Bandcamp muss dringend was für bessere Übersicht tun.

Ich kann am Desktop keine einzelnen Tracks direkt verlinken, also verlinke ich die Albumseite.

Und da gibt es seeeehr viel. Gaaanz unten findet sich dann ein kleiner Link zum Track. Ich hab euch das mal markiert.

UI-Hölle 😕 ...

@thomas Yeah, that’s also annoyed me for quite a while now. They are past due a better UI refresh.

I'm rewatching and it's even funnier the second time. While it clearly has very specific Australian cultural touchstones, if you're from any small town in the Western world, it still feels very familiar. You've known people like this. The clash of modern sensibilities and conservative small town mentality will resonate with people, even if they aren't from Australia. It's also a great with clever twists and turns. I hope a second series happens.

https://watch.metalhead.club is still in the "proof of concept" stage unfortunately.

Maybe some day I'll have the time to clean up / polish my code and publish it.

I am half way through watching the interview of @pfefferle by @deadsuperhero & it is really good!

📹 S1 Episode 8: WordPress-ActivityPub with Matthias Pfefferle https://spectra.video/w/nVQAzfWyC64DUfqGQcnCfp

I thought it was interesting that when @photomatt was focued on bringing to , Pfefferle advocated introducing to the en mass.

@darnell @pfefferle @deadsuperhero @photomatt @wedistributemedia @hello ATM, the Fediverse feels fairly svelte. Bringing in a massive bloated mess like Wordpress seems like a terrible idea.

@pfefferle @darnell @deadsuperhero @photomatt @wedistributemedia @hello You tell me. I’m not a dev. All I know is that every time I’ve tried to make a blog with it, it was an awful, confusing, complicated, messy experience. And everyone always suggests it, like it the obvious, default choice. It’s one of the reasons I gave up trying to have my own website. I’m not a fan.

Let's stop using the term, "ai art," and start saying, "ai content."

They want us to call our work, "content," and they want us to call their junk, "art." No.

shanesemler,
@shanesemler@metalhead.club avatar

@ward I guess that depends on what you mean by "they". From what I've seen, it's largely nerds making pictures of "waifus", hentai, and Batman. But there are serious artists working with AI. Rob Sheridan for example: https://www.rob-sheridan.com. I also consider myself a serious artist. I do traditional painting, but I also experiment with AI generated imagery. Does that make us villains?

shanesemler,
@shanesemler@metalhead.club avatar

@ward I get what you’re saying but what if I alter it in photoshop, does that make it mine? There are online apps that allow you to paint in real time and have the ai fill in the detail. Is that mine? You know what I mean, where do you draw the line?

@shanesemler@metalhead.club avatar

The stock xfce4-panel Clock *calendar for some weird reason has the week number hard coded. So you can't hide it. I can't think of a single time in my life I thought to myself, "gee, I wonder what week out of 52 we are currently in". This is such a strange choice.

*edit, I didn't specify I was writing about the calendar that pops up when clicking on the clock.
