By working with Midjourney, he adds a human touch to historical storytelling

What part of the process is the human part? The bit where he asks the climate-destroying computer for a picture of a city he admittedly knows very little about? Or is the human part all of the art and images that were used to create a plagiarised AND inaccurate image of history?

The guy walks into a historical building, and upon seeing some art, his first response is “I wonder what that art is about, maybe my followers can tell me”. This is the guy who is creating historical images of the city? The guy who only learnt recently that large ships were not historically seen in the harbour? I’ll admit my knowledge of Amsterdam is lacking, but I’m not trying to pass AI slop off as historically accurate representations of the past.

You want to bring history to life? Ask a historian about the history, and pay an artist to accurately represent the truth.

Implying that this isn’t a great date night…?

To piggyback on previous responses, a common trick I’ve seen in Feywild games is when introducing a new Fey, they would say “You can call me ArgleBargle, may I have your name?”

The trick is that if you give your name to someone in the Feywild, it is no longer yours.

The kicker is that owning the disk entitles you to a piece of plastic, and not much more at the moment. When servers go down, or day one patches are no longer available, the disk becomes no better than a coaster for many modern games.

Or we call out this weird shit loudly, don’t treat it like some “companies will be companies” thing, and maybe the people who would have worked with PaloAlto previously will reconsider working with the weird company that tried to present women as objects.

Not talking about this stuff is what got us here in the first place.

Fact-Mistaken.

Fact-Counterfactual, even.

Not creepy, aka doesn’t say stuff like this.

This shit again?

If you are going to ask the question “why won’t people date me?” And then combatively respond to anyone who has answers or suggestions, then you shouldn’t post here. There is genuinely good advice in this thread, but this user is only looking for a pity party and attention.

If I asked “why do I always burn my dinner?”, but ignore the people who suggest setting the oven to a lower temperature, I’ve not only wasted their time but my own.

The fact that there was an assassination attempt made against him within the last month, and we’ve all collectively moved on to talking about Harris must boil the black ichor that runs through his veins.

What the hell is this?

Another “The gardener of the cousin of the mechanic of the uncle of an aide to a staffer for a satellite office of the Democratic Party says” article.

It’s manipulative, and I don’t understand how so many people can be okay with what this means for the world.

I live in a democracy. Voting is compulsory. Some people will take the monetary fine and abstain, but for many it encourages them to at the very least become informed about the policies of each party on the big ticket issues. It’s not perfect but it means everybody has a say.

Your democracy allows one party to use the strategy of “erode confidence in the very political system we are a part of” to convince people that not taking part in their freedom is a smart choice.

What?

Do you know how elections work in your own country?

The US is First Past The Post. Whoever has the most votes wins, even if they do not have a majority of the vote. Splitting the votes of one party, or abstaining from voting only gives more power to the opposition. It is an absolutely shit system, and election reform needs to happen, but it’s what you have to deal with now, and being ignorant of how it works is going to hurt everyone.

Hypothetically there are 100 people voting between the “stubbing your toe” party and the “hot poker jammed in your urethra” party. The urethra party runs a campaign about how horrible stubbing your toe feels, and gets 40 votes. The Toe Party runs on a platform of “the choice is obvious” and gets 35. A small subset of Toe-ers break off and run their own “hitting your funnybone” party because they don’t like feet and get 10 votes. The remaining 15 voters really do NOT want to have their pissholes sealed shut by a piece of red hot iron. But at the same time, stubbing your toe or hitting your funnybone really hurts as well. They equate “pain” as an absolute value, deem both sides equal and abstain from voting.

The number of people who do not want a blistered pisser outnumber the opposition 60/40. But in the end, the numbers come out; Funnybone : 10 Toe : 35 Urethra : 40 The next day, everyone is lined up to get their pissholes branded.

Are you telling me that the abstainers hold no responsibility in the hurt that is bestowed upon the whole group? Or that Funnybone can blame Toe for not marketing themselves better?

You can’t vote against Trump, you are correct on that point, but abstaining from the vote reduces the numbers of literally the only other option.

I can’t believe Captain America would do something so fascist as punching someone he disagrees with politically.

(The biggest /S that ever existed)

The fellow who wrote the article telling people not to vote has very public and very biased political views.

If someone who wasn’t an alt-right shill wrote a similar article, I’d argue it on its points (which would all be bad). When a fascists writes an article like this, we call them a fascist and argue them on THAT point.

If I openly sell Cadbury chocolate, and go around telling people Hersheys is poison, while wearing my “I love Cadbury” shirt, are you likely to believe me?

What comments exactly have “Democrats” made in this thread that prove they are Nazis? Specific examples please.

The person who wanted to punch the cunt in the face didn’t want to do it for not voting. They specifically said it was because the cunt was a fascist who held and promoted fascist values. If punching fascists is wrong, baby, I don’t want to be right.

Are you telling me that WWII propaganda featuring Hitler being beaten was fascist?

What is your actual, useful, opinion then?

Biden is made to step down, and the Dems are split. Sure, the politically-minded on the left will back a new candidate, but the majority who do not follow politics like obsessed weirdos on the internet will see a Democratic Party that is in-fighting and indecisive.

It’s happening already. And replacing Biden, the incumbent President, with a relative unknown is just going to see more chaos. The type of chaos that Trump took the presidency from 8 years ago.

We saw it in 2016, and it makes me actually sick to my stomach that It’s happening again in 2024. The world is fucked, and changing the dottery old idiot at the head of the only party that has a chance of standing against literal fascists THIS close to the finish line is such a stupid fucking hill to die on if you aren’t being paid by the Russians.

What are the ‘honest’ media sources we should be looking at then?

If your only requirement is that a man once existed by the name of Jesus and was crucified, then the bar is on the floor. Jesus was not a rare name, and the Romans crucified many, many people. It is not out of the realm of possibility that these two common data points would overlap and give us a crucified Jesus.

Is there proof that it was THE Jesus though? Do we have corroborating evidence of a man travelling the countryside with his posse, changing the minds and hearts of the masses?

Some of my local supermarkets have these already. The worst part is that they use real shitty, dark displays. It was always easy to see the price when it was black ink on white or yellow paper, but trying to check the price on what amounts to a calculator screen at ten paces is horrid. Doesn’t help that the displays are so much smaller than paper tags, and the stores like to put the “3 for $10” as the priority, meaning the actual unit price is millimetres tall.
