Pro-AI mod and self-proclaimed 'communist' got mad for being downvoted. in c/fuck_ai@lemmy.world

Thing is, as someone who has fooled around with locally hosted image gen, it's actually sometimes a whole fucking lot of work to try and bend prompts to get the stupid algorithm to spit out what you want. They'd rather put in a shit tonne of effort for an objectively worse result.

Almost certainly they won't. But yeah, you're ruining the joke.

Or the Proud Boys. They're suing the government for prosecution of Jan 6th, $100m I think. Paid triple+ as a "settlement" with an agreement to deploy and do taco's dirty work. There's your militia.

Get the fuck outta here with that! Any red blooded microphile knows XP was PEAK windows experience. The lower opacity of windows in Vista was a bright spot in an otherwise disgusting experience.

Goddamn this takes me back! Just showed it to my youngest brother. He was barely alive when this was made.

I believe that was the joke?

Edit: it's basically a trope at this point. Crypto/tech bros, like the Libertarian scum they evolved from, yearn for the sea

I know 3 numbers by heart, mine, my wife's, and my dad's because he's had the same number since I was 10.

2000s adult cartoon (lemmy.ca)
 

Wracking my brain. Alcoholic teen main character with imaginary bird friend always telling him to smoke drink and light stuff on fire. All I can remember from the theme is "he's really fucked up and we don't know why"

Richmond East-Steveston(BC) riding question. (lemmy.ca)
 

Anyone tied in with the BC NDP? I'm an export(I hate the term expat, doesn't apply to me, always be a Canadian regardless of where I live) currently in the UK. Elections.ca says the candidate registration deadline is the 7th, and details to be released 9th. But I'm a bit antsy to see who's running for my registered riding. It'd be nice to have a chance to look into who I'm going to be voting for. My main concern is that sometimes mail can take quite a while to get through to home from here, and I want to be able to send my ballot as early as possible so I'm positive that it will get to Ottawa before 6pm of the 28th.
As we all know this election has a lot potentially hanging on the outcome, and I want my say counted.

Thanks for any info or thoughts. ✊

See User profile picture in comments (lemmy.ca)
 

I looked through the posts here, and the various threads on the git. Saw that the feature was implemented, but doesn't appear in my settings?

Just wondering if it was axed, never actually got rolled into main, or was rolled back due to stuff?

Using Voyager, so maybe an issue with how it's communicating with the picture services?

I recently came into a 2nd hand 3dSystems Cube3...with no power lead (lemmy.ca)
 

Just hoping someone here can give me info on the pin out of the power lead so I can buy a replacement. I contacted 3dSystems, and they sent me the EoL package along with the code to unlock the printer. The EoL package has not been helpful for the power supply issue, and weeks of combing the web and forums has come up with nothing. So I'm hoping someone here can help me out.

Thanks for any help you lovely folk can come up with!

I've messed myself up cheating in Trails in the Sky: FC Evolution (lemmy.ca)
 

I don't have a pre-cheat save, and I'm stuck in Ruan because I have turned in one of a stack of key items, but since I still have a load of them I can't progress. Also can't hand the item back more than once. Looking like I'll have to either find a save that's around the same area as I am, or start from scratch......

If anyone has any idea how to delete items from your inventory.....for the love of f**k please clue me in....
