True, and also more nukes in play is just bad overall

“Wheely tyred” then

Pakistan is one of nine states that possess nuclear weapons. Pakistan is not party to the Nuclear Non-Proliferation Treaty. Pakistan’s arsenal is estimated at 170 nuclear weapons as of 2025. -Wikipedia

Fun

Wait, is it inherently bad for an artist to self-insert? Isn’t that one of the key ways they share their perspective? If there’s some bizarre strawman-ing or self-aggrandizing going on it can problematic but the general idea of an artist self-inserting themselves or their ideas into their work seems fine to me.

This was the discussion on a recent post, which seems to be deleted now, about “AI” art on beer cans in the Mildly Infuriating community.

It’s really upsetting how much art is now seen as AI looking when AI art only looks that way cause it was trained on great art. Anything stylized, slightly sepia, realistically shaded, etc etc, automatically assumed to be AI when some people have trained decades to develop this style themselves, but now it’s just slop style

Looking at Gen-Z protests around the world, it’s kinda already started, though the success rate/level in each case may be an issue. But yeah, for the US specifically I’ve been amazed things haven’t really escalated to the same level yet outside of maybe Jan 6 and even that was running in the wrong direction

It sucks that so many art styles just seems AI now even though most likely AI art was trained on them to look that way. I have pictures I printed and laminated years ago for work related things and people have frequently insisted that they are AI… These give me the same vibe

Well, is it shifting left or right??

Think this is the full official winner’s gallery

One of my faves

Similar experience except it was disposable earplugs that stretched me out and left me sore after too many one night stands… Found a pair of nicely sized Loop earplug knockoffs that know how to treat me nice and gentle all night long so my hole stretching nights are happily behind me

Some kind of Indian dessert that was covered in gold leaf at a rich older family friends birthday. I had one out of curiosity but it didn’t add anything to the experience except sadness at the waste

And these scientists are sure as hell gonna work on answering them with that freaky deaky nose

They actually get into this in the other panels that aren’t posted. Having trouble finding non-reddit links to it though https://www.reddit.com/r/theotherendcomics/s/9X4C16J7yi

Also, not very experienced adding photos from my phone to comments but trying to attach screenshots

Good luck! Mint was my first distro too and still the one I use most, everything just works how I want and yeah, so much faster than Windows

Love that this is how I found out

Honestly, yeah.

So much media is very “of the moment” and built up through marketing. For whatever reason, a show, a song, a movie, a game, whatever, gets a lot of hype built up around it, but some time goes by and poof, no one cares. That’s part of what was in my head when I made this post. When given a bit of time and space from whatever circumstances of its initial release, what shows still stand out?

Well, the all metal casing makes the Pebble Time 2 feel pretty sturdy, and it is waterproof to 5 atm, but yeah, screen design seems to be a flaw, albeit one that people are already making simple bumper covers and such to fix.

For all those other points, yeah, Pebbles have been great for being able to actually read the screen all the time, get filtered notifications, and the buttons make music control way easier than any touch screen smart watch I’ve used. Pretty sure it isn’t capable of being a Bluetooth range extender though.
