Just the fact that the defendant would KNOW it’s a fake or altered photo would give their attorney ample motivation to spend the time to prove it’s fake.  Which isn’t that hard especially when you know it’s a fake. 

They seriously think “And for exhibit A we have this single digital image from an unknown camera, taken by an unknown person, stored on an unkown drive and received by the plaintiff through unknown means.” is going to fly in court.

Like these are the first questions forensics is going to try to answer. 

Who took the photo?
What camera did they use?
Where was the photo stored?
How was the photo acquired by the plaintiff/defendant?

There is a reason you never see photoshopped pictures in court cases. This stuff is incredibly easy to sniff out.

depending on how paranoid you are, it's possible that there's an undetectable embedded watermark in the image itself that only google knows how to read, should it ever become relevant for law enforcement etc.

if you knew it was there it would defeat the purpose, because then you could do various things to the image to try to ruin it (cropping, rotating, re-saving at a different quality level, img2img in a different AI program)

Since Resetera is so sympathetic to ongoing genocides, I wonder how many pages their thread about the Uyghur genocide is up to?

https://www.abc.net.au/news/2024-08-23/china-uyghur-policies-xinjiang-atrocity-crime-report-finds/104242378

Quote:The Chinese government has imposed 4.4 million years of cumulative imprisonment on ethnic Uyghurs in its far-western Xinjiang region, a new report has found.

The report, titled Uyghur Race as the Enemy and published by the Yale Macmillan Center's Genocide Studies Program, finds high rates of incarceration are part of "racialised atrocity crimes" occurring in China against Muslim minorities.

It demands urgent action from governments to prevent genocide and ensure "the Uyghurs' ability to continue existing as a people".

In June 2019, a Xinjiang court sentenced Zahire Memet to 15 years' imprisonment for "wearing long clothes, covering her face, and wearing a hijab" between May 2010 and May 2015, against the advice of the village officials.

"In another case that we looked at, they said 'this person is financing terrorism' basically [because] they bought a ring for their son in Türkiye," Ms Asat said.

"In another case, they sent tuition fees to their kids who were studying overseas."

Having connections to Uyghurs abroad, including in Australia, has commonly been cited as a factor for being targeted by Chinese authorities for imprisonment.

The report's cumulative sentencing of 4.4 million years figure was based on available data about prosecutions, which showed the average prison sentence handed to Uyghurs in the region was 8.8 years.

Xinjiang legal authorities reported that between 2017 and 2021, a total of 540,826 individuals were prosecuted in the region.

"That makes China, especially the Uyghur region, basically the highest incarceration rate in the entire world," Ms Asat said.

Xinjiang authorities have since stopped publishing this court data, meaning these were in fact conservative figures, she said.

Earlier this year, Human Rights Watch reported that Chinese authorities had changed the names of some 630 villages, to remove cultural or religious references, in an effort to erase Uyghur culture.

Mosques across China have been demolished or altered, including the removal of minarets, as part of authorities' drive to "Sinicise Islam".

The UN Special Rapporteur on contemporary forms of slavery concluded in 2022 that forced labour among Uyghur, Kazakh and other ethnic minorities in sectors such as agriculture and manufacturing had occurred in Xinjiang.

What? No thread?

Since the plight of the Palestinian people is so close to the hearts of Resetera's activist set, I would have thought they would be more inclined to take up the cause of another group of oppressed Muslim brothers.

I honestly think the reason why ResetEra is so afraid of AI photography is because, just like they fall for fake stories and tweets and always jump to conclusions without ever waiting 5 seconds for even one fact to slip out, they are the exact type of people who will fall for a fake image every single time: dumb, gullible, stupid and somehow getting through life with one retarded brain cell.

If the "genuine survival of our country" hinges on 1% of votes, if this shift will "legitimately destroy it", then it's far too late.

It is not a smart choice...unless their choice is to throw away their vote.

A 3rd party candidate will never win the presidency, because this country has not fostered the conditions for that to ever happen. Nor have any of the major 3rd parties fostered a local presence to facilitate that eventual reality. The Greens, Libertarians, Working Families Party...in most regions go dormant until it's time to run for President. That will never win.

If the US, including 3rd parties, were at all interested in busting the US 2-party chokehold, then there's a lot of local, gritty, thankless hard work they could be doing.

They're not doing it.
This is what's so infuriating about their ignorance, it's so aggressive and chastising. Third parties HAVE to run for President because ballot status is determined by it. One of the many hurdles that the main two parties have established to prevent them from being viable.

You can't, because this isn't evidence of anything. This isn't remotely how courts work.

They're just so ignorant about everything, do zero thinking and totally proud of it.

Meanwhile, they actually want people convicted for such things without any defense possible.

I'm a bit late but....

It is because of Naiad's post two days ago, where the gender-obsessed narcisist who malds daily over sexy female characters had called attention to the very existence of this website, that I signed up here. So great job Naiad, in calling attention to this website (because you couldn't stand the idea of someone criticizing your aggressive whining), you've got at least one other person to inquire more about not only your heaping loads of bullshit, but everyone else who's in your little gossip clique.

Anyhoo, I'm completely new here (hi all), so I don't know how or what this place is like. But I gotta say, when I heard that it's a site shitting on the absolute insanity that are ResetEra regulars and moderators, I just couldn't resist. I've been wanting to provide my own commentary for that shithole for a long time. I mean everyone knows ResetEra is insane, of course, but I've found that there's almost no real discussion towards the specifics. ResetEraInAction gets barely any traction whatsoever, and ReseteraTakes 2.0 closed up shop about two years ago.

So, nice to be here. I frequently lurk the "why women criticize thread" because it's just a massive pile of cringe. Nearly every single post on that thread is just massive amounts of cringe. Wouldn't even know where to begin.
