I like to think there's kobolds living unmolested somewhere but they tend to get their assess kicked in every universe

A very wild mass guess/conspiracy theory:
What if the Nintendo lawsuit against Palworld (and just about every other lawfare action they've taken lately, as it's not just palworld. They've been going on a lawfare rampage) is really just an embezzlement scheme by some Nintendo exec or legal team rep to try to distract Nintendo with as much shit as possible in order to steal as much cash as they could out from under them?

barren sierra
#

I wholeheartedly support this action

night plume

puts that conspiracy theory in my hat to add to the briefcase later

honestly fair, dont want kids buying explicit games

especially with the parental controls on family share being decent

small berry
#

How do they make em physically possible to be a flying beast?

teal iron
#

Hydrogen

#

Dual purpose gas

small berry
#

The hydrogen storage can help make it float somehow?

teal iron
#

Makes it lighter

#

Easier to generate the necessary lift

small berry
#

but there's a whole meat thing around it

#

the dragon is just massive

#

unless it's scaled to a butterfly

heady light
#

it would be explosive tho

small berry
#

explosive and dragon are synonyms, I can accept that lore

#

a critical shot for a dragon would imply half of it implodes, I think that's good

heady light
#

they just gonna use the hydrogen for fire breath with the oxygen in the air?

small berry
#

afaik the igniglandula or whatnot mixes it beforehand

peak folio
#

The link teases many species.

#

If you pledge $800 you can commission your own species to be included.

heady light
#

hmmm, how are they separating the hydrogen from the air?

or are they using some kind of electrolysis to break water into hydrogen and oxygen?

small berry
heady light
small berry
#

Do we have a hydrogen flamethrower patent anywhere?

#

that would give the explanation I guess

heady light
#

well we have used hydrogen rocket engines

#

we usually have a separate tank for the oxygen

small berry
#

I see your point

#

If the hydrogen storage has the perfect mix of ogyxen then its not pure enough then it doesnt make the dragon any lighter

heady light
#

tho you can just use electrolysis to split water, collect the combined gas, and burn that

indigo kite
#

Goodnight everyone

heady light
#

also wouldnt make much fire if its light enough to affect how light the dragon is

small berry
#

That's mostly what intrigues me the most

#

if it's scientific which scientific way of making it "fliable" did they go with

#

All of the scales and whatnot can be similar to carbon fiber, I accept that

#

still needs a way to fly

#

are the bones made of some magical thing?

#

last I checked it was a pretty big challenge to make a scientifically accurate dragon

heady light
#

also it messes me up that dragons are hexapodal vertebrates

peak folio

they look to have a bird/bat style wings with bones in ot, so how do the muscles attach to the sternum past the arms?

And yeah, I can't figure out what killed the red cherry shrimp. He was one of the hatchlings from my previous shrimp, so wasn't old age. The tank hasn't had a spike in ammonia, nitratee, or nitrites, so he didn't die from that x.x it just looks like an untimely death which I personally don't believe. Ever since I put the new shrimp in, the plants are having issues, so I think I introduced something with the water from the petstore. The algae also went crazier after the new shrimp.

There isn't really anything good about it at all. All it does is nuke ads and allow you to play music with the app closed (you can do this with Soundcloud and it's much cheaper). YT Premium is advertised as a "way to support content creators and their content." But as far as I can tell, most of these content creators are pursuing sponsorships, merch, or other business ventures. I'm in the belief that if YT premium actually performed as advertised and gave a boost in pay to said content creators, then I highly doubt there would be a plague of sponsorships. As far as I'm concerned, it only exists to make more money for YT and its shareholders (people I do not care about)

Yes, Premium views grant "more money"... but not enough people use it for it to matter lmao. It's another subscription service in a sea of subscription services, and as someone with bills to pay and a house to take care of, I like keeping extra money aside in case of emergencies.

