HUwUah!

Listen the teacher spelled it wrong, hardly the student’s fault

The pencil does not make the art.

There’s a fundamental difference between AI image generation and an artist creating something that is both inherent and obvious.

If you can’t see that then I’m not sure there’s much help for you.

More than that, art being created by an artist has a style and a feeling behind it. There’s a nostalgia present in every painting. An artist saw something, and recreated it in a way that spoke to them.

An algorithm can recreate images that look similar but with no understanding. It’s just an image and lacks all the things that makes art what it is. By removing humanity from art you literally remove the reason for it to exist.

Flatly, it isn’t art. It’s slightly better than random. But as it happens, humans are better at that too.

He didn’t make shit.

A computer made it. He provided some guidance.

I have an app for my sprinkler system and it’s a fucking nightmare. Not only is it basically just a web API, it’s so transparently just a glorified browser with access to exactly one site that frequently my phone thinks that app will work for whatever else I’m trying to open.

Document? Sprinkler app. Web Page? Sprinkler app. Installing from a source other than Google? Oh you better believe the sprinkler app can do that.

Doing anything takes longer to load than it would take me to walk from anywhere on my property to the fucking box and hit whatever button I need to hit.

It frequently forgets what I entered for preferences. I can tell it a week ahead what days I want it to skip but if I do that more than 24 hours on advance I might as well not have done it at all.

Oh you want to make a payment online? Let your sprinklers do that for you. YouTube video? Sprinkler app. YouTube video about fixing your fucking sprinkler system? Sprinkler app.

Apparently the one thing it can’t do is effectively manage my water usage. It’s ONE job

To be clear, I’m taking issue with the cut up bits of cheese part, not the battered and deep fried part

That’s not what cheese curds are and if that’s how they’re serving you cheese curds where you are I’m sorry.

Cheese curds are literally tiny little curds of cheese and should be kinda springy.

Yes you fucking do.

You cannot be arrested without charge and detained indefinitely. Generally it’s between 24 and 72 hours before they’re required to charge you or release you.

I got it. Guys I got it.

Instead of building one more lane we build two. FOUR! above and below! EVERYWHERE YOU LOOK IS LANES.

Because if you drill through the side wall you’ll sever some of the steel reinforcement cables and render it irreparable. Drill through the treads and you might be able to plug it back up

That’s absolutely insane. Never drill a hole through your tire treads.

Always drill through the side wall. Much more efficient.

I have occasionally found the Google search AI handy in pointing me in the right direction, like when I can’t remember or don’t know a particular term for something, it’s decent at giving me the term I’m actually searching for. Can’t trust it for shit as it’s intended to be used though.

There are low sugar sports drinks. Most of the electrolytes they’re advertising is just salt. Your body needs salt to function. You lose salt when you sweat.

My doctor told me I come literally just put some table salt in water and it would do just as well as any sports drink, sugar or no.

I work in a physical environment and they hand out electrolyte packets and Gatorade like candy when it gets hot.

“what? It’s not illegal to have a cum tube!”

Well then what would you say you do here

I have a flathead in my plumbing bag because sometimes those funny shaped nuts are so inconveniently located the only thing that will get to it is a really frigging long screwdriver.

Though if it’s leaking…? From where? Won’t shut all the way off or the drainage or around the faucet? I need more details.

Below the waist, a shot to the arm. That’s kinda it around here. Seems pretty universal

I was referring to the engine block and pistons being aluminum. I assume chassis and many of the critical spinning bits are still steel or iron.

It’s also mostly a shit post. I’m a machinist and I am surrounded by aluminum in funny forms.

Aluminum is where it’s at, and where it is, is everywhere.

Your cans? Aluminum. Your car? Mostly aluminum. Old wiring, you better believe that’s aluminum. Your fucking phone screen is aluminum, sand paper is aluminum, half the birth stones are all aluminum let’s fucking goooo baybee

On my last trip I had a full water bottle with me and the lady said I had to throw it away, so I looked her dead in the eye while I chugged the entire bottle and stuffed the bottle in my bag.

Fuckin tell me I can’t bring the water through again.
