If you liked my screentone calc you're going to love this one
sensai7.github.io/screentone…
I made an online screentone generator, with size, angle and shape selectors, and even a custom shape option using fourier series coefficients.

The greatest tragedy of AI is that we lost the ability to just enjoy art the moment we lay eyes on it. For a brief half a second we have to double check, look for signs before we can really enjoy something and that used to be so free for us. We’ve lost that free spark of joy.

A game based on D&D just won GotY. Kickstarters in the hobby continue to make millions. D&D and TTRPGs are at a peak of its pop culture notoriety. Can’t be mismanagement by executives. No no no let’s lay-off employees to make the company healthy.
Dungeons & Dragons owner lays off 1,100 staff two weeks before Christmas “to keep Hasbro healthy”

Big s/o to all my friends, collaborators, and the very talented artist who worked on Sirens Song, my 1st published ttrpg book! @anerbananers @siegefault @INK_J3T_ @Lil_Tachyon @steelshadow much love 🙌🏾
Siren's Song, a Mountain's Remorse is now available! This dramatic mission by @StationUkuwa sees you on the trail of a NHP turned rogue from SSC's controversial Farm facility, following the lure of a fateful call up the mountain. You can pick it up here: massif-press.itch.io/sirens-…

Dear @midjourney
You’re killing me.
Your model has been using my work+name for over 10k times, and that’s just the public forums. Can you remove my work and block my name from your generator? I’m sure you understand how deeply unethical this situation is.
please rt

Engineers need to stop deluding themselves with talk of ‘disaster areas’ and vague ‘dangerous jobs’ these will be autonomous weapons of war
Roboticists from @leggedrobotics and @NVIDIAEmbedded are teaching four-legged robots climb and jump. After training in simulation, the robots can autonomously decide how to scramble over and under obstacles, which will help them do dangerous jobs so that humans don't have to.

There's been much gaslighting & moderate justifying of the new Florida social studies standards, people stating the "clarifications" were designed to show Black resilience, or were just "facts." So, I thought I'd compare the African-American history standards to the Holocaust's.

The Secret Invasion Intro’s Ai tech they hired has a large body of Stable Diffusion work. If they used SD on the intro it traces back to the Laion Database. The Laion that is being sued by a photographer that wanted to opt out. Also SD being sued by Getty and a Class action.

The Supreme Court just ruled that at least some federal prisoners who are completely innocent must serve out their entire sentence, with no meaningful way to challenge their unlawful conviction. trib.al/tgxm6z2

i’ve been struggling to put this into words for a while but i think a lot of this AI art craze comes down to these guys feeling the joy of being creative for the first time and mistaking it for something much deeper.

It is unbelievable that I am expected to use my body to shelter my students from bullets, but not speak out against the politicians who created that expectation.
