Now put them in a singularity
- Comment on SHL0MS(famous prankster on X/Twitter) baited AI haters by posting a real painting by Monet, claiming it was AI generated. The post got viral(>6M views) as art critics started deleting their replies 2 weeks ago:
By claiming the image was AI generated OP removed the artist from the work. Of course the image was going to be seen through a different lens. The artist is so closely coupled to the art we even use the artists name when describing an image, “it’s a Monet”, etc.
- Comment on Is Roots really that controversial that it needs to be banned? Haven't watched the movie cause I quit pot and haven't read the book but isn't it like historical or something? 2 weeks ago:
This answer just raises more question 🤔

This is such a stupid metric and any investors excited by it should feel bad.
- Comment on Hundreds Of ‘Star Trek: Discovery’ Props And Costumes Go Up For Auction; Bidding Open Now 1 month ago:
Do they take us for fools?! They have replicators in Star Trek so these props and costumes are worthless!
- Comment on Why is it that when the graphics driver freaks out in your browser when watching a video, the page always turns this specific shade of green? 1 month ago:
Trees appear green because they absorb red and blue light while reflecting green light. Maybe your TV is photosynthesising ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ I just wanted to add to the list of unhelpful answers

But they had more fun colours for appliances

OK tell us the rest of this half story. What did you say at Easter dinner?
- Comment on Petition update | Petitions to continue *Starfleet Academy* break 30,000 signatures 1 month ago:
Everything is so on the nose with modern Star Trek. I really struggled to get into Discovery and didn’t even bother with Academy. Lower Decks is great. 🖖
- Comment on I'm thinking of putting my cat on an all vegan diet. What are some good veggies and plant based proteins for cats? 2 months ago:
I suggest a cheesy lasagna
- Comment on Does Anyone Else get the thing where an otherwise nice-tasting cheese randomly tastes of vomit, or have I just been really unlucky and eaten a lot of mouldy/rotten cheese in my time? 2 months ago:
It’s the same flavour (from butyric acid) in both. It just depends on what your brain chooses to associate that smell with that determines the taste. So your brain is just switching between the two. Maybe look at the cheese packet when you’re eating it to see if you can help your brain get the right answer
- Comment on Is it impolite to crosspost someone else's post to another community on Lemmy without saying anything? 2 months ago:

The US has some amazing musicians

Native English speak (Australian) and I didn’t get full marks when I did my Canadian permit residency English test. That’s all I speak and apparently not well.

This photo could be achieved with a telescopic lens
- Comment on LemmyNSFW and Saidit are dead. Which Platform is next? 2 months ago:
Maybe the maintainer of LemmyNSFW actually meant a different NSFW acronym like “No Shoes For Whales” and was confused about the content they were hosting
- Comment on California Just Killed Open Source - YouTube 3 months ago:
Apart from the extruder, what parts of a 3D printer are not of the shelf electronics? It seems like a lot of folks are going to have their random electronics seized.
- Comment on California Just Killed Open Source - YouTube 3 months ago:
Won’t people just buy them from China?

I don’t have this issue. It sounds like Larry Page and Sergey Brin just don’t like you
- Comment on The old icons were better 4 months ago:
lol, the phone app was called dialler because at the time it didn’t make sense to have a phone app called phone.
- Comment on The Greeks actually won 4 months ago:
I get the joke but some folks won’t get it. OP should explain the joke for those folks who missed it