Issues I was having: person listened to explicit music, Discord pulled random pron or the album art was THAT explicit. When I went to answer a PM I got, it puts me on the private message window and shows me this art. I want Discord to give me the ability to disable this banner bc they proved they aren't going to moderate what they put there.
Instead, Discord acknowledged it was their error and told me to get screenshots when it happens again and they will ban the user so it doesn't happen again.

discord doesnt have any sort of control over what is depicted there in album covers, thats just material sent by spotify as rich presence, it would be up to you to report it on spotifys end; if that was even a real thing since its creative freedom and the borders are blurry at best

If you smash the face of someone you don't like at school and you're happy about it and people are concerned, it's not cause you're not normal, it's cause your brain hasn't even reached the point to doubt its own reasons

if you can't even doubt your actions when you've clearly not thought things through and you double down your entire life, you get Asmongold

which can bring success

TLDR; if you're impulsive beyond the degree in which you sometimes say, shit, I might be dumb as heck, I should slow down with what I'm doing, you can become successful

You know, I really wanted to throw the ball to that kids face, but I know I'm dumb so I think that wouldn't go as I'm thinking is how a normal person thinks, that's what I'll give Asmon

I don’t want to sound negative, but considering that AI-generated art is often free, incredibly well-made, can adapt to specific styles based on the input, and is produced so quickly, it could further impact the already limited opportunities for professional artists.

People might not like it and they might boycott when they see a company that has a horde of haters say something about them using AI to replace artists.

But it's what every company worth their salt is doing

There's no saving artists that can't work with AI

there's gonna be AI artists and there's gonna be the weird offshoot that still draws everything on their own and people are interested in them cause of that

you will not need to know how to draw to be an artist, you'll just need to code

@TopherStoll This is a bit disingenuous to feature my comment here. I have been very consistent in my language thoughout this thing. I never thought it was entirely AI output. I know you can draw.

@arvalis Look man, you are coming down REALLY HARD, and bringing almost 200,000 people with you. My DMs and mentions and email are a nightmare rn.
I see where you are coming from, but under the circumstances, I don't feel bad for screencapping your words and sharing them in my defense.

@TopherStoll Wtf, arvalis of all ppl too?

I really like some of his work but this just stings to see him say something like that. It will leave a sour taste almost indefinitely.

Not to mention, I found out about you from a shared tweet he'd done a long time ago.

Same here. I had to cut off my Instagram as a portfolio because of Meta AI just helping themselves to everyone's posts

arvalis is the fellow who made Mason back out, so that sucks.

Another problem with AI is some artists saying it's wrong for one medium but acceptable in others. You can't say "stop AI from stealing our work" but then cry when that includes making AI music

While there's unfortunately alotta friendly fire going on as Kyran is showing, we're just gonna keep human made art going and dunk on AI when we can

#

we've done it alot so far, we can keep going as long as possible until this hype dies down, just like NFTs did

AI in any creative format (photography, music, art, etc.) should be completely banned

Use it for help with little stuff to help your art piece not use it to make said art piece

Because that's what is being addressed here

AI should be a tool, as in optional to use

@full mountain it need to be a helper not the maker

No, not at all. I just enjoy sharing my perspectives and seeing where I might be wrong so I can grow as a person. I have no hard feelings towards any of you—only towards caos, but for reasons unrelated to this

@lucid coral yeah? I wasnt saying their the same I just brought it up

But this, like NFTs, is being done maliciously and with intent to monopolize the income

gleaming tangle

But NFTs was done soo well XD

"Why pay for talent when you can pay us to create infinite talent" type vibe

Yes and no NFTs are still walking a fine line of oblivion with copyright

They got twarted, so it's only a matter of time before AI starts getting dragged around in the dirt

NFTs are not going away, next time bitcoin pumps they will get visibility again

and probably something else will pop

NFTs and AI generation is extremely bad for the environment for one, unreasonably expensive for two, and a luxury that has little use outside of its niche field

# olive seal I see that you are mad, breathe bro. I’m not worth getting mad over . I was just...

LMAO i am faaaaar from mad, i'm feelin' pretty jovial in fact. i'm just genuienly curious as to what your purpose for getting in this discussion is. Me and Nerzul are still chill even if we disagree on this topic. If anything i think you still feel some type of way considering you're again bringing up someone no-one else mentioned that you had a spat with in the past and can't seem to gget outta your mind, perhaps you gotta deal with that first before you come after me, friend
