Now that's hardly fair! There's a 9 month-ish period where the child doesn't need food, health care, or education, but CAN be used as an excuse to control women's bodies. During that period they are willing to grant them more rights than anyone. The moment they breath, though...
Chevron gas prices down the street from my home. $6.199 regular $6.399 plus $6.599 supreme
I keep hearing horrified news stories that gas might reach an average of $4.00 a gallon.

You're all thinking of Malcolm-Jamal Warner (Theo). This is Geoffrey Owens (Elvin)
I made a papercraft just for this

It had to, or you'd never be able to finish some of the games! I spent the majority of my time with it tethered to a wall.
I remember talking to someone who had worked in this area for a while. They said that the biggest problem they faced was not in producing various scents, which they described as tricky but tractable. The real problem was getting the scents to go away when you needed them to. (Scent ghosting! 👻)
It was a lovable little brick, but most kids would have been better off getting a Gameboy. This thing got approximately 3 hours of game time out of 6 AA batteries. 🤪 I recall estimating once that it cost about $0.10 a minute to play it without a power adapter.

I'm jealous of kids who had such cute, portable handhelds growing up. You could literally put that in your pocket! I, on the other hand, had the Battery Eater 3000XL
No, see, you have to think of economies of scale. I mean, can you imagine what would happen if EVERYONE gave them money and then just left it there? Eventually they might have to buy a bigger SSD to hold all the SQL entries.
Hoppers. Surprising number of characters murdered on screen. Also a surprisingly large number of attempted murders. 🦫
New consumer trust report came out. 78% of Gen Z can identify AI generated images and will scroll past them. Been running ads for an apparel brand targeting 18 to 25 year olds. Our CTR dropped 40% after we switched to AI generated lifestyle shots. The images looked fine to me. Models wearing the clothes, decent lighting, no obvious errors. But apparently Gen Z can tell. Went back to real product photos and performance recovered. Not fully but better than the AI stuff. The report mentioned things like lighting inconsistencies and unnatural shadows. Stuff that's not obvious unless you're looking for it. AI images probably work for some audiences but not others. Older demographics might not notice or care as much. Edit: for graphics and layouts i use X-Design since you control the inputs. But for photography targeting younger audiences, real still wins.
Lol, the kids are alright
Pro tip for people using AI to mass-file "security bugs" against open source projects: If the first step of your repro is "Launch program with the --turn_off_all_security_features flag" your bot did not discover a security bug. 🤬
I'm Deuteranomalia. The top two images look almost identical to me. I know the color order, but that's mostly because it's relevant to my work. :)
In fairness to 3D printing enthusiasts, they're at least useful for prototypes and one-off parts. And they're not known for mass-producing non-consensual nudes.
Sorry everyone else, it's time to pack it up and go home. This one wins the meme.
Also, I saw one person looking at an AI-upscaled frame of a video and pointing out hallucinated details as proof that the video was fake and I just can't. 😫
I've seen a lot of people analyzing video recently to determine if it's AI or not, and I am BEGGING them to learn what compression artifacts are.
A screenshot showing three views of the same scene of a rock surrounded by some grass. The first is labeled "DLSS 4" and shows some slightly blurry foliage and missing details on the rock surface. The second is labeled "DLSS 4.5" and shows improved sharpness on the same scene with better detail on the grass and rocks. The last is labeled "DLSS 5" and all of the grass has been replaced by clover because they're both green ground cover, who's gonna notice the difference? Also the rock has been given smokey eyes and pouty lips to better appeal to 15 year old boys.
I don't know what you're all complaining about. These DLSS 5 screenshots look fine!
Feels like when Square Enix made the Final Fantasy MMOs numbered entries in the series.
Except the MMOs didn't also gleefully give the finger to artists and rendering engineers.
A nighthawk with it's mouth open. No, like... REALLY open.
I- I'm sorry for doubting you. Even with warning, I did not envision far enough back.
Or Apple = K, take your pick!
Qualcomm = C
ARM = M
Imagination = Y
Swiftshader = K 😁

You know what, spam email? I'm not even mad. I admire your confidence!

I don't see those posts if I go to twitter at the moment (not signed in cause I don't have an account anymore, doubt that matters.) It's clear from the older posts, though, that this account isn't run by the WebGPU team. It's mostly political.
There's a WebGPU bot on Twitter? I don't think anyone on our team manages anything like that.
