I think it would be difficult to tag based on context since often we can't know a character's personality, story, beliefs, identity, etc... just what we can see. At least most of the time.

In this case, the terms 'andromorph' and 'gynomorph' literally translates to 'male form' and 'female form', and I believe that it is referring to the physical sex instead of gender, especially since 'form' in this case is alludes to the physical representation of the character.

What I'm trying to say is that the terms 'andro' and 'gyno' refer in this case to the physical sex and are translated as 'male' and 'female'. In this sense it would make sense to use [M*] and [F*] since the original [M] and [F] tags are also related to physical sex instead of gender, since the gender of a character can't be determined by just the character's physical traits. A character with breasts and a vagina might very well be the fursona of a trans male furry and he feels it better represents him because it's closer to his physical appearance.

Wait a second....

Please stand by....

Okay, I think I got it.

Here's the definition for the term 'prime' used in mathematics:

"In mathematics, the prime is generally used to generate more variable names for similar things without resorting to subscripts, with x′ generally meaning something related to (or derived from) x. For example, if a point is represented by the Cartesian coordinates (x, y), then that point rotated, translated or reflected might be represented as (x′, y′). "

Thus the most respectful way of tagging andromorphs and gynomorphs could be [M′] and [F′], since it does indicate that an element such as a function in mathematics is derivated, differentiated but by no means does it indicate that it's inferior in any way. Technically the prime character ′ is it's own character but I think that using apostrophes will suffice.

I would still like to campaign for [G'], [S'] and [L'] because I think it's a way simplify tags when there's 3+ characters. Most of the time when you browse yiff what matters to you is the orientation of the characters / scene, instead of the amount of characters by counting the number of Ms and Fs.

Thus, how about this:

• [M], [F], [M'], [F'], [I], [A] for solo pictures
• [M/F], [M/M], [M/F'], etc... for two characters The above categories probably encompass the vast majority of yiff and they're easy to understand. Then we relegate group tags such as [G], [L], [S], [G'], [L'], [S'], [Bi], [Bi'] ONLY for pictures with 3+ characters as an optional representation that can save you from having to write many letters and making searching and filtering easier. (G-L-S-Bi notation would change from being discouraged for pictures with just two characters where two letters can give us full precision at a minor extra cost of a single letter and from now on only encouraged for pictures with 3+ characters)

In this case I realize that some precision is lost, but pictures with 3+ characters aren't the majority, it's optional and it could be tidier in many circumstances where you care about the orientation.

I think we might be getting close to having a solution? What do you think?

That amount of stress when you rush a deadline isn't humane for sure.

Is that the extended version of strip poker? Where if you lose a hand you need to put on a bondage element until you end up like that on the table?

I would say "a lot". Granted I don't have too many irl friends, but I think it does matter to me that I can be myself among trusted friends and I feel it helps if they're furries as well.

Woah. I can't say no to this invitation

One step towards avoiding misuse is to stop considering porn to be misuse.

Update: I'll create a poll in a few days with the options that have been mentioned in this post.

This is glorious.

Yes, please! They've been waiting for a name since June!

Yeeff? Yinna ?

Thank you for doing this, can I ask what's the difference between a FOSAI model and other llama2 model that people are creating?

Not that instance, but Lemmy is missing a lot of moderation and federation tools. Right now you only have sledgehammers to deal with tiny nails, in regards to tooling.

I'm planning on bringing a spare phone only on my trips to the US.

Apologies, but what is NCMEC? I'll have a look to see what we can implement.

Yes, good observation. I'm sure she's safe and it's a windy day.

Anchee lovely as always <3

Actually you weren't wrong. If you're a Lemmy.world user your images are stored at Lemmy.world

I recently build a PC and this is what I learned:

1. Modern CPUs get crazy hot. AIO water cooling could make sense depending on what CPU you use
2. GPUs are expensive but higher end GPUs will make the build last longer. Nvidia is a must for anything related to AI.
3. NVME storage is a no brainer option for a new build
4. Make sure the motherboard supports the RAM or doesn't throttle it
5. If you have the space a larger case will be better for cooling an upgrades. GPUs get crazy large.

Overall go to pcpartpicker and look at what people have build with your choice of GPU / CPU.

Well, I'd say there's a time for everything. Images are absolutely amazing, but a well written story can make me cum buckets, especially because it's able to sustain arousal for minutes or even hours depending on length.

Hello! Apologies for not seeing this earlier.

In case anyone's wondering my position on this matter, it's this:

• There is 0.00% chance that yiffit.net or packmates.org will implement any sort of ID verification system. I'd rather host the site in any other different jurisdiction than to jeopardize the privacy of our users or contribute to a version of the internet that's riddled with surveillance nightmares.

In the worst case scenario the site would even change owners (if my physical jurisdiction played a role in the matter) or I'd find any other way. This is not something I'm worried about since we have no shareholders, no need to be profitable in any way, and don't report to anyone but to ourselves.

Furthermore, if the internet continues going down such a path and there is a legal way to help people circumvent draconian restrictions by offering services such as a VPN, I would definitely look into hosting such a service. If there's anything I'm afraid of, it's the amount of time and effort I know I'm capable of recklessly sinking into privacy-oriented projects just to spite anti-queer, authoritarian and surveillance-state political initiatives :P

So, rest assured that Yiffit and Packmates will not make such ID a verification ever a requirement and I'd even encourage you to find ways to avoid any sites that make such requirements.

PS. We're now hosted in Germany by the way!
