I had this discussion on Lemmy, but there are no AI artists.

Unless they can grab art tools and have the same amount of effort making the same image they "created" with AI, including training and practice, then I will never see "writing good prompts" as art especially since that same art steals from the artist that the AI replicates.

If you use it for memes or something inconsequential like that then that's okay as long as you never say something to the effect of "I created this".

Did you know that it is legal to #marry the #dead in #France

In 1959, 5 yrs after its construction, the Malpassant Dam regulating the Reyran river, catastrophically collapsed. A 4m high wave rushed at a speed of 70km/h through the area, destroying 2 villages.

423 people #died.

This led to many women requesting posthumous weddings, primarily to protect unborn children from being seen as illegitimate.

In 2019, a French woman married a lieutenant killed in Mali.

The bed in the first picture was one of my homemade ones. I remember that I was low on bags of soil and out of finished compost, and I filled the base of that bed with really pretty fresh shavings and horse manure. I knew they’d lock up the nitrogen for a year or so but eventually it would be a good bed.
Various plants failed to grow there for a year, and then last summer I got some oregano to take. I wasn’t sure what happened to it after the chickens rampaged through the bed, but I found most of the oregano plants when I went looking. There were four big enough to save. I moved two to a weird narrow planter with some garlic and stuffed the other two in the corners of their original bed. They’re protected by wire cloches and pottery shards, and hopefully the chickens will be distracted by all the fresh compost.
But what’s neat is that each clump of oregano had an absolutely massive root system that was completely entwined with the mycelium at the bottom of the bed! When my stall shavings + horse manure gets trapped in an anaerobic layer, it turns into a solid, spongy mass of mycelium - I’ve seen it happen in these beds and also in the compost piles. And plants apparently love it! There’s obviously some symbiosis occurring. I had to fork the plants out of deep holes and they came out like layer cakes - a layer of white-tan mycelium bound to a layer of lovely finished compost by a mass of oregano roots.
It was cool!

The Associated Press projects that Joe Biden has won the #NewHampshire primary on the Democratic side. Since he was not on the ballot, voters had to write him in. By the time the unprocessed write-in votes are counted, he will have between 65% and 70% of the vote. Dean Phillips was 2nd at 20%. Marianne Williamson is closer to my views than either of these two, but it's obvious she had little grassroots support. She had 5%. https://www.nytimes.com/interactive/2024/01/23/us/elections/results-new-hampshire-democratic-primary.html

The researchers are now considering that transmissions are occurring between #mammals. Scientists had previously assumed that mammals were being infected from contact with #birds through fecal matter or their dead carcasses. But Campagna pointed out that pups mainly nurse from their mothers, and therefore would not be consuming infected birds.

Palestinian artist Amal Abu Al-Sabah, 26, paints murals on houses bombed by Israel.

She’s one of more than 1.9 million Palestinians forcibly displaced by Israel over the last 109 days. She's been displaced several times since Oct. 7 & she left all her artwork, “aspirations, and dreams” in her home. “My bedroom was filled with so much of my artwork, from paintings to colors and everything else.” Her message: “The Israeli aggression must cease once & for all."

You can be both.

Dear Diary,

I enjoyed BTS Winter Package 2021, especially the cute Tiny Tan dollies.

SUGA looked a little sore from his surgery, but they all seemed glad he was back.

Hobi was surprisingly brave about the zipline.

Jiminie was cute being fascinated by windmills.

I hope next time RM finds his crab friends.
