Imagine it being 2019 and having no fucking clue what this combination of words meant. Absolute bliss.

All the comments from all cross posts on a single page is great. You can also add your own user flair like you could on Reddit, which lemmy doesn’t support. I haven’t messed with it much yet, but the ability to make lists of communities into feeds also seems really useful.

This one fuckin got me. I was like ‘yeah, I believe that unquestioningly.’

If using AI to make ‘art’ (have a machine regurgitate other people’s art, the ones available right now literally can’t exist without other people’s art that it was trained on without permission, you don’t get to just skip this part because it annoys you) makes you an artist, then so does paying someone to make art and telling them how to make it. And walking into a restaurant and ordering something also makes you a chef. Paying to have someone build your house? You better believe that makes you an architect, carpenter, plumber, and electrician.

Reacting to an illegal occupation of the state you govern is not the part where some party involved is jumping straight into civil war! If you would like to know which one is doing that, the context clues are in the first 5 words of the sentence.

Maybe you should when the National Guard is illegally occupying your state? If not now, when?

Expecting Trump to play ball and use California as anything but a whipping boy is a pipe dream.

Unless anyone recognizes the specific sounds being used it’s probably not anything that can be answered definitively without asking whoever did sound design for the episode, or maybe seeing the script.

This would likely be true even if it was a real cartoon, for the most part they draw from the sound effects library of whatever studio is working on the project.

Having that impulse to think that is good, stopping there isn’t.

Fucking LAPD buzzing them with a helicopter. If you check Flightradar you can see the (news?) helicopters also there are following local regulations to not fly below 1000 feet in urban areas. Meanwhile the LAPD is dipping down to 700 feet.

Edit: new low of 525 feet

I just logged on to post this and was pleased to see it at the top of my feed o7

It’s called plausible deniability, get on Susan’s level.
