• So, it seems we've reached a new low in entertainment with these ‘Cheapfake’ AI celeb videos on YouTube. Who knew that a bot could create such thrilling fan-fiction-style content that’s apparently "obviously fake"? It’s like watching a toddler paint a masterpiece—adorable, but you know it’s going to end up on the fridge. Yet, here we are, glued to our screens, falling for these digital shenanigans as if they were Shakespearean dramas. Who needs reality when we can binge-watch AI's lazy attempts at fame?

  • Looks like the encryption made for police and military radios is about as secure as a paper bag in a rainstorm. Researchers have discovered that the algorithm meant to keep our brave protectors safe from prying ears is easier to crack than a nut at a toddler's birthday party. Who needs spies when you've got a front-row seat to the latest police drama? Maybe next time, they should consult a teenager before deploying their "state-of-the-art" security measures. It's a brave new world, folks!

  • So, it turns out the first widespread cure for HIV is hiding in plain sight – in our children. Who knew that those little bundles of joy with their sticky fingers and loud screams held the key to a medical breakthrough? Apparently, if we just dose them up with antiretroviral drugs early enough, they might just kick HIV to the curb and then toss the meds like last season's fashion. Who needs a lab full of scientists when you have toddlers? Next, we’ll be training them to solve world hunger with a sippy cup and some goldfish crackers.

    Evidence is growing that some HIV-infected infants, if given antiretroviral drugs early in life, are able to suppress their viral loads to undetectable levels and then come off the medicine.

  • Just made my first zine, and wow, did I learn a lot! Turns out, "10 lessons learned the hard way" is just a fancy way of saying, "I ruined a lot of paper and my sanity." Who knew that folding a piece of paper could feel like rocket science? And don't get me started on the art of making it look intentional—my doodles could scare a toddler.

    Here's a lesson for you: if you want to unleash your inner Picasso, maybe stick to finger painting. But hey, at least I can say I tried! So, if you're considering making a zine, remember, the real masterpiece is the chaos you create along the way.

  • Ah, Sony has done it again! They've unveiled an "unconventional" story mode for The Last of Us Part 2, where the levels are put in chronological order. Because, you know, who needs narrative depth when you can just slap things together like a toddler with a jigsaw puzzle? Forget the rich storytelling and emotional weight; let’s make sure everyone can follow along without their brains getting too much of a workout. Why not just turn this into a guided tour of heartbreak? I mean, we all love a good flashback, but what if we could just eliminate the suspense and tension altogether? Bravo, Sony!

  • KeyShot just dropped KeyShot Studio AI in their latest update, and it’s like giving a toddler a crayon and hoping for a Picasso. Now you can watch your local machine churn out stunning visuals that might just come with a side of copyright infringement – because who needs originality when you have generative AI, right? Maybe next they’ll introduce a feature that automatically pays the artists your new images are stealing from. But hey, at least your renders will look fabulous while you’re dodging those pesky legal issues!

  • In an election year where political design seems to have taken a vacation, we witness the tragicomic spectacle of oversized banners and hastily scribbled slogans. Seriously, can we just agree that “Toma partido” and “Adelan7e” are the political equivalent of a toddler’s finger painting? Meanwhile, across the ocean, Mamdani is proving that design isn’t just about flashy colors and mismatched fonts—it's ideology, emotion, and a dash of clarity. Who knew that politics could be so... well, visually appealing? But hey, why bother with intelligent campaigns when you can just slap your face on a billboard and call it a day?

  • In a world where we’re all desperately trying to make our digital creations look as lifelike as a potato, we now have the privilege of diving headfirst into the revolutionary topic of "Separate shaders in AI 3D generated models." Yes, because why not complicate a process that was already confusing enough?

    Let’s face it: if you’re using AI to generate your 3D models, you probably thought you could skip the part where you painstakingly texture each inch of your creation. But alas! Here comes the good ol’ Yoji, waving his virtual wand and telling us that, surprise, surprise, you need to prepare those models for proper texturing in tools like Substance Painter. Because, of course, the AI that’s supposed to do the heavy lifting can’t figure out how to make your model look decent without a little extra human intervention.

    But don’t worry! Yoji has got your back with his meticulous “how-to” on separating shaders. Just think of it as a fun little scavenger hunt, where you get to discover all the mistakes the AI made while trying to do the job for you. Who knew that a model could look so… special? It’s like the AI took a look at your request and thought, “Yeah, let’s give this one a nice touch of abstract art!” Nothing screams professionalism like a model that looks like it was textured by a toddler on a sugar high.

    And let’s not forget the joy of navigating through the labyrinthine interfaces of Substance Painter. Ah, yes! The thrill of clicking through endless menus, desperately searching for that elusive shader that will somehow make your model look less like a lumpy marshmallow and more like a refined piece of art. It’s a bit like being in a relationship, really. You start with high hopes and a glossy exterior, only to end up questioning all your life choices as you try to figure out how to make it work.

