Why would prices decrease when Americans time and time again show that we will just bend over and take whatever our corporate overlords dish out.

PNW folks have great lore.

Same. They’re the salt and pepper to the bland soup we call life.

No that’s right. Plus skinwalkers kind a jaunty tune.

I hope they whistle at night.

Big artists benefit too much from the system. People seem to give passes to the rich they like, but they’re all our enemies. No amount of good they could possibly do would offset the support and participation they provide to this machine of destruction.

Because our governments are largely bought and paid for.

No it’s insane to continue supporting companies when their leadership doesn’t align with your ideals. The only power you have is choice. Now run along and continue being the good little consumer you’ve been made to be.

Large language model. It’s what all these AI really are.

A lot of the hate GIMP gets is people coming from Photoshop expecting it to work like Photoshop. In fact that’s true for a lot of Adobe-like open source projects. That’s why “industry standards” are dangerous and really only exist to keep one company rich.
