It's the dunk tank.

This is where you come to post big-brained hot takes by chuds, libs, or even fellow leftists, and tear them to itty-bitty pieces with precision dunkstrikes.

Rule 1: All posts must include links to the subject matter, and no identifying information should be redacted.

Rule 2: If your source is a reactionary website, please use archive.is instead of linking directly.

Rule 3: No sectarianism.

Rule 4: TERF/SWERFs Not Welcome

Rule 5: No ableism of any kind (that includes stuff like libt*rd)

Rule 6: Do not post fellow hexbears.

Rule 7: Do not individually target other instances' admins or moderators.

Rule 8: The subject of a post cannot be low hanging fruit, that is comments/posts made by a private person that have low amount of upvotes/likes/views. Comments/Posts made on other instances that are accessible from hexbear are an exception to this. Posts that do not meet this requirement can be posted to !shitreactionariessay@lemmygrad.ml

Rule 9: if you post ironic rage bait im going to make a personal visit to your house to make sure you never make this mistake again

Love too smoke through a respirator.

Also lmao at how jarring the inpainted giant tits are because the lighting is all kinds of fucked up.

And I mean it's good that open source models that run on consumer hardware are holding their own, but goddamn if 90+% of the SD community shouldn't be locked up. volcel-judge

like AI really shines when you embrace its uncanny, psychedelic nature. it's really good when you know where to dictate specification and where to let the machine fill in the gaps. its like a modular synth. these motherfuckers are effectively trying to hook up a midi keyboard to a modular synth and are very not mad that they can't make catchy pop tunes with it that match the level of deliberate human engineering. the whole bit is to surrender yourself to the flow. embrace the aleatoric nature of it. these motherfuckers know nothing about art.

any creative with even a modicum of appreciation for art and artistic expression can utilize the tools that techbros have made to 'democratize art' infinitely better than them, and they will never grasp why that is if they keep operating under their current heuristic

gender reveal 9/11 from DALL-E mini has more artistic value than 90% of the output of the much more sophisticated text-to-image models that have released since

LOL okay that's amazing. I mean this whole thread is amazing but this is really the cherry on top. Also what gender is yellow I want that one please. Or green, green would be cool too. Can my gender be green?
