You are correct, she should have used leading '0’s. Really, they could have fixed that sort. Excel does it without leading '0’s. Excel also does a lot of other nonsense because it is trying too hard, maybe I prefer the dumb sort. I try to get my people to start dated files with YYYYMMDDHHMM just because the file sorting is sort of dumb, but they insist on MMDDYYYY so all the years get jumbled together by month…

Yeah, people keep asking for a second screen. I don’t think it could be for anything but DS emulation. For anything else it would be pointless. I like having more space for the controls so my hand isn’t as cramped. I’m almost off the fence on getting this one. The only one that comes close is that clamshell SP style emulator, and the only reason that doesn’t win is I want to be able to play android games…

Nah, I just want a regular single android screen with the controls on the flip like it is. I don’t want the controls pushed to the outside. I also need the buttons and screen to be safe if I toss it in my pocket. It is a great form factor really.

Social media isn’t a news source. Perhaps forcing them to remove all the ‘algorithms’ might be the answer. Keep the echo chamber effect to a minimum. Excluding people from being able to speak based on the current administration’s definition of blatantly fake disinformation is a bad idea. Once again, look who is now in charge of what is ‘blatantly fake’… They’d be suing the crap out of Lemmy under that law… Europe is all in on censorship, so we can only hope the Nazis don’t take over there again or we’ll be boxed in from every direction.

The answer is never censorship. Look at who would be in charge of your ‘regulated’ social media now… It would be all of it instead of just the now hyper-regulated X.

Well… To be fair, I have a switch for me and a switch for my wife that we played daily animal crossing on for years besides our other games and never had a tracking issue, or any other issue, on either one, so it isn’t an inevitable failure. But it does give me anxiety expecting it to happen at any time.

The fact that you think humans don’t use neural networks trained by experience to generate art (or anything else we do) tells me you don’t know how humans art nor how machines train.

Yes, my brain was trained on many sources and that was the reply that was generated. Now you are getting the hang of how AI works. Congrats. Take your new knowledge and go do great things in the world.

The word you are thinking of is not ‘art’ it’s ‘skill’. A stick man that takes 3 seconds is art. The person who sketched it is an ‘artist’. A painting a master works on for a decade is art and the guy who made it is an ‘artist’. One takes more skill than the other, but they both get to be called art. Nobody of note is claiming the skills are comparable, but you are trying to gate-keep the terms ‘art’ and ‘artist’ pretty hard-core. The same as the people who claimed photograpy wasn’t art because all the person did was “have an eye for the prompt… I mean shot. And curate a generated image, i mean capture an image on film and pass it off as their ‘art’.”

You’d know.

They will wait a few months and then sell the premium joycons at twice the price of regular joycons.

This is sort of like the advice i was given when traveling. Don’t give money to begging children. They have handlers in the background who get the money and giving it incentivizes them to force more children into begging.

Don’t bother trying to use logic or the actual definition of art with these AntiAI cultists. “AI art isn’t art.” is more of a religious chant with them than a well thought out position. Their types also declaired photograpy as “not art” back in the day. The NeoLuddites of today don’t remember that and don’t even know that they are aping the same misdefinition of art for the same reasons. But they are. Educating them is sort of an uphill battle as it is with any kind of Luddite.

4. I wasn’t wrong but i should have qualified it. There are instances where companies have pirated art, but the majority is stuff you can freely access online. I agree that they shouldn’t have the pirated art that was behind pay walls. What they do with it isn’t the problem there, it is that they have it. I should have said that the pirating of art isn’t fundamental to the process and really probably was due to overzealous people tasked with finding data to train on and who, like most of us, grew up in the Naptster/limewire era.

1. That’s not how AI works.
2. How is access limited and at the same time you are bullying everyday Joes who are actually using it?
3. Delete all software and turn off your computer or be a hypocrite.
4. The stuff they use for training is free for any artist to train on.
5. You don’t own the definition of art and nobody you will encounter in a post of any sort is even doing it for major profit.
6. You don’t own the definition of art.
7. AI is for everyone, but is made for the rich to get richer, like literally everything else you see or do online.

People love it when they find something they can bully people with and feel self righteous about it. Especially when they feel like they have a big enough gang to back them up.

Yeah, that is pretty much how it goes. Some nice person shares a piece of AI art they find interesting and the AntiAI bros bully them nonstop and proceed to word vomit their nonsense for the next 3 years all over every site even when it isn’t relevant.

Has everyone forgotten about Guantanamo? There are probably people there still who just got caught up in “911” sweeps for all we know. Even if they say they’ve moved or transferred all of them.
