  • Maybe an unpopular opinion, but I feel like anything produced by AI should be somehow watermarked at the source. At this point there's only a handful of companies. It wouldn't be too hard to have them all insert something into the final product that is easily identifiable. Something like a microscopic signature in a corner, with model info and date produced...idk. Not anything that ruins the image, but something that can be seen by anyone, if looked for.

    If nothing else there should be a large push to inform the public of telltale features to look for (i.e. too many appendages) to help them determine if it's created by AI or not. While not fool proof, if it can discount even a portion of the misinformation, imo, it's worth an effort.

    To me, it seems irresponsible of the companies running the AI to just unleash it upon the world without training us humans to understand what we're looking at. Letting us see how realistic everything is while letting us know its been produced by AI, at least helps us to comprehend the scope of the matter and adapt to the situation at hand. Esp for those who don't fully grasp what AI can and cannot do.

  • Apparently Bangor maine has a big outdoor backyard, is probably relatively cheaper than other places along the east coast and is supposedly pretty lbgtq friendly.

    Although that is not south of Maryland. Nevemind.

  • It sounds like you caught it pretty early. Earlier than where it would be at for many pet parents.

    Just give him love and encouragement, and do what you can to help him out. Try and reassure him the best you can through this uncertainty. Im sure hes just as confused about whats happening to him as you are. Sometimes things just happen. All you can do is to be the best friend to him that you can be and hopefully treatment will help.

    You did good and you're giving it all you got. That's what counts.

    Also, depending on the diagnosis, treatment needs, where your located, and your amount of resources, there maybe places with state of the art facilities that can help. Here we have Texas A&M. They can handle things like rare disease, chemo, dialysis, and complicated surgeries. If it looks like the appropriate thing to do, it maybe worth asking your vet if there's someplace like that around you.

    Good luck and I wish you guys the best.

  • Yeah, I don't really think they were actually related. The suv was way to far away to really be in range. I think he was more there for the on going road construction...The timing was great though.

    I don't really know my neighbors that well. Most likely it was a renter, or maybe the cop that used to live down the street had a funny sense of humor. .

  • There was one named FBIMobileSurveillance once. It was weird because it would dissapear for a while then come back.

    I'm sure the black suv that would randomly sit in different locations along the highway, (even in the median) with a guy on a computer in the driver seat had nothing to do with it... dundundunnn

    Haven't seen the network or the van in a couple of years...

    Just sayin.

  • Is that what the bristlenose is refering to? In some write ups, it seems that it indeed refers to those, but in others it just seems like the bristlenose just refers in general to the feelers they have on their faces.

    Cheek spines got the most pictures appear of it, in a search.

  • Good on you for keeping him!

    I have one of these. He's awesome at keeping my tank clean. My SO hates him, but I think he's great, except...

    Have you seen his...idk what to call them, Cheek spines? Fully out yet? It looks like he grew an alien sea anemone from the sides of his mouth. I've only seen them once in something like 10 years. I thought something was wrong with him.

    Awesome little guy, thanks for sharing.
