1. Follow the site-wide rules

2. Be civil
  • Understand the difference between a joke and an insult.
  • Do not harrass or attack users for any reason. This includes using blanket terms, like "every user of thing".
  • Don't get baited into back-and-forth insults. We are not animals.
  • Leave remarks of "peasantry" to the PCMR community. If you dislike an OS/service/application, attack the thing you dislike, not the individuals who use it. Some people may not have a choice.
  • Bigotry will not be tolerated.
    • 3. Post Linux-related content
  • Including Unix and BSD.
  • Non-Linux content is acceptable as long as it makes a reference to Linux. For example, the poorly made mockery of sudo in Windows.
  • No porn, no politics, no trolling or ragebaiting.
    • 4. No recent reposts
  • Everybody uses Arch btw, can't quit Vim, <loves/tolerates/hates> systemd, and wants to interject for a moment. You can stop now.
    • 5. πŸ‡¬πŸ‡§ Language/язык/Sprache
  • This is primarily an English-speaking community. πŸ‡¬πŸ‡§πŸ‡¦πŸ‡ΊπŸ‡ΊπŸ‡Έ
  • Comments written in other languages are allowed.
  • The substance of a post should be comprehensible for people who only speak English.
  • Titles and post bodies written in other languages will be allowed, but only as long as the above rule is observed.
    • 6. (NEW!) Regarding public figuresWe all have our opinions, and certain public figures can be divisive. Keep in mind that this is a community for memes and light-hearted fun, not for airing grievances or leveling accusations.
  • Keep discussions polite and free of disparagement.
  • We are never in possession of all of the facts. Defamatory comments will not be tolerated.
  • Discussions that get too heated will be locked and offending comments removed.
    • Β

    Important: never execute code or follow advice that you don't understand or can't verify, especially here. The word of the day is credibility. This is a meme community -- even the most helpful comments might just be shitposts that can damage your system. Be aware, be smart, don't remove France.

    If you're going to recycle xkcd jokes at least change the art style a bit

    [–] samus12345@sh.itjust.works 11 points 3 days ago (1 children)

    Prompt the AI to change the art style a bit, you mean?

    [–] RandomVideos@programming.dev 5 points 3 days ago (2 children)

    Do you have any evidence this is AI generated?

    [–] Rusty@lemmy.ca 10 points 2 days ago (1 children)

    AI generated comics usually have the off-white background and thick lines, like in this comic. But reverse image search finds this from 2018, so it's unlikely AI generated.

    Interesting. If you'll notice, the comic you linked isn't the same as this one. This appears to be a pointless AI copy of the original:

    The off-white background, the thick lines, AND the guy staring at the viewer rather than where he'd actually be looking, as he is in the original, are all AI indicators.

    Funny. I was thinking the ai post leaned towards Don Hertzfeldt's style, then saw the "original" and it look even more like Hertzfeldt (see hands), which means ai even manages to fuck up stick-figure fingers!

    Edit: btw, good eye/attention to detail!

    There are so many AI comics posted here I've come to recognize their tells pretty well. It's like an uncanny valley sort of feeling. It kind of surprises me that it's still so bad at making simple drawings look like a person did them.

    [–] Rusty@lemmy.ca 3 points 2 days ago (1 children)

    Now I see that it's different, at first glance I thought it was the same.

    [–] samus12345@sh.itjust.works 7 points 2 days ago

    It set off so many AI-generated alarms that I was surprised it might have been actually created by a person, prompting a closer look.

    [–] samus12345@sh.itjust.works 1 points 2 days ago (1 children)

    No, it just gives me that vibe. Is there evidence that it isn't?

    [–] RandomVideos@programming.dev 2 points 2 days ago (1 children)

    There is the consistency

    I did not expect AI to be able to perfectly copy a drawing 3 times

    [–] samus12345@sh.itjust.works 2 points 2 days ago

    Ha, true enough! But it has been established to be AI.

    [–] NONE_dc@lemmy.world 1 points 3 days ago (1 children)

    Are you referring to me or the original poster I quoted in the "source" link?

    [–] the_crotch@sh.itjust.works 6 points 3 days ago

    Whoever made this comic

    [–] some_guy@lemmy.sdf.org 3 points 3 days ago (1 children)

    Make me a scary sandwich.

    Ahhh, the classics never get old.
