“Livin’ the dream”

Hell yeah loop de loop

Literally talked with him in an ultra realistic dream last night. Told him to “hang in there” and then I showed him some cool tech he has to look forward to.

Or, even more ironically, maybe they used ChatGPT to analyze the changes and it missed it. This would tickle me to some extent, but also solidify the terror of such a system being used to make life altering decisions.

I just remember this movie talking about the Mac G5 before it was announced. As an early early Apple employee that geeked me right out.

Here is the poor little guy closer.

I have a 2012 MacBook Pro that runs exactly as it did when I bought it. It’s fast enough (i7), has retina resolution and can triple boot. I feel like I may have gotten my money’s worth over the 14 years it’s been running perfectly. The hardware is also still basically pristine.

ITS BECAUSE THE TIRES WERE MADE OF SNOW

Why 90% of these dudes look like they fr eat babies tho

Fun fact, the G in Kenny G is for Gorelick. Though they don’t seem to be related.

Ahhh yeah naww

You about to get rekt with spiritual fortune.

It is exactly a quick photo taken with my phone. It is also not heavily edited. I don’t know what you people think heavy editing is, but this ain’t it.

Thank you!

Dear god, please help us know how best to please the antichrist. Thx.

Thanks for your meaningful, informed, and helpful contribution.

Of course it’s edited. Pro tip: every image is edited. Nothing anyone sees is raw from the sensor. It’s all completely arbitrary. Even people who shoot film show edited photos, they just offload the editing to the film lab. Someone else is doing the processing for them.

Even direct from a digital camera to jpeg, the camera is performing countless transformations and adjustment s before burning to jpeg. See film emulations on Fuji cameras for example.

The entire point of photography is to present to people a compelling vision that feels the way you did when you saw it.

That being said, this is basic curve and a vignette.

It was more to denote the presence of Apple’s processing algorithms, which are possibly part of why people think it’s AI or painted. Lots of people on Reddit thought it was a painting and some pointed to the painterly look of details when zoomed into.

Lots of discussion about that being the result of Apple’s fusion algo, which merges many rapidly taken exposures to eliminate noise, at the expense of real detail.
