The floating ferris wheel discs and the rabbit ear, like, grain elevator contraption that exists for no reason.

 

The Christmas season has officially begun (for me)!

 

Saw this video. And it changes depending on if I view the thumbnail in my browser or in private mode/logged out of YT. Went back on their channel page logged in and it remains saying "You Are Not Right Wing" so it's not specific to their channel page showing a different thumbnail.

YouTube also will not stop trying to show me right-wing "downfall of Canada" videos. Maybe YouTube thinks I'm right-wing.

It would make me reconsider dialectical materialism.

Looking at detail in general, especially stuff that's complex like wrinkles, knots, frills and patterns around edges. AI is really bad at small details like that and keeping them stable, especially when compared with each other. Perspective can be really off too sometimes. Other stuff to look for: hair strands, the height of trees in the background, clouds, clothing trim, reflections, etc.

I heard if you use Photoshop (or something similar) you can use that to show JPG artifacting in machine-sludge images too even if they're lossless files, though I didn't fully grasp that fully.

Some Australian was asking in the comments of that video why people needed to heat their homes and surely blankets would be enough. Middleclass dipshits are going to kill us all.

Can someone explain what a grand jury is exactly.

There's an anime YouTuber that made an 8 hour video defending NFTs and one of the arguments is "people use a lot of energy to heat and cool their homes too". Stupid as fuck.

It better. I love a good video game couch, e.g. ICO.

Maybe. I assumed her BF's family were regular Canadian shitlibs but she told me before the dad buys Black Rifle Coffee and I'm assuming there's no one apolitically buying that coffee.

My sister is hosting Christmas and letting her BF's dad cook a lot of it, i. e. explicitly non-veganizing it so mynMom and I gotta' make a bunch of food for ourselves now. Can't even give me vegan whipped/mashed potatoes. And she's usually good about trying to accommodate me.

Posts in estranged parents' forums are vague. Members recount stories with the fewest possible details, the least possible context. They don't recreate entire scenes, repeat entire conversations, give entire text exchanges; they paraphrase hours of conversation away. The only element they describe in detail is their own grief or rage. Nor do the other members press them for more information.

Compare this with the forums for adult children of abusers, where the members not only cut-and-paste email exchanges into their posts, they take photos of handwritten letters and screenshot text conversations. They recreate scenes in detail, and if the details don't add up, the other members question them about it. They get annoyed when a member's paraphrase changes the meaning of a sentence, or when omitted details change the meaning of a meeting. They care about precision, context, and history.

Reading this site since someone linked it was on Reddit talking about how reactionary boomers perceive the world.
