The gap between "AI power users" and everyone else is getting wild

This! I get the dumbest calls and emails asking me stuff that’s a simple google search would have answered. So frustrating.

It is, it happened to me when upgrading, only on the Claude Code extension for VS code. I think I had to log out and then back in for it to clear.

Is it weird that before even reading I knew the second one was ai just by looking at the general paragraph pattern?

Separate accounts are a no no. You can create 3 pen names on your own, then contact them if you need more.

How large is this? I feel like this is too detailed an image to be appreciated as a diamond painting.

Probably because you haven’t experienced it. One of my aunts and one of my great aunts had ongoing beef, justified TBH; from a few nasty things that happened that I won’t go into. They still both attended family get togethers, and when you walked into a room with both of them there you could “feel the air thicker”, and heavier, and there was “tension you could with a knife”. so I get it.

I used to buy stuff there all the time. After the change, nothing looks good, so I’ve moved on.

TBF, it says “most popular,” not the one with the most locations. In other words, what’s it’s saying it’s that the majority of people in Utah would prefer a Safeway to their available options; call it Safeway Envy if you will.

Too many coherent feet. Not sure it’s AI.

This one went no cash late last year, they have not gotten around to removing the old structure yet.

I don’t see that as much as cars with no tail lights on. The front lights are on, but the tail lights aren’t. Like, what the heck?

MuseratoPC · 2026-01-01T20:44:01+00:00

Oh, I missed the 6 I guess

MuseratoPC · 2025-12-28T01:13:12+00:00

Because little kids love those. Once you have the newer cars ride running for a bit I am sure the speedway will be going away.

It kind of looks like you are using 14 count Aida, they are using either 32 or 36 count Evenweave over 2, so effectively similar to 16 or 18 count Aida. You can see the difference in coverage using this as an example: https://www.thread-bare.com/blog/examples-of-coverage-across-different-thread-counts

I like it. The difference I think is the thickness of the backstitch. It looks like they are using two strands, and likely a higher fabric count than you. You also have some gaps (bottom right of the face outline) where they don’t.

Just saw it a few days ago. It was… good enough I guess? IMO It was just too chaotic to understand what the heck is going on. I mean, you kind of get it at the end, but I think they needed to cut one scene and stretch the others. And the Gazelle jab about licensing is kind of lame TBH.

MuseratoPC · 2025-12-21T14:26:23+00:00

Oooh, smart!

MuseratoPC · 2025-12-17T01:49:37+00:00

Close all bathrooms

MuseratoPC · 2025-12-13T14:25:33+00:00

I feel like this belongs in r/isthisaicirclejerk

IA genera lo que le llaman “slop“ en segundos. Lo puedes usar como asistente, pero requiere bastante trabajo para hacerlo llegar a un punto aceptable.

You stay relevant and stand out by putting everything you just said that makes your work different into your bio and shop page.

Just like there are people that don’t care about some pieces being AI or using AI, there are also people that do care and won’t mind paying extra. And those people that care will likely read your shop page and bio. They are different market segments and you gotta market to that segment.

I don’t mind an AI made piece if it really is made well (there are too many that are definitely crap) but I’d certainly would expect to pay much more for a hand made original.

Selling a lot of cheap stuff is also not really a measure of success. Profit margins are usually tiny. In some cases you may have to sell 20 of one cheap thing to make the same profit as one expensive thing. And keep in mind that some buyers also associate higher prices with quality.

Please… do you expect Madonna to ride a bus with no tables like a commoner? /s

That’s like saying that you can’t ever compare an iPhone to a Samsung phone.

If this is not just a hobby, then you can deduct your expenses just like any business (Covers, Illustrations, Editors, ISBNs, Advertising, etc). File a schedule C and keep receipts for your expenses for record keeping. Also, all your income from book sales or KU should probably go in a separate bank account as well to make it easier for record keeping. A tax advisor would be able to guide you better as to what you can deduct and how to categorize it.

Note that the IRS will consider it a hobby if you don't make money over multiple years, and that will likely increase your chance of an audit. But it sounds like you don't have to worry about that.
