When I hear Dropsite mentioned that the genocidal state is ramping up propaganda to obscure the latest aid block into Gaza, I didnt know they're just microwaving decades old talking points
Israel is working to get humanitarian aid into the Gaza strip. #Hamas is stealing that aid in order to feed its terror machine and tighten its grip on #Gaza. Hold Hamas responsible. Don't let Hamas destroy Gaza's future.

This is like shutting the door after the horse has bolted. It took a while but Americans are now striking where it matters while the occupation is still trying to make up cover stories.
⭕️ IMPORTANT: As floods swamp Gaza's tent camps, new reporting from Haaretz and N12 shows Israel's military is treating the images only as a PR problem. IDF Chief of Staff Lt. Gen. Eyal Zamir convened an emergency meeting Sunday on what officials call Hamas's "winter campaign," N12 reported. Security officials acknowledged that Gaza's tents are soaked by rain and blown away by wind. Their worry was that the "harsh images" would pressure Israel to allow reconstruction before Hamas disarms, and limit its “freedom of action,” ie ability to continue strikes and killings. “As in the starvation campaign, Hamas wants to exploit the harsh images of winter in the Strip," they said, referring to the famine a UN-backed monitor confirmed under Israel's blockade in 2025. Officials said the images aren't breaking through yet, partly because the world is focused on Iran and the US midterms. Zamir ordered PR preparations to begin now and aid deliveries to continue enough to blunt the campaign. At a separate closed meeting in recent days prior to the flooding, the IDF pressed the Foreign Ministry and National Security Council for a hasbara (PR) plan before pictures of "flooded tents, residents suffering from cold and shortages, and destroyed infrastructure" dominate global media, Haaretz reported. Civilian officials refused, saying that engaging could amplify the images. They refused to allow the over 150,000 tents waiting outside the border from entering Gaza.

Just a few weeks ago, the IDF, anticipating the impact of heavy rain on Gaza, demanded that a Hasbara plan be prepared in advance. The Foreign Ministry argued that no international campaign was underway yet and refused, so as not to draw unnecessary attention to the situation in Gaza. No one suggested doing anything to prevent what awaited the Palestinians in Gaza. (Haaretz report, trans. by AI)

Needed a break from the computer. Not sure when I'll work on this but I do need to work on more sniper-class mechs. #mech #mecha #robot #sketch #drawing #inksketch.

the jensen huang affair has a malaysia story 👀 quick recap: nvidia’s ceo told staff he was unfaithful to his wife. the woman is alice huang, an exec at singapore-based megaspeed, who a US intelligence memo reportedly alleges was recruited by china’s ministry of state security. nobody has been charged the tl is calling it coldplay ceo 2.0. there are some differences though: coldplay ceo (jul 2025) - caught on a kiss cam - the viral apology letter was fake, he never wrote one - gone within days jensen (nov 2026) - surfaced via NYT reporting, then the intelligence memo - real memo, owns it, family and all - board says it has confidence in him while independent directors investigate same same but different. one man lost his job over a concert cam. the other is running nvidia while his board investigates whether he was the target of a foreign spy op 👀 now the malaysia bit: megaspeed's malaysian unit, speedmatrix, bought at least US$4.8B of AI gear packed with nvidia chips between june 2024 and feb 2026. the NYT reported they went to data centres in malaysia and indonesia that appear to remotely serve chinese clients. US and SG investigators have been circling since 2025, and megaspeed's SG office went dark last year. and in may the US made it clear: any advanced chip headed to an entity with a china or macau parent needs a US export licence, wherever it sits nvidia calls megaspeed an ordinary regional cloud customer. nobody has been charged but every GPU landing in johor or selangor now carries this question with it 🤔 our data centre boom just got a lot more eyes on it 👀
You can't make this up: At 6:00 PM ET, US stock market futures opened for the first time since Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang admitted to a "relationship" with a Chinese spy. By 6:01 PM ET, S&P 500 futures had erased an implied -$300 billion in market cap. Then, by 6:07 PM ET, all losses were erased and S&P 500 futures turned green, adding back an implied +$350 billion in market cap as traders bought the dip. That's a $650 billion swing in implied market cap due to a CEO's relationship. We all just witnessed the strangest record in stock market history.

I had to do this but with art. Some Chinese conpany used AI to generate models and we had to give feedback to improve it. We spent weeks giving feedback only for the models to become gradually worse, at which point they just straight up ignore our comments--
this is whats going to happen to epic games in about a year

--in the end the result is so ugly and it's so near the deadline, we ditch this comoany and had a local company redo everything but this time they sculpted the model themselves. They did it by hand in a shorter period than the guy using AI.

Chainsawroll's art might as well look like arcane magic when you see this Baka's art. I'm sorry but if you try to apply for a job at my workplace i'd be throwing out your resume, and my workplace has notoriously low standards for new applicants and interns

Replying to @BakaSortof
All the fine details are messy. If someone allegedly has this skill who prides themselves on details, then it these important parts (crucial to the design) usually wouldn’t be left alone. 3/5

Who's worse? 1.Amateur artists who accuse veterans of using AI by weaponizing their inexperience to "analyze art" 2.Artists who go "commission me instead I charge only 3% of this veteran's charging"
58%1. Amateur accusers
42%2. Opportunistic sellers
