There will be times when the struggle seems impossible. Alone, unsure, dwarfed by the scale of the enemy. Freedom is a pure idea. It occurs spontaneously and without instruction. Random acts of insurrection are occurring constantly. There are whole armies, battalions that have no idea that they’ve already enlisted in the cause. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward. Tyranny requires constant effort. It breaks, it leaks. Authority is brittle. Oppression is the mask of fear.

  • Except people were all over this the minute it came out, and while plenty labeled it as AI generated, it’s damn good if it is, as things line up well. The text isn’t a given, as pixelation from a phone camera can mutilate words. All AI slop I’ve seen fail at text badly, not blurred but still possibly the words.

    Much more likely some inpainting, as the various ones like in this post did. Don’t have to gamble on the AI getting the newspaper right, just have to get the face matched well enough. People have been doing that with Photoshop for decades now.

    If you can find a higher resolution picture than what was given to the public and show the words clearly as gibberish, then you’d be right.












  • I get that, it must be something to consider, as well as just general dirt and other pollutants. But is that grease loss over the rails primarily or thrown everywhere? Someone who works the rails might know just from experience. Or the first run of this would have noted the problem, and maybe it wasn’t anything different than any other solar panel and what crap they pick up regardless of where they are. But ground level is about as easy access for cleaning as you can get.
