Hasan, Elon and Ubisoft... what is this, a shit triangle?
base
Yeah, it will be interesting to see how this pans out. With that calender anecdote i just wanted say that its already slowly happening.
Also this horrible made with AI trailer for ARK Evolved just dropped a few days ago: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=V2eCWWaCzwQ
For now i'm at the point where when i see a company use AI in any obvious way their legitimacy drops in instant to rock bottom. But i can see that easily change over the years if this just becomes common practice and i start to dont give a shit anymore.
Already spotted two calenders with AI "art" in the wild. Both were calenders which are given away by companies for free as marketing.
I understand why but i still hate it tbh. First because a day where i dont spot ai slop is a good day and second is the implication that now in atleast two cases not a single legimate artist got paid. Sucks.
I tend to make falafels myself. The "correct" way with the dried chickpeas is tedious, though. Watering them the day before, then mincing them the next day and so on. But with cooked and canned chickpeas you can make falafels too. The secret ingridient is a bit of starch and flour to bind the falafel mass. Without that the falafels would fall apart in the pan. But with that in mind i have my falafel "dough" made in under half an hour. Chickpeas, diced onions, diced garlic, the usual herbs(or get creative), starch, flour all go in to a bowl. I crush the peas with a fork at the start. Leaving some unbroken for better mouthfeel. Then just knead the dough until its uniform. If you keep your hands watered the dough doesnt stick to much to your hands when forming the balls.
The "water" from the chickpea can can be used to make a vegan mayonaise(ish) sauce and a lot of other stuff btw.
Its a bit more work then just ready to be cooked stuff but just make one time a bulk of them and then freeze them. Idk how the stuff in canade tastes. But atleast here most of the ready to eat stuff is so much worse than selfmade.
wouldnt go as far as saying that hasan is a decent human being. no doubt, i rank im way higher than elmo. but that guy is still problematic on so many levels even if his believes align here there with my own. but to apply even more nuance to my shitpost: the most unfair part of my post was to generelise an individual single dev beeing the entirety of the soulless corporation of ubisoft.
/hmm, lots of fans around here. idk how one can fall for this disingenuous fuckface. but you do you.
