bad vibes

Seriously, I cannot say I've ever seen a "I fixed your art" person succeed at it. It only seems that they failed to understand the intent and function of the art they are trying to "fix," and can't separate their own intent and tastes from true fundamentals of art.

What is the obsession with calling food or recipes "better than sex"? I tried your Pinterest risotto, Sharon, and frankly I am wondering if your needs are being met.

please DO NOT EVER EVER EVER listen to those "how to make an OC that people will like" or "fixing someone's art" avoid them like the plague, be yourself and have fun there will always be an audience for your character even if it's really small (but is yours and you do whatever you want)

To put it more quickly, the proper response to "It's Biology 101" is "Welcome to Biology 102."

There is no need to call me out like this.

"The level of effort is so low that we consider it spam" is a great rule to have against AI content

If you read Everett True comics, you realize people have been assholes in the exact same way for a century and change, and people have wanted to wallop them for it that entire time.

BREAKING 🚨: SpaceX #$SPCX has now lost more than $1 Trillion in market cap since hitting a valuation of $3 Trillion last week 📉📉

PLEASE HELP MY FRIEND!!!!

I was immensely happy when I was playing the Stellaris Nomads DLC and this song started playing in the background: www.youtube.com/watch?v=5iVF...

This was a solved problem 25 years ago! Put some goggles on your biggest titted friend and take a black and white photo of her in a construction site for gods sake. When did everybody become helpless

“Let’s?”

The problem with straight men is that they think that being straight and being a man is all that is to be required for a woman's attention, and are outraged that they have to meet any further criteria. Meanwhile, they don't allow women this same forbearance.

I remember my brothers and I saving for a whole year for $2000 to buy a PowerMac, and that was back in the mid-to-late 90s when $2000 was worth a lot more than it is now. Just occurred to me randomly. Not related to any current events or anything.

Clean your air if you can, friends en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Corsi%E...

The intentionality behind storyboarding is so metatextual there's really next to no chance it's actually going to succeed at doing this. AI can only emulate surface level aesthetic, it will have no idea why a shot is framed from below or whatever. It will just make shit up

I think I have found a way to articulate why I don't like sex scenes in stories or a lot of porn in general. Nothing ruins your appatite for a hamburger like seeing one being digested.

some very good seth rogen lore here

"Digitally handmade" is a useful, vital distinction. Collage work of existing images, authored in an image-editing platform (and done within the bounds of fair use) is the actual remix culture. Typing "make me an image in the style of this creator" into a generator trained on unlicensed art is theft

If anyone is tempting the idea that Google selling out entirely to AI is a sign of the future, I got two words for you: "Google Plus." Y'all remember Google Plus? Remember how aggressively Google tried to get people to use it that it became a joke? Not around anymore, is it?

Another dimension to add is that using slop is at its core a demand for attention. People who are pro-slop frequently whine about how it is unfair that they have to compete for attention with people who have the nerve to be good at what they do.

Why does it bother me when a manager or the CEO of my employer boasts about using Copilot to write their emails? This. This is why

Well, Alan Greenspan is dead. In other news, holy shit, Alan Greenspan was still alive?

important ‼️

This op-ed is an important read.

And right after Epic announced introducing slop coding into UE6 development...interesting...

My team worked with Sjoerd closely. Him leaving is some “pulling out the bottom jenga block” kind of shit. He was working on some very important stuff.

My mood has improved dramatically since I started making twice what I made at my previous job. I still have the "forever" sad but a combination of not having to hustle for the next gig and being able to stay busy is keeping the darkness away.

VOLITION - You got up from this floor because of a holy vow you made sixteen years ago. With *me*. To wake up exactly 07:30 every morning until the day you die.

Found that someone generated a "music video" for Zager and Evan's "In The Year 2525" and you generally have to have a billion dollars before you can miss the point of work of media that hard.

"death of the audience" is genuinely unironically good advice for anyone who wants to make anything

Man, when even Jake fucking Paul is dunking on you...

That's enough Death of the Author. It's time for Death of the Audience. Start running fools

Another reason I hate AI is that now I can't seem overly eager OR use dashes in comments bc I run the risk of being accused of engaging with the artificial demon by idiots

once again, furries got to the correct answer before anyone else figured out the question

Thomas House of Dublin exhibiting the pro-human solidarity that all of us should demonstrate.

IF YOU SEE THIS CLOSE THE TAB IMMEDIATELY this is a trick to install malware on your machine. it is not a real captcha system.

this is a trick to get you to copy paste some arbitrary commands into your command line. just in case you dont recognize the shortcuts. dont do this lol

So I got this half right. Not telling you which half.

Thinking about how this post got all the sloppers shaking their head at me. And then it was revealed that Bsky was DDoSing itself with its slop code. Sloppers never stop eating shit.

I know endings are hard to do, but... ...come on... Did you have to go with the first draft of the script?
