You must post before you leave
Be nice. Assume others have good intent (within reason).

Use content warnings and/or mark as NSFW when appropriate. Most posts with content warnings likely need to be marked NSFW.
Most 196 posts are memes, shitposts, cute images, or even just recent things that happened, etc. There is no real theme, but try to avoid posts that are very inflammatory, offensive, very low quality, or very "off topic".

Avoid shilling for corporations, posting advertisements, or promoting exploitation of workers.

Moderator Guidelines
Moderator Guidelines
- Don’t be mean to users. Be gentle or neutral.
- Most moderator actions which have a modlog message should include your username.
- When in doubt about whether or not a user is problematic, send them a DM.
- Don’t waste time debating/arguing with problematic users.
- Assume the best, but don’t tolerate sealioning/just asking questions/concern trolling.
- Ask another mod to take over cases you struggle with, if you get tired, or when things get personal.
- Ask the other mods for advice when things get complicated.
- Share everything you do in the mod matrix, both so several mods aren't unknowingly handling the same issues, but also so you can receive feedback on what you intend to do.
- Don't rush mod actions. If a case doesn't need to be handled right away, consider taking a short break before getting to it. This is to say, cool down and make room for feedback.
- Don’t perform too much moderation in the comments, except if you want a verdict to be public or to ask people to dial a convo down/stop. Single comment warnings are okay.
- Send users concise DMs about verdicts about them, such as bans etc, except in cases where it is clear we don’t want them at all, such as obvious transphobes. No need to notify someone they haven’t been banned of course.
- Explain to a user why their behavior is problematic and how it is distressing others rather than engage with whatever they are saying. Ask them to avoid this in the future and send them packing if they do not comply.
- First warn users, then temp ban them, then finally perma ban them when they break the rules or act inappropriately. Skip steps if necessary.
- Use neutral statements like “this statement can be considered transphobic” rather than “you are being transphobic”.
- No large decisions or actions without community input (polls or meta posts f.ex.).
- Large internal decisions (such as ousting a mod) might require a vote, needing more than 50% of the votes to pass. Also consider asking the community for feedback.
- Remember you are a voluntary moderator. You don’t get paid. Take a break when you need one. Perhaps ask another moderator to step in if necessary.

Is that a door with a bolt latch partly behind the tub?!
And the tub + toilet going on top of a carpet?
If I remember right, this stoked accusations of AI art being used in DC backgrounds.
You remember wrong. It's from 2016, long before AI art was a thing.
Yeah designers and illustrators have been using sloppy technical shortcuts since long before AI, speaking as a designer/illustrator
So AI slop before the AI. Wonder where AI learned to be bad from?
I get what you're saying, but i want to remind people: AI doesnt learn! LLMs don't think nor remember, it is only a fancy prediction model. It is more analogous to phone texting word prediction. It cant do anything remotely human-like.
Agreed, got trained would have been better. Learned can mean that, but implies a bit more than was meant.
They dont call it machine learning for nothing. The process it learned isnt too far off how biological neurons work, except instead of random chemical interactions... machine neurals use...math
Feet, hands, it's all the same thing if you can't draw, right
Isn't this post/screenshot from before the novelai leaks and stable diffusion hit it big? Wasnt that like October 2022?
I assume it is tile, but a bathroom that large would have a designer who wouldn't have the tile pattern clip under the front of a toilet or the corner of a tub so it is terrible wither way.
Maybe it's a Murphy tub?
Considering what we’re looking at, this is the most sensible explanation. WTF
Forgetting to drain it before it flipped up would be a nightmare
No, that's the only way it drains all the way.¹
¹on paper. In reality it never goes up perfectly straight and you have to put it up, take it back down, mop out the last little bit, then put it back up, where the remaining damp absolutely will not air dry without a box fan running in the room.
My brother lived in an apartment in Chicago for a couple years. Apartments there are usually the whole floor on the thin but deep building. It took him almost a year before he noticed there was a full size door behind his refrigerator. He never bothered to figure out where it went as that was the edge of the building(external wall). So it was just weird. That apartment was full of stuff like that. It had another door that looked like it was from Willy Wonka(about 1/8 the size of normal). There was also an attic hatch. The typical drywall on a square frame section of trim. The issue was it was only like ~18” diagonal. He figured it was like an access panel to plumbing or something…but nope. Just went to the attic but you could really only stick your head through unless you were a child.
He had all sorts of interesting places. One had the old school elevators where you had to pull the grates down to close the shaft and elevator opening. You could just look up and see multiple floors above you. Had the slide lever for up/down instead of buttons.
Do not check where the carpet goes
I love your username.
My professors for the CS class on Parallelism and concurrency was making an analogy between different functions and lego bricks. At one point presenting a function and the associated lego brick, decorated with nice flames, he droped: "This lego brick turns out to be so good that it is litterally on fire". I liked that.
I bet she's whacked her shin on that thing so many times
