Don't know why you were downvoted. There's clearly far too much detail, especially in all the individual hairs and the melting snowlflakes, for this to be a real painting.
Maybe it was digitally painted by tracing over the actual photo, but I doubt it.
Unfortunately, both this community and the shitposts community allow people to post whatever, per the community rules. This one has no rule about what a meme is, and shitposting explicitly allows whatever.
Considering there have already been news stories of AI chatbots telling users to kill themselves and feeding into suicidal ideation, it is absolutely not a reliable fact that the AI will not cause further harm.
Edit: It's also not just a problem with suicidal ideation. The founder of Business Insider recently wrote a post on his blog about "using AI to generate an AI news room cast". He openly admits to making comments to the female AI newscaster he created that would definitively be sexual harassment irl. The damn thing complimented him on his directness, reinforcing this creepy asshat being a sex pest to the point that he saw nothing wrong or embarassing about posting about this shit publicly.
There's been a decent amount of discussion online that when you are already in a relationship, you've been "vetted" so to speak. Obviously bullshit, as what your current partner may find acceptable can have jack to do with what anyone else finds acceptable. Also, if you have a break up, somehow you're no longer vetted because clearly you have some problems if you had a break up.
It's all pretty/petty bullshit but it's definitely a thing. Even my clueless ass has noticed it. Women are more comfortable around me now that I'm obviously taken (wedding ring). Not that they weren't before, but diving into deep/private conversation stuff at a far faster rate. Like I pride myself on being trustworthy and a good listener, but you gotta chill.
That increased comfort also includes more comfortable to make passes at me. No thanks, wife and I aren't looking for a third.
Only thing I could suggest is to make sure your DKIM and SPF stuff is set up right, but that only effects other email servers accepting mail from yours.
You just had to remind me of an ancient internet "shock" video where an amputee uses their ankle stump to "stump" the asshole of someone in a sex swing.
As prize, you get the knowledge that video exists.
Still can't believe corporate meddling robbed us of the cinematic masterpiece it was meant to be. Apparently authentic Sweedish music was too exotic for American audiences.
Yes, the price is the point. Excel (Office) is that dirt fucking cheap, industry standard, and comes with a bunch of other shit included that can be legitimate value add for a small business.
If you're at a firm that has legitimate need for specialized accounting software, you'll have enough money to get those. But even those generally export to Excel format. Without outing myself too much, I've had comsiderable exposure to financial tech over the last decade and less than 10 specialized accounting softwares I've seen couldn't export to Excel. All of those still exported to csv, or "software agnostic excel" if we want to bend things a bit.
The power of being industry standard for going on 30 years now cannot be overstated.
An OS is like a car or a machine in the sense that it needs regular maintenance. You can ignore that regular maintenance at your own peril, but it's not the car manufacturer's fault if you refuse to change the oil. Or if you decide to camber your tires out to a ridiculous angle and it breaks the wheel bearings.
Stepping back from your analogy, the only way that Windows is going to fail to play your game because you haven't updated is if the game needs to update too. And if it's that important to you, you can disable updates entirely and only re-enable them when it suits you. Only booting up Windows once a month is pretty damn good use case for that. Disable updates, play your game, re-enable them and let it do its thing when you're done.
Windows is definitely not ideal, but there is a lot of people spreading learned helplessness solely for the sake of pushing Linux. Linux is absolutely better, but Windows is not some festering boil that provides the sensory equivalent of nails on chalkboard if you use it correctly/as designed.
Another big thing people complain about is ads in the various system utilities. Hell yes that's disgusting. However, all of those ads are disabled by a single option in the settings menu that doesn't reset itself on update.
Colleges too. Ever wanted to hide behind the projector screen of a 300 seat lecture hall? None of the doors are locked. Found an old rotary telephone and a real film reel projector back there.
Had some wonderful desk chair races around the professor offices floor in one building at nearly midnight.
