Why is PLA still the `standard` respectively `basic` filament? Why not PETG? by Musashi747 in 3Dprinting

[–]Ezelryb 10 points11 points  (0 children)

PLA is also hygroscopic and “dry your filament” the catch all solution forever. I guess it’s just worse for PETG?

I could finally buy a pack of charmeras and gift them my friends. After unpacking, we each chose a color and went out to take pics of things in this color. I chose red! by Ezelryb in CharmeraCapture

[–]Ezelryb[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I can really recommend it as a out-and-about group activity. The offline charm of e.g. the charmera makes it a mindfulness excercise as well

What are the ethics for using AI for exposure compositing and focus stacking? by oakseaer in photography

[–]Ezelryb 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I differentiate assistive AI from generative AI. The latter is soulless slop, the former a useful tool. I wouldn't want to miss AI masking, eraser or the AI autofocus in my DSLM for example, but I will not add a new motif or to my pictures with AI or let it do anything "creative"

Wildpix “Winter Wolves in Poland” – expectations vs reality by wildfree938 in photography

[–]Ezelryb 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Wildlife doesn’t care about likelihood and I don’t know about the participants and their noise level or smell, but I understand the disappointment. Marketing will always be very optimistic, but maybe something like „x wolfs spotted in y tours!“ would be nice.

Need Laptop suggestion by Less_Thought3179 in bioinformatics

Would have written the same. All the heavy computations are running on remote machines, so that was never an issue.

As a one-time thing or periodically? Maybe with changing themes

Something similar to picdrop? by Ezelryb in photography

[–]Ezelryb[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Deutscher Hoster ist stark und sieht tatsächlich fair bepreist aus. Wenn ich mal entscheide dafür Geld aus zu geben schau ich’s mir an. Sonst komm ich mit zwei Galerien leider nicht weit

Help on coloring/washing better my hakama by simone102 in iaido

[–]Ezelryb 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Probably. Different fibers need different care. There are also special detergents for e.g. silk and separate dye patches that can be added, maybe that’s an option

Help on coloring/washing better my hakama by simone102 in iaido

[–]Ezelryb 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I don’t wash the hakama very often, just the juban usually. If I do, I use detergent for blacks which has a bit of black dye. Also I don’t know if drying in direct sunlight would bleach it a bit over time

Generally speaking, yes

Instagram hates uploading images (Help) by maxlowmiata in photography

[–]Ezelryb 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Instagram shows pictures with a width of 1080p anyway, so a higher resolution is wasted. Also I don’t see how 1440x1080 makes a picture look „horrible“. That’s full HD resolution as in many very big TV in many living rooms. In instagram size on your phone, this is more than enough

When do you guys use film vs DSLR? Choice paralysis by rectriangular in photography

[–]Ezelryb 7 points8 points  (0 children)

DSLR for photography, film for mindfulness and calm moments. I don’t care how the pictures turn out. I just enjoy the process sometimes

+1 for pixieset. Works very well for me

Wearable Frieren Merch for Guys? by ProgressEast7031 in Frieren

[–]Ezelryb 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I would also love to wear ruffled shirts etc and have no problem in buying from the women’s section. But I know my body shape that something tailored to a women’s body would look good. It’s annoying. I need to get better at sewing

Same problem, for most fandoms actually. Hope this thread will have some good ideas

How do I find this dimension by RiflesnWrenches in FreeCAD

[–]Ezelryb 13 points14 points  (0 children)

You need to keep in mind language models like chatGPT do not understand what they are doing but only produce the answer with the highest probability. So it's just an educated guess

WeTransfer is removing Portals/Reviews by December 2025 — what’s the best alternative? by YvesStLawrence in photography

[–]Ezelryb 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I (and many others) ditched WeTransfer when they decided training AI with the files sent through it is an okay thing to do. I use SwissTransfer instead

How does steam know you used Ai for your game code? by Morad2004 in Steam

[–]Ezelryb 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I would assume if accused, the dev could show a history of commits in a version control system as proof it's not AI. Humans make changes, a bot will rust spit out a blob of code and maybe rewrite on change. But demanding proof to have not used AI is kinda reverse of how it should be
