It worked on my box!

So that sounds exceptionally awful. You have any more info on that?

… why are they always so goddamn hot.

To be fair a certain security company was in global news for exactly that same send it behavior. Why waste precious resources on multiple instances? Investors hate waste. 😅

One piece digitally drawn in an hour or two maybe. Otherwise it is likely premade, generated, or not their source. Yeah- if you are talking backgrounds for a phone they could be more abstract or start with a base but for 45 bucks? That buys you an hour or two of that artists time- three if they like the idea or you.

If you know an artist doing commissions that cheap they are depressed, desperate, or want to fuck you.

Nah it’d be cheaper to commission the artist for a dozen or so pictures for 45 bucks:

First you need to blow some ungodly amount of money on breaking the time/space barrier… Then travel back to the 1920s and find a starving artist. Then pitch him 45 bucks for some art. Easy! 45 bucks to them is like 800 of our today dollars.

Sarcasm aside- it seems people really are disconnected on how much a commission or art costs. Sure you can buy prints reasonably priced but any commission that isn’t a speedy doodle is going to clock in a helluva lot higher.

This. They provide outstanding insights and the articles they provide alongside the data are quite good.

Yes that would be why caddyshack was over the top and funny.

I dunno the video seems to be of a groundskeeper just doing his normal rounds.

Tech Jesus does not fuck around. Jokes aside- it’s a good channel.

It’s a new ai with 2 extra layers to double check the previous prompts! Who could have possibly foreseen this advance in the field?!

disclaimer: I have 0 idea how many layers they used but I am reasonably certain they just voltron’d that shit.

“Oh yeah, already did man! And not to toot my own horn (again) but I gotta say…”

Based on the general reception to your comments it would appear you need to work on your delivery, eh?

There’s a time and a place for it. This isn’t it. Further: are you really going to try walking the failing argument back as an attempt to shitpost? My guy, the hole is deep enough already.

Lashing out like you are is unbecoming and honestly is a bad look. If you can’t handle criticism I suggest you stop injecting yourself into topics you are ill equipped to discuss.

I believe I made a position clear to you elsewhere. While reading through the thread I couldn’t help but be amused at your statement here clearly complaining about something you yourself are doing - and advocating for.

Thus: pot meet kettle.

You are welcome to group me with whomever you like. It doesn’t change the statement.

…but it really cracks me up when people get up in arms about this subject they barely understand and arrive at…

Pot: meet kettle.

Show me a study that shows any human or animal benefits in anyway from drinking bleach.

There are plenty of papers out there which have supported incorrect and dangerous claims. I trust you are capable of getting the parallel I was drawing without derailing the conversation.

However, there does exist a spectrum of studies both supporting and attacking…

Yes this is how scientific academia works. It is also constantly flooded with bad science and bad faith research from focus groups pushing agendas. Let’s perhaps allow research to fully mature before committing to forcing your life choice on another organism, yeah?

From my understanding there was a nuanced discussion including risks and acknowledging that whole food diets are impossible for cats.

Nuanced discussion is most certainly not what that thread, nor this one are littered with.

Either people are reacting with emotion far more than I expected, or people are confusing whole food plant based with “no meat products in it”, which of course are two entirely different sets of food.

Nobody is telling a vegan they cannot adhere their diet to their choice. The reason people are reacting is because vegans are pushing their life choice onto an animal they willingly adopted knowing it’s dietary needs: simply because it makes them feel better. That is assanine and absolutely should be concerning to anyone.
