@RehnSturm256 @Terry @johnnyappleseed cc @retarded according to sjw user registrations had been locked down for a while so i'm inclined to think that it is more likely an established user than someone just trying to get them shut down. if it was, they have been playing the long game. i don't know how long they were locked down or how long that account was around so that would maybe change my mind if we found out that information.

i can't remember, was it kiwifarms or 4chan that doxxed that dude and they had parties on his lawn and threw rocks through his windows and shit? or what about jumping ethan ralph? either way, this kind of people already have set a precedent for taking online threats or jokes to the real world and then celebrating it so it would not surprise me in the slightest if it was real tbh. i'm not saying it is because who the fuck knows for sure, but the fact that it could be is IMO reason enough to cut that kind of stuff away from your business.

especially if there is the potential for crossfire like a bomb in a building full of innocents. i'm not protecting that kind of depravity.

i feel bad for people who use kiwifarms as a means to talk with others without having their speech restricted but there are just unfortunately way too many dumb fucks there for me to give them the benefit of the doubt. if news comes out otherwise i'll GLADLY eat my words. there are times we all want it to be a glowie but i personally don't think this is one of those cases.

Reminder: if you have made a comic strip, even a single one, you can send it to me if you want and i will add it to the database of comicbot.

@rlier23 @Terry josh seems like a genuinely good dude but unfortunately the people on his website are fucking retarded.

it's similar to why gameliberty had to shut down account creation, too many retards joining and being a pain in the dick hole.

Wikipedia wants to delete "Mass killings under communist regimes." imagine my shock

Commies have infested Wikipedia for years

@famardy "back the blue no matter who" people shaking in their boots rn

@gingermilk i get stuck in between being motivated to work on something and being motivated to play a video game, so i end up doing neither

@famardy what the fuck are the police in texas even for at this point

kiwifarms as a website should be allowed to exist but i really don't like the people or the culture there so i can't say i'm particularly sad cuckflare decided to drop them (after someone threatened an assassination no less).

I'm gonna come forward and say that if you really feel threatened and angry by AI art, and you feel like your artistic endeavor is put at stake by it, you are gonna be the first to fall by it.

Even if you look at the best images put out by AI, like the one that won that art contest the other day, like i said at one point at much is wallpaper-grade art and nothing else. Yeah, it looks aesthetically pleasing and it's filled with intrincate detail, but if you look really closely it's meaningless detail, there's no direction, there's no purpose, it's detail just to make an "overall" piece look good.

Examples, the first two images are created by AI, and the other two are created by actual human beings.

Only a human, and a GOOD artist can put meaningful detail in a piece and have it a deeper meaning, not as an "overall" image but as something more intrincate and with more purpose.

Now, I'm gonna say this is not a Anti-AI art rant. I think AI art, used properly, is gonna be the best friend of a good artist. Like an exosqueleton can augment the physical abilities of an human being, AI can augment the creativity powers of a good artist, by giving you a good starting point to create something on your own way. A lot of times you know you have a "nice base idea" for a good art piece, and AI can help you develop this starting idea faster and help you through the rest of the art process.

TL;DR;
If you feel threatened by AI prompt machine, step up your game, do things for passion, not for money.

I really hate it that environmentalists completely forgot about the 3 Rs and went straight for: eat the bugs and drive electric cars (but not really cause we've sabotaged the electric grid).

@alyx I've never seen macross but it looks cool. I only know it because there's a musician called macross 82-99 I like.

@milk activate windows in the bottom right ruins the whole thing
