Blindfolded Speedrunner Completes Mario 64 In Under 20 Minutes | Time Extension
  • In the context of speedrunning, Super Mario 64 has various completion categories, including 16-star, 70-star, and 120-star runs. The 16-star run, which this player completed, uses specific glitches and techniques to access the final Bowser fight with fewer stars than normally required

  • People who say that AI can't be used as a tool to help artists clearly have never tried using AI as a tool. Everything you've written here is untrue.

    Artists can manually curate unique datasets to create LoRAs. They can draw from their own photographs, drawings, paintings, etc., and then coordinate prompts and parameters to blend their custom LoRAs with other creators' LoRAs/models/checkpoints to craft something unique. The process can be even more involved with tools like ControlNet, where artists can sketch an outline of the scene by hand. I.e., you can have precise control over where the pencil strokes go.

    The tools available right now do that

  • Photography is widely recognized as an art form, even though the scene exists independently and the photographer "simply" frames and captures the shot.

    A better driving analogy might be Tesla's current level of self-driving, where you have to keep a hand on the wheel and eyes on the road the whole time, and remain in charge of all the critical decisions. When someone arrives in a Tesla and says, "I drove here," no one goes "ackchyually..." Even if we follow your analogy, it’s the individual’s idea to reach that destination- often a novel place no one has even been to before.

    Creative individuals curate unique datasets, which can take countless hours of manual work, to create LoRAs. They often draw from their own photographs, drawings, paintings, etc., and then coordinate prompts and parameters to blend their custom LoRAs with other creators' LoRAs/models/checkpoints to craft something unique. These creations exist only because they had the vision and put in the effort to realize it. The process can be even more involved with tools like ControlNet, where artists might even sketch an outline of the scene by hand.

    A quick selfie might not be considered art, but intentional expression through creatively capturing a scene is (photography). Similarly, a quick generation via Copilot for a meme might not qualify as art, but intentional expression through creative generation certainly does.

    Dog Whistles
  • Idk, I've had three clients diagnosed with schizophrenia and, while one was fairly racist, the other 2 were rad as hell, and I don't think the bigotry had anything to do with the racist one's mental health- just culture.

    In fact, I think bigotry is a pretty normal human thing to experience. Psychotic symptoms (and poor mental health in general) can certainly lead to and exacerbate bigotry, but I don't think pathologizing bigotry itself makes much sense. I mean yeah if someone is experiencing bigoted delusions/obsessions/compulsions/etc then we should call that what it is, but bigotry itself is typically better explained by culture and natural human behavior

    Edit: but I do like the idea of coopting it. I think it would be hilarious to respond to someone using it as a dog whistle with something like "haha I'm [autistic/ADHD/BP/etc] too." I think that would really rustle their jimmies

  • I never learned right from wrule, but I trust DMV Lady
  • But it's the most distinguishable state shape and easily the most famous US state. Don't they at least teach about William S. McLoughlin in world history? Everyone knows "that story" about when he worked as an aide to Portland Mayor Baker in 1913
