I moved to Linux after Win10 stopped receiving updates. It's WAY better than I expected it would be. Highly recommend people making a cut over. (I used Bazzite, but there's other options out there.)

> Ey calm down now

I don't think anyone here is not calm?

I'm suggesting the set of names to draw from is large. There's tons and tons of names that could be chosen. The of the potentially dozens or hundreds of names that are hugely influential, the first two picked were from the SS?

You could name it Neil, Alan, John, Yuri, Valentina, Katherine, Konstantin, Buzz, Mae, Sally, Sergei, Maxime, Margaret, Katherine, or Mary.

All of whom are well established critical figures in rocketry history. And not members of the SS.

> Not everything is about nazism

Of course not! But sometimes it does involve literal Nazis, in which case it's not not about nazism.

I think that's an extremely ungenerous read here. The thread is about how different size bills and different color bills solve a lot of problems with people who have low vision. Adding braille solves the same problem, but for a subset of people that different sized/color bills solves.

If you have a good, working solution that's widely used worldwide, and someone suggests a worse solution that works for fewer people, it's more than fair to point out that "your solution is worse, less common, and works for fewer people".

Your last sentence is a low effort strawman, I'm not sure why you felt it necessary to include.

It's wild to see you downvoted. Only about 10% of blind people know braille. There are many more people who have visual impairments but are not blind. Braille is not a universal solution (though I would rather have it than not have it).

It was interesting to see how often the OpenAI model changed the face of the child. Often the other two models wouldn't, but OpenAI would alter the structure of their head (making it rounder), eyes (making them rounder), or altering the position and facing of the children in the background.

It's like OpenAI is reducing to some sort of median face a little on all of these, whereas the other two models seemed to reproduce the face.

For some things, exactly reproducing the face is a problem -- for example in making them a glass etching, Gemini seemed unwilling to give up the specific details of the child's face, even though that would make sense in that context.
