A little more work on my next adopt, another banelander. Banes are the desert subspecies of psychoraptor.

GOG did an AMA and they all but confirmed that they will continue using Gen AI.
"AI tools are one of many technologies we test and try out, and in some contexts it genuinely helps us push the company (and the mission) forward".
I mean, no way they could pay an artist like before, right?

Yup.

another cool thing is squeezing oklab along the ab dimensions before the dithering, makes things quite TASTY

So I just finished scripting my next video and... *sigh* I already know the internet is gonna do what the internet gonna do lol

Inspired by this post to do a video I've been plotting for the last 3 years-- Black Innovators In Gaming.

Might need y'all support when the casual racism starts 🥱

Commercial use of gen AI should have to pay licensing fees to rights holders of trained works. Like this is obvious. They should also have to pay a worker displacement tax and environmental cost tax. Not to mention regulations around deep fakes, CSAM, and misinformation.

A bus stop near Tesla's flagship store in London. Imagine a Super Bowl ad that showed only this.

I'd like to add that like in all industries, when we stop understanding how our tools work, we become entirely dependent on the corporate entities that own the mold. We are trading the ability to build and repair for the convenience of being permanent tenants in someone else's infrastructure/subs.

don't love doing this, but since people have asked and i got mutuals following them

snow-kiss is likely an AI-slop bot

they post cutesy pixel art w/ text like "let me know what you think", "a comment would make my day" but there's too many signs to ignore

Vibe Coding Is Killing Open Source Software, Researchers Argue ‘If the maintainers of small projects give up, who will produce the next Linux?’

Vibe coding is working as expected: it'll kill the open-source, secure, and ideologically maintained alternatives to make sure you have to pay the oligarchs to do anything at all, and they can control what you're allowed to make.

A Pixel Art redraw of a fish in the ocean, staring directly at the camera from the left side, with their eyes being barely visible because, well... they're a fish, and fishes with front views don't get too well together.

The original image that the redraw of the last image is based on.

L'Urssaf réclame 1,7 milliard d'euros à Uber : "On soulève une fois de plus la frontière floue entre liberté entrepreneuriale et salariat", estime Nicolas Doze sur LCI | TF1 Info [VIDÉO] Uber devra-t-il payer 1,7 milliard d'euros à l'Urssaf ? La multinationale américaine est poursuivie pour travail dissimulé. L'éditorialiste économie Nicolas Doze livre son analyse sur LCI. - ...

Alors comment dire…
Il n’y a RIEN de « flou » entre la prestation de services indépendante et le salariat.
Les textes et surtout la jurisprudence sont très CLAIRS sur le sujet, et c’est très facile de savoir dans quel cadre juridique on se trouve.

Tweet de Dati : Rachida Dati @datirachida Hier, j'ai rencontré la Fédération des syndicats pharmaceutiques de France. À Paris, des quartiers entiers sont devenus des déserts médicaux et les pharmacies ferment. Je soutiendrai les officines, sécuriserai les gardes et ferai des pharmacies de vrais hubs de prévention.

Mdr le fameux désert des pharmacies à Paris.
