Skin could be filtering/photoshop.
Mindless expression could be a mindless expression.
I do feel her face is a little wonky, like the perspective isn't quite right or her eyes aren't positioned quite correctly.
Well, part of the skin looking too even is that there's no shadows in the face. You're not gonna do that in Photoshop and I'd expect a filter to at least try to preserve your face looking like it's real, too.
But yeah, ultimately I'm just naming noticeable aspects, while it's really just an Uncanney Valley feeling that haunts me when looking at that freakshow of a face.
There's probably tons of minor details slightly off, which I cannot name individually, but which I subconsciously pick up on and because humans train their whole lives to notice small changes in a face (a.k.a. emotions), it just ends up looking creepy as hell.
Appreciate the sentiment, but my preference for linux is born from the desire to move away from proprietary American software more than anything else; It's a subject I feel strongly about (To the point where I'm using a Linux phone over android/iOS, self hosted matrix server instead of WhatsApp etc).
Using a volla Quintus with Ubuntu touch. It does all I need a phone to do, but I wouldn't say it's at the stage ready for mass adoption yet. Usually I'll need to create web apps for certain services (there are no native fediverse clients for example, so I'm using a web app of blorp), so it's manageable if you're a power user (and being able to ssh to your phones terminal is pretty cool if you're into Linux in general).
Waydroid comes as standard, and UT uses containers to run most desktop apps; known as libertine containers. For UT native apps (which there isn't a great deal of, hence the reliance on web apps/containers) you can browse here (Webber is your best friend on UT; as it simplifies creation of web apps).
You don't have the same freedom with environments on UT as you do desktop OS'... I couldn't even tell you what the env is called off the top of my head, but if you're asking about my pc; I'm currently running Garuda with KDE (though considering a switch to something like bazzite, as I'm not home enough to keep up to date with the rolling distros, and just want something that runs games when I am back). My laptop is currently running mint with KDE, which I switch to cinnamon when trying to convert someone from windows.
The highlight of my corporate career was firmly pulling the door closed behind me, right in front of our security officer, who was following behind me.
Thats what I do. Hilarious if just so many people pour into the building and im stuck there for 5 minutes until some other poor schmuck takes my place.
Been my experience with random people for like a decade or more. The only people I've run into who seemed to care was this elderly couple in Alabama (I was visiting, live in GA) where the wife always waited for her husband to open doors, and my sister-in-law who has my brother open doors for her.
She also chastised me for not walking over to my mom's door and opening it for her when we were all eating out once, to my mother's confusion because she's used to opening her own doors.
I used to work in a brew pub. I had a woman once criticize me for not going out of my way to get the door for her. I was behind the bar, so that would have required me walking like 20' away and then 30' back to front to get to her.
She let herself in then called me out for not opening the door for her. I responded with
"I needed to make sure you werent a vampire, since they can't enter uninvited!"
She grimaced and one of the regulars chimed in "youre wrong, shes definitely a harpy, not a vampire!"
I really don't understand people who want that. It's so infantilizing to have someone else do basic shit for you, especially if you need to wait for it. It crosses a line from basic politeness to learned helplessness and is often a motivation for weaponized incompetence, so I also don't understand the people who do those things for a partner that demands it. It would be an instant loss of interest for me.
It's often an enforcement of gender roles, but you also see issues the reverse way for helplessness and incompetence: old men who do not know how to cook or handle any household chores because their wives always did it for them.
Also yes, men do. Like me personally, I will hold open doors for other men even. And I’ve had doors opened for me too. These tradwife women high-key rude as fuck for never opening doors for people.
I do, but I always hate when there are two doors and then they feel obligated to do the double thank you. It's like bless yous with sneezes, three sneeze should only get you one bless you, two doors, one thank you.
