Does anyone have any dehumidifier recommendations? Brands?

Need a new one, and was hoping to get something during the sales this week…

Another company is ruining its history with AI

For me, the issue here is how close we are to getting this spot on! It won't be long before we reach an unrecognizable state, and every historical picture will have a layer of "AI gloss" over it.

Authenticity will become a thing of the past

Restarted it this morning. Seriously at a crawl, with a one minute video going at a fraction of speed of the 7 minute Toonami upload.

Um, ICE just coldly shot an unarmed PRIEST in the head w a pepper ball when he (and everyone around him) clearly posed no threat.

For the crime of … complaining about government policy.

Core 1A speech.

With cameras rolling, they’re sniping priests for sport.

How come nobody ever talks about how different the final season is from the previous ones?

It basically was a soft relaunch.

Just either completes the upload but never starts processing/won’t let me save, and when trying again, it simply never wants to progress OR the speed comes off as ridiculous.

I feel like this photo of masked, armed men pepper spraying a pastor protecting his community is going to be a defining picture of this moment in America for a long, long time.

Completed a new video just for YouTube to simply not want me to upload it.

So... wait.

Disney XD is airing a new toku series? Apparently, they are. A show called Armorsaurs that's based on a Korean toku series called Armored Saurus that JUST barely passes the sniff test from Toei.

Also... there's still a Disney XD?

Just realized that the new HERO SQUARED COMPLETE COLLECTION is out this week from @boom-studios.com! This is the only creator-owned series Keith Giffen and I did together and it may just be my favorite Giffen-DeMatteis production.

Just casually noting that Yoshitaka Amano is very litigious and that any books using his artwork may want to clear every single right with him before going to print because it could end poorly if a bunch of folks made his company aware of unlicensed image usage.

For every €1 provided through a Basic Income For Artists pilot program in Ireland, the government got €1.46 back. So it’s being made permanent.

Over and over we see it. It saves public money to provide public housing. And it makes public money to provide basic income.

We can’t afford to NOT do it.

Mike Sowden @mikeachim.bsky.social · 1d

Damn. This is amazing. £325 per week, paid monthly, for 3 years - and the result was a profit for the Irish economy:
www.citizensinformation.ie/en/employmen...

Post from Threads user rodneyowl: "Ireland has declared the Basic Income for Artists scheme permanent. This will be officially announced in tomorrow’s budget. Details to follow. Congratulations to all who fought for it and the present and future artists of all sorts in Ireland. That includes me 👌We’re just comin to the end of a 3 year pilot scheme. It’s been a roaring success. For every €1 paid out to the 2000 participants, the government got €1.46 back. Can’t argue with that. Other countries are already taking note."
