I just started playing it recently. I played around with those elevators way too long. :D
I started drawing seriously when I was 14. Looking at my old artwork, I didn't start improving fast until I was around 19 or 20. Not to say I didn't improve at all during those five to six years but the pace did get faster once I had "learned to learn" so to say. That is to say it can take a lot of patience to get to a point where you actually start seeing improvement fast enough to stay motivated. But it is 100% worth it because at the end you have a lot of things you have created with your own two hands.
And regarding the point on physical limitations, I can't blame anyone in a situation like that for using AI if they have no other chance for realising their imaginations. For others, it is completely possible and not reserved for people who have some mythical innate talent. Just grab a pen or a brush and enjoy the process of honing a fine skill regardless of the end result. ❤️
This whole AI craze has just shown me that people are losing faith in their own abilities and their ability to learn things. I've heard so many who use AI to generate "artwork" argue that they tried to do art "for years" without improving, and hence have come to conclusion that creativity is a talent that only some have, instead of a skill you can learn and hone. Just because they didn't see results as fast as they'd have liked.
Yes, let's outlaw a thing that barely happens at all. Because that's the most important issue that needs to be focused on.
Finland here. Tipping is in no way expected and it's actually rather atypical to tip at all. Though no one will say no if you do decide to tip!
I make a meal plan for every week and only buy ingredients I need for those meals. Saves me money by having me buy only the things I definitely need, and time by having to make only a single trip to the grocery store each week.
No worries here. Just showing that alternative formats exist to anyone who doesn't want to post Steven Crowder.
I'd scream "oh no!" so the wicked fairy wouldn't figure out it's fun for me and change their mind, and then I'd just chill with my dog or cat life. If I could be taken care of by a trusted person or people, that would be great.
I've had a field day while writing my thesis recently, realising I could bypass the paywalls by accessing the papers through the university proxy. It's still bs, though, because it leaves this stuff only accessible to researchers and not your regular people who may be interested.
Though like PrinceWith999Enemies said, many paper writers will happily send you a copy if you email them about it.
I also narrow my eyes whenever I see the word "family" now.