I’m Canadian. We say sorry to strangers for small inconveniences that we are actively angry about. Like a double door “who opened it first and who holds what door” situation. You don’t realize how weird it is until you go to other countries and people laugh at you for apologizing in stupid situations.
I just wait in the room until someone else opens the door and then I can leave. It's a matter of principle for me and if I ever get out of this shed everyone will be doing it.
Man here. I haven't opened a door since 2005. When my wife isn't with me I just stand outside trying to hide my tears until a woman comes along to let me in.
I do so only when it is inconvenient, while maintaining eye contact and looking like I'm in a hurry, and the approaching person could hurry it up a bit.
Whenever I do this I say out loud, “Don’t you hate it when someone holds the door but you’re a bit further behind than they anticipated and now you feel like you have to hurry?” 😁
Must be ugly men who can’t even get a lady to open the door for them…
But for real, I’m a woman who opens the door for people who are approaching regardless of their gender and I wish for few things more than exclusively women who say things like this to have to deal with the men who get all pissy at a woman holding the door for them
Right? Put the ladies that make dumb demands with the guys who insist on doing that anyway and leave the rest of us alone. Sounds like a win-win for everybody.
Well, until the ladies figure out the guys are dicks, but maybe they should stop being cunts then and rejoin decent society.
One time, I arrived at a small store as an employee was finishing their smoke break, exchanged friendly words as we both went towards the door. In that moment, I realized that if I open the door, it'll be right in his way and I paused, unsure about how to handle it. He ended up opening it for me, but the whole thing felt awkward as fuck, like my pause was because I was waiting for him to open it for me. Easily the worst door opening experience I've ever had. I'm a dude btw.
Is it an autism thing that I kind of get annoyed when people hold doors for me? Like fuck, I was planning to open the door myself, now you just changed my plan.
Like every time or if you were like 40 feet away and now you feel like you have to walk faster to stop inconveniencing the person holding the door? Or like you have someone 40 feet behind you and now you worry if you should hold the door for them too, since the door was held for you?
Anything more than a one second pause in the doorway, like unless the door would be closed in my face as soon as I got to it. I still wouldn't mind it closing in my face but I would at least be anticipating it.
I've disliked it ever since an older man held the door open for me, but stood awkwardly in the doorway. He copped a feel as I tried to get past. Creepy.
Man woman child Martian I will open the door for you if I’m in a position to do so but I ain’t waiting with the door open for 30 seconds while you take your time
I was walking toward the door of an establishment last week and a gentleman several paces behind and to the side of me literally increased his stride, saying, "let me get that door for you!" I aqueisesced, and thanked him, noting there are still gentlemen left in the world; what could I do but let him approach the counter ahead of me, as we were both obviously on our way to work?
I'll never hold the door unless it's a public building, they're close enough that I wouldn't need to hold it for long, and they aren't a woman within 10 years of my age. My anxiety can't risk me being seen as a creep so I don't want someone to think I'm holding the door for them cause I'm attracted to them or anything like that.
Looking at the image another question immediately arises: Do non-AI generated women still exist?
It is vitally important that everyone learn AI skills so they can generate open doors for AI women
That's AI?! What gives it away?
she has no fingers
That's why she is struggling to open doors.
check couch/pillows
Looks like Vance was there.
That whole account looks like slop: https://xcancel.com/otokyo__
The skin looks too even and shines like plastic. The expression looks mindless.
Skin could be filtering/photoshop.
Mindless expression could be a mindless expression.
I do feel her face is a little wonky, like the perspective isn't quite right or her eyes aren't positioned quite correctly.
But nothing that makes me certain it is ai.
And the wonky face/eyes could be a filter too. It's definitely edited in some way, but nothing that screams AI specifically.
Well, part of the skin looking too even is that there's no shadows in the face. You're not gonna do that in Photoshop and I'd expect a filter to at least try to preserve your face looking like it's real, too.
But yeah, ultimately I'm just naming noticeable aspects, while it's really just an Uncanney Valley feeling that haunts me when looking at that freakshow of a face.

