I could talk for hours on this, but the simple answer is, a well made blank is just the board they paint the pro's name on.

If you want to support a brand or rider, do it.

There are some exceptions, like Andy Anderson's heron series, but at the end of the day, a $30 blank from CCS is as good as any pro model.

I'm seeing a ton of AI generated Feynman stuff on YouTube lately. Don't know enough to know if this is his audio lectures just with AI graphics, or fan generated stuff like they are doing with Brian Cox.

Either way, I'm getting so tired of playing "Is this just made up AI crap" when looking for a science or history program to unwind with.

I know it's old man yelling at clouds, but I really wish they required AI slop to be labeled.

So specific uncommon words like "wordage"

AI bot! We have an AI bot over here!

There has to be a screen grab of Ron Swanson we could paste over the orange turd that they wouldn't notice.

Are you kidding me, the ven diagram of ICE and NRA has to be pretty round.

This is what so many of these assholes want.

And Jan 6th was a peaceful protest.

Get the fuck out of here, we've all seen the videos.

Anyone who claimed Ashley Babbit was a hero damned well better be falling over themselves condemning ICE shooting Renee Good.

But no, they are calling it domestic terrorism.

Fuck every single one of these assholes.

My latest conspiracy theory is that is why so much money is being dumped into AI. They want to make AI video so convincing that when the real videos come out, everyone can claim it's AI.

My brother and sister were ordained to perform my younger brothers wedding. This joke had a lot of legs that weekend.

I'm considered an expert in my field, and with almost 20 years experience I tried what you are suggesting.

The thing all us tech geeks forget about when starting a business, is all the stuff that actually goes into the running a business part of it.

You want to focus on the work, but there are bills, invoices, client and project management, etc.

I had clients, I had projects, but I didn't have nearly enough time in the day to handle all of it.

Then clients started paying late, causing all kinds of fees to stack up. So even when I had time to do the work, I was distracted and nothing got done the way I wanted.

I tried hiring an admin, but it was too little too late. In the end I went back to being the in house guy at a large company, where I get to focus on the stuff I am good at and enjoy.

I'm not saying don't do it, I'm saying be very very aware about all the other elements before going off on your own.

Bonfire from Dark Souls, because you don't want to lose your soul by failing to save progress.

At one of the no kings rallies, I feel something hit me in the back. Turn around to see a small girl running over to get the large Styrofoam sign that the wind had blown out of her hands.

She looks up saying "I'm sorry!".

"It's ok, I'm not a space shuttle, I can survive being hit by a foam block".

Crickets.

In a few years time, my girlfriend went from "I haven't played games since NES" to having a platinum in most soulsborn games.

Eldin ring was the first game that was new to both of us, and we did our first play through co-op and had a wonderful time.

Went back and played through the trilogy and Bloodborn. It was my first time going past Yarnim, and the first time I actually got Bloodborn.

The most memorable I think was when we started fresh characters to do the Elden ring DLC.
