Pal world. The new update added a lot of #content

I actually think the bad one shot is kind of part of the joke.

For instance: Someone posts a petty revenge story about getting back at their ex boyfriend for cleaning out their bank account.

I comment on that post with my request to aihorde along the lines of “a drag queen lifting a champagne glass as a toast to how delightfully petty someone is being”.

AIHorde will then generate the image.

Regardless of how good or bad the gen is, my original intent will come across because the OP can still see that my AIHorde prompt was intended to compliment OP. The bonus is if AIHorde comes up with an awesome output, it will be hilarious. It the output is terrible, also hilarious. If the output is so-so, the original intent of a compliment was still delivered.

At least, that’s my thinking.

As an example: Slack kind of had this functionality when sending GIFs awhile back. If you had the Giphy integration, you’d just type “/gif {topic}” and the integration would select a random gif that was returned from searching your topic. This GIF would be posted in the chat without you having the chance to review it first. Sometimes the GIF returned was irrelevant result, but everyone brushed it off because they knew how random the integration could be. Other times, it returned the perfect GIF and the potential randomness of result made a good GIF result even more satisfying.

This is gold and I’m so thankful for this knowledge.

I wish I could limit the response to just one picture so I could use this as a meme generator in response to user comments.

Cordyceps fungus. Prion diseases like Chronic Wasting Disease.

Both are horrible

Damn, I’m the only one using Mlem?

I always feel like the features I’ve worked on become my coworkers or like pets. When a specific feature breaks often, I’ll think “damnit Frank! One of these days I’m going to patch that edge case once and for all!”

Then I patch Frank and he quiets down so I can focus on the next thing leadership wants.

You get to know these things and you put care into designing them (if you didn’t put care into them, you’d likely be a hack of an IT person). It’s always hard to see them go.

Sorry for your loss.

One of the people briefed on the situation, a consultant advising the United States on encryption matters, said Apple would be barred from warning its users that its most advanced encryption no longer provided full security. The person deemed it shocking that the U.K. government was demanding Apple’s help to spy on non-British users without their governments’ knowledge. A former White House security adviser confirmed the existence of the British order.

Bloody hell - I’m encouraged by this because it means that Apple’s encryption actually frustrates governments, but anyone using iCloud for storage or backups is pwned.

And the bugs were (usually) reliable, so if you found a workaround on your own or just avoided causing the bug, you would get a consistent experience.

Now it feels like each deployment ends up breaking something new.

Yeah, the convenience of everyone having internet has shortened development cycles and meant everything is shipped with less testing and is available for constant rework/improvement.

It’s really nice sometimes to admire early software because of how cobbled-together it was and would still work well-enough.

I don’t really know anything about China, so I really can’t say.

Yup. It’s phuckin awesome

FLUSH THE TOILET AFTER YOU’VE HAD A SHIT

Sales. No joke — the knowledge you need has a hard cap (the product line) but sales is commonly the highest-paid entry level employee (as long as you hit commission).

Now add a line in here for “effort” flattening out over time and that’s what I wanna see.

“One pull for each coffee you buy.” And it’s like a collectibles game for each of the donut flavors.

That shape is “round”?

Enjoyed this :D

Thank you for sharing this

Oh man, woodworking is pretty bad. Tools galore, scrap wood everywhere, and half-finished projects all over the garage.
