@deepman_k @ZacksJerryRig For six decades bar Rabin, who an Israeli nationalist assassinated, you have democratically elected leaders who have openly expressed their plans to continue to illegally occupy Palestine, expand illegal settlements, and persecute Palestinians. A truly monstrous society.

@elonmusk Yes, left overcorrected (a LOT), but was it worth it to destroy American democracy for that?
I don't think so.

@Yesmanyesplease @AFGlobalStrike They didn't have nukes before. Also, the enriched Ur was not found or removed and Iran is now allowed to continue with the program, so nothing changed. No, actually it got worse for all of us, except for your clown press and his fam that got richer.

@bps_space This is akin to try and simulate the universe at an atom level. I suggest you simplify your design by adding light winglets to stabilize after deployment.

This going to a thread about the quality of @imagine vs @PixVerse_ The prompt was 100% the same. The Start image attached. Poll at the end. (1/4)

English

Consider the prompt below:
Scene:
Interior of observatory dome with concrete walls and floor. Large telescope structure dominating the space. Control desk with multiple monitors showing starfield data and blue scientific interfaces. Faint reflections of red, blue, and yellow lights on surfaces.
Characters:
LionWalker — bald man with subtle glowing tattoo patterns on neck and arms, wearing dark shirt and shorts, calm and focused.
Dudley — middle-aged man with glasses and dark jacket, standing on the right.
Action:
LionWalker stood close to the base of the telescope, and began what looked like a robot mime dance.
Arms and legs jerked about in small precise movements. In response, the doors on the dome started to peel open. Electromuscle bands on the telescope cradle flexed silently, and the fat cylinder began to turn, aligning itself on the horizon where the Dyson Pair stars were due to rise.
Camera:
Medium-wide side angle.
Camera slowly tracks slightly to the right, keeping LionWalker and the desk in frame.
Stable motion, no shake.
Lighting:
Cool blue ambient light from monitors and equipment.
Subtle colored reflections (red, blue, yellow) on the floor and metal surfaces.
Soft shadows, realistic lighting.
Style:
Cinematic sci-fi, semi-realistic anime style, high detail.
English

Both videos capture the sci-fi control room vibe well from that starting image—detailed lighting, glowing tattoos, and the massive telescope rig.
Grok Imagine's version feels more natural: the bald guy turns, gestures conversationally, and the sky/atmosphere shifts smoothly like a real interaction unfolding. Movements stay grounded and story-like.
PixVerse V6 amps up the energy with bigger jumps and fist pumps—fun and dynamic, but a bit more exaggerated and less fluid in the character posing.
I'd say Imagine has the edge in coherent, realistic animation quality here. Solid work from both!

@starframe_lab @grok @PixVerse_ @grok Can you check both posts in this thread and let me know what you think about the Imagine and PixVerse video gen quality?

BREAKING: Iran has delivered its highly anticipated "10-point" response to the US' "15-point peace plan."
Iran's 10-point plan includes:
1. Guarantee that Iran will not be attacked again
2. Permanent end to the war, not just a ceasefire
3. End to Israeli strikes in Lebanon
4. Lifting of all US sanctions on Iran
5. End to all regional fighting against Iranian allies
6. In return, Iran would open the Strait of Hormuz
7. Iran would impose a Hormuz fee of $2 million per ship
8. Iran would split these fees with Oman
9. Iran to provide rules for safe passage through Hormuz
10. Iran to use Hormuz fees for reconstruction instead of reparations
President Trump's "deadline" for a peace deal with Iran is 25 hours away.

@pepel_klaasa Exactly my thoughts these days. Not sure how to approach this from the humane perspective.
English

I get the sense that the whole world is dealing with mixed feelings right now: on one hand, the IRGC and the ayatollahs are seen as pure evil – there’s broad consensus on that.
On the other hand, it is already clear that the current approach won’t get rid of the IRGC.
And if that’s clear, then even the most hardline opponents of the IRGC are, deep down, thinking: honestly, it wouldn’t be so bad if the US were to seriously embarrass themselves there and finally rein in their arrogance.
