Pixiv's AI Strategy Paying Off by Mk23simp in c/fuck_ai@lemmy.world

[-] Mk23simp 6 points 14 hours ago

I definitely appreciate Pixiv's ability to filter AI generated images. Although from my understanding it depends on the uploader self-reporting so it's probably not perfect. It at least gets most of the AI images out of searches though. I tried looking on Xfolio and it doesn't seem to have as much art yet, but I will probably try to keep an eye on it.

They're no longer billionaires at that point, their heirs are (or multi-millionaires if it's divided enough).

Currently my plan is to do my social transition all at once and to start HRT after that point. Maybe that's naive, and maybe that will change, but for now that's my plan.

Thanks!

I would definitely like to look into organizing. And I think that I will be able to handle being vocal and advocating for myself and my fellows.

I've looked up several voice training tutorials and I think I have a plan that will work for me to do it. I just need to put in the time to do it. I think it will be really fun for me to have better control of my voice, so that's a strong motivator.

Introduction (self.mtf)

Hi,

I'm a recently cracked egg, and I figure I might as well introduce myself here.

I made it to age 31 before I figured it out. I've been dating a trans girl for over 3 years before realizing that I also am one, so I'm coming into it with a lot of knowledge, and as soon as my mind was opened to it I very quickly became sure of it. On the plus side, that means that I don't have any doubts about it myself.

So far I've told my girlfriend, therapist, parents, and some online friends. Mostly they've taken it well (My therapist and girlfriend were apparently expecting it before I realized it myself), although my dad has been somewhat resistant. I've been trying to convince him that it's right for me, with moderate success. I think I will be able to bring him around, with some more time. I've been too chicken to tell others that I know IRL, so far.

Also... now is not really a great time to be transitioning, given the current state of the world, especially the US (where I live). I think I definitely want to go ahead with it anyways, but I'll probably take some time before I pull the trigger on a social transition, and try to prepare some things beforehand. In particular, I want to do voice training in advance, and probably work on some fashion and makeup skills so I can immediately transition my voice and surface level appearance when I social transition.

I don't know if my new employer (starting next month) will be accepting of it, either, so maybe I want to work that job for a bit to get experience and test the waters before I decide how to proceed. I probably want to get some experience from that job before I bounce from it, so it would be ideal if they are accepting.

So he's resigning from his position, right?

What's it ruled when by Mk23simp in c/onehundredninetysix

[-] Mk23simp 39 points 4 days ago

I'm pretty sure that's called "derealization". Depersonalization is more about feeling disconnected from yourself rather than disconnected from reality.

And depersonalization is also a secret form of gender dysphoria they don't tell you about, just to confuse you.

It's not that, it's that I'm moving to a different state and he's not licensed to see patients in that state. :P

Tim Sweeney doesn't hold back: if you think the Epic Games launcher is bad, it's because it is by Mk23simp in c/games@sh.itjust.works

IMO they should have put their money into making it good before pushing it on users so aggressively, instead of apparently never since it's been years and they still haven't made the user experience good.

I studied computer science, is that enough science to get me out of here?

Does anyone here have aphantasia without SDAM? (self.aphantasia)

submitted 5 months ago by Mk23simp to c/aphantasia@lemmy.world

I found out about SDAM recently and it seems like I definitely have it, and from everything I've heard it has a lot of overlap with aphantasia. I'm wondering if it's even possible to separate them or they're part of the same thing.

I'm curious if anyone here has the experience of aphantasia without SDAM, and what their experience is like if that's the case. Like, how does one read those episodic memories without a mind's eye?

'I want to acknowledge that we messed up': NZXT addresses concerns about its controversial Flex gaming PC rental program and commits to taking action by Mk23simp in c/games@lemmy.world

[-] Mk23simp 129 points 5 months ago

NZXT Flex customers have never experienced a pre-tax subscription price increase and will never experience one unless they decide to switch subscription tiers.

I think they're forgetting the part where GN themselves were a NZXT flex customer who experienced subscription price increases. So this statement is already proven to be false before they even said it.
