AlicePraxis [any]@hexbear.netto marxism@hexbear.net•Joseph Stalin "Real liberty can exist only where exploitation has been abolished." - New General Megathread for the 17th to 18th of December 2023English7·2 years agoit really speaks to the failure of grade school art education that most people still think the primary colors are red, yellow, and blue
every youtube video that correctly teaches the primary colors as cyan, magenta, and yellow (for subtractive color mixing in traditional art) or red, green, and blue (for additive color mixing in digital art) - you will get idiots in the comments “correcting” them saying NO ACTUALLY THE PRIMARY COLORS ARE RED YELLOW AND BLUE I LEARNED IT IN THE 2ND GRADE SO IT MUST BE TRUE

AlicePraxis [any]@hexbear.netto marxism@hexbear.net•Friedrich Engels - New General Megathread for the 27th to 28th of November 2023English4·2 years agoit wouldn’t surprise me if craiyon blacklists certain names, but AI art generators just aren’t necessarily that good at generating a particular person. it might work if the person is very famous and thus has a lot of photos online. I haven’t used craiyon/DALL-E but I’ve used stable diffusion and it had a hard time even with some famous actors. often you have to use models that are specifically trained on images of that person to get good results
craiyon’s training images were probably scraped a couple years ago, before Santos was a well-known public figure so there were probably a lot less photos of him back then. it’s also likely to pick up images tagged with just “George” or just “Santos”, which are both common names. wouldn’t be as much of a problem with, say, Benedict Cumberbatch
AlicePraxis [any]@hexbear.netto marxism@hexbear.net•Friedrich Engels - New General Megathread for the 27th to 28th of November 2023English11·2 years agoa lot of misanthropes never had any good people in their lives. Loneliness sucks, but being surrounded by awful people sucks worse, and can feel even lonelier than actually being alone
Misanthropy is a trap though because that mindset makes it practically impossible to find the good people
AlicePraxis [any]@hexbear.netto marxism@hexbear.net•Friedrich Engels - New General Megathread for the 27th to 28th of November 2023English4·2 years agothe greek letter Tau, which is used to represent the ratio of a circle’s circumference to its radius. it’s equal to 2*pi or roughly 6.28
the use of this constant is a much more recent development, with many arguing that we should express equations in terms of τ instead of π, since it makes more sense to think of circles in terms of their radius than in terms of their diameter
AOC is like 34, and a congresswoman. besides what does responsibility have to do with “purity tests”? having a job and a mortgage means you have to support genocide?