The expression, texture, etc
We had Photoshop even before we could somewhat convincingly generate full images of people.
Women don't exist at all.
Especially not on the Internet
I know I do; because I refuse to use windows.
Badum tss. (Yes, I use arch btw.)
(☞ﾟヮﾟ)☞
You're missing out on some quality electronics
Appreciate the sentiment, but my preference for linux is born from the desire to move away from proprietary American software more than anything else; It's a subject I feel strongly about (To the point where I'm using a Linux phone over android/iOS, self hosted matrix server instead of WhatsApp etc).
Um that's cool but I was making a joke about robbing rich people
Haha Oops.
Which Linux phone?
Same question here!
Volla Quintus running Ubuntu touch; it's european made too.
Nice, thank you for the answer.
Using a volla Quintus with Ubuntu touch. It does all I need a phone to do, but I wouldn't say it's at the stage ready for mass adoption yet.

The highlight of my corporate career was firmly pulling the door closed behind me, right in front of our security officer, who was following behind me.
If it's a man coming, I purposefully and with force, slam it shut and block it with my body.
If you just stand there, waiting for another man to
cumcome , that makes you gay.Stick it in the letter slot and I'll help you out.
I ONLY hold it if there's sex.
Gender is irrelevant.
Thats what I do. Hilarious if just so many people pour into the building and im stuck there for 5 minutes until some other poor schmuck takes my place.
I just hold it long enough for them to not have to open it again, but I let it go once they are in range to hold it themselves.
Ah, yes, the door curse. In order to free yourself, another must take your place.
Been my experience with random people for like a decade or more. The only people I've run into who seemed to care was this elderly couple in Alabama (I was visiting, live in GA) where the wife always waited for her husband to open doors, and my sister-in-law who has my brother open doors for her.

She grimaced and one of the regulars chimed in "youre wrong, shes definitely a harpy, not a vampire!"
And she stormed out.
Hilarious. So much for gender equality amiright? I bet she'd get all uppity if you told her to make you a sandwich, too.
I really don't understand people who want that. It's so infantilizing to have someone else do basic shit for you, especially if you need to wait for it.

I had a roommate like that. He was divorced and seemed to be proud of the fact that he didn't know how to cook.
Gender roles are just another artificial barrier that helps to rob your life of joy and meaning.
And as they pass through you say 'Age before beauty.'
I just bust through doors like homer in the Japan episode.
I just bust through walls like Kool Aid man.
Also yes, men do. Like me personally, I will hold open doors for other men even. And I’ve had doors opened for me too. These tradwife women high-key rude as fuck for never opening doors for people.

I don't open doors. I learned to phase-shift long ago so now I just go through doors when I need to.
I rely on quantum tunneling myself, to each his own
I just wait in the room until someone else opens the door and then I can leave. It's a matter of principle for me and if I ever get out of this shed everyone will be doing it.
All glory to Ken M
Is there a ken M community on the fedeverse?
I thought he died?
On Lemmy, men only use doors. Anything but windows, right gang?

BAZINGA!

Man here. I haven't opened a door since 2005. When my wife isn't with me I just stand outside trying to hide my tears until a woman comes along to let me in.
Men are just dogs 🤭
https://youtu.be/5LNlBIg4g3I (this track is a fun earworm)
If men wouldn't open doors a slowly increasing number of them would be stuck in rooms.
birthrate ?
3/10, do not recommend
As a man, I can confirm I just phase through the door.
Are you Barry Allen?
I hold open to the door for everyone when it's convenient!
I do so only when it is inconvenient, while maintaining eye contact and looking like I'm in a hurry, and the approaching person could hurry it up a bit.
Whenever I do this I say out loud, “Don’t you hate it when someone holds the door but you’re a bit further behind than they anticipated and now you feel like you have to hurry?” 😁
When they said "be the change you want to see in the world", this is not what they meant.
Interesting
No, of course not. We just check for potential witnesses before assuming our natural amorphous form so we can slither under them.
I believe I opened a door last week!
Oh, wow!
r/KenM was such a solid subreddit back in the day. Top tier comedy. Now it’s just fake profiles and bots that use the name for clicks.
"Mountains get so big because they have no natural predators."
Grand master trolling.
I can't actually argue with that statement
I wasn't familiar, so I had a poke around the internet and found some lists of his work. Bloody hilarious.
"If there was gravity in space the planets would fall down." :D
I don't know that the real Ken M is active anymore. But yeah, the imitators have never gotten his tone right.
Only once. Then I leave them open forevermore. Then I don't have to degrade myself with the process again.
i usually either opt for going through windows, or wait for a woman or an enby to open a door and then run at them aggressively before they close it
Must be ugly men who can’t even get a lady to open the door for them…

