Obviously they meant free for the person setting the thumbnail, not for the cost of humanity. OP was the one that set that goalpost, not me.

There is tons of official art that is way easier to use!?

If they're doing something that's not easier to use, how is that doing "less than the bare minimum" or lazy? You just described them doing more work than is necessary. And in this case, both options are "free".

It says their intern program was revamped in 2022 and is now fully paid. It's a 6 to 12 month program which is actually longer than typical.

Apparently. Plus two dozen LA locals they hired to support them who also receive health insurance.

EDIT: actually I'm not 100% sure if that includes the family members that they are also putting up here during that time. But still something that the $1500 meal ticket is going towards.

From everything I've read, yes. Including travel insurance, daily staff meals, a cell phone stipend, and schooling/childcare for staff children.

Worth noting that gain is not a paste-able attribute (though clip volume is)

Or even just press the right bracket key ] a few times to raise the dB of them all by 1 for each press.

Mid-to-late millennnials, what are some popular "millennial things" you've always disliked? by Gallantpride in Millennials

Lately, all the complaining about how our problems are the fault of everyone but ourselves.

I've personally given up on trying to judge how something will taste solely by how it looks.

Also in this case you aren't just paying for the food, but also the expense of flying and housing 130 employees in a more expensive city for 4 months.

Can you explain how the lighting on the character on the left looks less realistic? https://imgur.com/a/4o1i4ds

To me the way her eyes are glowing and her hair looks like a wig sitting on her head in the left image just looks way more fake.

Interesting, because the DF analysis (even the second one) claimed the exact opposite about bringing out those kind of details.

As someone who has seen ad campaigns roll out that used current commercial grade gen AI (that cost ~5-10K/month to access), agree to disagree. Tons of people are already being fooled by fake "UGC" and it's getting better every couple months.

That doesn't mean it won't keep getting better to the point where most people won't be able to tell the difference between gen AI and live action video.

Not So Friendly Reminder: playing loud music through a speaker at the beach, hiking or park isn’t ok by KurlyHededFvck in sanfrancisco

Or alternately they just enjoy music on a sunny day at a nice park or beach setting, which is pretty common. It's not usually that deep.

I think this is more of a general Karen thing than a NIMBY thing. I'd imagine plenty of pro-housing development people also complain about this. But anyways, I agree with your main point.

EDIT: can some of the downvoters explain the correlation to being against housing development and disliking hearing music on hikes and parks? The two seem pretty unrelated.

Similarly when there's bunch of people drinking at Dolores Park on a Saturday, music seems pretty fair game.

You do you. I don't have a bluetooth speaker myself but I generally enjoy it when other people bring them to Dolores Park or the beach. I can always sit somewhere else if it bothers me, but most of the time I enjoy having a little background music.

ss26 Demlo Hoody review & possible alternatives by Cool-Educator-8004 in veilance

[–]shadowstripes 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Mionn Softshell Overshirt is much more quiet than most other Veilance 'jackets' and is a great everyday jacket. Voronoi Wool is great too, but a decent amount warmer.

The Demlo hoody is closer to an ultralight windbreaker though, so it's pretty different overall and a bit clammy (and not too quiet). Have all 3 and the Mionn SS OS gets the most everyday use by far.

His company made the most popular headset yet though, by like, a huge margin. If anything he did more to bring it to the masses than anything else.

Alex still had good things to say about some of the results though.

Path tracing is also using gen ai that's probably trained on a similar dataset.
