no governing body should be using any software that's a service and dependent on a third party because it gives that party undue leverage
The International Criminal Court is ditching Microsoft Office, saying it’s too dependent on US tech, in favor of Open Desk, a German open source alternative.
The move comes after Microsoft revoked ICC head Karim Khan’s email access when he was sanctioned by the US for the warrant against Netanyahu.

Real question here: if AI generated artwork cannot be copyrighted, does that mean that all of this is fair game to just... take and use?
Insulting to the players, insulting to the IP, insulting to the medium, the developers. And the craft itself. Fuck you executives who pushed this garbage.

To come back to this: this is just my viewpoint from working in large corporations. These days I’m struggling to find work like the rest of you. I don’t have the answer, and in fact, have tried to code again to be marketable once more. It’s brutal. My mind just doesn’t work that way.
I’ve been in three “designers should code” conversations in two days. Here’s the facts about that statement: many of us grey beards were designers that can code. We went into large corporate, and most of those don’t let you do both. That persists to this day. It’s not bad advice, but it is outdated.

After watching Guillermo Del Toro’s Frankenstein (which I loved btw) I realize I need to be drawing more images from his films. This is my pencil sketch of the pale man from Pan’s Labyrinth. That being said...

I'm quote posting this for any younger folks that follow me. There's a harsh lesson here: *any* corporation that uses language that rhymes with "we care about you" is *lying*. They love profits. That's why they do things. You are an asset until you're an expense. Then you are gone.
