Hm I don’t follow. The objects aren’t moving, and what’s the point of pulsing the light

What an appalling comment. You can’t possibly justify what you’re doing so you pretend it’s something “the left” did first. Did the left deport students because they wrote an op-ed article, or went to a protest? Did senior administration officials call for jailing opponents for thought crimes?

They are the billionaire Silicon Valley people who thought it would be cute to use their insane wealth to back a fascist seizure of power by Musk and Trump

We’re about to watch a bunch of “libertarians” and anarcho-capitalists with kindergarten-level opinions about how societies function realize that markets require strong state regulation in order to function

There’s a reason there’s no stock exchange in the jungle

A show-down between a politician and a court whose majority was either appointed by him directly as naked partisans, or by his party

At least one of whom flagrantly accepts “gifts” from right wing activist business leaders with business before the court

I must have missed the part where a bill was passed on this

Or where the incoming administration announced this policy during their campaign

Maybe it was in the announcement where they committed to canceling pediatric cancer research and US AID, which I also missed

That’s 3.3 million estimated deaths caused by DOGE illegally shutting down a congressionally established and funded agency of the US government:

- 1.65 million deaths from AIDS

- 500,000 from lack of vaccines

- 550,000 from lack of food aid

- 290,000 from malaria

- 310,000 from TB

Yes they are. Because Peter Thiel and Elon Musk and half the people in this community have been working for a decade to make that happen. Now joined by Marc Andreesen and a bunch of people who’ve gotten rich off the back of the exact kind of research they’re now decimating for their extremist insane ideological agenda

And when people post about it, they just lie: “no it’s not happening”

Has anyone tried it for handwriting?

So far Gemini is the only model I can get decent output from for a particular hard handwriting task
