That won’t mine any if your data in a privacy-invading way so it can be sold…

Of course, it’s 17.99/mo to access the store

“I DECLARE THIS OS ILLEGAL!!!”

We really only need to stop the competing element of it, so if you just do it alone you can go nuts with all the sports activities you want.

If you begin a large change management project in a company, having 20% of the employees think it’s positive before you hardly start is like starting halfway to the finish line.

I’ve had a dumb roomba for 8-9 years too, and I was decently happy with it, but i switched to a new roborock this year…and holy shit, the roomba sucks ass compared to the roborock. It absolutely does not do the job as well, comparatively it hardly does a job at all.

Yes, oxytocin has a remarkable short half life.

Love is not a forever chemical, oxytocin has a half life of something like 5min tops.

No phone it is then…

Yeah no you’re just using the wrong words to describe your issue.

That’s not them bricking it though. Yes it’s shitty build quality, but that is an entirely different issue than them bricking equipment that still is very much functional from a HW perspective.

Oh my fucking god people…I didn’t say you could claim you made something when using AI generated images. I claimed it still makes sense for some things because they hold pretty much no artistic value when made by humans already (like icons, stock images and logos)

No, they’re not, never claimed they did. I said that what comes from it still holds value and is still subject to human approval in the end.

I would honestly argue that the way an artist makes art is also completely irrelevant. The art is only meaningful in the way it’s perceived, how the artist physically makes it is of very little importance. The tools and materials are just a means to an end, it’s the finished product that inspires feelings and thoughts, not the process of how it came to be.

Not really. It’s the equivalent of ordering a “build it yourself” sandwich where you specify type of bread and content, and having someone else make it. Yes you didn’t actually assemble the sandwich yourself, but who cares how that happened, you have the sandwich you wanted, it contains what you wanted, it tastes and looks like you intended.

I’m not arguing that people using AI generated images can call themselves artists, I’m arguing that AI generated can have a useful purpose replacing menial “art” work.

it’s just colors and noise.

But that’s exactly my point; logos, icons, stock images etc. are already nothing but noise meant to just catch the eye…might as well just get it auto-generated.

But you still choose the final result…for something like that, the how is really quite irrelevant, it is just the end result that matters and that still remains in the hands of humans as they’re the ones to settle on the final solution.

In sonarr/radarr you just select hardlinking instead of copy in the appropriate dropdown menu in settings and that’s it. Nothing else needs to be done if they share the same storage.

It’s impressive technology, and I understand that it’s exciting, but it’s not art.

I would add that a lot (most?) graphical elements we encounter in daily lives do not require art or soul in the least. Stock images on web pages, logos, icons etc. are examples of graphical elements that are IMO perfectly fine to use AI image generation for. It’s the menial labour of the artist profession that is now being affected by modern automation much like so many other professions have been before them. All of them resisted so of course artists resist too.

OP is just a troll
