The shirts aren't even real. The picture was taken in the US airport, the CEO passed off to AI with a prompt of something like "put these 4 people in Lake America shirts" and posted results to her facebook. They weren't even brave enough to buy and wear real shirts, but they fronted to social media they were.

    To be honest, I really liked the surreal dreamlike nature of early AI video. It was completely different than anything else we'd seen.

    I made a couple music videos using it and they're strange. They took a long time to make because the AI model would take a while to render the prompt and sometimes it would vomit out complete garbage. I ended up rendering hundreds of 3-4 second clips then had to wade through it all and cobble it together.

    Funny thing, I did a couple videos at first and then about 8 months later a worked on a couple more. In that short time rendering had vastly improved and the results weren't as weird.

    Funny thing about these 4. That picture was taken in the USA. One of the women posted another picture of her and her husband on the plane aright after and they were not wearing the shirts.

    Trump says Canada has “unreasonably imposed new barriers to United States companies seeking to access the Canadian government procurement market.”

    His solution?

    "...directing federal agencies overseeing government procurement in the United States to remove all products of Canadian origin."

    This reminds me of incels for some reason.

    "Debbie is a fucking bitch and won't fuck me even when I offer to pay her. Fuck Debbie and all the whores who look like her.

    Starts cursing out all attractive women.

    "Why can't I get laid?"

    I'm across the water from you in PEI. Same thing. I've got Bell fibre at my company in town, but my home is hooped for Canadian based internet. We HAD to go with Starfink because it is literally our only option outside of 2 Mbps DSL which is impossible given we need to do video meetings.

    Granted, my house is in the woods in the boonies, but still. I hate giving money to Starfink.

    We evolved into social creatures - apes together strong. The group becomes weak if we are always knocking down or killing our neighbour. If we all work together and gather bananas, then we can feed those in the group who can not gather bananas. Healthy ape brains receive pleasure helping other apes (and animals) in need.

    Of course it all falls apart when we have malfunctioning ape brains in the group who promote hate, greed, and fairy stories of a magic sky ape or we have Musk ape, Trump ape and Zucker Ape who want all the bananas.