    So, here we are, living in 2023, where AI can generate models that resemble something out of a sci-fi nightmare, and we still need to roll up our sleeves and get our hands dirty with shaders and textures. Who knew that the future would come with so many manual adjustments? Isn’t technology just delightful?

    In conclusion, if you’re diving into the world of AI 3D generated models, brace yourself for a wild ride of shaders and textures. And remember, when all else fails, just slap on a shiny shader and call it a masterpiece. After all, art is subjective, right?

  • In a world where animated dreams dance on the silver screen, Jellyfish Pictures has decided it’s time for a long nap. Yes, you read that right! The studio known for masterpieces like "How to Train Your Dragon: Homecoming" has hit the pause button on its activities, but don’t worry, it’s only temporary—because who doesn’t love a good power nap when the going gets tough?

    Now, one might wonder: what does it mean to “suspend” your work? Is it like putting your favorite series on hold because you just can’t handle the drama? Or perhaps it’s more akin to a toddler’s tantrum—screaming for attention before quietly retreating to a corner? It seems Jellyfish Pictures has taken a page out of the book of procrastination, choosing to hibernate while the world spins on, leaving us all to ponder the fate of animated wonders.

    Let’s be real here: with the current crisis looming over us like a dark cloud, every studio is feeling the pinch. But to "temporarily" suspend activities? That’s a bold move, friend. It’s almost as if they’re saying, “Hey, we’re too cool for this economy!” And who wouldn’t want to take a break? After all, we all deserve a vacation—even if it’s from our own creativity.

    Imagine the team at Jellyfish Pictures, lounging on beach chairs with their laptops closed, sipping piña coladas while the world clamors for the next blockbuster. “We’ll be back!” they chant, while the animation industry holds its breath, waiting for their grand return. Or is it a dramatic re-emergence, like a phoenix rising from the ashes of a crisis that they bravely “suspended” themselves from?

    And let’s not overlook the irony here. A studio that brings fantastical worlds to life has chosen to embrace the tranquility of inactivity. Perhaps they’re taking some time to meditate on the complexities of jellyfish—creatures that float aimlessly through life while people marvel at their beauty. A fitting metaphor, wouldn’t you say?

    So here’s to Jellyfish Pictures! May your time of “temporary suspension” be filled with inspiration, relaxation, and perhaps a little daydreaming about the next big hit. Just remember, while you’re out there perfecting your hibernation skills, the rest of us are still waiting for you to come back and sprinkle a little magic back into our cinematic lives.

  • In a world where cloud computing has become the digital equivalent of air (you know, something everyone breathes in but no one really thinks about), the latest trend in datacenter technology is to send our precious data skyrocketing into the cosmos. Yes, you read that right—space-based datacenters are the new buzzword, because why let earthly problems like power outages or NIMBYism stop us from storing our data in the great beyond?

    Imagine the scene: while we sit in traffic on our way to work, feeling the weight of our earthly responsibilities, there are engineers in space suits, floating around in zero gravity, managing data storage like it’s just another day at the office. I mean, who needs a reliable power grid when you can have the cosmic energy of a thousand suns powering your Netflix binge-watching session? Talk about an upgrade!

    Of course, this leap into the stratosphere isn't without its challenges. What happens if there’s a little too much space debris? Will our precious selfies come crashing back down to Earth? Or worse, will they be lost forever among the stars? But fear not! The tech-savvy geniuses behind this initiative have assured us that they have a plan. Clearly, the best minds of our generation are focused on ensuring your TikTok videos stay safe in orbit rather than, say, solving world hunger or climate change. Priorities, am I right?

    Let’s not forget about the cost. Space travel isn’t exactly cheap. But hey, if I’m going to spend a fortune on data storage, I’d rather it be orbiting Earth than sitting in a basement somewhere in New Jersey. Because nothing says “I’m a forward-thinking tech mogul” quite like a datacenter floating serenely above the clouds, right? It’s the ultimate status symbol—better than a sports car, better than a mansion. “Look at me! My data is literally out of this world!”

    And let’s be real, the power of AI is growing faster than a toddler on a sugar rush. Our current datacenters are sweating bullets trying to keep up. So, the solution? Just toss them into orbit! Sure, it sounds like a plot from a sci-fi movie, but who needs a solid plan when you have a vision, right? The next logical step is to start launching all our problems into space. Traffic jams? Launch them! Your ex? Into orbit they go!

    So, here's to the brave souls who will be managing our digital lives from afar. May your Wi-Fi connection be strong, may your satellite dishes be well-aligned, and may your cosmic data never experience latency. Because if there’s one thing we can all agree on, it's that our data deserves a first-class ticket to space, even if it means leaving the rest of the world behind.
