I don't see how the vote count contradicts that message. As of this moment, the vote count (upvotes - downvotes) is 110 on the parent comment criticizing the use of AI art and 260 on the main post. Technically a minority, but it's a sizable minority.

I also don't agree that it's off-topic. The contents of the meme is the topic. The contents are AI generated, so that makes it one of the topics.

I can't figure this one out. Is it an actual dad joke or is it a meta dad joke where the joke is that "dad joke" = joke about dads?

Yes, because they still allow you to spend your money elsewhere if a new storefront appears on the market. Epic is actively preventing that.

Maybe you can expand a bit on what you think the scientists did wrong?

I think at this point, it would be more economical to distill the water than to burn up contaminants.

My filter is somehow always empty. I don't understand where all the food goes. It's not like I clean off all my plates perfectly before putting them on there.

No, see, you start with the assumption that everything is zero-sum, then you look at the other guy to see suffering and conclude that you must therefore be winning.

So what would be the reasonable stance in your opinion?

[–] howrar@lemmy.ca 5 points 3 months ago

No, this doesn't work for me. I imagine myself standing in the middle of the road where the camera would be. If I look left and right and see these two cars, it means they're going in the same direction.

I don't understand what you mean here. I've already said my persuasive piece. If it convinces anyone to change their stance, then great. If not, then so be it. It is what it is. But I don't see any reason to go back and delete it just because I don't think anyone's going to be persuaded. That's extra work for no gains.

Do you not want to make the world a better place though? I'm assuming yes. How would it help to share misleading articles over another containing the exact same information but without being misleading?

If you're wealthy enough, you can. Otherwise, all your time is going to be spent working (not through producing art) to make ends meet and resting so you can do it all over again the next day.

Gotta stick your finger in there and find the center pull end.
