So letting a bunch of isolated inbred hermits in the middle of nowhere decide everything instead is a better way of doing things?

I basically just described my actual thoughts about the song, though. The opening is a banger, the part from "I see a little silhouetto of a man" to "Beelzebub has a devil put aside for me, for me, for me" is kind of a mess, then it goes to a bit that sounds like it should have been the opener of a third song, before finally finishing on something that actually matches the style of the first bit. The whole thing is a weird patchwork that somehow became a hit.

But I would LOVE to hear some complaints about Bohemian Rhapsody.
Wish granted. It's a haphazard mish-mash of two potentially-good songs and one frantic pile of word salad, resulting in a scattered, inconsistent mess.

The King is dead. Long live the King. The people going after these sites are just playing a game of whack-a-mole. New sites will always sprout up to fill in the gap.

That's not far off of something that happened to me once a few years ago. My computer suddenly started struggling one day, and I quickly figured out that my hard drive suddenly had 500 gigs or so of extra data somewhere. I had to find a tool that would let me see how much space a given folder was taking up, and eventually I found an absolutely HUMONGOUS error log file. After I cleared it out, the file rapidly filled up again when I used a program I'd been using all the time. I think it was Minecraft or something. Anyway, my duck tape solution was to just make that log file read-only, since the error in question didn't actually affect anything else.

We've all been there. Something goes wrong, so you call customer service. What answers is a bizarre, arcane mess of an answering machine where you have to puzzle out exactly how company x categorizes customer issues when all you want is to talk to a human being. Saying "Complaint" cuts through all of that, but you might need to wait on hold for a bit. Just make sure you're nice to the person on the other end.

Bread is a requirement for something to be a sandwich, so you'll have to convince me that a tortilla is bread. You might be able to make a case for the soft flour tortilla, but I just don't see how hard corn tortillas can possibly fit under the umbrella of "bread".

I was always a fan of Mednaffe, a GUI frontend for Mednafen, for all of my NES, SNES, and GBA emulation needs. Of course, that's all a bit moot now that I have a handheld.

That wasn't even the first time Trek did the "catching up to a sleeper ship" plot. TOS did it earlier, and then they made a movie out of that episode.

I live across street from one of these where a restaurant used to be. I don't know enough to love or hate the idea of these buildings, but this one's a damn eyesore. The siding panels are various shades of pale grayish blue, with fucking CAUTION VEST YELLOW panels randomly sprinkled in. It's just this big plain box with tiny-ass windows and the worst color combination I've ever seen.

The right to swing your arm ends where it would hit my face. You like the vroom vroom noises? Nobody cares. You make the vroom vroom noises in the middle of a neighborhood with a bunch of bystanders around who were minding their own business? Everyone cares. I experience physical pain from loud noises. They don't just annoy me. They HURT. I'm that sensitive to noise. Keep your roaring shitbucket out in the boonies where the sound won't knock me over.

In my family it was variations of "Hello, Joe's whatever. Insert rhyme here."
One of my favorites was "Joe's mortuary, you stab 'em we slab 'em."

There are still 20 more letters that can be used as stand-ins. Things will get interesting if you try to go past Base 36, though.

Base 16 is typically represented with letters being used as the extra numerals, so it would end up being F+1. Problem solved.

The time to vote against Biden was back in the primaries. We can try again during the next primary, but if we fuck around during the general, we're going to find out how much worse a second Trump term will be.

Is that taxidermy?
I've been on a bit of a blue/orange spree recently, and I really like how this one turned out. Process: On a whim, I downloaded this image from another Artbreeder user: ![](https://lemmy.world/pictrs/image/556de96f-7afb-408e-95e7-e9d57912f39b.jpeg) In GIMP, I duplicated the image into four layers and used Gradient Map to have a version in black/orange, white/orange. black/blue, and white/blue, and selectively erased bits of each layer until I was satisfied, ending up with this: ![](https://lemmy.world/pictrs/image/f4b53307-7205-457c-8bd3-24f79e2630a1.jpeg) Finally, I fed that back into Artbreeder, messed with my prompt, added noise after a few rolls didn't go the way I wanted, and ended up with this input: ![](https://lemmy.world/pictrs/image/8faf5573-fb1c-4158-86c5-cfdc437c2373.png)
Rendered for AB's Embroidery contest. Screenshot of inputs: ![](https://lemmy.world/pictrs/image/0c09e0c3-7919-438d-97aa-a618a66b9cfb.png) For the Bob Ross, I took a previous render, loaded it into GIMP, slapped a frame over it, and cut out the corners. Then I saved it and uploaded it back into Artbreeder. The wood was a stock image of some cutting boards that I found with Artbreeder's internal search feature. I cut out what I wanted and stretched it to fit the canvas as my background.
Rolled this earlier today on Artbreeder when I was trying to make portraits of wholesome fellows in this style. Decided to share it here. Inputs: This image: ![](https://lemmy.world/pictrs/image/7a371338-5280-4a4b-8e24-560e7a92db6b.jpeg) Prompt: steve irwin, crocodile hunter, watercolor by kentaro miura, norman rockwell, stanley artgerm, vibrant pastels, crocodiles in background. AI: 71, Steps: 30, Guidance: 12, Seed: 33, Model: SDXL, Mode: img2img I also rolled some Carl Sagan, Bob Ross, and Fred Rogers images.
Generated for Artbreeder's sword contest. I'm pretty happy with it, so I thought I'd share.
