Let’s play a game of “Fortunately, Unfortunately“. Respond the previous post (the first comment below this post) by replying this post (not the previous post!)

I’ll start with: “I found this website.“

Good news: I have a debit card now

Bad news: I can’t put my card on my Google account (to test that I can use it) because I don’t know what to put on the address field

Good news: The forums is back

Bad news: assets.scratch.mit.edu/get_image is possibly in the filter

EDIT: They removed the mobile view as well :(

do you know it took me time to recover this from ScratchDB

I’m struggling to make a bank account because the tool that it uses to register one always rejects my face

I want to implement @imgru (since I namesniped it) but I’m struggling to find a way to host it

It needs to be able to handle TensorFlow or PyTorch including periodic training (not much, a single epoch would be plenty)

None of the cloud-based hosting servers I know could probably handle them. The VMs probably doesn’t have enough RAM to even load the model, let alone train them

Self hosting was an option, but it hasn’t since last year

Licensing

tl;dr: Know who owns what.

As per the Scratch TOU, [project name] is licensed under CC-BY-SA 2.0. However, some media attached here, either from the main project or the additions from the remix may not be eligible by this license.

Copyright on Scratch is a bit of a rocky landscape by Scratchers (the users of Scratch), mainly because the demographic Scratch is designed for. Enforcement is at best minimal, with only one or two takedowns done so far in the entire history of Scratch.

There's this paranoia among Scratchers that their projects may be taken down for some copyright reason, observing on more popular sites like YouTube and Twitch who with the help of authoritarian music companies strikes their media who may infringe ones copyright. It doesn't help that copyright literacy on Scratch is considerably minimal.

While this project may infringe one, the risk of a takedown is practically insignificant. It's simply not worth ones time to take a project down for what seems like a website for children. However, while the risk is small, it's not none. This is important to take notice; it is possible for someone to take a legal action on your project.

WARNING: This is not a legal advice, nor a creation of an attorney-client relationship. You should always ask a copyright lawyer.

I’ve used App Inventor for so long now that I wished Scratch had some SFX when a block is attached, detached or removed

I’ve successfully set up my PC for hibernation

Now I can resume my work in case the inevitable power outage happens and my laptop’s now depleted battery dies

What’s with websites like YouTube and Discord giving extra metadata to links recently?

It’s very annoying since I have to remove it every time I share a link
