That looks like a 3d printed shell over some sort of scannable chip that pairs with an app on a smart phone to require a physical action to unlock the full phone experience.

A printed QR code paired with an similar app would serve the same function.

Most people don't think about how things work. I'd guess that most customers thought all the smart features were internal and the Internet connection was just an arbitrary requirement

Walmart depresses me with its new bare concrete floors, and dystopian looking decor. The sheer amount of stuff to look it is overwhelming, too. So yeah, I don't like going there.

Thank you. Now I can happily block OP's profile.

Merry Christmas, Baby by The Beach Boys.

Half the album this song comes from is original songs, the other half is the old favorites that were already old favorites at the time.

Yeah, that doesn't work well anymore. Gotta be a noisy dedicated worker, and be willing to move jobs a few times to start seeing the rewards

So, they technically didn't go to bed angry

It can be a great compliment when someone knows you well enough to see that you're overthinking things. Too many times it's just thrown around without thinking it through and that ruins it for everyone

Oh wow that's a good one! There was a time where it worked out great the vast majority of the time. Not so much now, definitely aged like milk

The top 20 or so most common names today will be the top 20 or so old people names in the future.

I think you have to jump all the way to fully protected bike lanes to get a widespread shift going.

A very small improvement in the width of the unprotected bike lanes would not be enough for the majority of potential bike riders. Then, the opponents have the opportunity to point out the lack of use and crow that the whole idea is a waste of time and money.

But a big change would have a big response, and would relieve a lot of commuters from their reliance on cars. Then the argument that bike lanes are worth the cost and space in cities would have some results to back it up.

Absolutely. I'm spoiled to where I am suddenly tasting the wax in regular Hershey's bars

I have posted another result from the same prompt before, but my SO thought this one is better.

In Bing Image Creator, DAL-E 3

Prompt: a man sits, quickly writing words on a keyboard. Across the room, a nimble industrial robot moves fast, painting a large, brightly colored masterpiece of a scene

 

The term is quite over used in my opinion, it is very often used in hyperbole. Whether it is in terms of popularity and driving traffic to a website or a threat said to break the Internet, it doesn't seem to live up to the meaning of the term.

Trying to eat healthier, (edit for me this means lower sugar, less carbs, more protein) and it seems like everything that is sweet, sweet-ish, or a snack but also sold as healthy has peanuts or is peanuts. I'm not allergic to it, but I am tired of peanut butter cookies, peanuts in a snack bar, peanuts on their own, peanuts in a snack mix.

I asked for a stump, but this turned out great!

In Bing Image Creator, DAL-E 3

Prompt: inside an enormous stump in the deep woods we find a surprise, a thriving community of field mice with ultra modern houses, a busy street market, and electric lights

Prompt: photo of a wild car in pink and silver, decals should be hand painted, skimming across water at high speed

I wanted a wild car, but got a wild card decals theme. Not sure what the transformers style wings are about, but I think this is great!

Prompt: a posh and dignified mural that showcases the wonders of space, galaxies, comets, and nebula

Prompt: Kermit the frog sits behind the desk as a talk show host on a stage set. across from him, sitting in the guest chair, is Steve from Minecraft. Steve is blocky while Kermit is a puppet

Yes, Bing switched who is sitting where. It did get it right sometimes

But the best looking ones has the Steve as the host instead

 

I asked Bing for a dark spaceship following the Space Shuttle around the moon, but this is the most interesting result.

I was playing around with getting Nixie Tubes to display all the relevant numbers in a car.

Although wildly unsafe to have this much glass in a car interior, I think it looks great, so I kept running variations.

I really liked the lit glass ball on the shifter, but it would always make the Nixie Tubes unreadable. Maybe the next update to DAL-E will be able to handle both ideas at once.

The tubes across the top of the dashboard seem especially awful for safety, and asking for "a ridiculous amount of Nixie Tubes" got me so many on the center console that they would be unreadable IRL. Also, it filled in the floor space, making at least the passenger side and sometimes the whole interior unusable.

Lastly, the one I posted over on imageai community for my 100th post on Lemmy.
