With your current phone, go ahead and take two pictures - one normal, the other a picture of a picture of that thing
Now look at the two, and tell me you can’t tell in a split second that one is a picture of a picture. There’s a reason that it’s a running joke on the internet that people need to learn to take real screenshot instead of taking a picture of the monitor - there’s always annoying and obvious artifacts.
Yeah and while I’m sure it is useful for minimizing outrage at controversial changes, it’s mainly to prevent rolling out major bugs to too many people
boarding first isn’t a privilege really
It is on southwest, since there’s no unassigned boarding. I’m a tall dude, and I always pay for early boarding so I can get myself an emergency row seat
Yeah, popular music - by definition - is going to have a broad appeal, and pointing out major problems with our society is always going to be at least a bit divisive, especially when the issue is split in party lines
Sounds like fusion power lol
Onshape is also good, the free version has all the functionality you could want unless having private models is important to you
The way it sounds right now is “AI generated faces don’t have all these artifacts 99% of the time” (I’m paraphrasing A LOT, but you get what I mean.)
The only way it sounds like that is if you don’t read the article at all and draw all your conclusions from just reading the title.
Don’t get me wrong, I’m sure many do just that, but that’s not the fault of the study. They clearly state their method for selecting (or “cherry picking”) images
I don’t know why people (not saying you, more directed at the top commenter) keep acting like cherry picking AI images in these studies invalidate the results - cherry picking is how you use AI image generation tools, that’s why most will (or can) generate several at once so you can pick the best one. If a malicious actor was trying to fool people, of course they’d use the most “real” looking ones, instead of just the first to generate
Frankly the studies would be useless if they didn’t cherry pick, because it wouldn’t line up with real world usage
Yeah, I agree it’s pretty cringy, but I don’t see how anyone else is negatively impacted by some lonely souls using it
What’s the benefit of a cruise ship when planes are so much faster?
Its not always about purely practical concerns
I too would like context on that comment lol
Hulu is currently the only streaming service I still pay for, and that’s mainly because TV shows are a removed to pirate (disk space and download times being the main annoyance), but it won’t take more than one or two more price hikes for the balance to shift so that it’s worth the effort to just go full pirate instead of forking out so much cash.
The fact that Disney just fully bought Hulu bodes very poorly too - I’ll bet anything that it’s going to get folded into Disney+ soon as a “pay an extra 15/month to access Hulu content, but only through your Disney+ membership sort of deal”
Interesting that you run into those issues, I’ve had it for years and handedly had to manual reconcile more than once or twice early on, certainly not in the last few years
Good news is, no one is making you use it!
In fairness to multicolor printing in general, he couldn’t have picked a worse multicolor model for generating waste. You want to optimize for as few color changes as possible. Just the other day I printed some pokeballs in full color and it was (iirc) around a 0.4:1 waste:print ratio - which is still a fair bit of waste, but nothing like 2.5, thanks to the fact that the colors are layered.
Gradients are the absolute worst thing for multicolor printing, this printer was probably doing 3-6 color switches per layer
I’ll check it out! Thanks
That’s interesting, the Bambu slicer actually does let you control how much, if at all, you purge during switches - I might try just setting it to 0 and seeing what I end up with…
The Bambu slicer does offer such a thing, the results vary depending on the colors in question though, if the color it’s purging is black, and most of the print is white, then the black that gets flushed into the infill is going to be pretty visible under the white outer walls. This can be mitigated by thicker walls, and ofc its less of an issue when dealing with colors of different, but similar, shades
I’ve found that the best way to reduce multicolor waste is to try and setup your model in the first place so that it uses the smallest number of color changes possible, but ofc whether or not you have much control over that will depend largely on the model in question
The only work you manually have to do is approve transactions that have been auto imported for you - and that’s absolutely a feature, not a bug
You can print Legos - but it’s not really a good reason to buy one. They’re very slow to print due to the precision required and the materials that work best for them are all hard to print
That being said, there are tons of printable projects that scratch the same itch! Printable had a contest just last month for card kit models!
Except smart phone cameras will also improve - if anything, I’d say that over the last decade, the average smart phone camera has improved at a much faster rate than your average computer monitor.
Combine what I said with all the other Metadata that will be collected, and I’m quite skeptical that you could fool an actual professional with your scheme.
