Maybe this goes a bit deeper than the question intended, but I’ve made and shared two patches that I had to apply locally for years before they were merged into the base packages.

The first was a patch in 2015 for SDL2 to prevent the Sixaxis and other misbehaving controllers to not use uninitialized axes and overwrite initialized ones. Merged in 2018.

The second was a patch in the spring of 2021 for Xft to not assume all the glyphs in a monospaced font to be the same size. Some fonts have ligatures which are glyphs that represent multiple characters together, so they’re actually some multiple of the base glyph size. Merged in the fall of 2022.

As the parent of an ODD child thank you. I don’t have the energy left in me to try to explain to my “society”, let alone strangers on the internet, that my child is compulsively defiant due to an inflated fight/flight/freeze response. And no, your parenting opinions aren’t going to “solve” her behavior, if her psychiatrist, psychologist, and therapist don’t have magic answers.

I appreciate the reference. I do always want to credit the original artist.

    Either I have a headache or some form of red/green blindness I wasn’t previously aware of.

    There are two kinds of people in the world. Those who have to ask how much garlic to put in the recipe and those who know you measure that shit with your heart.

    Maxxus OP ,

    That edit is on point. Love me some potato salad.

    Maxxus OP ,

    Wasn’t mine. Moldy Monday and all.

    Maxxus OP ,

    Judging by the responses, I feel I should convey I relate to the professor and absurdity is that the student would ask such dumb off-topic question.

    As for the question itself, people like what they like, they don’t need to justify themselves. Which is what makes question dumb.

    Maxxus ,

    I feel like both rules suffer from the same problem of spectrum. We can all point to a bad moldy/ai post and point to a good moldy/ai post. The issue is going to be those ones in the grey space between. It’s like the threshold test for obscenity.

But I know it when I see it, and the motion picture involved in this case is not that." -Justice Potter Stewart

    I agree ai generation can be exploitative, but I don’t believe it’s only exploitative. I’m sure there are fine artists out there who can use it responsibly to make genuine art. I think it’s like the Unity game engine. There are plenty of games pumped out that are just trash trying to make quick money, but there’s also gems being made by people with passion.

    This genuinely made me burst into laughter. Well done 196er.

    Maxxus OP ,

    I didn’t censor it, but it’s probably enough to pass by some image recognition.

    Maxxus OP ,

    This image was saved way before AI image generation was a thing. This is a real McCoy.
