Thanks :) not seen Cotswold Crunch in store.
Tried again today. π΅*Every loaf is different...*π΅
I think you're overstating the significance of those edits and comments.
Same for Voyager, Thunder, and Jerboa. Can't work out which one to go to.
It's not free. We pay for the NHS through tax. It's free at the point of use.
This is a seemingly perfect dandy stance to take, right up until you can't afford private health care and then you're the victim of medical negligence.
I don't really have much to say that hasn't been said already, so just know that I feel for you man. That's a really tough rap; you can do it, though - you are doing it and it is so so worth it.
When you look back, you won't remember the crap - but the few precious diamond moments you can snatch from it all will shine.
There's sometimes a lot of benefit to be had with throwing caution to the wind and blowing the routine and rules out the window. So stick Bluey on all Saturday and cuddle up with the kids with a hot chocolate. Sundays are for worries, after all.
It is tasty! The multigrain flour isn't as malt-y as country grain flours I've tried before.
I think I might have under-proofed the dough a bit as the crumb is very close in parts. Need to learn more about it though.
How did you get on?
Yeah, I have a hand held drill with hammer - takes fucking ages and way too easy to damage the drill bit.
A proper pneumatic corded drill is definitely something I would have got in a heartbeat if I could afford it.
Thankfully my dad is a tool nut, so got me one anyway.
Got vehemently disagreed with, without counter-argument, for making the point that 'AI' art already requires a decent amount of human input and knowledged tinkering to get an adequate result.
I, for example, can't sit down and make Midjourney output a human with only five fingers per hand. I'm sure I wouldn't have to look too hard to find a tutorial on how to solve that hurdle, and the effort is no doubt a lot less than painting it myself. But my point stands that 'AI'/LLMs aren't doing diddly useful squat on their own and won't be for a while because so far they just do not understand abstract reasoning and so need humans to accommodate that element.
I recall an excellent article that pointed out 'AI' doesn't understand a prompt that says 'no giraffes' because people do not label every image on the internet that does not contain giraffes with 'no giraffes'.
So, waffle coming to a close, I absolutely agree with you. As it stands - and likely for a long while yet - 'AI'/LLMs are just a tool that can be helpful to artists in certain situations.
The point of the OP microblog still stands though; our system prioritises made up money trees over actual human life.
