The future was yesterday.
Cool pics of cool retro-ish stuff. Moved here form !spacetech because more and more of my stuff wasn't space stuff.
If I know an image was made with AI, I'll label it as AI. Beyond that, I'm not gonna spend time investigating how every image was created. If it looks interesting, I post it. Whether it came from a camera, Photoshop, an artist, or AI isn't something I take too seriously.
If you know how an image was made, feel free to say so. If you don't know, don't worry about it.
Rule 1: No serial downvoting. This includes downvoting multiple posts just because they involve AI. Let’s keep Lemmy positive. Automod on duty.
Rule 2: Be civil. Play nice. And If you don't like it here, just find a different community.
Rule 3: AI is fine. If it looks cool, it is cool, babe! Label if ya want. Or not. I don't care.
Rule 4: Don't just call content “slop,” or use similar insults, unless you also contribute content yourself.
Rule 5: Weird that I have to make this an actual rule, but here we go: No advocating violence or murder.
If you don't like these rules, I suggest you create you own community with your own rules. Lemmy can always use more content!

Such a fun and great time to be a kid. I remember when a kid I was friends with, missed a day of school. I stopped by his house after school to find out why. Turns out he had just gotten a game system and he was playing the Pac-Man knock off called "Chomp," while being "sick."
It was a Friday, and I put my book bag down by the door, and immediately called my mom (on a corded phone that was attached to the wall in the kitchen) and said, "I'm spending the night with Kevin tonite, bye!"
And we played that fucking thing all weekend. I think there was Chomp, Pitfall Harry, and some Space Invaders knock off.
His mom and dad bought us pizza and soda and let us have at it. We slept in sleeping bags right there on the floor in front of the TV. And it was freaking heaven! I was 12 years old. Great memories! So fun. So carefree. Hard not to miss those days!
