My partner of 10 years (spouse of 5) and I decided to call it quits over the holidays. We've been having a rough go of it since about a year into the pandemic/lockdowns and my attempts to unmask and find who I actually am behind all the people pleasing and emotional trauma has put more and more dist... |

Regarding copyright, I think this is going to be interesting because it raises the question of who owns the rights to AI art. I would say whoever created the ML model owns the copyright since generative art is based on what the artist or developer trained the ML on based on personal taste. Once a h... |

At least from my perspective, these are all "gimmicks" from companies trying to find a way to distinguish this years model from last years model. For years, I was on a yearly upgrade model, but gave it up after there really was no change between what I have vs what I could get. I think tha... |

There are some great ethical conversations to be had about AI art in the future, but what we have today is not made by an artificial intelligence , but through machine learning . The "AI" involved can only spit out styles and types of art that it was trained on, and any so-called creativit... |

I've clicked through a bunch of pages of this long-lived thread, and think that most of the issues with mainstream music voiced here is fallout from the Telecommunications Act of 1996 which deregulated a lot of media markets and allowed for monopolies to take place in radio and local-news broadcasts... |

I just played through it, and think my feedback largely can be summed up by "show, don't tell." If the point is to convey your experience as an alien in a strange world, reading won't do much for others because your lived experience is so foreign. It's like telling a depressed person to ch... |

Wow, I didn't know they got pulled from GOG too... they're usually pretty good about keeping things up even as legal teams get involved. Maybe they'll come back in the future? I know there are a bunch of WiiWare games I'd love to have put on other platforms. And hoping that PixelJunk exclusive for S... |

Hello! I'm new to WP but mentioned zines in my welcome post and another member perked up so I thought I would ask in this area if anyone else was into them as well. I collect them, make them, go to zinefests (when not scared for my life bc of COVID), and have even taught college classes and workshop... |

Thanks for the warm welcome. Happy to be here! You might want to edit your profile to include a signature line that mentions your interests. Done! Thanks for the suggestion. And yes, I remember zines from back in the day in the early 1990s... I suppose, with maybe three regular writers or artists, t... |

I'll always own a Nintendo device because they have too many good exclusives. And while I was a pretty staunch Sony-crony during the PS2-PS4 gens... I gotta say, GamePass is a wildly good deal. The streaming side of it alone means I can play stuff on my console, laptop, or phone... so with a decent ... |

There are a lot of great cozy games on Xbox. I'd look at something along the lines of:
* Disney Dreamlight Valley * Little Witch in the Woods * Potion Permit * Stardew Valley
And another good one/two from the 360 era is Viva Pinata. |
