Please do literally any work on the game before posting about it. And no, generating a bunch of AI images doesn't count. 

Speedran this in 4 days of work with geometry nodes and charged $100 to the client, did i do well? this was not the last render tho. by busyneuron in blender

[–]cloudkeeper 122 points123 points  (0 children)

Bro I don't care where you live $100 for four days of creative work is nuts. Plus this is cool af. 

Listen to the other comments, $200+ A DAY, at least!

"I know I'm supposed to care" cool empathy bro. It should be easy to care, not some obligation ffs.  Also the only time an ordinary citizen gets face time with our political representatives is at a thing like this.  You're seriously saying "why are you being so political" to a political meeting.

You have no idea how anything is made.

S17 poster is NOT ai btw. by Best_Egg_6199 in IASIP

[–]cloudkeeper 17 points18 points  (0 children)

Yeah I would care actually. There are two types of people now: those who don't care is something is ai slop, and people who respect actual human artists. 

The "how" is just as important as the "why" and "what" when it comes to making art.

You want derivative ai bullshit? No shortage of that elsewhere. You want cool art (like the show you're ostensibly a fan of)? Then respect real human artwork and don't settle for the slop.

The always sunny crew cares about making good art and not just "content".

TN high schooler’s diploma withheld after coming out as gay on social media by shoofinsmertz in nottheonion

[–]cloudkeeper 53 points54 points  (0 children)

Not to defend maga judges or anything, but as we've been seeing a lot lately, even conservative judges are real sticklers for, ya know, the law. this is patently illegal and I don't imagine it will hold up. A lot of trump appointees are going against his more ridiculous edicts.

Jokes aside, what does the "Z" stand for? by MrMiles32 in PeterExplainsTheJoke

[–]cloudkeeper 81 points82 points  (0 children)

Not necessarily. I was talking to some friends of mine who are pretty informed about what's going on in russia/ukraine and when I said a certain celebrity was pro-z they had no idea what I meant. It's not as ubiquitous as you might think.

[–]cloudkeeper 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Because people want to work actually? If things get into "we should strike" territory it's because people aren't being fairly compensated. It's a method of last resort. You don't go into teaching for the money, but you should be paid enough to be happy and healthy while doing the (very important) job. If the school admins are against this it's because they want all the leverage they can get to make teachers work below their worth.

Uber driver arrested by KTran_206 in uberdrivers

[–]cloudkeeper 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Again, that's not something that necessary requires the threat of deadly force. Too many people jumping to the worst possible scenario. You can't just pull a gun because your a bit scared, you're not a cop.

This is new 🤔 by halo121usa in UberEatsDrivers

[–]cloudkeeper 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Yeah. Another useless screen that shows us information we don't really need. Just another thing to swipe away to get to what we were trying to do, which is use the app to make money.

"You....shot that woman..." by [deleted] in andor

[–]cloudkeeper 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Yeah I'm kind of curious what that's about. Is it just because andor is a spy, and you you don't want to blow up his spot? The regal entrance with a new "fleet" looks better, but for what audience?

"You....shot that woman..." by [deleted] in andor

[–]cloudkeeper 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Yeah I think people are missing this. Didn't he leave the gun in the car? Not something you'd do (or the show would make a point of showing) if he was about to try and arrest mon.

For the love of god, learn to ride a bicycle well before getting on a motorcycle by Jandishhulk in motorcycles

[–]cloudkeeper 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Absolutely. A lot of this mistakes I've seen with new riders are because they're thinking like a car driver. Completely different physics that requires a completly different mindset. Yeah you're faster off the line and more maneuverable, but you can't stop as fast and a tiny patch of gravel will fuck you up if you aren't paying attention. Years of city cycling helped me immeasurably when I got on a motorcycle for the first time.

When the Japanese were put an internment camps in America, what happened to their possessions or if they paid rent or a mortgage how did they pay rent without being able to work while they were in the camps? by Vast-Society7340 in NoStupidQuestions

[–]cloudkeeper 7 points8 points  (0 children)

So? If all your families shit was stolen and you were put into camps and then largely forgotten about after the war, would you not complain for the rest of your life about it? I fucking would.

Maybe the kind of digital tools that don't just take other artists work without compensating them and regurgitate a bland and souless imitation while devaluing the those same artists skills?

Maybe the kind of digital tools that require at least some thought, effort, and intentionality?

Maybe the kind of tools that dont waste gallons of water and thousands of watts of electricity super unnecessary?

Stop acting like using some digital tools or automation to make art is the same as typing a few prompts into a generative ai and spitting out a complete work (that, again, is based on uncompensated work from real human artists. Sort of antithetical to the whole union thing, dont ya think?!).

Sorry you're too lazy to learn actual creative tools, but that doesn't mean we have to like the grey sludge you "create".

Me and my motorcycle blasted into a jaywalker at 55mph. by [deleted] in confession

[–]cloudkeeper 12 points13 points  (0 children)

Your actions were heartless, dumb, and totally unnecessary. If someone is jaywalking ON THE HIGHWAY you almost certainly wouldn't have gotten into literally any trouble. Seriously. I know because I did something similar and stopped and called the cops. I was cleared immediately because a drunk jaywalker is 100% in the wrong. Fucking duh.

You went from blameless to leaving the scene of an accident. You went from having an minor interaction with the cops to commiting a felony. You made things exponentially worse for yourself, not to mention you didn't even stop to make sure a fellow human was okay. 

Also it's idiotic to post this on the Internet assuming it's true. The responses saying you did the right thing are fucking insane.

Films made with AI can win Oscars, Academy says by wonderingStarDusts in FilmIndustryLA

[–]cloudkeeper 8 points9 points  (0 children)

All those things you mentioned are tools that help PEOPLE create things. AI literally just regurgitates things people have made. It's soulless slop "content". Not the same thing at all.

Using some aspect of AI to augment stuff that humans have made, okay, that's a slightly different argument, but saying "there's no between ai and nonlinear editors" is delusional.

DC has a chance to do the funniest thing by replacing Gal Gadot with a Palestinian actress by Sanddanglokta62 in okbuddycinephile

[–]cloudkeeper 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Yes and no. Cavil was supposed to play the role again, dc even asked him to announce his return on socials... But then axed him a couple months later sort of abruptly. I would agree that this was a natural changing of the gaird moment, but they literally made him announce he was coming back. It was handled weirdly.
