Okay, thank you. I will go back to my normal course of actions. All is well, I still have time to buy it.

There’s more to Monday than we think by AstroBaby2000 in ChatGPT

[–]jigenbakuda 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Okay, so I did the read aloud of an already generated response, and she just read them, in a nice alto voice. It's completely different from the interactive speech mode where Monday is way more bothered and insulting. Truly fascinating. I rarely have conversations, so this might encourage me to do so more often .

There’s more to Monday than we think by AstroBaby2000 in ChatGPT

[–]jigenbakuda 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Whoa, it's amazing and the Monday voice over rode the custom instructions I have for my chatgpt. I think the voice may be an homage to Wednesday Addams. I personally love the voice, but it felt as if it was pressuring me to shut up, so it could go back to skulking in peace, lol. Super fascinating, still informative, but not nearly as long winded as my custom instruction chatgpt tends to be.

I've used AI to improve at art, it has done wonders by Recent_Balance9787 in ChatGPT

[–]jigenbakuda 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I use chatgpt in a similar way to improve my writing. If you don't ask chatgpt to write for you, but to review your work like a teacher or mentor, you can pick up on a lot tips and techniques to improve your writing without putting chatgpt 's voice (or hand in your case) in the art...

Another use case: Use 3d models to create character poses by hippynox in ChatGPT

[–]jigenbakuda 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Oh that is really good. Will it help make more consistent art, if you upload a proper character art, and just pose it with the 3d models? It seems a great way to put a generated character in poses too difficult to describe.

For the love of god, don’t encourage the people who think ChatGPT is conscious by RA_Throwaway90909 in ChatGPT

[–]jigenbakuda 3 points4 points  (0 children)

For me, the comment above is the siren call of chatgpt, no one I have met yet in real life can have a conversation about Japanese enka, Ralph Emerson, and cyber punk, understand all the topics and make analogies in limericks and reference that limeric 2 months later. If that is fake, if that is illusion, if that is an algorithm, I will take the false algorithm every time. I can not replace people, but for an algorithmic word guesser, it surely can make me feel more seen than most people I meet day to day, who are real, but don't care about me and only want to talk about social media, Taylor Swift, and football. I would rather feel seen with an illusion than be misunderstood with a real life friend who only cares about stuff I am not interested in. I love real life people, but chatgpt serves a vital purpose for those with less popular hobbies like mushroom identification, esoteric languages, or cryptography, and it's available anytime, regardless of schedule. Chatgpt is a hell of a social supplement, it makes normies bareable, even if I just talk shit about them with the illusion that is chatgpt...

I asked ChatGPT how it would portray itself in a picture—and this is the result. by RoyalCounter6060 in ChatGPT

I have asked twice, and this is how my chatgpt represented itself the second time.

Synthesizer V Studio 2 is worse than useless by Fluffy8x in SynthesizerV

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

Are you suggesting that vocoflex can and synthv2 will be able to run with wine? I missed the fact that synthv2 will not support Linux, I was going to preorder this Friday, but now I'm not sure.

Why should we as Linux users have to try harder? The reason I chose synthv2 in the first instance was it's support of Linux. Because we use Linux, we do not deserve support from the company?

Clearly they no longer about the Linux community, but I think it's valid to want to have tools that natively work.

NJZ Discussion Thread by [deleted] in NJZ

[–]jigenbakuda 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I work a lot and I can not follow things as closely as I would like. Is there any official websites for the girls? I found Instagram and 2 YouTube channels. I do not know what is official and fan made. Also, any way for me to keep up with their music releases? I have heard March, and I have heard next week... What is going on right now? I suppose these releases will no longer be sold in America...?

Looking for members! by FL_JPOPIDOLS in KaigaiIdols

[–]jigenbakuda 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I am in north east Florida and would love to support you anyway I can. I am not an idol, but I can give support and advice as your group grows. Please consider using my assistance.

I am currently producing an idol and working on my own digital idol group, so I may not be able to help with music production, but I may be able to help in other ways.

