This may very well be a tankie.

Aggressive rhetoric aimed at Dems, no open judgement on the GOP at all (unless questioned about it directly)

That all checks out.

Shit-tier truck denoting a lack of care towards aesthetics or form.

That checks out.

Outward aggression aimed at people they will never meet/who won’t ever become their actual enemy.

Yep. That’s a tankie-mover.

This is an amazing window into your brain lmao.

“Everything bad in my life is a tankie”

This is just a fucking Republican with some misogynistic bumper stickers meant to look like Democrat logos.

Look everyone, it’s PugJesus definitely not PugJesus’s alt account, Yeetpics, the user who won’t stop whinging on about tankies, as usual using the flimsiest of similarities to…

Tap for spoiler

cry more about non-existent tankies.

Did you know there are actual tankies doing authentic tankie things on Lemmy that you can whine about? Or did they all block you for being such bloviating wet blanket, so now you get your wank time in by tilting at windmills?

Lol, the fact that you actually forgot to switch back to your alt in your response makes it even funnier. Thanks for proving my point for me!

Edit: you need to change your writing style between alts, that’s primarily what gives you away. They make the same bad logic arguments and ALL seem to have a massive stiffy for imaginary tankies. Plus how you downvote bomb people immediately after disagreeing with them is a sure sign of shenanigans.

Did you ever consider that being chronically online and invested in the approval of strangers to the point of having to fabricate your own support might be a massive warning sign?

If you’re letting the stupidest speak for you then yeah, you’re that stupid. This is who conservatives want speaking for them, so you’re all at least this stupid.

Look, having nuclear — my uncle was a great professor and scientist and engineer, Dr. John Trump at MIT; good genes, very good genes, OK, very smart, the Wharton School of Finance, very good, very smart — you know, if you’re a conservative Republican, if I were a liberal, if, like, OK, if I ran as a liberal Democrat, they would say I’m one of the smartest people anywhere in the world — it’s true! — but when you’re a conservative Republican they try — oh, do they do a number — that’s why I always start off: Went to Wharton, was a good student, went there, went there, did this, built a fortune — you know I have to give my like credentials all the time, because we’re a little disadvantaged — but you look at the nuclear deal, the thing that really bothers me — it would have been so easy, and it’s not as important as these lives are — nuclear is so powerful; my uncle explained that to me many, many years ago, the power and that was 35 years ago; he would explain the power of what’s going to happen and he was right, who would have thought? — but when you look at what’s going on with the four prisoners — now it used to be three, now it’s four — but when it was three and even now, I would have said it’s all in the messenger; fellas, and it is fellas because, you know, they don’t, they haven’t figured that the women are smarter right now than the men, so, you know, it’s gonna take them about another 150 years — but the Persians are great negotiators, the Iranians are great negotiators, so, and they, they just killed, they just killed us, this is horrible

See… the thing about the piss tape rumor is that most of the rest of the Steele Dossier turned out to be corroborated elsewhere.

Which is slightly different from this ‘Biden is a pedophile’ claim.

Also, no one actually believes Vance fucks couches (it was just hand stuff). We say it because it upsets people like you. Looks like we succeeded.

I don’t really like the phrase “this is their whole identity”. Really is just uncharitable to any person for being passionate about something.

By the same logic just as many people could be uncharitably described as “being queer is their whole identity”, just because they are very vocal about it.

Disregarding that: What an absolute weirdo.

I think the problem is when your whole identity is rooted in fear and anger. Being vocal about LGBTQ+ issues is trying to prop up people, however this is just being crass because you’ve given into the paranoia and have nothing else of value to add to the conversation.

Really into this, but is the license plate bluriness due to JPEG compression or AI? Genuine question

On another post where a web comic showed similar artifacts, I also asked the same question - and concluded that the comic’s resolution was “enhanced”, either by the phone itself (when they saved it from their source) or by a (re)poster. So I think that here it’s the same thing - AI “”“enhancement”“”.

Is this an Android thing?

Context: Am iOS user taking photos in RAW and sometimes ProRes

Edit: Maybe instead of downvoting you could explain how wrong I am. I’ve never seen this outside AI so I’m genuinely asking where these photos are coming from.

That doesn’t make sense, RAW is a file format and has nothing to do with AI enhancement. Also, RAW files are not uploadable to websites (they are, but they would look shitty), RAW is a file format that allows a greater range of adjustments at a later point for professionals (like using Lightroom).

ProRes is apparently (I googled it) a VIDEO format.

There might be phones that have shitty AI resolution enhancement built into their camera app, but most likely that’s not the case here. This image just went through an AI upscaler, which is a website or an app that works on Android and iOS, but it has nothing to do with the vendor

Compression. I saw very similar “smoothing” on a zoomed in photo I took recently at home as the city sign in the background shows.

Edit: these are a bunch of turkeys that were about 50 feet away but once I zoomed into the picture the texture seemed really off.

What camera is doing this? Why would someone use this kind of enhancement? I don’t see the benefit at all — it just looks so much worse.

My dashcam does this, probably so they can claim it’s a higher resolution than it really is.

It’s kind of both. A lot of modern Samsung phones do this really weird “AI Enhancement” shit to improve the look of zoomed in shots. I remember testing it out at Best Buy, taking pictures of some Blu-rays on the other side of the store with the 20x zoom option. The original photo was pretty much what you’d expect, it looked like a low-res super cropped pic, but then it applied the “AI Enhancement” and did it’s best to fill in the text and price labels, and wound up looking exactly like a bunch of garbled AI text.
