone on here also use Bluesky? I signed up back in June but am really just starting to use it regularly. I'm not giving up on Mastodon, but Bluesky is where a lot of news orgs migrated and I miss having those news sources. I should also note that Bluesky has really great hashtag alt text settings, but I have not come across anyone who uses them yet. It makes me wonder why did that catch on over here, and not there? Is there just something about mastodon users that makes them more inclined to care about #Accessibility?
I tried but since there seems not to be a convenient Windows third-party client, I decided to wait. Also want to try Threads, but again, it's web interface I guess.
@menelion If the person allows it, you can follow threads accounts on the fediverse. I use the Threads app on my iPhone, but it's not the greatest. If the posts are text posts, they're fine. If it's a picture post, there is no old text. Nothing even says that it's a picture post, it just seems like a blank post. I am not very impressed with threads.
@menelion Yeah, then you're right you're just looking at a web interface for now. I don't even use Threads or blueSky on my computer. I do it all on the phone. I don't think there are any options for computer use that I know of, and I am a Mac user anyway. Hopefully, someone develops something.
hello how are you doing am new to this social networking site and i will like to make a new friends here and more over i love making new new friends every where
