First thing I thought was "Manowar, Manowar, living on the road!" - Kings of Metal.
If it is, it's unintentional. Kinda looks like a mix of Dani and Jesus.
Prompt for my image :
Spoiler
Snow White wearing black metal outfit made of leather and studs. 7 male dwarves are behind her, much shorter than her, wearing black trench coats, with long black hair. There is a castle in the background and is is night.

Unite against big toothpaste! I agree with those.
The public transport system will make you feel like you're in the 2030s. Super simple. Have your smart phone or smart watch connected to a credit card, or just have a chipped credit card, and you boop your way in any transport, you boop your way out and it charges you for whatever distance you traveled.
The hotels are incredibly expensive there and we didn't take one in the old city, but somewhere at a reasonable distance from a subway station a little further from the city center.
Do not neglect the possibility to bike in the city. We were walking everywhere, or taking trams or the subway, and I wish we biked more.
Boat tours are cool, you learn a lot. Lots of museums to visit. And if you can afford it, try these restaurants for an extraordinary experience : Wilde Zwijnen (The Wild Pig) and Moeders (Mothers).
You can visit Windmills with a 40 minutes bus ride. Pretty nice things to see and to taste (cheese!!!).
I visited Vienna in 2015 and that's one of the places where I'd gladly move if I could.
I visited Amsterdam last month and loved every bit of it.
I visited Amsterdam a month ago, it was awesome Why not?
I visited Brussels this a month ago, I loved it.
Gotta ask the generation algorithm.
I wanted something reminiscent of Mass Effect, and I decided to choose a creature that is immensely hard to kill, from an alternative dimension.
Meet : The Tardigod. A mechanical tardigrade entity that migrated on a futuristic earth, and a few soldiers are getting ready to fight it.
Here's is the prompt : an enormous mechanical tardigrade, with lights and lasers, from another dimension attacking earth, from the point of view of 3 futuristic soldiers on top of the mountain. The tardigrade covers part of the horizon and is descending upon a cyberpunk earth that is one huge city with tall buildings and lights, at sunset. The 3 futuristic soldiers appear ready for a fight.
I mean, you're not wrong.
Built this in Starfield
I remember the time when Subway used to serve their sandwiches with the strip of bread on top. Those were the good old days.
For those who remember Geocities, you can still visit those old websites that people used to create for themselves. https://www.oocities.org/
TL;DR : I create weekly SF comics just for the fun of it, using screenshots, AI and FIgma, and you can read them on my Facebook page.
So, I'm following the podcast "Starfield with normal people", and participate to their weekly Starfield Adventure Club that's organized on their Discord server. This eventually made me want to create a Starfield cartoon.
I never thought I had such a talent for storytelling. After a very tough 2023, Starfield helped me go through depression. And now those comics are part of my recovery as well. But things are not always fun, and I think it would encourage me to get feedback and ideas from readers.
I use a lot of AI to help me with this comic, which is the most fun part. ChatGPT helps me with dialogues. I feed him what I want my characters to say and he suggest lines, which I often combine for the funniest effect. I've been using some Midjourney as well for cover pages and especially for the prologue in the first episode. For those who want to know, I use Figma to put all of that together.
In this post, I uploaded my one favorite panel of each episode (I have 14 so far). Hope you'll enjoy.
If you want to read my comic, and get updates, the easiest way is through my Facebook page. I also post them on DeviantArt, but this website is making things super hard to any non-paying member and I don't know how long i'll keep using it.
You don't have to love it, or even read it. Just be nice please. I'm getting through shit.
Thanks, all!
The prompt is in the title.
Don't ask why.
Prompt : a pirate captain walking on his ship, wearing brown clothes, and a tricorn. Other pirates are working around him.
Made with Midjourney.
Prompt : a creepy, scary nightmarish easter bunny entering a kids bedroom at night, with a basket of eerie looking black eggs. Nightmare style, stuff of nightmare.
Dear mobile game devs. When I play games like that, I always wonder if it's the physics engine that's actually random and produces the result?
Or is the result calculated before the animation happens, and dictates the animation?
I've always wondered. I have some notion of programming, but from far back, and I've been scratching my head long enough about this.
Thanks in advance.
My young son and I have been watching the Harry Potter movies since the holidays, it's his first time watching them.
We did this together earlier today.
Hi! I love sync, and I've just encountered the first thing that lowered my experience.
When creating a post, such as this one, I have a problem with the title box : I can't use my third party keyboard that's installed on my smartphone.
I use SwiftKey, a keyboard that allows me to slide from one keyboard letter to the other in order to write faster. I have big thumbs, and touching each letter individually is a problem for me, so you could say I use this keyboard as an accessibility tool.
So, on the post creation interface, in the title box (and only in the title box), I can't swipe on my keyboard. This box will only accept one letter at the time, and it's really burdensome for me.
Writing the title of this post took me around 3 minutes. Sometimes I'll write it somewhere else and copy paste it in the title box, which is also a burden and sometimes I prefer just not to post.
Is there something that can be done about this? Note that I never encountered this problem in Sync for Reddit, back in the days.
Other info :
SwiftKey version 9.10.26.30
On Android version 14
Phone : Google Pixel 4A.
Thank you!
So I remember a very short video, it might be from before the youtube era but I'm not sure.
The guy was walking towards a girl with a heart in his hands, an actual heart, probably an animals heart, the kind you'll find in a science class.
He looks at the camera, points at the heart and says "Heart!", turns towards the lady, and tells her "I give you my heart". She then slaps the hand holding the heart on his face, and the video stopped there, I think they were laughing.
I have no idea why I thought of this video today, but I can't recall where i saw that.
I think it was either homemade, or on a ridiculous low budget show.
