It also misses a HUGE opportunity for dev whimsy.
I remember working on Magic: Duels and badly photoshopping tropical print shirts onto placeholder planeswalkers key art while waiting for the full-res files to come in. Because, y'know, we wanted it to be VERY OBVIOUS it wasn't final

Stop using AI for placeholder assets.
Use sketches. Use lorem ipsum. Use bright pink materials. Use programmer art for fucks sake, literally anything else.
If your studio is using AI even for temp, even if they think they've covered their tracks, SPEAK UP because people WILL FIND IT

Sure! Mastercard, Visa, Stripe + Paypal are further restricting what kinds of perfectly legal adult content you can buy through their processor (they cracked down on itchio and steam over the summer, not to mention Patreon a few years ago). We're tired of them acting like dictators instead of tools.
I don’t happen to have a Mastercard, but can you remind me why I’d be upset with them if I did?

I can't wait for them to try to explain how they'll suddenly repurpose all these half-built conventional data centers to quantum computing, which is like trying to convert a teddy bear to diesel.
All I want for Christmas is the GenAI bubble to pop so we can move onto the next tech bro scam.
Maybe some socks too

Kjøpe alle kosedioramaspillene og bruke kvelden til å synes synd på meg selv, eller bruke dette merkelig høye energinivået til å jobbe litt. Dette er seriøst et vanskelig valg

Hodet føles dobbelt så stort som vanlig, jeg drypper fra et upraktisk antall kroppsåpninger, temperaturen både innvendig og utvendig er både for høy og for lav til enhver tid … og jeg har mer energi enn jeg har hatt på lenge. Hva er dette for slags mobbing

Using genAI alienates you from everyone else. It doesn't democratize art, it atomizes it.
No genAI user is gonna get an outpouring of sincere support from others because even they themselves don't give a fuck about what they're making.

My even more unpopular opinion is unless you have personally experienced the thing, you should probably refrain from having an opinion on it.
We need to return to shaming people for parroting YouTube/TikTok with stuff like "When I want your opinion, I'll just find the YouTuber who gave it to you."

Dette høres veldig likt ut som "Jeg kjenner flere uføre som kunne vært i jobb, de bare jukser", altså

Da har jeg laget ferdig kalenderen med fugle- og dyrebilder fra Nordvestlandet (+et fra høyfjellet)
Dette føles veldig flaut og kleint, men tenkte jeg skulle høre om noen kunne være interessert i å kjøpe
Legger ved noen eksempelbilder (det siste er alle bildene som er med, men annet utsnitt->

Er det noen i sykkelskya som kan hjelpe meg. Jeg skal lage vindusdekor til Whee! og trenger 4 så store sykkelhjul som mulig. Lette er bra. Defekte er topp. Er det noen MTB-folk der ute som har noe liggende?

Den minst sjokkerende nyheten på lenge.
De snylter på fellesskapet: Norske skatteflyktninger er tatt for juks.
26 utflyttere straffes etter brudd
I det stille har Skatteetaten utført kontroll av norske utflyttere. Resultatet er oppsiktsvekkende.
