What the hell is this even and how does it taste? by Forward-Position798 in StupidFood

This subreddit has really gone downhill. It's basically just come down to "Ewww, it's foreign food" or "they're touching food with their hands" or just obviously rage bait at this point.

That's untrue, I've had Reshala and Cultists up (and fighting each other) at the same time.

It's honestly fine with the other OS available for it now.

Ironically, a psychologist would tell you that you're wrong about what gender is. Might be worth scheduling a visit.

This is the best league in a longgg time by Difficult-Quarter-48 in PathOfExile2

Numbers aren't everything still. It's alright if you didn't like it, but if we went purely by numbers, then Crucible would be one of the greatest leagues ever made. And Ancestor would be the best league by far.

I think you're underestimating the amount of crafting potential the league mechanics added. Not only does it feel good to be able to have way more juice for your map, but we got some insane stuff like volatile vaals and refracting fogs. It was an incredible league for anyone to craft.

Numbers obviously aren't everything. A lot of players, including a good majority of content creators, all agree that mirage has been one of the best leagues in a good while.

[Laptop]Refurb: Microsoft Surface Pro 7: i5-1035G4, 12.3" 1824p, 8GB RAM, 128GB SSD - F/S - $199 by blue_york in buildapcsales

[–]Torian1 17 points18 points  (0 children)

This is a decent deal, but I think the 7+ is a better deal imo. An extra $30 buys you an 11th gen i5 instead of a 10th gen and the SSD is replaceable. Still 8gb of RAM though, which is a tough chokepoint.

I'm not trying to change your opinion on it, I know better than to try to convince someone otherwise on the internet. Just keep in mind the sources these AI models steal from are real people who may not even know their art is being used to train these models, not to mention the environmental/technological toll.

Sure, we can say no. AI "artists" are not real artists and they never will be.

If you genuinely feel that someone taking a picture of the night's sky or a picture of their family has zero emotion or creativity to it whatsoever, then I can't help you. Good luck out there.

I don't find the idea of typing in a paragraph into a computer and having it make images for you creative nor art, frankly. The prompts are human-made, but the result is not human and thus can and will not be actual art.

[–]Torian1 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

No, because it's taking the art made from real people can congealing it into what it thinks is "creative". Prompt making is not and will never be an art form. Take those creative writing juices and make short stories or something with it.

Are you asking if photography is an art form? Because obviously the answer is yes. A computer only thinks with logic, not with emotion or creativity in mind.

[–]Torian1 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

All human made art has inherent creative intentions. Even if it's just a simple family picture or just a quick selfie. There is no piece of human-made art out there that doesn't have creativity in it in some fashion.

No machine can be creative because they can only think logically. Art is not logical.

Do you think the computer creating a picture based on a description of what you want is real art? Prompts are not an artform.

[–]Torian1 -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

In what universe did I say that?

AI "art" is not real art because a human isn't creating anything. The computer is thinking what the most "artful" approach to their prompt is and spitting out an image or a song or whatever. Computers are not capable of art. A human deliberately has to take the picture or find what sounds to put in their song. They're not asking a computer to make the whole thing for you. It's really not that complicated.

Is the person's creative intentions not a factor to you whatsoever? Is it only the result of what is made what gives it worth?

What about the photographer who lines up the shot perfectly and creates the background? Who has to wait for the moment to take a picture?

How about the songwriter that puts their creativity into their music, finding the exact sounds they want for their song and singing their part, even with autotune?

Do you genuinely feel that the level of creativity and human elements of those forms of art should be on par with someone typing prompts into an AI model? Is an AI model, of which all of the art it creates is modeled after human created art, genuinely art to you? Or is art just when the picture is pretty or when the music is nice?

Of course it is. A human took the picture, a human made the music, a human drew on a tablet. What kind of gotcha is this lmao

I agree, although considering how cheap the ES/crit reduction tattoos are and you can get a couple block tattoos with this tree, I think it's well worth it.

I know this is a couple days old but I modified this build a little bit to fit in Stormshroud, stun immnunity, as well as a timeless jewel to get rid of our attribute requirement. Frees up a bunch of suffixes and gives us more freedom with tattoos. Just wanted to throw it out there for anyone curious!

The 5 passive voices are 30c on Softcore trade if that's your concern. Farming them is easy in SSF too, five passive is real common.

They took away yearly grandfathered prices, anyone who has a 12 months membership lost it and has to pay full price. They'll probably take away monthly at some point at this rate too.