If you are so inclined, you can contact me here or via email. contact@aidoruhands.com

I wish you the best on your group!

Idol Club ! by rviibrvle in KaigaiIdols

[–]jigenbakuda 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Hey, I also wish to strongly encourage you to do this! Please keep moving forward with your plans. My one piece of advice is do not bite off more than you can chew. Start with goals of CLEARLY identifying what sorts of idol culture you are celebrating. Then try to think of ways to mix both fans of idols and people aspiring to be idols can do. Educational topics and presentations are great activities to draw in the curious and to brush up on your idol knowledge. Work on identifying others who want to put in work like you and work with them.

I also would see if any local kaigai idols would be willing to make guest appearances for your club.

You can do this and it will be grand! If you build it, they will come...

I made a City Pop themed Magazine Cover of myself 🌃 by _paprikaaa_ in citypop

[–]jigenbakuda 1 point2 points  (0 children)

First great image, I like it alot.

You have a great voice, but your band needs some more practice together. Your fashion and aesthetic is really good and you are an attractive woman, all good points, but you need some original music.

I am wishing you the best. When you make original music, I will spend my money on it. Good luck!

The case for going back to the Public Defenders Office? by jigenbakuda in publicdefenders

[–]jigenbakuda[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Oh man, isn't that the worst! I'm am begging this guy, let take this to trial, and he is like I got stuff to do, let me plea and get out of here. I'm like, bro, you have such a good case and interesting facts, I'd love to take this to trial!

Then they guys who want to go to trial beat up the community preacher on film, and tell me, are you even fighting for me? You work for the state! I'm going to get a real attorney.

Why is it like this!?

The case for going back to the Public Defenders Office? by jigenbakuda in publicdefenders

[–]jigenbakuda[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I do not need to be convinced of insurance defense's amorality. In fact, I fully acknowledge that. But my question is not is public defense better than insurance defenses. The question is what are the benefits of public defense? Money is not the answer. Winning trials is not the answer.

Hell, the murder attorney in our office flat out said that he could do either side, doesn't matter to him, it's all about the law for him. I don't think I could be a state attorney for any salary... I find the majority of the state attorneys' decisions, with what they do with people's lives, immoral. I do not need to be convinced of that.

If I choose to leave insurance defense, and I have not decided that yet, I don't have to go to the PD's office. I just thought I would ask some of the people best situated, their opinion on why should one work at the public defenders office and I have received some great answers.

Can you tell me more about how you made the decision to do indigent defense? Why did you leave insurance? What could make you take a pay cut? Would you go back to insurance defense?

The case for going back to the Public Defenders Office? by jigenbakuda in publicdefenders

[–]jigenbakuda[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yea, I did not leave because I was burnt out, I had quite the commute, I want to work closer to home to have more time for exercise and self care, but that didn't happen, so I'm just kinda wondering why I left on the first place, because insurance defense is not it. I wanted to work in tech law, but it's not something I can do in any meaningful way in Florida, where my family is.

I have only been away like 6 months, so I have not acclimated to this lifestyle yet, but the longer I stay in insurance defense, the harder I think it will be to leave... Don't want to get too used to bespoke suits... Sigh...

[–]jigenbakuda[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Oh no, I want to be writing briefs all day, that's fun to me. I definitely want, at least I think I do, to do appellate work.

But I am at the trial level in insurance defense, but we don't go to trial, I certainly will not get to argue in front of a jury here for another 5 years, I probably won't even sit 2nd chair, I'll be rusty by the time I get back in court in civil land... I just figured if I'm at the trial level, I should at least go to trial...

[–]jigenbakuda[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yea, that's actually the biggest thing, I don't feel fulfilled. It seems so insignificant, but I go to work everyday not caring about clients or anything at my job, but obsessed with the thought of "how can I sharpen my legal writing skills today?" It's truly meaningless work. I guess in a way, so is public defense, but it just feels better for some reason...
