    Kinda out of topic, but why do all of those AI images have those yellowed filters?

    • CubitOom@infosec.pub ⁨18⁩ ⁨hours⁩ ago

      Its called the piss filter.

      Generative models (what is often referred to as AI) are opaque and it’s almost impossible to understand exactly how something got added or why it’s happening. But somewhere along the way models started to use it and no one looking at the output thought it was bad enough to not post.

      Yeah all AI images have a bend towards warm yellow hues. So much that If you keep feeding the output of AI back into AI it just gets more yellow over time. It’s probably something to do with training sets taking in movies and social media posts where people prefer to show themselves in “golden hour”.

        AI-caterpillar effect.

      I assume that part of the prompt is tying back to WW2 era propaganda and a lot of those posters have yellowed with age by the time they made it into the dataset.

      Same question. It’s weird and instantly recognizable. I guess training data but I have never seen a real explanation about that.

      Come to think of it, the Covenant have a lot in common with American brand millennial Evangelists. Leaning really hard on immanentising the eschaton.

      Then don’t click on it, asshole! There is plenty of shit on here that I don’t care about, but I don’t bitch about it. I just scroll on.

      Fuck you!

      • callouscomic@lemmy.zip ⁨18⁩ ⁨hours⁩ ago

        I scroll on 99% of the time and/or hide it.

        Fuck you.

      Man. I’m sorry you are experiencing reality. But like, maybe you should be aware of what is happening?

      The fact that you are more mad about reading an article from PC gamer than that hundreds of thousands of people are being abducted says a lot about you.

        Some of us used to care and the endless exhaustion is too much. I simply am a person trying to exist, and I only continue to shrink how much bullshit I consume more and more and more since it infects everything.

        Not wanting to see horrible shit constantly doesnt equate to not caring.

        Get fucked.

    This is why while I love 40k, I have mixed feelings about there ever being a mainstream movie/show about it. I can already imagine MAGA wearing shirts saying “Purge the xeno scum”

    The Master Chief needs to finish the fight. Fuck up the (Trump) covenant

    source
    • Zahille7@lemmy.world ⁨1⁩ ⁨day⁩ ago

      Damn, now I want a mod that replaces all Covenant enemies with these fascists, and replace all their voice lines with actual quotes they’ve said.

      You could do Stephen Miller for the Prophets, Trump for the Elites, and maybe Alex Jones or something for the Grunts.

      I wish somebody did shove that old cunt into that suit like somebody trying to stuff a sleeping bag into the carry bag it can’t in. the trauma would be unreal.

    I feel like one of the covenant prophets would have been more fitting what with how racist they are.

    The suit is jacking him off

    The DHS equating migrants being deported to fighting the flood was surreal. I had to do a double take.

    I’ve been a fan of Halo since CE, so many memories and custom games, I got legendary editions and autographs from chief and cortanas va’s, in no way are the white house’ shit posts diminishing all of that, after all this is just the churned SLOP of some intern. I sure as shit won’t be buying anything Halo or XBOX, spineless corporation…

  • ILikeBoobies@lemmy.ca ⁨11⁩ ⁨hours⁩ ago

    Confused, it was a reply to celebrating Halo on PS5, where does the ‘destroy immigration’ part come in?

    source
    • CubitOom@infosec.pub ⁨11⁩ ⁨hours⁩ ago

      Several hours after the White House post, the Department of Homeland Security put up its own Halo image with the message “Destroy the Flood,” and a link to the ICE recruitment page.

        Weird not to include that image, thanks.

    so if you want to be a pedophile, senile, racist with a full diaper, play Halo… got it Microsoft

    source
  • finitebanjo@lemmy.world ⁨23⁩ ⁨hours⁩ ago

    We do have to hold Microsoft to a very slightly different standard, because they’re a Military Contractor. They’re not going to risk hundreds of billions of dollars to take a stance and make a statement. In that sense, this should not surprise anybody.

    source
    • T00l_shed@lemmy.world ⁨23⁩ ⁨hours⁩ ago

      No, we really don’t have to hold them in a different standard. It makes sense they are kowtowing to the fascist regime though

      source
      • finitebanjo@lemmy.world ⁨21⁩ ⁨hours⁩ ago

        Yes my entire point is that what they’re doing makes sense. It would actually be strange if the did anything differently given their position.

    Can’t be any shittier than the TV show. Probably will have Milltana as the AI.
