Makes sense and seems to be true for many cases.

I’d add tho that I unfortunately met some folks in my life that I’d like to unmeet, and from what I’ve perceived - people doing scams are also far from being sharpest tools in the shed.

Not to mention that back when scam calls on the phone were still quite common - wasting time of those guys was one of the funniest things to do. Like, at some point that person should’ve realised I’m shitting them, just have to make them move off the script and watch them come up with bullshit that truly reflects that person’s stupidity.

Bruh. I immediately noticed so many scams back in the day simply because those were poorly composed with grammar errors.

Kinda fits into the whole image of who’d be doing scams anyway tho - some barely literate shits looking for “easy money”.

Yup. And yeah - it’s not like USSR didn’t have plastic - it simply wasn’t used for bags and bottles.

From where I’m from plastic was kind of luxury until 90’s and that’s one of very few things from that country that would be great to bring back.

Inatead of cellophane bags there were netting bags or paper ones, bottles were all glass that got collected, sent back to factories to be washed and refillled. If one got their hands on plastic bag or bottle, probably somehow smuggled from the West - it was a goddamn status symbol from then on, and you don’t throw your status symbol away. 🌝

I’m not as anti-AI as some folks on here tho, especially since LM-Studio is a thing with assortment of models to run locally. Probably would have few psychotic breaks by now from loads of paperwork I have all the time if not for these models.

But I draw the line at creative work. If half of the workflow is vibe-something - then it loses the creative part. Not to mention that with 3D modelling specifically (what interests me personally) it’s just an illusion of going faster - one will just waste a lot of time fixing and remeshing mess that AI gave out.

So it’s been few times actually with different tutorials - but mostly 3D modelling and CAD as it’s what interests me personally.

But to be honest - what prompted me to make this meme was actually a sponsored segment for generative AI service in a otherwise non-AI video.

I would argue that both liberalism and leftism are spectrums and parts of them overlap, so it’s not like one ≠ other. After all, any participation in democratic process means going reforms and regulations way, even if the endpoint is abolishing capitalism, which would be a logical goal for democratic socialism, for example.

Also wrote a lot of books, including one about healing properties of tea.

I wouldn’t consider folks from .ml to be dangerous tho - they are simply a book club that is being mean to people on internet.

Right-wingers, who don’t touch grass, on the other hand, are far more dangerous - just remember QAnon, this shit was started by some 4chan troll.

White car order was issued by Turkmenistan’s current dictator tho, Berdimuhamedow. And he managed to become even worse than Niyazov in terms of personality cult and clown laws.

Some photos of him have really awkwardly positioned computers - like no way anyone works like that. Hence why some choose to believe him to be a complete luddite.

I’m lucky to have colleagues that understand that doing things with AI, that are supposed to reach some audience, will feel low effort to said audience. Like, if I’m tryna sell someone my shit I better not half-ass advertising. Not to mention broken telephone game of me explaining stuff to AI for AI to explain it to potential clientele.

Just don’t ask them why Stalin, who first got the idea of calling socdems “social fascists” and declaring them to be the enemy, was so cozy with actual nazis up until 1941. 🌝

Yeah, but that sounds quite liberal, and things “liberal” are a big no-no on this website 🗿(even if we’re talking socdems or demsocs).
