In all fairness there probably aren't any images of Gordon Ramsey riding an Ostrich on the moon in its training set either but it manages that. I tried this prompt several times in Ideogram, both as realistic and also design-based imag

It's the same on Twitter/X, possibly even worse. Instagram is a walled garden, as is LinkedIn. I recently did the North Coast 500 miles around Scotland and when I was using wifi I was challenged often to prove I'm human. It

Is anyone at Google even aware how much this hurts their brand? I received an email from Google today with the subject line "Meet the new Google TV Streamer (4K)" The sender was Google Chromecast. Apparently it's some sort of

If it's the Lumix S5 I have the same camera and as far as I know you are getting genuinely more resolution but it relies on there being absolutely no movement in the scene. So, great for buildings and architecture, terrible in forests

Also buses are more likely to let other buses out in traffic so that's another reason why you get clumps of buses arriving rather than regularly spaced ones

I've always held the opinion that viewing PDFs in something other than Adobe Acrobat gives the user more of a chance of avoiding such attacks... is there any credence to this or is it just wishful thinking?

I've converted back to Firefox now. It's not perfect but it's a decent alternative.

I'd argue that companies do this are actually your enemy. Most people would agree that stealing and lying is wrong, but this isn't far removed from that.

It places a burden on someone to somehow prove their innocence, if they can. What if a person refused to speak to the police? Or what about this? A man covered his face when walking past one of these vans in a public street. He protested an

Cosmic horror is a good one. I've only seen the Milky Way with my own eyes a couple of times and the last time gave me an existential cosmic horror too. I went to sleep thinking about the unignitable size and age of what's all aro
