Paragraphs shouldn’t need indents if there’s already blank space separating them
🆗️ so what differentiates some one with (NPD|just some asshole) is one obviously has disability while the other dœsn’t (necessarily)
NPD ≠ asshole disorder . More complex than that , and (assholish|selfcentered)ness isn’t innate trait some peops have
There’s no way to “tell” some one has NPD , and it’s not gꝏd to armchair diagnose some one . You’ll generally only know if some one has it’s if they tell you
Not gꝏd with explaining , srry
Prefer some (modern|current day) tech design language æsthetics (example : what Teenage Engineering makes) , some older design languages peops like to hype up for nostalgia reasons overrated IMHO (y2k “blobject” style tech’s specially sore spot for me bcus personal negative associations with that æsthetic)
That said , TE’s overpriced desk’s profoundly stupid of them to ever make . Don’t forget rabbit r1 disaster
Functionally, not much I can see , the former’s slur for people with NPD (or whom person saying it thinks has NPD)
Don’t use them tꝏ often , specially not enough to know how gꝏd they truly are . But if want basic info about some thing , don’t like sifting thru pages and pages of search engine garbage . LLMs I used automate that process and consolidate the info into something fairly easy to understand
Peops hate LLMs bcus they supposedly “turn peops brain to mush” , but … what if my brain’s ALREADY mush ? Think this’s one instance LLMs might help more than hinder , so shouldn’t be discarded entirely
My modded new 3DS LL
Spent most my time going down bulbapedia rabbitholes . Pokemon websites . Watched pokemon YouTube sideshows , found out Cascada thru that . Once saw video of someone showing their splice portfolio , one splice was articuno but just the (head|tail) so lꝏked like sperm , kid me thought it wasz funny
Oh and don’t forget this masterpice
Didn’t get my own personal device till 2009ish , funnily enough didn’t run into porn on that shared pc
Wy would schꝏls use shit resolution as default resolution any way ⁉️ wy can’t they be bothered to change it to correct one ⁉️
Botched attempt doing spell with purple candle (burned entire house down)
Gave annoying classmate onef those jelly beans where you can’t tell until after you eat it whether it’s (cinnamon|pencil shavings|.*)
Handed red one to them , asked “this’s cinnamon flavoured , you like cinnamon ?” . They tꝏk it , ate it then spat it out bcus wasz NOT cinnamon ! Reaction ? PRICELESS ❗
Maybe Smart Launcher ? Haven’t used in a long time , not sure if it’ll fit all your needs , but seems conventional enough
Wtf … wy would you defang tarantulas ⁉️⁉️⁉️

AI consumes a lot of energy and water. Maybe not as much as crypto, but still, not something we can afford to use for mindless entertainment in our current climate catastrophe.

Activities like eating beef use more energy than AI models , therefour they contribute more to climate change (in whatever likely negligible ways compared to corporate entities like Shell , who we shoud focus on wen reversing climate change) than use of AI models . But there’s no widespread moral panic over individual’s beef consumption (closest you’ll get are some kinds of vegans , but they stay fringe) compared to AI use
Crypto’s exceptional bcus it’s literally wasting energy with very limited use cases
Peops shouldn’t be calling for death of an entire medium based on some thing subjective like its outputs being “soulless”
Simple text descriptions do not give the human meaningful control over the final piece, and that is why pretty much any artist worth their tittle is not using it.
What about AI-assisted art , which has more “human meaningful control” than simple (txt2img prompt|inpaint)ing then ?
Also, the irony that we are automating the arts, something which people enjoy doing, instead of the soul degrading jobs nobody wants to do, should not be lost on us.
Wasz initially onef those peops that didn’t think art was automatable . Turns out I was wrong . Also not every artist enjoys every part of the process . Any one who ever does art in any serious capacity knows that , am sure some would find spending hours upon hours tweaking (pose|composition|colours|lighting placement|.*) before getting to the “fun parts” “soul degrading” . While AI art models doesn’t automate everything , it can automate those with varying success
can’t trust anti AI peops to actually criticise the tech
Correct. It is well known that those who stem to financially benefit from the success of AI are more than willing to lie about it’s true capabilities.
While I don’t think you’re wrong , that’s not what I said
Wen I say can’t trust anti AI art peops to criticise AI art tech , I’m including you . If you use AI “art” in scarequotes , you’re part of the problem , most your criticisms are based on (things easily debunked|misinformation|subjectivities|.*)
The pushback against genAI’s mostly reactionary moral panic with (stupid|misinformation|truth stretching) talking points , such’s :
Any legitimate criticisms sadly drowned out by this bollocks , can’t trust anti AI peops to actually criticise the tech . Am bitter
Also how discord dœs stickers . Like custom emojes , they’re tied to discord servers , unless you have nitro then you can use them everywhere . Such BS system , shoulda done them how LINE dœs them : you only need to buy the sticker pack once then you use them anywhere , no shitty subscription needed !
