I did this too! Started out as a "test" or temper tantrum, but afterwards it felt so safe he didn't start talking, that it really was a space where I was in control.
Stupid clever therapist.

There's already ObscuraCam meant for AI detecting and pixelating/redacting/eyeglasses-and-mustache-afying faces, and scrubbing metadata. Unfortunately it no longer works as a camera (at least for me), and options for other emojis would be great. But if you could contribute to that (been abandoned for a few years though still listed on Guardian Project's page), it could be useful for mass photos too.
None has moved completely, but two family members and one friend have installed Signal to chat with me. Contacts are ok, people know I don't have WhatsApp and use SMS in stead, but social neighborhood/hobby/association groups won't move and it often leaves me out of the loop unless they remember to toss an email.
Have you looked at zooplus.co.uk or their "outlet sibling", bitiba.co.uk? German company selling many German cat foods, such as Animonda Carny (my regular), MAC's Cat (my cats' favourite), or anything made by Matina Gmbh, such as the similar but cheaper wet food brand Smilla (varied acceptance by my cats, also has dry foods). All these wet foods have a rather "chunky spam" consistency, adding a bit of water and mushing it in may make it tastier (and add water yay!), but it also means it's very nutrient dense. You only need about 200g/day/cat, whereas you need about 300g/day of eg. Whiskas, essentially paying for water. Bozita is Swedish... Probably others that I forget.
Aren't the used LCD ones available really cheap these days? Probably best bang for your buck.
In the context of start-ups. Where workers presumably are also rewarded with stock options or similar. Takes a certain mentality and a definition of "winning" that I don't share, which is why I don't and wouldn't work at a start-up. And besides, the message is chiefly directed at founders. I don't find it -that- controversial.
Hate is such a strong word. Some bad, some good.
Bad:
- Copyright infringement and other unethical practices in acquiring training data
- Unimaginative AI art flooding the graphics market and the Internet
- Taking work from actual artists that might generate something new
- So much energy used on pointless, quickly forgotten "single-use art" in the middle of a climate crisis
Good:
- Okay starting point for logos for eg. small associations or clubs, preferably treated as version 0.1 and later worked on, but still an affordable option, and more personalised than clipart
- Creative visual outlet for people with no interest in developing their graphical skills, but who have an urge to get a small number of specific images out of their system
- Probably a good media for some commentary on the relationship between real a unreal, familiar and alien cognition, and such, but that itself is such a cliche
- Simply a fun toy
As someone with shit income but a nice savings buffer, holy shit it makes things so easy, compared. "Cool dress, I'll get that for next summer - cool coat, I'll get that for next winter", no problem. Just got my cat's meds for the next 4 months at a sale, and the next sale should be in that time. Also could get her thyroid radiotherapy, that's already paid for itself (compared to permanent expensive meds, of course not compared to no treatment). Appliance starting to make a noise or performance dropping, time to add that to my second hand watch list and keep an eye on sales of quality brands, rather than being forced to risk it failing and then getting something in a hurry, possibly on some payment scheme with a high interest rate. Pantry items on sale and/or in bulk. And of course the kind of main shoes that have held up for 5+ years, just could use a resoling soon.
I can't even imagine the constant stress living without it would be. Ow. :/
True. I'm still shocked. This should be taken more as low estimate of corporations than admiration of their accomplishments. You know those goals were set as low as they could be, with as many tricks as there could be, and still I expected something like maybe 20% to stick to them at best.
Wait, over 60% met them or faced consequences?
Edit: "Almost 61% achieved their targets" holy fuck. Corporations did something good they said they would, over half the time.
Completely opposite for me. Full bush keeps everything more "airy", whereas shaven is underwear directly against the parts that bleach them, plus it all gets all sweaty.
Sweet sweet yum yum.
