They turned out pretty nice! My only suggestion isn’t really AI related, but regarding the logo over it
The white border helps the black logo stand out, though maybe having an additional drop shadow could help it pop out a bit more, though that might be unnecessary. Just something I like to do when Photoshopping, but it’s purely personal preference! It certainly looks good, even without it.
But you’re not giving it up, since human-made art and AI generated images can both exist.
Sure, it could be said that AI generated images can oversaturate the internet, but a lot of sites that host art, both SFW and NSFW, have reacted by tagging AI art and allowing the user to filter them out.
There’s so many forms of art in the world and one lifetime isn’t enough to learn it all. Music, visual arts, cooking, writing, etc. I choose to focus on some art forms at the expense of others.
If the technology exists to make it easier to visually represent something on my mind and give me time to focus on my other pursuits, I’m all for it.
The first week or two of ditching the habit of opening reddit is the hardest, but speaking from experience, it gets easier with time.
If I were to get my hands on one of these, I probably wouldn’t put too many games on there, maybe just one or two that I’m adamant on playing at the time.
I do have some low capacity micro SDs scattered at home as well that should barely be large enough to house a single switch game. So worst case scenario, I could also just pop the cart out, swap the micro SD, and plug it back in to only require a single insertion.
Granted, this might not be feasible for people who just want to use the migswitch as a backup tool to put all their legal games on one cart, but for pirates like myself I’d consider it only a minor setback.
Not to mention the cartridge slot probably being designed to last a lot of insertions before failing
This is just a theory/rumor (and partially a cope) but some people have floated the idea that this might not even be produced in Russia, and the overbearing Russian/Soviet symbolism is to throw off Nintendo and hide where it’s really being produced.
Afaik there’s no evidence to substantiate this, but if it were to be true, that would be hilarious.
Yeah wtf, the OP is just an asshole Thanks for catching that, and kudos for the “power drunk mod” for not bending
Lemmy got more than just “marginally” popular. It saw the biggest boom within its entire lifetime and became a viable alternative for anyone seekong an alternative to Reddit. We both still use it.
The article proves that enough noise was made to catch the attention of the biggest news publications, which remember the protest to this day. In other words, people still remember what Reddit did.
As far as online protests go, that was more successful than any other coordinated online protest in recent memory. Gotta start somewhere.
My thoughts exactly. If it’s making finding solutions to problems worse for the end user, that’s obviously bad for the end user, but it also means it’s affecting the reputation of the site in some meaningful way- even if it’s as simple as inconveniencing a guy looking for an answer
To my knowledge, these privacy laws prevent corporations from holding onto your data after you have requested to delete it. Lemmy is not a corporation, and there is no single entity that holds onto all of your data. That’s just a tradeoff of being decentralized.
If modern social media trends have shown us anything, it’s that content quality could be shit and it doesn’t matter if there will be thousands - if not millions- of people swarming to view it.
Nothing against you btw, it’s just a general frustration I have with trying to move focus away from these sites
Yeah, the article itself makes me a lot less sympathetic towards the author than the headline would suggest, given he instigated this whole legal dispute on frankly idiotic premises.
Might be because of Threads, and Meta seeking to use ActivityPub themselves.
I don’t disagree with you though; I don’t think the fedi is big enough at the moment to register as more than a blip on their radar, as you said.
Denuvo probably limits it from its full potential, but the game still runs really well, even on older hardware. Granted, P5R isn’t a brand new title but a port of an older one so that prob helps
One a complete side note, that Wii Shop Channel Music extension is absolutely hilarious. I love it
Like others said, it sounds good in theory to let users profit as well as the site itself, though ultimately, I think the whole idea of profit in this context is antithetical to online discussion.
In my opinion, an ideal forum or discussion board isn’t about farming karma, awards, or real currency. It’s about speaking your mind about subjects or topics you are passionate about or have something you want to chime in on. Adding an additional monetary incentive only corrupts those involved, which includes Reddit as we’ve seen. But I also think this extends to the users as well. If people are compelled monetarily to post opinions that will gain awards or upvotes, discussion will become even more inorganic, for lack of a better term. In my opinion, the site will have lost sight of generating meaningful discussion, even more than it already has.
It’s why I like how Lemmy doesn’t have universal karma or awards. The incentive of using the site rests solely on the content of the discussions you have, save for the exception of moderators who want to coalesce power. I think monetization is just bloat and only serves to make social media more addictive than it already is.
While I’m not saying Reddit should go the donation-only approach, as I think it is too late for that, I do think keeping monetization to a minimum is in the best interest of any forum.
Music is one of the easiest things to pirate, so much so that I often forget me downloading flacs of the songs I listen to is supposed to be a no-no
Between a flac playing app (Musicolet on Android and MusicBee on PC) as well as YT Music Revanced, things go smoothly
Sir this is !reddit@lemmy.world
That, plus articles from Ars Technica discussing Reddit generally get a fair bit of traction on this community because it’s a semi-big name publication discussing Reddit in a negative light, which further confirms the stance most users on Lemmy already have about Reddit
Incentivizing users to do stuff with imaginary internet points and pngs of trophies and thinking it’s a substantial reward is peak Reddit
Oh yeah, I agree it’s a wise decision for any content creator, especially those who want to make a living from it, to diversify their sources of income. Backing up all content they post on YouTube to other sites as well is also really nice as it contributes to the push away from YouTube without having to risk little on their part as well
Of course! I can help try my hand at it
