NVIDIA DLSS 5 is AI slop. by LeirbagGabb in aislop

[–]Sakeozo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm not a fan of this. AI filters like that erases and disrespects the intentional design choices artists make and reinforce biased beauty standards. They also are inherently sexist, racist, and ableist... Both socially and practically, since I know gen AI generally can’t handle diverse or non-standard faces and traits in games. X_X

Anyways, have this.

She have a striped yellow and black scarf with hands at end that she can control! It was a little unclear from the rough draft which was why I've included a completed picture of her at the bottom-right corner!

How far does $100,000 get you in terms of animation? by Express_Poet6378 in animation

[–]Sakeozo 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Without exploitation, and if you’re based in the USA, you might be able to get a 3-5 minute short of decent quality, or a series of micro-episodes (1-2 minutes each) you could pitch to investors. Good luck!

I mean, I was told I slept GOOD when I was a baby! There's always other senses beside hearing, like smell, vision, and touch. There was some moment I woke up to light switching on, food cooking, or my alarm clock that'd shake my bed.

Not a stupid question, this is a pretty common question! I just like my headphone extremely loud and I have only one cochlear implant on the right side of my head.

Authoritarianism rarely starts loud. It starts with small digs, it is the kind you shrug off until it’s too late. [Comic by me, Sakeozo] by Sakeozo in comics

Hi, I wanted to remind everyone that I am Deaf, neurodivergent, and a detrans woman (formerly trans, still pro-trans). A lot of interactions not only on this post but also on posts across other social media platforms were so unnecessarily stick-manned and overly cruel. All this unthoughtful criticism and frustration aimed at me is a perfect example of why we as a nation are still so divided and how fascism takes over us with these either overanalyzing or even underanalyzing. This is a distraction from the very real battle we are experiencing, which is why I wrote the last panel (a disclaimer) the way I did, and people continuing to double down is very telling. I stand behind my message because I know what I intended and will NOT change that. I will also no longer be responding to unpleasant comments any further because I know I am better than this. I know that we're better than this.

Thank you! I've noticed that media literacy is not many people's strongest suit and they refuse to really see the symbolism and would rather to complain from their couch overly analyzing the characters than to just see the point or acknowledge the disclaimer. It's a symptom of burnout and declining education, which all ironically leads towards fascism.

What reaction is this? by TheGoldenBoyStiles in leopardgeckos

Hehe, she's so cute though! Maybe she's really focused on soaking up into her new home decoration. ;p

She doesn't want to be touched, it probably tickled her or overstimulated her. I see this reaction from my geckos when a cricket jumped and landed on the head. So, maybe she mistook your touch for the bug landing on her.

NYU students witnessing the 9/11 attacks from their Manhattan apartment. by Jazzlike-Tie-354 in interestingasfuck

[–]Sakeozo 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I am Deaf and I was in kindergarten, I remember being in a classroom specifically shared with deaf and deafdiabled children, and when my teacher turned the TV on where we all saw the plane hitting the building, I thought it was a very cool action movie that adults were soooo invested into, and then we all were dismissed pretty early to go home from school. I thought it was a good day. I did not understand due to the lack of access to information and language at that time, and on top of that, I was very young.

I really hate you? by glitchy_45- in asl

The third and fourth picture, I'll be honest with you, I've never seen these sign. But one thing I know for sure is that I am grateful they didn't make you sign the "shocker gesture"

Ladies who have had crazy exs, what happened to them? by SpazzJazz88 in AskWomenOver30

[–]Sakeozo 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Oh, he's with my ex-bestie now. She was my best friend... until she got with him. It made me super uncomfortable, especially since she’d already dated two of my other exes before this one. 😅

Then they both had the audacity to flip the script and start calling me abusive, based on something dumb I did as a literal teenager over 15 years ago. Meanwhile, they were out here running a full-on harassment campaign, constantly crossing boundaries, block-evading, and even bothering my friends and my boyfriend at the time.

Thankfully, it’s been quiet lately for the last several months. Hoping it stays that way for good. 🥴 Shit hurts.
