"After getting out of prison for a crime I didn't commit, I was going to live with my grandpa. But he died of cancer right as I arrived and I was forced to live on the streets. One day during a freezing rain, a kind woman offered me a free house and these two $20 bills. Just goes to show that life is okay sometimes, hang in there people!"

ChatGPT: karma whore caption for an image of a hand holding $40

"Found some spare motivation in my pocket! Updollar for good vibes?"

Midjourney: Imagine a hand holding $40

Close enough. We're almost there.

The midjourney image is impressive, but not good enough to stand up to scrutiny. It gives off uncanny valley vibes. I'm not an artist, but I suspect it's because the skin looks a bit too plastic/smooth.

[-] ch00f@lemmy.world 4 points 10 months ago

Midjourney is awful at hands. But it can do incredibly convincing work with better prompts. You can see what people are making if you join their discord channel

[-] cubedsteaks@lemmy.today 1 points 10 months ago

Yeah it's capable of producing photo realistic images too which the one linked here is referencing painting or digital painting.

The serial numbers don’t match on the bank note!

It's the text on the bill most of all. Try reading it.

Thank you for making me feel better

[-] rafa@lemmy.world 1 points 10 months ago

You obviously don't know the lore behind this pic, i don't blame you since it was on Reddit like a year ago, the guy is probably dead or in prison by now

[-] Hank@kbin.social 57 points 10 months ago

I love the hard drugs subreddits. The most interesting is r/DPH, the wildest is probably r/meth. Sort by top and scroll down. Just don't check the profiles of those making heartfelt promises to give up the drug forever and getting into rehab for follow ups.

[-] PeterPoopshit@lemmy.ml 36 points 10 months ago* (last edited 10 months ago)

One time I got downvoted to oblivion and then followed and harassed for saying that employers shouldn't be allowed to drug test for thc.. In r/lsd of all places. I still don't know what that was about. Did I accidently trigger the "everyone dogpile this guy" bot algorithm, maybe in a different comment? Do lsd users just think they're better than everyone else just because past use of lsd can't really be drug tested for? This happened like a year ago and I'm still dumbfounded.

[-] rafa@lemmy.world 34 points 10 months ago

Do lsd users just think they're better than everyone else

Yes, so do most of shrooms users, at least on the internet

Source: huge amount of hours browsing those subs

[-] Wage_slave@lemmy.ml 17 points 10 months ago

It's weird how before the whole micro dosing and acceptance of lsd and mushrooms people who were into that were usually chill as fuck.

Now, seems like those into it now are kinda dicks and gatekeeping the shit out of things.

[-] Impulsivedoorholder@reddthat.com 5 points 10 months ago

Still chill as fuck, internet just got toxic and that doesn't vibe.

Why not just get lost in space. I know my Internet time has gone down considerably and my regular time feels all warped and shit.

[-] cubedsteaks@lemmy.today 3 points 10 months ago

Ehh I've met lsd and shroom elitists in real life too.

[-] Impulsivedoorholder@reddthat.com 2 points 10 months ago

I guess I'm just lucky then

Hippie culture being murdered by Reagan and the neoliberal moral panic had a pretty terrible effect on drug culture in general imo.

[-] rafa@lemmy.world 13 points 10 months ago

Doing my best to bring here some of the gold there, without giving them money.

Really they're absolutely insane, it's hard to know if it's satire or just their miserable lifes

[-] Hank@kbin.social 16 points 10 months ago

Man some people are really hurting.

[-] Madison420@lemmy.world 6 points 10 months ago

Dph isn't satire, it's legit. I know no one who's done it or moreover abused it and speaks highly of it, it's always "it was fuckin crazy!" "Should I try?" "uhh no don't be stupid!"

[-] Case@unilem.org 6 points 10 months ago

I had some severe sleep issues and ended up abusing DPH, not for any recreational effects I just needed to sleep. 9 days without sleep is bad. Torture.

I took 30 of those pink devils, just to sleep. I was that desparate.

Still didn't sleep, but I went out back for a smoke and there was a spider towering over the houses in the neighborhood. Didn't think anything of it while on the meds, just went out front to smoke lol. Also I had some common visitors in the corners of my bed room, cloaked in shadows whispery chanting in a language I couldn't understand, while the darkness and certain patterns began to warp around me. But at the time it wasn't concerning. DPH is a deleriant, line jimson weed and some other plants - they differ from hallucinogens in some interesting ways. Erowid has always been a good source on various substances for those inclined to research.

For those who may be concerned, I no longer take DPH much at all, last time was due to a new minor allergic reaction to something I haven't been able to identify. Something was in that hookah tobacco my body didn't like. Also, I'm sleeping better these days - in part due to having the right medical access, as well as rigorous sleep hygiene.

There's one for people who eat urinal cakes too. I think that's my favorite

[-] Ghyste@sh.itjust.works 27 points 10 months ago

Another shitty post for the dumpster fire.

WHY DID HE GET A WHOLESOME REWARD???????

[-] HonkTonkWoman@lemm.ee 8 points 10 months ago

Maybe it’s because the floors are clean.

[-] bizzle@midwest.social 5 points 10 months ago

Dude's a crack head, he prob finger vacuums all night.

[-] Iusedtobeanadventurer@lemmy.world 3 points 10 months ago

Omg I'm not a crackhead but I did enjoy hitting the ski slopes in my 20s and I knew exactly what you meant right away

[-] Repossess6855@lemmy.dbzer0.com 3 points 10 months ago

I know funniest fucking part

[-] ArugulaZ@kbin.social 14 points 10 months ago

Which Xbox, though? For a classic Xbox, that's overpriced. For an Xbox 360, that's about right. Get any higher than that and it gets a little sketchy. (Still a crappy thing to do to your kid regardless.)

[-] 9point6@lemmy.world 9 points 10 months ago* (last edited 10 months ago)

Nah you're a little out of date there. The classic Xbox is in the process of transitioning to being a retro console, so you're looking at £30-£60 depending on condition (about $40-$80), and probably in a few years, more than that. Also the Xbox disk drives are notoriously shitty and many have died, so actual working models are either rare or refurbished at this point—that's only going to balloon the price over time

The 360 was the winner in that generation and it's now where the PS2 was about 5ish years ago, far too much supply, very little demand. I can take my pick of several different models of 360 all for about £20 (about $25) today apparently

I hope you enjoyed this unsolicited info dump about purchasing early xbox consoles in 2023.

[-] ArugulaZ@kbin.social 1 points 10 months ago

You might be right. Original Xboxes still seem fairly cheap on ShopGoodwill, but I haven't been pricing them elsewhere, given the fact that I already own one. (It'd be nice to get one of the earlier models that are easier to hard mod, though. I've got a 1.6 which is mod-resistant, but at least doesn't have a leaky clock capacitor.)

[-] whileloop@lemmy.world 14 points 10 months ago
[-] son_named_bort@lemmy.world 1 points 10 months ago

I would've sold it for at least $41.

[-] Bizarroland@kbin.social 13 points 10 months ago

Sometimes you got to stage a break in to cover up the fact that you robbed your own family for crack money

[-] imgonnatrythis@lemm.ee 7 points 10 months ago

Must be a glitch. Rewards On reddit are usually highly meaningful.
