This makes me doubt the author of the article’s credibility. What exactly is the “perfect resolution” of a hand painted piece of art?

High-enough that you can’t distinguish individual pixels with your eye. At least, that’s how Apple defines their retina displays; not sure if these guys are following the same standard for that terminology or not.

So… it’s a custom wrapper for Bluesky?

What exactly is wrong with them, in your opinion? A game I play uses a Discord forum channel for their bug reports, and it seems to support all the features I’d need out of a forum: sorting options (date posted vs most recent/“bumped” threads), search, chronological comments, tags, media support…

The only real issue I see with Discord forums is that they’re not public, so you can’t view them without having a Discord account and joining the server. But as far as functioning as a traditional web forum, they seem to check all the boxes.

Discord literally has forums. Most official game servers that I’ve seen tend to make use of them.

This sort of shit ought to be banned.

The children’s images were used by Meta after their parents had posted them on Instagram to mark their return to school.

STOP POSTING PICTURES OF YOUR CHILDREN ON THE INTERNET. Even IF Meta weren’t going to use the photos for advertising purposes, that shit is still public. Even if you set it to “friends only”, you don’t know everybody on your friend list as well as you’d like to think.

Shut the fuck up, Elon. We’ll be celebrating your death, as well.

Elon tried to get CDPR to add him as a character in Cyberpunk 2077, not realizing that he’s literally Saburo Arasaka.

I hope her death is slow, agonizing, and humiliating.

Right, but the current colloquial usage of the word, especially in the context of digitally-manipulated images, is AI-centered. People aren’t using the word “slop” to describe bad photoshops, they’re using it to describe bad AI-gen.

And thus, the word “slop” begins losing meaning.

Sure. But this doesn’t look like AI in the first place. It looks more like a Maya render, if anything.

Rude thing to say about something somebody took the time and made, IMO. Especially considering that there’s literally nothing wrong with the images we’re even talking about. The pictures are just fine.

This is reminding me of people being critical of artists for using Photoshop.

This word is losing meaning the more it’s used for things that aren’t even AI.

Engagement bait. YouTube’s algorithm loves it when viewers do things like leave comments or likes. And responding to polls like this counts toward that engagement metric, no matter how shallow the content is.

The other party is nazis. Not metaphorical nazis, literal nazis. Sorry, but that’s where the bar is set right now.

While it hasn’t yet specified whether this means prices will decrease or increase

Dangerous headline, especially for reporting on such a notoriously litigious company.

Bristles can break off and get swallowed without ever being noticed. I’m sure that the average person consumes a non-zero amount of toothbrush throughout their lifetime. So yes, we’re eating toothbrushes.

Same dude who got temp-banned from Twitch for actively calling for the literal genocide of Palestinians. Asmon is a piece of shit.

I see nothing racist or xenophobic here.

Look at the examples he provides. Do Germans or Poles speak English moreso than Africans? Do Germans or Poles share foreign (American) values moreso than Africans? Why would Germans or Poles integrate into American culture moreso than Africans?
