This is a moot argument. You’re saying the system doesn’t support artists and that artists shouldn’t expect it to. Why not? Why can’t the system be changed? Streams should not be equivalent to tweets and it’s dumb to think they should be.
Yeah and there are tons of angles and gestures for human subjects that AI just can’t figure out still. Any time I’ve seen a “stunning” AI render it’s some giant FOV painting with no real subject or the subject takes up a 12th of the canvas.
All of the Virtute The Cat songs by The Weakerthans, but Virtute The Cat Explains Her Departure in particular will make me tear up any time I hear it.

Exactly. Even if the impacts of the national economy were felt among the average voter most presidents shouldn’t actually influence the market much at all anyway. Trumps solitary mission in office was to loosen regulations on corpos though so he, in fact, did help the economy to the detriment of pretty much everything else. It’s an idiotic metric, countries aren’t businesses and saying “profit levels are down 18% :(” is meaningless when profit levels have been steadily ascending to disgusting heights for decades.
He’s saying that by saying “if we make an exception for you we have to make an exception for everyone” you are not even entertaining the notion that the person you make an exception for just keeps it a secret.
It’s a weird kind of thing because if he had bailed out on his charges then he would be waiting for court proceedings and couldn’t be touched but he didn’t bail out he was released, so the trial had concluded and he had been serving his sentence and was then released conditionally by this magistrate judge only to be picked up again? Technically the warrant itself does fly but I don’t see how the charges stick when he has already been tried for them. I assume there isnt any new evidence or new counts but perhaps I’m wrong. Sometimes people can be reprosecuted if it’s determined that the original trial was somehow faulty but usually not so quickly as they have to gather a case for retrial together. So basically this is really weird.
This is now the 4th time they’re trying? Give it up already…
They “supported” a bill that they immediately circumvented, yeah. They had no interest in protecting right to repair they just wanted the PR. It should surprise no one that they’re opposed to actual bills that force them to alter their business practices.
These companies tend to own or have long term leases, so either they are stuck paying rent and have to justify the expense or they own an asset that is depreciating in value and they could stop that from happening by spending no money to force their employees back into the office. You have to think about the big money, too. Real estate is a cornerstone asset for big money, many banks and real estate empires hold these enormous office buildings and society trending towards WFH means those buildings are rapidly losing their value.
I’m having lobster tail, mushie peas and unclel Ben’s rice. It’s not the most elaborate meal but it’s comforting and delicious.
In the US most do not own a kettle
Ah, there’s the rub. Thanks I was having a hard time figuring this one out.
This red panda thing is bolognium. Like I know the pandas are called Fire Foxes colloquially but the company themselves have said the icon is a fox. Because it is clearly a fox. These days the site is saying that Red Pandas “could be” an “unofficial” mascot for Firefox. That’s nothing.
Super common thing I’m seeing recently among cons, complete dismissal of any article not from the right sources. You see how this makes you much easier to manipulate right? Read everything.
Was just coming to say this. Googles apps are an enormous pain in the ass to get rid of.
I worked with a rich ranch girl at a Restaurant once, she was 17 maybe just doing the summer serving with us, and I was playing music and taking requests and I asked her what she liked and she said “none of it I hate Music.” I said “what do you do in the car?” she said “listen to talk radio or podcasts” and this just… Baffled me. She was not good at her job but after she told me that I couldn’t help but feel a bit bad for her.
Get it’s ass in gear? Apple has been actively fighting RtR and expandability in every way and only ‘supported’ the last RtR bill in Cali because they already had a circumvention in place using versioning. This is the exact same thing, PR gets to say they’re carbon neutral while they pump the exact same amount of CO2 into the air each year. It’s not just bad practice it’s deceitful.
Lmao seems like you might be?
That’s somewhat true but christian colleges are often unwilling to look into scientific pursuits that may damage their faith’s view on the sciences. They have made contributions, but are always limited in their scope and often publish inaccurate studies supporting their particular world view.
Depends on where you live too. I can see the northern lights where I’m at pretty regularly anyway but last night they went all kinds of crazy.