Well, until the ladies figure out the guys are dicks, but maybe they should stop being cunts then and rejoin decent society.
Dicks and cunts are a perfect match for each other.
As long as they don't procreate ;-)

This feels so familiar, I think I've done exactly that in the past.
Unless they have a signed JUDICIAL warrant with your name and address on it, that door remains shut.
I was born on the east coast of Canada. Everyone gets the door held for them, sometimes even when they're on the other side of the parking lot.
Judging whether a person is sufficiently distant for it to be acceptable not to hold the door is a classic Eastern Canadian trial.
I just BLJ past doors
I use the complex 12-step setup involving a couple of side jumps and rolls before jump-slashing through the gap next to the wall
You can save a few steps by applying the Macarena protocol.
I prefer to get mad skew from an akward slope
Yes, and I do find this instructional video quite useful to be able to perform this task
I personally vibrate on a molecular level and phase through them myself.
How unchivalrous of you
Yeah knights never did anything like that
Do you still take 40 shots and only save the best one b4 you post?
I thought she was AI ...
Why
Is it an autism thing that I kind of get annoyed when people hold doors for me? Like fuck, I was planning to open the door myself, now you just changed my plan.
Depends on the timing imo. Usually it's just a "ok I wasn't expecting that but sure" situation.
Like every time or if you were like 40 feet away and now you feel like you have to walk faster to stop inconveniencing the person holding the door? Or like you have someone 40 feet behind you and now you worry if you should hold the door for them too, since the door was held for you?
You can do the "push open the door more as you let it go" and let them decide if they would rather hurry to get it or just open it themselves.
Sometimes I pull out a cigarette, stop and pretend to light it, just to let them off the hook / make them stop waiting for me...
Anything more than a one second pause in the doorway, like unless the door would be closed in my face as soon as I got to it. I still wouldn't mind it closing in my face but I would at least be anticipating it.
I've disliked it ever since an older man held the door open for me, but stood awkwardly in the doorway. He copped a feel as I tried to get past. Creepy.
Maybe? Does it matter if it's an autism thing or not?
I don't have time for that!
Man woman child Martian I will open the door for you if I’m in a position to do so but I ain’t waiting with the door open for 30 seconds while you take your time
I have explosives. I make my own doors.
I do find it odd that there is never anything but a pile of rubble on the other side though.
We sort of just let ourselves get a boner and use it to push the door open now.

Reminded me of this.
IDK, personally I always wait until someone else uses it and I just kinda swoop in behind them.
Why would you open doors when doors can open you?
I don't, I like watching people bumping into them
This trick is closing a door silently. I learned to do that when my kids were small.
Or they have to wait for emancipated gallant women opening the doors for them.
That's AI, isn't it?
yes that is An Image
How to you know?
Pretty sure that's just a photo filter.
nice try clanker, an AI generated face won't fool me

We do, just not for you, AND ONLY YOU, sweetie. ;)
Why would a man need to open a door for chat gpt
ya
I'll never hold the door unless it's a public building, they're close enough that I wouldn't need to hold it for long, and they aren't a woman within 10 years of my age. My anxiety can't risk me being seen as a creep so I don't want someone to think I'm holding the door for them cause I'm attracted to them or anything like that.
Just keep a permanent look of disdain on your face, like if the person is really inconveniencing you.
I mean, there's no inconvenience at all in holding the door for someone. I just don't wanna do it if it's gonna lead to social anxiety for me.
I do. If I get to make it first I hold it open for them, male or female sometimes both
And then there are crazied dikes that get offended if u open doors
