I'm sorry for your loss man. It's never easy facing the day your best friend has to leave this world. I still miss my little buddy even after all these years. I can at least take solace that she lived happy and fulfilled for 8 good years.

The actual space that AI Art tools will be useful is local areas of high detail that can just eat up time, background work and model posing. It obvious works for generating "generic hot woman in bikini" images (as the YT algo will love to let you know the instant it remembers you are male), but AI Art ends up being far more like "casting" in production manufacturing. If you're doing something custom, you can cast in the mold then you have to do clean-up steps. However much clean up depends on the product being made. It ends up being far more of an automation for tasks system than much else. Yes, it's going to kill a number of random art production jobs, but Graphic Designers are still going to always be necessary. Probably more than than ever.
Well, because they aren't family and it's seemingly random. Dude has some good friends, though.
One of my gaming discords had to find local protective services for one of the members because he basically did that at 3 am. If someone says something out of the norm, always check on them. Not because they're thinking of offing themselves, but it means that there is something on their mind they'd like to get out.
Shakespeare's English is still, mostly, grammatically the same. Which is why, once you know what a couple of words became, it's not too bad. Going further back, though, it's a completely alien language. The interesting part is the supremely rapid development from the 100 years right before Shakespeare, though English's main lock-in point was the King James Bible. A fully locally translated religious text locks in a language for a very long time. The actual fact that with just basic spelling updates, a modern English speaker than still understand the original KJV is still historically incredibly wild. The stability of the European languages post-printing press is one of the far less appreciated aspects of written language.
I'll always love the Bard-core trend, and that translation into Anglo-Saxon is fun.
My condolences. It always is painful, but try to remember the good times and release the emotional distress.
we should have stuck to latin

Damn it, Proctor has taken all the fun out of calling him a fag by actually being gay.
A peaceful death with a full belly, surrounded by people who love you is a luxury rarely found in the animal kingdom. You are graceful enough to be giving him something even other humans would give anything for.Goodbye you old fuck, I'm sorry you had to go so soon
This too shall pass man. Be strong. It gets better with time.
But French, Spanish, Italian and so on and so forth are just modern latin.
My impression is that it hallucinates pretty bad when trying to produce fine details, even if it's not as attention-grabbing as limbs out of nowhere.
Shakespeare used Plutarch's lives to construct some of his plays, so I wouldn't be surprised if he also read other extant authors like Procopius. Just you wait until Shakespeare's Secret History (written in Old English) is discovered and it turns out that he was secretly an Angelcynn patriot who railed against the tyrannical yoke of the Northmen and their descendants (just like some of the other early modern authors who larped about how everything was better under the Anglo-Saxons prior to the imposition of the Norman yoke).
To any of you who use external storage devices, how worried are you about all of your drives dying?
I have terabytes upon terabytes of stuff saved on external drives (they're backed up on other drives, but still) and it really stresses me out to think that all of it could be gone someday.
How long do your drives tend to last? Do you expect your drives that are kept in storage to be usable after a long time?

Video files can be pretty big. Especially if you record game footage. 1080p 60 fps will eat up those real fast. 4k... 8k? Forgettaboutit
You can always put your porn onto tape drives, those last a long time.
I don't know what the fuck that is, but I'll look into it. Thanks.
Edit: I found one on Amazon for 4,500 dollars. Should I buy it?
I had a WD 1TB My Book. Fucker was bought in 2010 or earlier, can't fucking remember. The files should still be there, can't access it right now cos the usb and adapter port got pushed inside. WD My Book can last a long ass time. Fully recommended. Seagate's ass.
Edit: check this one, costs less and you can take it anywhere.

Don't do individual drives, always go for some kind of raid system. If you're in a spending mood get a server that can support the amount of drives you need and put them in there. Unraid is an easy operating system for beginners and allows you to combine drives with different capacity as long as the redundancy drive is the biggest. One redundancy drive allows for any one of your drives to die without data loss, two redundancy drives and two can die at once. If you're not as technically confident you can buy an off-the-shelf NAS that fit's your needs and has redundancy built in.
As for how long drives usually last: My server has 12 Drives, all around 10TB. The longest running one has been spinning continuously for over 6 years and 8 months and has spun up (i.e. been turned on) 429 times. They definitely don't all last that long and some will last much longer, it's kind of a gamble. I buy all my drives second hand, which is usually a bad call, but as long as there's redundancy I'm not worried.
5 years is a safe number on a drive. Under regular, normal use, a HDD should last 7ish. However, it's always the lack of redundancy that causes issues. One issue, though, if you want to go with a RAID NAS setup is making sure the Raid controller itself isn't the single-point of failure. Don't ask why I know that one all too well.
Cold storage SSDs would probably last for decades without issue before the cosmic ray exposure finally gets them.
Appreciate the advice. Never heard of a RAID system before. I'll have to look into it.
Thanks.
So I guess this means Dazzle is not happy that Proctor is taking away his beloved husky large men harem.
Gay slapfest abound.
