I was making reference to this.

I know. Typos are different than incoherent grammar, though. Obviously, you got my point, as well.

I never said you can't compare.

Umm, you claimed that it's a false equivalency to claim that both reps and dems don't give a fuck about the people.

The establishment dems suck for many reasons. None of which you can find here.

The meme never claimed to be comprehensive. You're making a mountain out of a molehill. No one claimed that both were "the same".

I think I will.

You're free to be wrong.

The Dems have put on rallies to stop it.

I doubt that the main resistance comes from the dems.

stroke much?

I guess you never make typos, then. Huh? /s

seriously, this isn't a "fair comparison" because it doesn't address any sort of nuance nor is it supposed to.

I'm sorry that I slandered ghonorrea by comparing it to pancreatic cancer. Clearly I forgot the nUaNcE between these two horrible sicknesses. /s

Wait. How can there be any "nuance" if you can't compare the two parties? Is a comparison of apples with oranges flawed because of the "nuance"?

It's supposed to make people go: "yeah the dems suck too" rather than understand anything about what's going on.

That's what you think the intent is. I think that it's supposed to state that the US democratic system is not suitable for a fair and equitable world and the Dems are not the solution of the mess the US is in.

You can have your own interpretation but don't assume that this was OP's intent.

No need to #bothSides to split the Dem vote anymore -- it's already over.

You're the one who brought lost elections into this.

One side are literal fascists and the other is the former's enables.

FTFY

Nobody said the Dems were perfect OR not bad through the chain.

Never claimed that someone claimed that. Again: how is the original post wrong?

Two parties in a two party system is no case of "apples and oranges". That's as close to a fair comparison as you're gonna get.

Ghonorrea and pancreatic cancer are two things I don't want to have. Is this "false equivalency" as well?

What are you talking about the initial argument is completely insane to be begin with. I think Biden came into office and reduce child poverty or hunger or something by half as his first action.

Are you having a stroke? I don't follow your point and/or syntax.

We're gonna compare that to Trump destroying the economy, removing due process, open up national parks to logging, letting DOGE cut departments with corruption, invading other countries?

What do you want from me? Obviously we agree that Trump is worse than the Dems.

That still doesn't make the Dems "not bad".

Are you denying that the Dems are shit? Just because the Reps are worse and currently in power?

What kind of an argument is that supposed to be?

Yes, the british bus with the canadian maple leaf on the side. /s

The so-called "social democrats" in Germany have aa neoliberal program, just like the rest of the party landscape in Germany. I can't imagine it being any different in the rest of Europe.

Yeah, it's hard to spot weird artifacts, but I've seen several of these now (which were easier to spot) and I'm quite sure.

After checking it out a bit more, I think the line thickness is a bit inconsistent and there's no watermark/signature.

Editz also, the bus doesn't have a front door (although that could be an unlikely human fuck-up)

It's like the fifth one on here in this style. The others were a bit easier to spot.

This garbo AI comic style is speedrunning the "most hated artstyle" category.

 

Hi! I'm sometimes handling photos of people who wouldn't like their real faces shown. But pixellation isn't a very PR-friendly practice if you want to publish the images (e.g. photos of a protest).

So I remembered that ages ago, back when I used snapchat that they had this simple faceswap feature that was able to run on a simple smartphone and I was wondering:

Is there a simple, easy to set up program that takes the faces of a picture and faceswaps them with another, available face?

I was thinking of getting a random face from this-person-does-not-exist.com and superimpose it on the faces of the photo. This way, it's protecting the identity of the people on the photos, while keeping the photo easy to look at (plus, no one else's likeness will be used unconsentually).

After a quick google, I found faceswap.dev, but then I read stuff about extracting, training and converting and deemed it overkill. The feature I was thinking of was done for two people swapping their faces on a live video feed on a phone. I don't want to go broke by throwing a GTX 5090 on that problem.

Do you know any problem on Desktop (or maybe on android, or a selfhosted service) that can do that kind of thing? IMHO, it shouldn't be too hard.

Description comic of four panels:

Panel 1: Canary being offered a copy of Peter Kropotkin's "The conquest of bread" it's angry and screaming "GET THAT PROPAGANDA OUT OF MY FACE!"

Panel 2: It chomps on the book

Panel 3: It tastes the book

Panel 4: It's full of bliss. The Anarchy- and mutual aid symbols are floating above its' head.

 

Office space meme:

"If y'all could stop calling an LLM "open source" just because they published the weights... that would be great."
