There are two main reasons I don't use AI video generation. One, it's crap. Also, I am very invested in art, not content, or product, so fuck that. Two: I work in noir, dark, and other themes. "Give me a 30 second video suggesting a man gets garotted" results in "We have banned you for "safety""

The reason for this is that "600mi" means "300mi in normal conditions" because 600mi is at 20mph, nobody in the car, driving on a flat road with no aircon, etc. I have an EV motorcycle with "111mi range" which goes to 55 at highway speed, with hills, a cold morning, etc.

Saw a post that was basically like "an EV needs to have over 600 miles range" because it implied stopping to charge at all wasn't an option. On normal highways, not in Alaska. If you don't get out of your car for 8 hours at a time you need medical attention and a divorce.

VOTE! To change things! Except that the corporate Dems don't want change. VOTE! Even though any change they would try, even if they wanted to, would be blocked by SCOTUS. VOTE VOTE VOTE! For harm reduction! Even though we've given Trump the votes for ICE, etc. Point that out? "Cool story, Putinbot"

Gotta love threads. "Guess I'll have the Irn Bru and heroin" as a Trainspotting joke was removed -"counselling to take illegal substances" I swear to fuck they need to start hiring people to read things. Hey, weird how they're not this trigger happy when it's homophobic or Nazi death threats.

Ah yes, now RealClearPolitics is saying that anyone who wants healthcare and a living wage is some kind of Pol Pot worshipping Marxist who wants political murder. I truly can't with these people.
