AI-generated QR codes using ControlNet are insane. This is going to be increasingly common in ads in the near future. These examples blew my mind (try scanning them): 1. Ancient Village

The world map according to Google Street View in 2023. Germans are still super reluctant to open up to Street View. Not sure how much that ends up protecting their privacy and how much it points to Germany falling behind in technology. Source: buff.ly/441JHIa

Whether you agreed with the #NationalShutdown or not, the reason so many on either side of the issue watched events closely is that no matter what you think about the EFF, we all know that SA is one match away from bursting into an inferno. We just don't know who holds the match.

Why is it difficult to make the change from coal to renewables, #AndrédeRuyter was recently asked at @dailymaverick #TheGatherint2022. ‘Mostly because the wind and the sun cannot be stolen’, #DeRuyter said. #eskom
Pauli Van Wyk@PaulivW

So if #GwedeMantashe calls #AndredeRuyter “a policeman” at #Eskom, I just want to know what did De Ruyter “police” so effectively that it “overthrows” their state and irked #Mantashe and the #ANC to the extent where he had to go? 🧐
