    What is the difference between an ai training on someone's art and a human training on someone's art?

    I have a friend that studied frank frazetta to figure out how he did his style and for a period of time his work could have been paintings by frazetta.

    What is the between humans learning to copy art styles and ai?

    Could be as simple as thinking "no one cares about me, but they love and care for a tree, so I'll destroy the thing they care about because I'm mad that no one cares about me. "

    Free to Play

    Star Wars Galaxy of Heroes (swgoh) is actually very free to play friendly. Was just reading a comparison to the marvel game and one thing that was mentioned is that you can max out characters completely free to play in swgoh, where as getting red stars in marvel is very difficult without paying. If you have time and like star wars, you can go all the way to end game content without paying.

    Nope, pretty much find that flavor disgusting and the smell turns my stomach. Couldn't care less if someone liked it, as long as it isn't near me.

    I've been very happy with jerboa. Voyager is nice, but too much flash. I like the clean and compact look of jerboa.

    Thank you! While similar to the website, the feel of the app is better for me. Probably all the years of using RiF. The change in feel and responsiveness makes tildes more usable to me.

    On going serial called First Contact by Ralts Bloodthorne: https://www.royalroad.com/fiction/33726/first-contact

    "Eight Thousand Years after the Glassing of Earth, Terran Descent Humanity has largely become a post-scarcity society based on consent and enjoying life. With the discovery of another ancient race beyond the "Great Gulf", events and history collide to draw the Terran Confederacy into war against a hundred million year old empire that has always won and believes it always will. With allies and enemies of multiple species, the Orion Galactic Arm Spur will be wracked by warfare the likes of which have not been seen. Cracked, harried, wounded, and damaged, Terran Descent Humanity willfully throws itself against the universe itself."

    Using connect for lemmy until Lemmy.world is updated. It's OK. Prefer jerboa though.

    DIY is not a hobby. Just because I had to build something or make something rather than buying it, doesn't mean that is something I do for fun.

    I pretty much only play mobile games that I can do when time allows wherever I might be for whatever time I might have. PC and console games require too much of a time commitment.

    That doesn't mean candy crush. For example, I play star wars galaxy of Heroes with a guild and do guild events and raids. For the most part it requires time in 5 minute chunks. Sometimes I have a half hour, sometimes I have 5 min.

    Lemmy world is still on the older version due to .18 temporarily disabling captchas. Not sure where you are seeing bot posts as the top content. Even browsing new, I'm not seeing a ton of it.

    Golf is like long distance, outdoor pool.

    The same kind of things that are enjoyable in pool, can be enjoyed in golf. Accuracy, bank shots using green contours instead of bumpers, etc.

    For me it scratches the same itch, without being stuck in a bar or pool hall. Or at least it used to before I messed up my back. Now I play in charity scrambles a couple times a year loaded up on extra pain meds.

    Still love the feeling when everything comes together and a drive or iron shot goes exactly like you wanted.

    That on kbin? I've not noticed that on lemmy. I should probably create an account on kbin to try it out.
