overlap between drawing and photography? easy, composition, colour theory, framing, in fact you could take everything (aside from gear knowledge) from photography and apply it to drawing or painting

pretty much all mediums of art have the same basic core - concepts that can come in handy no matter what other medium you grab, shapes, colours, compositions - you learn those by working with any medium, and you can take them everywhere else

i meant the knowledge of line weight, colour theory, perspective, shapes, how light works, where shadows fall, how to treat your values, and the million other things that you can take to paper, that i have taken to paper as a ditigal artist

drawing ditigally is one way of drawing sure, but the skills you get as you draw are 90% transferable to any other medium - you just need to learn the new tool first

obviously it won’t be the same, but you’ll still be able to use the knowledge and skills you’ve obtained drawing digitally - to help you put the idea in your head onto the paper much better

and AI prompter would be on the same level as someone who’s never touched a pencil before

that language model doesn’t regurgitate the media it was trained on. it just makes sure you don’t misspell your thats

no,

if someone learns art on digital systems they can grab a pencil and do the same on paper. maybe they’ll be annoyed by lack of the undo button, maybe they’ll have to learn colour mixing, and how materials interact with each other, but the core ability to make art is fully transferable between ditigal and paper

same goes for animation. btw. your statement about it doesn’t make much sense, keyframes are a concept used by both digital and traditional animators. and if you meant frame interpolation then it’s a brute force calculation of the most average of averages given two data-points, 90% of the time the animator has to go back and fix it, developing their animation skills that they can then take to paper and do just the same (would just take way longer)

now what will a prompt typer do without their AI?

fuck all is what they’d do. the only transferable skill from that would be idk writing image descriptions for the visually impaired

different trans man here, it’s not the penis, i’m fine with my bottom bits,

but i’d still like that cocaine please, maybe this stimulant would actually wake me up instead of making me sleepy >:|

it’s just shocking enough to stay in your mind without making you numb to it

it’s not violent or gore-ish, your brain won’t block it for your own good. it’s just a niche kink

the thing that mentally exhausts me the most is guilt - guilt of undone chores, guilt of unfinished projects, guilt of unfulfilled “potential”. attempting to rest when surrounded with guilt is exhausting too

i’m working on it of course, but it’s a rather slow climb, with plenty of holes on the way. and if it was just internal that’d be half the problem it is, because on top of all the personal guilt i also need to push back against the culture of grind and constant productivity (which is, in itself, a big source of guilt)

the only way is through unless i give in to the temptation, fake my death, and join a buddhist monastery in tibet or something idk

well, since we’re getting into technicalities - they would be on acid, but they wouldn’t be tripping

i’ve recently introduced a new rule for myself - i’m only ever to have one plate, one bowl, one mug, one set of cutlery, up to 2 kitchen knives & 2 pots/pans dirt at a time. if i want to cook more and my usual set is dirty? well, gotta clean them first (though this has also helped me get in the habit of cleaning right after i’m done, so i don’t spend time hungrily waiting for the crusty pans to soak)

honestly, this has been working great for me. the huge pile of dirty plates and cutlery at the end of the week? no longer a problem, no longer a daunting task, because it no longer exists! there’s one working set, and that’s it

this also allows me to enjoy my favourite mug all the time instead of once a week :3

back when LSD wasn’t demonised by the US government and people were free to study it - scientists found out that after about a week of taking the same dose you’d feel 0 effects. our bodies build up tolerance to LSD crazy fast

idk how true that is but i’ve seen people online say that if you want the same effects day after you need to double what you took the day previous

LSD is a substance of extremes, the drug simply opens your mind and shows you what’s inside, it doesn’t care if you like the view or not

so we’d see more loving people yes, but the hateful people would have fear invoked in them like never before which would only fuel them

depends on the dose, if someone chugged water to get themselves above 100ug then they’d notice. but if they stayed ~50ug for the first few days then indeed nobody would notice, especially because after said week they’d have enough tolerance for that amount to do fuck all

then you make it a feature! “visit the swearing parrot enclosure! be cussed at by various birds! we’ve tried stopping them, but they didn’t care”

i usually either opt for going through windows, or wait for a woman or an enby to open a door and then run at them aggressively before they close it

in Poland we have something similar! we have BLIK and it generates a code for you that the other person taps into their terminal/you tap into an online purchase window, then it tells you to confirm again in the app and there you go, paid

there’s also BLIK phone transfers, you just need the other person’s phone number and (provided they have their bank linked to their phone number ofc) you can send money to their account that way

i haven’t paid attention to it recently but when this was being introduced they also added a cheeky “this transaction only took you 30s ;)” at the end lol

even if you don’t plan on joining any organisations you do move the needle forward - if you bring up the topic of said organisation existing and speak of it in a good light others will look it up, and maybe join, maybe not - but the positive word will spread. and if many people see an organisation in a positive light, then it’s more likely they’ll join

nobody is useless, every kind person moves things forward, even if just a little, it’ll all add up to a lot

and why must everything be effective? can’t people just be kind?

it would be nice if we all got up and began fighting, but that won’t happen. and you can’t force people to fight when they don’t want to. everyone has their role though, be they silent or loud - if you’re kind, you’ll help out in one way or another

then the title is misleading

they can’t just put a game on their platform, the publisher needs to agree and set up terms of sale - if the publisher is going against what GOG want then it won’t be easy to compromise
