I wish they didn’t feel the need to fake it with upscaling. In my experience upscaling looks like shit every time, whether it’s a video or game. Most of the time a good 1080p video with good bit rate will look way better than a 4k upscale.

Your math is wrong. If you want the creator to still get $5 with apple stealing 30% you would need to pay ~43% extra.

$5/0.7 = $7.14

1/0.7 = 1.42857

It’s incredible we don’t already have laws governing companies attempting to offload accountability to computers and software. In this sense an LLM isn’t really special at all, it’s just another form of software, but because techbros have called it AI there’s this implicit assumption it can be responsible… A human is always responsible in the end, whether it’s the simplest chatbot or the most overbuilt wasteful chatbot ever conceived or a phone charger or whatever.

Not all of it was exactly because I went to therapy, but therapy opened the door to examining myself in a non-judgemental way. I started going because I thought I had adhd and wanted help with it, along with crippling social anxiety. When I started I thought I was a cishet man with adhd. After a while I realized I’m actually a bi trans woman with adhd and autism. Somewhat recently I’ve started to think I might also be aromantic, but I’m not really sure. On a more therapy note I also discovered just how profound the damage from my parents/upbringing was. I sometimes wish I could make them really understand how much they hurt me and how much it has held me back in life.
