Overproduction

@davidrevoy Well, if a magic stone used to be worth 40! gold coins, at 600 gold coins they are now much cheaper…

(Sorry! I’ll see myself out. 😅)

@davidrevoy Heh, this was chat today talking about hard drives. What do you mean Western Digital has sold all their SSDs for 2026? How is that a sentence?

[davidrevoy@framapiaf.org]

@bearmine 😆 True.

− 👩 "...and how much for a AI Parrot?"
− 👴 "Oh, take it, and take these 100 gold coins too. That's the AI industry paying you to inflate their total number of users. They desperately need a growth curve to keep investors on board."

@dgouttegattat 😆

@ooignignoktoo @mangeurdenuage Et oui, tout est misé sur le "Too big to fail" et sous-tirer de l'argent publique pour perfuser cette industrie qui ferait trop mal si elle s'écroulerait...

@drgroftehauge @davidrevoy I... thought it only hit the RAM... WHAT!?

Not sure if I'll include this new Krita brush I created specifically for this episode in my upcoming brush pack, but it's fun to play with 😅🖌️🦜🦜🦜

While I'm here, check out the timelapse: https://www.peppercarrot.com/0_sources/miniFantasyTheater/making-of/040.mp4 This time, I took a more traditional approach: sketch, inking, painting the background, and then characters. Along the way, I think I found a good preset for inking.

@davidrevoy hahaha so good

[drgroftehauge@sigmoid.social]

@doraii @davidrevoy Nah, SSDs are about twice as expensive as they were 3 months ago.
GPUs... well.

[kaitou@techhub.social]

@davidrevoy
Probably shouldn't include it; that brush is strictly for the birds.

s;ns

@drgroftehauge @davidrevoy Just checked my nigh 5 years old budget laptop (i3, 8GB DDR4, 256GB SSD, 720p screen) and HOLY SHIT, it's $330 to buy a used one!

@raymaccarthy @davidrevoy That kind of job (production planning) really hasn't existed since the MBA was invented.

@davidrevoy Finally, the perfect tool for making AI (Avian Intelligence) Art!

It's even a nice red for making one of them No AI 🚫 signs if people still make 'em

[catbrainz@retro.pizza]

@davidrevoy @ooignignoktoo @mangeurdenuage trop mal a qui, vraiment? La plulart des gens autour de moi ont déjà perdus leurs boulots dans les deux dernières années. Ils se reorientent dans des secteurs hors de la tech, qui n'engage plus autant. C'est une arnaque de ponzi qui ne sert qu'à extraire encore plus de ressources de la majorité de la population pour les réinjecter dans les mêmes poches déjà trop pleines.

@davidrevoy I was wondering if you drew each and every one of those 😅

[jerk@brettspiel.space]

@davidrevoy Such a true, but sad story.

[zeri@chaos.social]

@davidrevoy @rgbunny and before someone very smart comes along and pretends that soon we'll just have more 3nm clean rooms to produce enough wafers for everyone... that stuff takes like 5 years and that's if you can actually buy the tooling and have the money, so it's more like a decades.

[nilsding@pounced-on.me]

@davidrevoy gives me some brush vibes :D

[madeindex@mastodon.social]

@davidrevoy Your great art just got you your 1000ths favorite ;) This must be the most popular fedi post of the week or something hehe

[vantablack2000@mastodon.gamedev.place]

@davidrevoy This might be the ONLY "AI Brush" I would ever use lol.
