It’s blatantly obvious you’ve not spent a lot of time with Stable Diffusion or similar, you can’t just say, “Make a picture of Danny Devito eating Doritos in the dark with a can of soda on the ground near a tent.”
You have to get a picture for the control net, use masks, tweak in-painting, and modulate the multitude of creativity and prompt strength settings.
Your ignorance is no excuse to shit on AI (or LLMs) as a tool.
If someone had created this picture with a photo editing software, you wouldn’t be this reactive. And I imagine you don’t need to cite celebrities when using their likeness for silly memes, but if they made T-shirts with it, for sure they’d have to get permission.
- Comment on Is Mario Kart Double Dash the best one? 4 weeks ago:
8DX has something crazy like 128 tracks, which makes me like it more than the rest, but I do wish it was more dynamic like DD.
- Comment on New year, new me 4 weeks ago:
Shit on X, sure, but as AI trash goes, it’s just a tool. Like Photoshop or spell check. And they made a good picture with said tool.
- Comment on A majority of migrant workers employed with H-1B visas are paid below-median wages: Large tech firms, including Amazon, Google, and Microsoft, use visa program to underpay workers 4 weeks ago:
Same in the healthcare industry. They use it to underpay American nurses and doctors.
- Comment on EU countries to push for outdoor smoking and vaping bans 1 month ago:
I tried quitting for nearly a decade, vaping was literally the only thing that worked long-term. I was able to step down at my own pace and eventually stop.
- Comment on Laos government pledges justice in mass alcohol poisoning case that has killed 6 tourists 2 months ago:
I mean, I’ll never drink liquor in a developing nation because of this and many similar cases in other countries. You only get methanol from distilling spirits, so I’ll stick to wine and beer when overseas. It’s horrible that it has to be this way, but it’s the safest route.

- Comment on I rented many games solely based on their covers, only to be mildly disappointed when I got home. 3 months ago:
LMAO, I got super into Evony. Even coded a bot myself to run my rogue base 24/7 so my guild could attack it for massive loot. I totally got suckered by their ad. That was like 2008/2009.

Bro, that stupid game with the guys that shoot barrels to get more fighters/better weapons looked fun. The actual game is a shitty base builder with timed progression, of course you can pay to get past the time locks. Fuck that company and every “influencer” that takes their dirty money.

Imagine an AI bound by Sharia law, the current ones limited by American puritanical bullshit are already bad enough. “How did prostitution during the gold rush affect the economy of mining towns?”
