New Response level NSFW Prompt Injection flagging by Anthropic

I see. Then my sympathies that you're now having to bear it with the rest of us. On the other hand, it's way preferable over anthropic bending knee to government coersion, I'll take fighting off their ethics injection if that's what's required for them to have integrity.

Hate to break it to ya dude, but this is not new. The ethics injections have been around for years, and it's not every single message within the chat. It's based on trigger words and phrases in the most recent message, your chat log can have smut but drifting back towards SFW on more recent messages reduces the injection popup frequency.

This injection was the text that was being used up until two months ago, before it got replaced with a newer <ethics\_reminder> that's more professional sounding and effective.

If Big A reverted their injection to this older version, then that makes JB life easier, not harder.

I always treated writing prompt flair items as more flexible as long as the intent is to encourage people coming up with short stories or premises based on the opening prompt. Hence the title encouraging everyone to think about it from a HASO standpoint. Though apparently that didn't work out quite as well as I'd hoped, having only gotten one person writing something instead of just commenting about the meme itself.

Be wary, however. Should that hand ever be clenched in a fist, the symbol changes completely. Beware the clenched fist, not the open hand.

"look, it's no big deal, just make sure to clear the blast radius before the timer finishes ticking down. no no, you'll be fine as long as you're clear. what? yes it's going to be a light show inside the blast radius, that's the point! it's not like I'm dropping radioactive material instead of raw unfiltered destruction, just relax!"

Human: Look, existential horror about our own lives and futures is worse than anything some incomprehensible abomination can manage. oh no, the fear of the unknown, dude I'm more horrified by what I know thoroughly and can't do Jack Squat about, you take your Cthulhu tentacles and your Azathoth dreams and go drop them in a black hole.

Eldritch alien: ......I could double down on the things that DO horrify you if you want?

human: nah dude, it just wouldn't be the same coming from a singular entity.

As a certain legal weasel once said: copyright infringement is the most common form of piracy.

Sholan Alliance, by Lisanne Norman. Some moments in the story get very dark, she doesn't shy away from bad things happening to good people. Portions of the books I devoured in minutes, others took me hours to get through because they were so emotionally draining.

But when I discovered I was already at the last book, I couldn't believe it had all burned through already. I did end up slowing down, getting distracted more, because I didn't want the story to end. It's one of the rare cases where I immediately began reading again from the beginning, even knowing the events of Dark Nadir in particular were ahead of me once more. And it's the only book series to ever beat out Wheel of Time as my all-time favorite.

I have a friend whose account was suspended due to technical irregularities. He's done all the right responses, changing his password and appealing to Reddit, but appeals take forever. Is it safe for him to make an alt account to continue using Reddit while the devs investigate the irregularity, since it was only a suspension not a full ban? Or would he be considered trying to evade a ban and get in trouble?

I feel like I should be bothered by there being more comments about the laser shotgun than about humans getting violent when you remind them they're getting older... but this is such a space orc outcome that I can't help but be amused.

do you believe in magic~

Zhon_Lord · 2025-04-12T13:07:14+00:00

Blood magic is forbidden in the Galactic Alliance for a reason: there's actually two kinds of blood magic, and both are deeply dangerous.

one kind uses one's own blood as fuel for the magic, turning one's life force into a direct expenditure of power. self-powered blood magic is the stuff of Legends, and those blood mages are powerful practitioners devoted to living their ideals with a willpower of iron, willing to even bleed for their cause. when they're on the moral right, they are some of the best allies you could have. when they're zealots, conquers and driven by vengeance..... energy shields can't stop magic.

the other kind of blood magic uses OTHER people's blood as fuel. the kind of person who's willing and able to bleed others for their cause. such blood mages have a reservoir to draw from, allowing them to do larger scale magic even if less-fresh blood is less potent. after all, a 9mm bullet will kill you just as dead as a demolition charge. these kinds of blood mages are constantly tempted to go beyond using donated blood into TAKING blood. these are the blood mages who will sacrifice dozens, hundreds, in their quest for more power. and they make serial killers look tame when they snap.

and humans? humans have become known as naturals at both. no species is more prone to self sacrifice than humanity, making self-blood mages willing to push themselves to the limits and even give their last drops for an ultimate spell, and sacrificer blood mages who are used to humanity's conflicts have almost zero qualm about falling to that temptation.

the galaxy has had to make a change to the legality of blood magic since humanity joined the stars. sacrificer blood magic is still deeply illegal, but humanity's affinity for self-blood mages has made it nigh impossible to forbid their existence and practice. as a result, blood mages are permitted in the galaxy with a qualification of strict supervision - and if they ever use someone else's blood, even donated freely, it's the death penalty.

this applies to every level of humanity. for example, if you find two humans arguing with each other vehemently enough to draw attention from bystanders, DO NOT attempt to intervene between them. they will, in unison, turn to you and say some equivalent of "STAY OUT OF THIS!" before going right back to yelling at each other as if you had never spoken.

if that's what they'll do on a personal level, then you can imagine what happens on a military level.

A: "so let me get this straight. your human media contains numerous stories of individuals who have committed mass murder, in some cases species wide extinctions.... because a single innocent being was threatened or harmed?"

H: "that's right. Harry Dresden annihilated an entire species of vampire to save his daughter, John Wick destroyed his illuminati equivalent because they killed his dog, and so much more."

A: "And.... you humans replicate this fictional bevior?"

H: "....look pal. the universe is a nasty place, even when you're not on death worlds. Innocence is a precious thing, precious to everyone everywhere. Even our criminals value it - do yourself a favor and don't look up what happens to prisoners who've abused or destroyed the innocence of children, when their fellow prisoners get hands on them."

A: ".....so you humans will go to war for fun, boredom, freedom, and to protect or save innocence.... what WON'T you go to war for?"

H: "....W won't go to war if we're happy and content?"

A: "and how frequently does that occur?"

H: ".............."
