  • Moved onto Matrix a while ago because of this. Gonna be real, Discord is better but all Matrix asked me for was hardware verification. I fucking hate this ID verification thing. Like we are going to see a sharp spark in identity theft going forward.

    …and shit, I might be part of it. I had to verify with an ID to get my CompTIA tests, which I passed. I am still arguing with Pearson to delete my personal data, but I might be in the shitter with all the others getting their identity stolen.


  • Yeah, I feel that. Again, I used to be pro AI and my homie did too. We used to get into chats and share AI slop with one another but soon I felt so empty.

    Generating AI images feels like gambling in a way. Like it can be funny when it fails, really funny. But passed a point I just felt so fucking empty inside. Was talking to my buddy about it and he agreed, so we both got into drawing for ourselves and felt a lot better lol.

    Like okay, we never should have from the start, but both of us now do art on out own. He draws in a notebook and I do pixel art, but I did learn through a very miserable, sloppy journey that the process is just as crucial as the outcome. As a guy who works IT, I feel like I should have know this from the start but oh well.

    Did I make a point? I’m gonna be honest, I kinda feel like a just rambled. Like I agree because I was a victim of the slop, I guess.
