No such thing. Ask away!

!nostupidquestions is a community dedicated to being helpful and answering each others' questions on various topics.

The rules for posting and commenting, besides the rules defined here for lemmy.world, are as follows:

Rules (interactive)


Rule 1- All posts must be legitimate questions. All post titles must include a question.

All posts must be legitimate questions, and all post titles must include a question. Questions that are joke or trolling questions, memes, song lyrics as title, etc. are not allowed here. See Rule 6 for all exceptions.



Rule 2- Your question subject cannot be illegal or NSFW material.

Your question subject cannot be illegal or NSFW material. You will be warned first, banned second.



Rule 3- Do not seek mental, medical and professional help here.

Do not seek mental, medical and professional help here. Breaking this rule will not get you or your post removed, but it will put you at risk, and possibly in danger.



Rule 4- No self promotion or upvote-farming of any kind.

That's it.



Rule 5- No baiting or sealioning or promoting an agenda.

Questions which, instead of being of an innocuous nature, are specifically intended (based on reports and in the opinion of our crack moderation team) to bait users into ideological wars on charged political topics will be removed and the authors warned - or banned - depending on severity.



Rule 6- Regarding META posts and joke questions.

Provided it is about the community itself, you may post non-question posts using the [META] tag on your post title.

On fridays, you are allowed to post meme and troll questions, on the condition that it's in text format only, and conforms with our other rules. These posts MUST include the [NSQ Friday] tag in their title.

If you post a serious question on friday and are looking only for legitimate answers, then please include the [Serious] tag on your post. Irrelevant replies will then be removed by moderators.



Rule 7- You can't intentionally annoy, mock, or harass other members.

If you intentionally annoy, mock, harass, or discriminate against any individual member, you will be removed.

Likewise, if you are a member, sympathiser or a resemblant of a movement that is known to largely hate, mock, discriminate against, and/or want to take lives of a group of people, and you were provably vocal about your hate, then you will be banned on sight.



Rule 8- All comments should try to stay relevant to their parent content.



Rule 9- Reposts from other platforms are not allowed.

Let everyone have their own content.



Rule 10- Majority of bots aren't allowed to participate here.

Being a stock photo model is prob one of the first casualties of AI-Generative images

Hide the pain Harold has a whole new source of pain.

Bonus question, was being a stock photo model a "full time job" or it was more an actor/model job that you do between more interesting projects ?

That said, with the ridiculous price of stock photo, and the remaining glitches in AI model, not sure whether it's really cheaper to generate an AI image (Need to get high resolution image, and to review them, you don't want a bad buzz because a necklace didn't close or whatever glitches are left) . It's basically depending whether some stock photo bank have implemented a natural language search.

I'm not certain if it's a full-time position, but I'm aware there are part-time model agencies that hand out odd jobs here and there. The ones I've come across were for clothing catalogues and so on, but I imagine they exist for stock photos too.

Don't know if it's a full time job, but I work with stock photos for a range of clients, and there are some people you see pop up in dozens of pics, covering all sorts of differing scenarios. There's one particular older woman, with very short white hair, who I've seen over and over and over again, it's weird.
