    First of all, it’s a jackal girl.

    Second, we wouldn’t need Anubis if it wasn’t for the hoard of scraping bots trying to copy every line of source code they can, to feed into LLM to be ground up and spat out as an attributionless mass of Frankenstein code.

    Would they rather it be a soulless corporate logo? A flat two tone rounded corner letter on a square?

      The issue isn’t even that they copy it once anymore. That would be a one and done thing.

      The biggest problem is that they can’t even be arsed to copy anything but the URL. They save their own resources by feeding only the address and metadata into the training model and then letting it loose to collect the datasets for itself again.

      That means every new model and every slight tweak is an additional crawler that will spamm your server with requests, all because these lunatics are too cheap to buy their own hdds.

      I think we collectively agreed FOSS mascots need to be full furry, preferably drawn by that one artist who did the KDE mascots

      yep. this is like somebody putting a giant retro reflective wall in front of their house because the person across from them idles their vehicle with blinding LED headlights every morning for 10 minutes pointed straight in the living room
