Nobody's pointing a gun. You can go back to making readme's and hosting perpetual 12 hour 1-on-1's if you want

Self taught artist, and I learned by copying my favorite comic books and painters.

Went to art school and a significant part of my art history class dealt in remembering the name of art "movements" which is a veiled way of saying a period when everyone was copying each other. Then of course you learn about the influential artists who heavily borrowed from xyz. Another funny one is "revival" which just means "straight up copy"

This is why I have limited sympathy for the uproar about AI art. It's just cutting through the boring part.

Is nobody going to point out that 404media's business model profits on shutting down early stage tech companies with content moderation problems

Its not like Civitai is openly or willingly involved in any of the above

Probably aligns closer to the default onboarding package, rather than comparatively to this new layoffs package. Otherwise it makes no sense to me

Either way, I'm more curious about those airtight NDAs on the way out

Wow, lots of shelfers. Only two people in here talking about Raw Data, really?

The games are starting to mature beyond games. I would never part with mine because to me it's the cheapest/fastest form of travel. I look for content daily and try to test something new every night. Of course, I'm an aspiring VR developer.

Since nobody's talking about porn, please allow this burner account to speak up for it. I'm talking room-scale VR, not 360 videos. It does take a lot of digging and tinkering since that stuff is not on Steam, but if you know where to go on subreddits, torrents, etc. Try it for science, it's fantastic.

It's not a clear camera though like we were led to believe. Unlike your phone camera, it draws the room in weird wiggles in black and white. It also creates a performance impact so most people prefer to brave without it.
