Not CDs (although some do sell CDs) but I've been buying and downloading stuff on Bandcamp lately because Bandcamp doesn't allow AI and I can keep a local copy of everything and support the artists Sick of having to question if new songs are by new artists or AI sloppers
Rich Tate@richtate.com · yesterdayI love how they keep reframing this with language like RETRO TECH BOOM. We've all simply realized it's the only way we own anything. We're not buying out of nostalgia. We're buying so companies can't take it away after we've purchased.
Feeling like an American. Spent the weekend driving 240something miles @_@

I really don't enjoy the heat of summer, so I decided make an autumn princess themed painting! It's definitely time to get ready for Halloween now. c:
If you're not going to look for/use alternatives to Discord, you should at least cancel Nitro. Please just do the bare minimum at the very least. A lot of people put way too much confidence in others doing the hard part for the sake of not giving up some minor convenience. Now's not the time.

I skipped taking commissions last month to catch up, but I'm at the deadline to pay rent and could really use help! I'm open for smaller pieces again to try to keep the work load light, would appreciate spreading the word! 💚 #Art #HumanMade Info/prices here - forms.gle/qCErWJgQLSof...
Another double time iPad piece complete, this one for Ruedi— who graciously let me lean into some art nouveau bullshittery that I am extremely happy with! I’m always excited for the excuse to add a mandala or some flowers lol. Slightly north of 6h total!
My heart goes out to the millions of people struggling to remember how to write "Thanks! Sounds great!" in an email.

What if there were two spotted hyena gnolls who have very similar personality traits to Sapphire and Yasmin called... Jade and Jasmine?
Suda51 and James Gunn aren't involved. JP Universe mentions using AI on their website. This is an empty shell of a sequel. Hard pass.

As a new Harry Potter trailer makes the rounds, it bears repeating that there’s no way to watch this show without supporting J.K. Rowling’s bigotry and the structural violence she’s inflicting on the trans community.
There is no ethical consumption of HBO’s Harry Potter series
You can’t without supporting Rowling’s transphobic bigotry.

Trump is greedy and stupid enough to let the crypto markets touch the money. The Democrats are cowardly and rich enough to not challenge it.
Wacom doing planned obsolescence with a "Thank you for your support" on their staggeringly overpriced products wasn't on my bingo card but I am UNSURPRISED. If you too are in this position, allow me to draw your attention to what's probably your best solution: opentabletdriver.net
Otterboxed Arts@otterboxedarts.bsky.social · 3mo agoSo Wacom finally decided to pull the plug on my Cintiq 13HD. Kind of a barbaric move but I am wondering if anyone knows of a way to ensure continued support, either through a plugin or something of a similar vein. Any input would be appreciated.
I wrote an essay about why I'm done using AI for coding, even if it costs me my job and career: brettcodes.com/im-done-usin... The basic gist is: AI made me a worse, apathetic programmer. I think it's bad for humanity, the planet, and the craft of software engineering. And I'm done using it.
I'm done using AI
Why I'm stopping using AI for coding (and anything else) after using it earnestly for a year and coming to understand the harms it causes on personal, societal, and environmental levels.
