- lost count of the no. of these projects i've worked on - commercial units normally end up empty after the first year.face_melter
- useful amenities like surgeries and libraries have been melted into large, centralised, buildings normally long bus rides away from where folk live.face_melter
- ^ North America-style. Ugh.Continuity
- the problem is always the same.. they make mixed use, but the non residential part is prohibitively expensive and inaccessible to anyone that isnt a corporationautoflavour
- ^ So every development fills up with the same bullshit chains, and everything's the same, everything's generic, everything's synthetic. Watta woyld!Nairn
- and then the chain closes down because there is saturation, and then it remains empty for years . thanks capitalismautoflavour

- what's with the bad hands, is this AI?_niko
- ahh feck, maybe...mort_
- sorry mort wasn't trying to break your balls just shocked he has so many followers for an ai instagrammer_niko
- No, I'm with you man. Especially when the AI brings nothing new to the table and there are real artists producing similar work.mort_
- Yeah, checked last night and was disappointed to see "his portfolio" is all AI. Still, that second one is something else.Nairn
- looks kool with meta glasses....neverscared
- Yeah nobody who would make something this amazing would fuck up hands and that alone.monospaced
- One of the ADs on the campaign I'm working on for a new agency client did film STBs and scamps all in AI (Freepix). Made me want to cry.Continuity

Signs your getting old?
fucking hell, was feeling pain in my left leg for about a week, then it started to swell a bit, so I went to a clinic where they did an ultrasound and they sent me to emerg.
Turns out I had a 19cm blood clot in a superficial vein, not so bad as if it were in a deep vein but still.
Design kills, I'd be safer working as an Indian labourer in Dubai lol
- yikes... scary stuff — glad they got you sorted <3PonyBoy
- eeef, fucking hell. So, have they informed you about how that sort of thing comes about?! Glad you're still with us (!) - that shit can go south, quick.Nairn
- sitting too long at my desk with not enough breaks and not drinking enough water is my best guess._niko
- I'm on blood thinners for 6 weeks to help dissolve it, if you you don't hear back from me, someone please delete my browser
history!_niko - See this is the stuff that scares me. Is it just a goose egg from a bump or something serious.falcadia
- Scary stuff. Be well!mort_
- Hours and hours sit, we're digging our own grave, without the right to compensation for occupational hazards... WAF!OBBTKN
- Not a goose egg falcadia more like a 19cm clot running the length of a vein from my inner calf to my knee_niko
- good god, what ya eatin over there?garbage
- lots of fber, no alcohol, lots of fruits and veggies, lots of fish, run once or twice a week, gym 3 times a week...and fucking still! lol_niko
- get well geezprophetone
- do some yoga my man or a roller for fascia release.Beeswax
- Take care of yo'self. Damn water. "Why must we quaff such floods of water still?"
Dubai chocolate so hawt right now.bezoar - "Drink water and change your socks."
Get better. <3palimpsest - Christ niko, get better!Continuity
- Thanks guys! I’m sure I’ll be fine but take this as a heads up for everyone to avoid my idiotic fate :)_niko
- Dang, scary. Glad you found it!Gnash

- amazing, 20k followers for an AI "artist"_niko
- I'm guessing his followers know its AI and don't care. Concerning.mort_
- So is there ever a point where this could be considered real art? At least he's presenting a coherent vision with all the pieces of meat lolyuekit
- Well if he was known as "the meat guy" as an artist before the AI, then using AI to create more works like these, probably okay.
If just using AI, I think notgrafician - I guess using AI just like a tool by an established artist would be okay vs. just a nobody posting AI slopgrafician

Home Office Speakers
Audioengine S5 is a great option in the near field desk speaker area at that price. Beautiful too.
- A5 I mean. https://audioengine.…monospaced
- I was looking at these the other day. Did you get the subwoofer to go with it?Continuity
- I didn’t. If my room was bigger and I was going louder I might. But these PUMP.monospaced
- They look like they're excellent room-fillers all on their own. The space I'd put them in is about 23 square metres.Continuity
- They’d probably be fine. Self powered and passive options available. Solid built too.monospaced
- I still have the A2 (first gen, no bluetooth, bought them out of a wired review, when speakers started to be relevant for computers).uan
- I upgraded them with a bluetooth dongle along the way)..you don't need the subwoofer for a small room imo. they got plenty of power (even the A2).uan
- I too rocked some original A2 speakers I picked up in 2012. Amazing little things.monospaced
- these arouse my interest._me_

Re: projector
Much better than expected. It’s like having a movie theater at home. Even makes me wonder what to do when the TV comes back.
- i have a bunch of these for doing club visuals, they've really come on a long way even from a couple years back.kingsteven
- Fun!monospaced
- @king noice! I’ve already been thinking about projecting to outline a big spray paint mural ;)maquito
- @mono I might have to buy a proper screen, like some roller thing to mount on the wall or something, for when the TV returnsmaquito
- Which one did you get in the end, Maquito?Nairn
- https://amzn.eu/d/d5…maquito
- EUR64?! Huh.Nairn
- Yupmaquito
- Had a projector years ago and a shit small old school TV. Would use the TV for general tv watching like while eating.microkorg
- But projector was used when I wanted more of an 'experience' like movies or gaming.microkorg
- I got a Nebula Capsule 3 recently; testing the waters pre 4K projector investment. It’s rad; 120” on the covered patio mind 60” in our tent trailer. Approved.ideaist
- I recently got a free 1080p projector that would have cost $2k in 2012. it's the only way to watch movie at home now.pango
- The only problem is I don't have decent speakers :/pango
