I know itโ€™s the minority but ugh the way of thinking is just so scary.

People are being really insufferable about it and itโ€™s the same crowd who was angry about Covid restrictions.

I with people would fucking listen to fire bans. There is a fucking wild fire in the small town next mine. I work close to the edge of town. People and their livelihoods are at risk because you wanted to go hiking and camping. Anything and everything is setting these fires off.

They do this with rentable scooters in our area so I canโ€™t imagine why this couldnโ€™t be done for cars, especially in this day and age

My least popular (and most correct) view is that cars should be automatically limited to the local speed limit. Put the pedal to the floor and you still can't go over 25mph in a residential area.

Shout out to the person on wplace who made the milk cat pour chocolate milk into the Peticodiac River. This is so niche and so funny and whoever you are, I love you.

haha this rules.

folks don't know that AIs scraping websites accounts for like half of all internet bandwidth usage right now. Sites get scraped- ie, all the contents downloaded- over and over again, destroying/wasting their bandwidth, often maxing it out. It's like being continually DDOS'd

AI filmmaking and storytelling is punk rock. Itโ€™s hip hop. Itโ€™s counterculture. Itโ€™s a new type of creativity. Itโ€™s a new medium. Itโ€™s hated by the mainstream film and art establishment. It resists ideology. It ignores gate keeping. Itโ€™s uncomfortable. Itโ€™s scary. Itโ€™s viral. Itโ€™s accessible. Itโ€™s refreshing. Itโ€™s welcoming. Itโ€™s here.

AI filmmaking is peeing. Itโ€™s pooping. Itโ€™s throwing up. Itโ€™s a new kind of liquid coming out. Itโ€™s hated by the establishment. Itโ€™s what goes in the toilet. Itโ€™s wet. Itโ€™s whatโ€™s in the bathroom.

obsessed with this vague notice from the government of Nova Scotia. Like itโ€™s definitely about the new fire restrictions, but it also looks like a poster youโ€™d find yellowed and curled on the bulletin board of a diner in a town where locals wonโ€™t talk about their missing kids

01: A girl labeled 'Artists' is holding a drawing tablet and pen under her arm. She is wearing round glasses and a blue sweatshirt. She has messy dark-brown hair and a brown skin-tone. She says "We don't really wanna MAKE A.I. art."

02: A guy labeled 'Art Enjoyers' holds his hand out while speaking. She is wearing a purple and yellow hawaiian shirt with a floral pattern over a white t-shirt, and has red hair and a light skin-tone. He says "We don't really wanna SEE A.I. art."

03: Behind them both, there is a cute girl in a business suit with a pink tie. She is blushing a bit and has pink eyeshadow, and looks upset. Her messy shoulder-length hair is parted in the middle, and held by two hairclips: one that looks like a red arrow pointing down, and one that looks like a green arrow pointing up. She says "Um ... I-Isn't there someone you forgot to ask?" She is labeled 'Shareholders'.

04: She puffs up her cheeks and pouts, a tear is on the verge of falling from one of her eyes. 'Artist Enjoyers' Guy is now in front of her yelling "AH!! SHAREHOLDERS-CHAN!!" while 'Artists' Girl is in front of her yelling "WE'RE SORRY WE HURT YOU!!!!"
