You’re downvoted but you’re right. AI slop will never replace the world’s best musicians, artists, writers or actors-but it can definitely replace entry level, unimaginative, stock-footage type stuff. And then the creative arts die from the bottom up. In a few decades the artistic world might look a lot more like how it did centuries ago, with the content makers largely being privileged and connected people because it’s so much harder to work your way up from the bottom.

They are mean but I like them and hornets because they kill pests. As long as they’re not making nests in my yard yellow jackets are cool with me.
Bald-faced hornets have a really bad reputation but I had a nest under my roof overhang and they were awesome. Built a beautiful hive and never gave me any trouble even when I walked right below them. There were a couple days last year where invasive June bugs were swarming around my house and I saw a hornet snatch one right out of the air which was pretty badass.

Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•My therapist says she might have to report my abusive family to the authorities. How do I avoid being reported so the cops don't show up and make everything worse?
12·19 days agoYeah suing his therapist is NOT what op needs to be doing here

Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•What's an objectively terrible movie that you love anyway?
7·22 days agoThey really had something there with Margot Robbie as Harley Quinn. The aesthetic of the movie is cool, I didn’t hate watching it in theaters even though it’s pretty dumb.
Illegal take but I actually do like smart TVs. Unless you never use any streaming services, it’s a useful feature that would otherwise require an external device to do the same thing. Now if you have your own home server or something, that’s cool too, but that’s more hassle than I want to deal with.

Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•What are the fastest moving objects with some mass in everyday life?
8·1 month agoHmm how about CRT monitors/televisions? Not that common these days but they are basically little particle accelerators that shoot electrons at a pretty good fraction of the speed of light (like 30%). But I guess that’s not really an answer to you question unless you define electrons as objects. I guess my other answer would be airbags which deploy at about 300 kmph
Haha just reading your comment cou
Yeahhh I remember we had this dying tomato plant in the garden but for some reason I was attached to it, and I told my mom she didn’t need to replace it and it would get better on its own. And then I went back to the garden later and it looked really healthy, good as new!
Funny, I just watched a YouTube video about this guy and his cats. Seems like while he was a sweet guy he was probably lying about his cats age. Like, he claimed to have the pedigree papers but never actually showed them to anyone? And then after the cat died he said “oh my bad I told you guys the wrong age, he was actually [record setting age] the whole time”

Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•What wisdom from someone else has stuck with you?
15·2 months ago“Like your job. Love your wife.” - Dell from Trains, Planes, and Automobiles. You can generalize that to say, your job is just a means to an end. Don’t work a job you hate, but look elsewhere for true fulfillment in life.

Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•So apparently full stops in texts are 'passive agressive' now. What other unwritten rules for texting have changed over the last couple of decades?
9·2 months agoUpside down smiley is used as like a smile-through-the-pain, everything is fucked kind of reaction, similar to melty smiley. Similarly the blushing smiley is usually deployed ironically. Or maybe my friends are just really sarcastic haha

Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•Where does the drive to do anything come from?
2·2 months agoDepends on the thing and the mood I’m in. Sometimes I just have to be pragmatic - my life will be better in the long run if I do this because I’ll keep my job, my house will be clean, etc. Sometimes the thing I’m doing is just really fun. Sometimes it’s fun to just check boxes, like your completing tasks in a videogame. And finally, once you’ve established a habit like exercise or stretching or learning a language, it just feels wrong to not do it every day.

Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•Is entertainment getting worse or am I getting old?
31·2 months agoEveryone knows 67 = basketball star Lamelo Ball’s height (6’ 7"). It’s a reference to a song that talks about that. It’s now just a silly in-joke reaction to hearing/seeing the numbers 6 and 7, literally the exact same thing as millenials and 69.
Well not everyone knows that I guess - just everyone cool!
Also how weird is it that 2 of the biggest memes of the past decade - the dab and 67 -are both made famous by sports stars based in my hometown of Charlotte, NC (not exactly a cultural mecca)

Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•What YouTube channel to you has degraded in time?
2·3 months agoOk, well I wouldn’t call that “grift” to be honest. The video you linked repeatedly says “Sabine is not a charlatan”. I do think she leans into science controversy a bit more than she should, and branches out from where she’s an expert, but those are less serious “crimes”. I also think her gripes about academia are not completely without warrant and I can’t blame her for acquiring a following of people that are trying to use her criticisms to further their own phony conspiracies.

1·3 months agoI used to subscribe to her a couple years ago but stopped. What do you mean by grift?
We’ll see I suppose. I will add, though, that exclusive games absolutely do drive people to Xbox or Playstation (or Nintendo). Not a deal-breaker for most people, but a factor for some people.
