While I agree the price is ridiculous (especially as a non drinker lol) I'm not convinced it's AI. Looking up Brewskey on an image search, you can find images of similar cans going back 3yrs. Very diverse styles, with common themes of monocle and hops.

That said, trying to find literally any info on artists both past and present is proving difficult. Most info is just about how they make their IPAs and any mention of art is all "the art of brewing" which isn't what I'm after. There are quite a few beer can artists out there though so I bet someone willing to search Instagram or something might be able to find an artist who contributed to Brewskey.

My God that camera is way too easy to "accidentally" tamper with, lol. At the very least, my kids greese covered finger tips while I stroll by.

The real question is who has an unsaved lesson plan open on their laptop. Just fuckin' improv style teaching method.

"Ceci n'est pas une pipe" turns out predicted the rise of AI image generation. Except I suppose that's "Ceci n'est pas de l'art."

Relax, it's 41.6% of 500 republican primary voters. A combined majority chose Trump, Congress or Corporations, which frankly are all good answers.

And again, these are GOP primary voters- although they have an open primary so it may include some Democrats and Independents. Just, not as many as registered Republicans.

And yet it's still weirdly expensive at home. I remember when a pound of ground beef was a couple bucks, tops. Now I've seen it as high as $9, albeit the lean kind.

This data is a few years old so we can already answer that: they crashed their economy by not raising inflation rates after COVID, then elected a woman who wants to be the next Margaret Thatcher. The love of capitalism is fucking them quite hard right now, lol

Can confirm; I teach statistics and allow take home exams. I don't even really need guardrails on the math-- if you cheat via LLM, your answer is almost always hilariously wrong.

I was curious about the posts mentioned so I took a look at your history and can kinda see why. The Linux one didn't make too much sense to me but people were generally nice to you, although understandable skeptical since you're talking about hardware not working. Honestly you had a bit of a meltdown in that thread, which I think contributed more to the down votes than the initial opinion (like you said, text brings out a worse version of yourself).

The political ones, I mostly pieced together genecide denial (?) which has generally been very unpopular here. To be fair, that was more than a year ago, although what was unpopular then has aged even worse, what with people in Europe getting arrested for pro-Palastinian views and such.

I'm not saying the behavior of mods and such were justified, of course, just... y'know, two sides of the story. You're in the right to express your views and seek discussion, but others have an equal right to call you out on it-- especially if you get defensive and rude over polite, reasonable responses.

But that's just my two cents. I only ever comment, and I've had moments with people being rude or misunderstanding my intent. It happens, as social media is just that way.

I mean, he included Japan and South Korea, among others that aren't strictly "Western." They are all US allies, though, which makes sense for a US Senator.

I graduated into Bush's recession, so I went to get a PhD in education. They pay you a small wage to do research, guaranteed for 5 years in my program. Graduated that into a healthy economy that... old professors weren't willing to retire from. Finally give up after several second place rejections and take a simple adjunct professor job just in time for the pandemic, cutting my classes to a third.

But hey, at least I didn't get that job at NCES; Trump 2.0 royally fucked all those education PhD federal jobs.

Reminds me I saw a Hatsune Miku car the other day. Honestly, they make me smile and you likely imagine an otaku white incel guy driving it but I look over and the dude looks like a chicano gangster lol.
