The image shows a person holding a yellow sign in an urban setting. The sign has a message written in black and red marker. The text reads: "DON'T BOW DOWN TO THE LYIN' KING." The word "LYIN'" is underlined in red. The sign also features a drawing of a lion's head with a patterned mane, resembling an Egyptian pharaoh's headdress. The person holding the sign is wearing a black jacket and is partially obscured by the sign. In the background, there is a large building with many windows, and other people can be seen, suggesting a public space. The person is also holding a black umbrella, indicating it might be raining.

St Germans Church, Cornwall
Two marvels in one: the Norman portal on the West front is unrivalled in the county, with seven orders of decoration, built of beautiful sage-green stone from Tarten Down at nearby Landrake. The wooden door was commissioned in 1903 by the Countess of St Germans, and sports a bronze door handle designd by Henry Wilson, featuring beautifully tactile fish. Also shown in my profile image.

I still show up to Microsoft office after layoffs and 23-year career
Freddy Kristiansen, 59, was laid off in May after 23 years working for Microsoft's Denmark office. He's still turning up to the office.Joshua Nelken-Zitser (Business Insider)
Per Danish labour laws, as he has worked there for more than 9 years, he has a nine month notice, meaning that while he got fired in May, he still gets paid, and has to come to work until November (minus any flex time and vacation he's due).
This is nothing new to Scandinavian workers.

@LordCaramac I'd assume that has something to do with how GPT2 was a lot more loosely fine-tuned than GPT3 and subsequent models.
GPT2 was more of an attempt at simply mimicking text, rather than mimicking text *in an explicitly conversational, upbeat, helpful tone designed to produce mass-market acceptable language*
Like how GPT2 would usually just do the thing you asked for, whereas GPT3 and others now all start with "Certainly! Here's a..." or something similar.

Ukrainian forces hit oil depot in Russia’s Rostov region
On the night of June 23, Ukrainian Special Operations Forces, in coordination with Rocket Forces and artillery units, launched a strike on the Atlas oil depot in Russia’s Rostov region. — Ukrinform.Ukrinform
does this new promo from MH Now use AI? was pumped to see SF featured in the latest season, but a lot of details in the image look...questionable...like the 2 story ramp happening on the left side, or the oddly shaped palm trees. could totally see most being composite, but key elements def look like someone asked Photoshop to make a stuff and we got these visual guesstimates.
what do you think?
During last night's attack on Kyiv, Putin's drones killed 9 more citizens in the capital.
How long will the world continue to accept, that one man keeps murdering people in frustration with his own failed war?
We should not wait for Washington to introduce the long awaited devastating sanctions on Russia. We should ourselves introduce such sanctions right now.

@lin11c I actually disagree. Militarily, Putin is making a huge mistake by wasting his missiles on hitting civilian apartment blocks.
The fact that Ukraine tries to bomb only military targets is both the legal way of fighting a war, and it is much more efficient.

in reply to Dwight (DB) 🍁 🇨🇦 • • •The image depicts a serene backyard scene with a group of deer. In the foreground, a mother deer is walking on the green grass, accompanied by three fawns. The fawns are smaller and have distinctive spots, indicating their youth. The mother deer is positioned on the left side of the image, while the fawns are scattered around her, with one standing under a tree in the center-right of the image. The background features a wooden fence and lush greenery, including a tree with sparse leaves. The overall atmosphere is calm and natural, with the deer appearing to be at ease in their surroundings.
