Well, since it’s so nicely asked, here’s one. banner If you’re wondering why I didn’t lead by offering that, it’s a manner of stance. Shitjustworks made the choice use AI “art”. It was a political choice. This is a pro AI community. As I said, lines are drawn. Shitjustworks picked their side long ago, I was slower to pick mine. I now think that someone who’d chose an AI banner, even over the absence of a banner is not on my side. Anyway, waiting for you to see to this comment is the last thing I have to do before deleting my account, so please reply to notify me when you did, whethrt or not you have anything to say; and I’ll be on my way. As for this ‘banner’, I don’t believe it’ll be used and I don’t care if it is. The point of making it was just a point: Drawing isn’t a hard skill. Those who want to learn can. Those who ask receive.

It matters little since I’ll be deleting my shitjustworks account soon. Beside, I’m had an Hexbear account for about three years, the only reason I made an account on another Lemmy instance is that they weren’t federated then.

- Comment on Who would win in a fight, a Gorilla or a Bear of equal weight? 1 week ago:
I get that a gorilla is more likely to stand his ground, especially if it’s a silverback and he sees the bear as a threat to his pack. But I see the scenario where the bears deems it not worth it and leaves more as a “fight not happening” rather than “gorilla wins the fight”. Since the question implies a fight is taking place, I’d exclude this scenario and assume they must fight tooth and nail. And if that happens, I bet on the bear.

It always comes back to Gilgamesh.
- Comment on Who would win in a fight, a Gorilla or a Bear of equal weight? 1 week ago:
Bear. Gorillas can get killed by leopards. Yeah, they’re musculars and got decently sharp incisives, but bears hunt large animals as part of their diet, so they’re better equiped to kill. Teeth, bite force, claws, thick fur to dampen attacks…

Does it count if it’s not done playing? If so “Vodou adjae in my ass”. Or " Vodou dances in my ass" or “Vodou adjae nan boudam” for language coherence. Otherwise “Stup virus in my ass”.

Wow, and there’s AI in it? Must invest!
/s - Comment on What actually came first? The chicken or the egg? 2 weeks ago:
But chicken are the same species as their wild counterpart, the red jungle fowl. And there’s such a diversity of them, some may be more closely related to a wild jungle fowl than to another variety of domestic chicken. Therefore, it seems to me that what defines a chicken (as opposed to a jungle fowl) isn’t a specific genetic mutation, but the fact that it’s domesticated. And it seems to me that capturing a live jungle fowl would’ve been easier than hatching an egg you’ve harvested. The fowl that first laid an egg in captivity may thus already be considered a chicken, although it was born a red jungle fowl, hatched from a red jungle fowl’s egg; and only then it laid the first chicken’s egg.

No, France.

I’ve seen a fair amount of Chinese tourists and I don’t recall seeing them act in a way that struck me as particularly proper or improper. They’re mostly just walking around and looking at stuff. I also haven’t heard of specific complaints about their behavior. Some people complain about tourism in general, how some places get too crowded and prices increase, but it’s less about the behavior of tourists. Or when it is, it’s not the Chinese who are singled out for it.

Then me and Kyle,
We looked at each-other.
And we each said:
“OK”. - Comment on Google it 3 weeks ago:
I think if wizards actually existed, they would seldom bother with actual curses; which seem complicated to cast and prone to backfiring. Having shown someone a little magic, they’d be very easy to trick into thinking they’ve been cursed, and the resulting paranoia, anxiety and confirmations bias would do the job. I imagine it’d be some wizard’s favorite trick. They’d gloat about it to their colleagues and they’d laugh together in their secret wizard circles.
So a wizard would need a pretty strong incentive to cast an actual curse.
- Comment on here, have another insult to life itself 3 weeks ago:
OpenAI released a generative model that emulates the famous Studio Ghibli art style; or more precisely Hayao Miyazaki’s art style. The latter had once said “I strongly feel that this is an insult to life itself” when presented with a proof of concept of AI generated 3D characters, an exchange you can watch here. Now, this specific sentence refers more to the idea of using unnatural movements similar to a disability for creepy shock factor; but he also seems avert to the concept of AI art.
- Comment on How the fuck do I find out where and when all these protests and rallies are happening? 4 weeks ago:
Depends on where you live, but try to find an organization active in your town whose ideas are somewhat in line with yours. If they’re on a social media you use or have a website with an RSS feed you can subscribe to, use that. Otherwise, try and get in their contacts (many organizations have a contact list broader than their actual member list, so you don’t have to adhere if you’re not sure to commit). Then you get notified for every action they take part in.
To find them in the first place… Keep your eyes peeled for stickers or posters in the streets; and try to find the people at a protest or event said posters advertised.

- Comment on Am I a bad artist 😂? 1 month ago:
“Bad” I can’t say, you took no risk, and this made no mistakes.
Using triangles for the bodies is a good idea, as triangles are a good shape, you can do anything with triangles. Have you consider increasing the amount of triangle, as such?
two triangles bodies more triangles
I dropped the round heads in the last one, because honestly, circles are an overrated shape. And you can do anything in triangles, why use anything else?
You can find any number of foolish ressources online, none of them tells you the truth about triangles. All sorts of websites and yet more websites try to teach you how to draw, without even mentioning triangles in any of their tutorials.

One of the big reasons why it’s considered unsafe to swim in floodwater is the hygien: Remember the sewers must be overflowing. Plus, the water can have engulfed any amount of chemicals (oil, gaz, battery acid…)

I classified my memes and sorted them in folders and sub folders (like, the “wojak” folder is a subfolder of “rage”). I might have a slightly different problem.

Understandable, u and v are originally the same letter, so the words are really “vvvla” and “vvlva”, just a small permutation…

I don’t think putting something in a freezer would disinfect it. Stop the microbes from breading while it’s inside, but they start again quickly as soon as it gets out.
