@kylelf_ Obviously Midjourney has been training on photographs while Microsoft has been training on Powerpoint clip art. I'm shocked "Clippie" didn't make it in there... But, to the point, I'm concerned whether those are real people's faces or not. I'd hate to be sued by any of them...

Midjourney on left and Microsoft Bing on right, both with the prompt "togetherness" . Microsoft reminds me of a powerpoint slide which is not surprising that it's Microsoft but considering tech came from Openai it is surprising

@JulianFreyCH I believe it was @TimGormanTech who said a “very large database is any database you are uncomfortable handling”. And now I hope I got both quote and attribution right.

The 2-min vignette from "Silent Movie" (1976) of @MelBrooks with Dom Deluise, Marty Feldman, and Sid Caesar with Marcel Marceau is incredible. The irony of Marceau's only known spoken line & Brooks followup "I don't speak French" is comedic perfection. youtube.com/watch?v=IhhS13…

@GoodToGoWSDOT Never received bill, only email without any helpful information other than I owe "$5.4". Hint: I don't own that vehicle anymore. The support number also requires the same missing info, plus automated voicemail does not cite option to talk to agent. Seriously @GoodToGoWSDOT?

I received an email demanding "$5.4" [sic] in unpaid road tolls before penalties are added. OK by me, I didn't know about them before, but I'm good to go. However, the email didn't share info required to pay at goodtogo.com (i.e. "statement ID"). WTF @GoodToGoWSDOT?

Been waiting for this result 2 weeks after testing positive. Big thanks to hotel masseuse in Malta who was QANON. Her conspiracy theories were sad enough (i.e. "Biden outlawed Christianity", etc), but I didn't realize until later that "Q" means "unvaxxed" as well as "idiot"

Lighthearted moments from the Beatles "Get Back" sessions where John and Paul sing "Two Of Us" with their teeth clenched. Both are having a blast, lots of fun, but John just looks utterly demonic... youtube.com/watch?v=vdF0BJ…

On 09-Apr 1942, a bomb struck the Mosta Rotunda in Malta. Unlike most of the 6700 tons of bombs dropped on Malta during WW2, this one didn't explode, a miracle as the church was full. The bare patch left of center is where the bomb entered, and a replica is on display.

@DBAKevlar @TimGormanTech I think the concept with bucket list is that it’s a list of things to do before you die, not a list of ways to kill yourself.

@nathaliejacoby1 Why give oxygen to ignorant fantasies? The constitution provides no path for "reinstatement" of ex-presidents. Only elections. As the old saying goes, don't wrestle with pigs because you'll become just as filthy, and the pigs enjoy it anyway...

@elonmusk There is no constitutional process to "reinstate" an ex-president, other than election. Ex-presidents are not in the line of succession for resignations or impeachment convictions. Why are you increasing ignorance with questions that reinforce foolish fantasies? Don't be evil.
