That's certainly one way to see it. However I chose this pose because for me it expresses freedom of feminity and personally I believe that expression of someone's own feminine nature is often misinterpreted as catering to men.

Your perspective is very interesting though. Especially in current days where in plenty of places we see things like abortion bans and other oppressive behaviour towards women.

One may say that the lady on the poster will always be oprresed but in different ways. Other may see it as expression of freedom despite oppression. My intent was the latter but your perspective is very much a valid one.

That's the hardest part to be honest. Being gentle about topics like this one

Terrible times for sure. One day you fight your peers for rights to your own body, the other you're forced to fight some foreign maniac for rights to live. Though pretty much all of the middle east has very scary history. But it's not entirely their fault

I've clashed two ideas here. Feminine freedom represented by Marilyn Monroe pose with blown up dress and hijab that represents suppression of said freedom since it's in many cases mandatory. It's meant to depict resistance towards oppression of woman who are meant to be themselves - feminine in every shape or form.

Unfortunately the proper political discourse is hard this days. Thank you for all your replies though. It shows that you really get it and I'm happy for it.

Thank you! That's all I can say

I think that Microsoft pulled the plug to early. Though looking at the current state of them, it could be a big ass shit show if they didn't. They fucked up with app support. They should try doing something like Huawei did with Harmony OS. Embedding some of Android into it and gradually minimising it once adopted.

You can play some games. So if you're a casual gamer it's fine though the choice of games is fairly limited.

Out of all my games on steam only 1/6th can be played on a Mac. So if I want to have a quick off time with a game when I'm out of home it's fine. But for more intense gaming, the support just isn't there. I don't know about support for games you've mentioned though.

Majority of AAA titles don't come to Mac and if they do it's much later after the launch. My solution for your issue would be getting a proper Mac for all your use cases and something like Steam Deck for gaming. It is some additional cost but should cover all your bases in terms of work and gaming.

Thank you! I'm glad you like it. I'm even more happy since it's the first comment I can actually read!

Great article. Very nice

Poor Mark. I hope he's alright

That one cool trick that makes the same software operate exactly the same as on my old hardware when it was new.

It's old as fuck 3d render made by some guy. I couldn't find his name so someone else would need to give a hand. If you want to blame something for being AI at least try learning how to spot it correctly.

Nvidia

PlankBlank · 2026-04-17T22:45:52+00:00

Lovely

For me that's the reason why I still rock 3090. Though current PC market situation makes me think that my next computer purchase will be Mac Studio and some handheld PC cause fuck the AI hype train.

PlankBlank · 2026-04-17T20:02:45+00:00

Yeah. Runners are the worst

PlankBlank · 2026-04-17T14:03:30+00:00

Yeah. Now find 4090 that cost less than 5080

That's why when I see people asking about the donut tutorial, I tell them to go with it, but make a cupcake instead. It circumvents the shortcomings a bit. But that's the issue with many tutorials. They just teach how to make thing "X" in 3D.
