It all depends on what you're going to post about and who is going to read it of course, but, again very briefly: You're trying to make some sort of statement by intentionally choosing an ambiguous, somewhat loaded trigger word and you're bound to find out in an unpleasant way that there are cliques of people who have assumed (or are trying to assume) discursive power of that sort of vocabulary and these people are not pleasant to interact with and not beneath bullying tactics.
You might or might not encounter them, but you're definitely running the risk, if you step onto their turf.

This. Very briefly: At this point, don't even try to play the game, don't try to adopt the vocabulary, don't attempt to traverse the intersectionality maze. It's hegemonic discourse.
For bio purposes, "Born and raised in Germany, now living in France" or something similar will steer clear of any of those issue. You can throw in as much or as little additional detail in there as you like, too (like, for example, "podunk Germany" and "suburban France", or whatever reflects your situation).

And ofc you can abliterate models yourself, the original tool is https://github.com/p-e-w/heretic (and it has 2.8K forks, probably some interesting stuff in there, too).

People are using abliterated ("heretic") LLMs on consumer hardware for ghastly roleplaying sessions quite successfully, I'm pretty certain you can get pretty close with one of those and a comprehensive system prompt (recent open weight models have quite impressive context windows so you can throw in a really big one without squeezing the space for the actual chat too much).
If you wanted to get really ambitious you could try to finetune one of those (llama.cpp ships some tooling for this) with a dataset curated on pertinent internet forums (if the dataset is too large to just throw to the base model via RAG). At the very least, you could teach the abliterated, refusal-free (or almost refusal-free) brand new refusals, where the model would simply brickwall you (like a hardcore online chud would).
Abliterated Chinese vintage models are probably the best base for such an experiment, they come with somewhat less baggage from the get-go, even before abliteration.

Random tech-tip post because I'm so happy I remembered this:
```Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00

"Attributes"=dword:00000002```
to unhide the Processor performance boost mode item in the Windows Power Plan settings. Windows does not have an exact equivalent of Linux's CPUFreq CPU governors, but with these options, you can get pretty close to them. The available settings are ordered from most convervative (effectively disables the use of Beyond-TDP-boosting features of CPUs completely) to most aggressive (boost for as much and as long as possible).
I didn't need to deal with this kind of stuff (and Windows) for so long, I managed to forget about the existence of this setting (and that you need to unhide it by setting a registry value for easy point-and-click configuration via power plans).
NB the name of my power plan is not a political statement, you might as well call it "super-green" or w/e.

Interesting foray here from Kagi.
It sounds pretty good on first sight, but:
- I'm somewhat skeptical of the accuracy of those attribution percentages
- And more importantly, everyone knows by now that (corporate) publishers actually LOVE contracts and deals and HATE fair, non-discriminatory compensation (because that means that only popular - i.e. useful, interesting, funny, well-made content makes money). And, to corpo publishers, that is small business indie loser shit. Big publishers want to sell slop en masse and earn ten times the competitive market rate for it, with the sweetheart deal guaranteed in eternity by law if possible.
Still cool if Kagi ever gets this to a point where websites can get some revenue share. However - revenue share of what exactly? Kagi's subscriptions? That's not going to be a lot. Is someone secretly thinking of ads again?

Step 2: Let an LLM describe the picture
```This is a photograph taken from a high vantage point, looking down at a rooftop and the surrounding area. The main subject is a sloped, tiled roof with a brown and reddish hue. The tiles appear aged and are covered in patches of what looks like moss, lichen, or dirt, especially along the ridges and in various spots across the surface. A tall antenna is mounted on the roof, featuring a satellite dish and what appears to be a traditional aerial antenna on top.
In the background, there are numerous green trees, forming a dense line that separates the rooftops from the sky. The sky itself is a soft, pale color, suggesting either dawn or dusk. To the left of the main roof, another house is visible, with a brown tiled roof and a small section of a white wall with a window.
Below the main roof, there is a small, flat area, possibly a courtyard or a lower section of the building. This area has a concrete or paved surface and contains what looks like a few small puddles of water, reflecting the sky. A window with a protective grate is visible on the wall of the building below the roof. A leafy branch of a tree is prominent in the lower-left corner, partially obscuring the view of the courtyard and the neighboring house.```

Sometimes you find these pure, concentrated examples for how Reddit is this monstrous, psychic torture dungeon that anyone can just wander into for free and then skydive down the most horrific rabbit holes, supercharge every personal malignant neurosis imaginable in the way down and then collectively roll around in your own misery like a pig in shit.
No knocking on ace folks intended, the fact that this one comes from that subreddit is pure coincidence.

Anyway, to my original point of the site/project having jumped the shark, if their criteria, whatever they may be, end up with "Concord" and "Street Uni X" receiving the same tag, the tagging is at best marginally useful.

Bullshit. Look at the game's Steam store page. There's nothing that peddles any of this stuff as a selling point. Sloppy guilt-by-association is a bullying tactic and benefits nobody. It's a smear.

Yes, but the game does not transport DEI "ideology".
The dev simply hustled money out of these guys because they look the part to get it and it should be celebrated. If they had somehow managed to hustle money out of a neonazi-affiliated "impact fund" instead, the polar opposite of the DEI-detected guys would be pointing fingers.
At a game about grinding unicycles on rails in PS1 graphics.

It's jumped the shark already.
It currently lists a retro-style THPS-but-unicycle game (Street Uni X) because the single developer (who self-describes as non-binary) received money from a non-profit that funds video game studios with 50% or more employees of "an underrepresented identity group".
The anti-DEI activists connect this non-profit back to GamerGate 1.0 through certain key personnel, so it becomes a "DEI consultancy", so the game received "DEI consultancy" funding, so it gets the DEI detected rubber stamp.
Same guilt-by-association BS that they (correctly) get mad about when the DEI people pull it.
