AI takes production out of the hands of corporations like Disney and into the hands of the people. You need a shit ton of money to hire hundreds of artists.
For me it means I can do something myself instead of needing help which I won't get because I am not going to pay someone to do it. So instead of making my own web series I've passed up on the idea. Now I can because the mental and creative blocks I had have been resolved by talking to an AI that will help me develop the look of my character.
As an artist I've been loving bing to help me model and design characters based on my descriptions. I'm good at knowing what I want and good at drawing and sculpting but the middle step is what I have trouble with.
I've managed to create several new characters I've always wanted to and even put them in different poses and lighting and angles. It's freaking awesome!
I got a 30 dollar pair of knockoff ipods for my Samsung and the audio quality is better than the wired akg buds it came with. They also sell for less now. No issues with battery life and the case has a battery level display. They also can be wirelessly charged. They're my favorites.
I'm glad battery backup can keep the internet going for a long time but I also have data to use and never get close to making a dent in it.
If service providers went down though I do have several radios around the house. I don't go anywhere but I'd I did i would carry a little radio lol. That being said, I miss my smart phone and flip phone that had radio on it. I don't care about headphone jacks but I definitely would love radio.
They would fail. I have many ways to corroborate and they know I don't answer the phone and to call 911. Nobody is calling me in a emergency ever. I don't drive, I don't give money to anyone etc...
People need to have the policy of if you can make a call and it's an emergency then call 911. Also always have roadside assistance.
There seems to be so much of that on here. Really hope to see more moderation preventing all that bad faith fake LGBT assholes from posting shit especially when they're pushing nambla trash.
What's horrifying is the amount of pedo apologists on some lemmy instances. They screech that as long as they aren't touching kids they're free to be attracted to kids because it's not hurting anyone. Anyone that looks at a kid and thinks sexual thoughts already crossed a line and should never be allowed access to children or the internet. Horrifying. Pedo is not a sexual orientation.
AI sure makes vegeta very veiny ahahaha!
