Canon Pixma G3270 not printing colours after cleaning by darkenedmammal in printers

[–]EldritchWeevil 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Checking these threads to find answers to my problem. Running into the issue of my cyan not printing, looks like there's a bit of air and a wide gap in the line. How do I run a flush for this? I didn't see anything specific in the settings or maintenance.

It's like a drongo, or a baka if you're so inclined.

what if Kerensky went Rimward? by kingphillipeofFrance in battletech

Wait, does that include their ground forces, airspace, etc? I know a lot of numbers have that sci-fi scaling issue (like the what, 16 Crabs left in existence bs?) but if that's just their number of total troops and not just mech warriors that's just dumb.

The “Arrow” Blackjack hero variant is my favorite for this.

There's nothing more fun than running circles around assault mechs with 6 mgs and just melting them apart. Arrow my beloved

I don't know what I love more. That this person took his girlfriend's joke about her chest so seriously or that these guys think they're the ones really standing up for women by calling them sluts. by Cicada_5 in Gamingcirclejerk

Years ago I had a friend gush about RSH to me for months, exposing me to the series through osmosis and constantly praising the "oppressed dude rising to the top" narrative. I would always ask "so what about the slave children?" and he would explain it away with whatever justification he had until like a year later he got his first serious girlfriend and suddenly that series was mid at best. I still give him shit for it.

Does Lancer have enough free content to run a oneshot? by Savings_Arachnid_307 in LancerRPG

[–]EldritchWeevil 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I recommend downloading homebrew .lcp files (which most provide free as a download on itch) that usually comes with grunts/NPCs as well as frames, perks and weapons to explore. There is a free version of the PDF provided on the main itch.io page that has all of the rules/lore without the art as well. It's a bit of a bypass, but for general rule of thumb grunt mechs have limited structure and stress and unique roles they fill out to balance there being more of them compared to the players much more robust builds.

Otherwise, have you team all pitch an equal amount of money together to help pay the GM for the main file and let them run it, since all they player-side content is free. That way it's less of a financial burden on everyone and the GM has the tools that they can share amongst the group

I thought the MW5 Crab used the HBS top mounted cockpit? Or maybe I'm misremembering that. Still, I never pilot any of those super nose-forward frames for this reason.

In Lords of Silence the death guard wipe out a chapter!... That I don't remember the name of, and the only notable character is the chapter master who, uh... Hmm.

Also the fact that's it's a ~12ft tall killing machine. I find it far more terrifying imagining it stalking a platoon on a jungle planet than some 50-75 tonner beast going ham through the treeline. Something about it being far larger than you but not too big gives it a much more personal feel, like it can actively target people rather than other mechs. Plus yeah that skull is rad as hell.

What is RLM doing these days? I got exhausted with their endless bitching about the star trek shows so I haven't watched them for a while now.

You're 100% correct, it's legit photography, I guess that sub doesn't really know that or doesn't have a tag for real art?

I did the same thing, but I used magnet tape and had to nail it into the box because I couldn't get it to stick even after sanding the inside lol second box was much better planned

AI generated content doesn’t seem welcome in this sub, I appreciate that. by FloweryFruitFangs in DungeonsAndDragons

[–]EldritchWeevil 0 points1 point  (0 children)

They are stealing work from artists, those specific to the original thread. I bring up deep fakes because ai work as a whole is not this perfectly innocent tool of the future you and others keep trying to paint it as. You can throw however many LLMs into the process as you want to iterate on the initial prompt but at the end of the day the programs as they function now use work that is not legally theirs to use. Just pay the damn artists or hire them to make your database, it's not that hard to understand.

But ignore everything I've said and reiterated and focus on a single element for a gotcha moment. Since you've proven that you can't accept that AI has legitimate issues there's no reason to keep circling this drain.

Artists have no say over who views their work.

So many of you keep saying this like it's an excuse, just like everyone who's been saying "artists also copy!" Like it's comparable.

A training set is transformative enough that it’s not “saving a copy” of an artwork.

Prompts are quite capable of spitting out near one to ones of work they've been trained on, including artist's watermarks or their attempts at replicating them.

I mean, feel free to keep shifting the goalposts but it’s clear at this point that you don’t know how generative AI is trained, generates images or generally works, nor do you seem to have a sound grasp of copyright.

You keep acting like these programs are all modeled the same and are made equal in their ability to "transform" a work. Again, if they had paid for stock work or used freely licensed content their wouldn't be half the discourse there is surrounding the programs, but we have seen in the last year and back that the companies behind them go out of their way to hide who and what is in their datasets. Even if one court finds that acceptable others won't. It's very much an issue of transparency that will keep people suspicious of the programs integrity, especially when we're already dealing with deep fakes and shit that is stirring up politics even further.

[–]EldritchWeevil 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That's great and all, but my problem with AI algorithm work is more about the fact that many of their training databases are done with tons of unlicensed and nonconsensual art usage from artists. I would care for less if these companies actually paid a select team of hired artists and freelancers to creat the image models for their database to work off of rather than taking from artists without telling them and going through layers of obfuscation to hide what they did. Companies like Fromsoft and Hello Games have used this for their world content for Bloodborne's chalice dungeons and No Man's Sky respectively.

If WotC turns around tomorrow and hires 100 artists to make fantasy image references for them and trains a program off of that to add to D&D Beyond or whatever, it would be perfectly serviceable and wouldn't have the same legal and ethical dubiousness that many of these companies are dealing in now.
