I feel like a real plumber would look at this, and just say "Now what the hell have you got going on HERE??? NO NO NO NO NO!!!! This is all wrong! Copper pipes aren't meant to be an asthetic! Why are there so many stupidly designed pipes??? And what the hell are you doing to that wrench???? Nooooo, none of this adds up! This isn't real! This has to be a simulation! I'm living in a simulation! A poorly made simulation!"

Then he takes out a gun to kill himself, but it morphs into several tangled copper pipes vaguely resembling a gun and shoots out water.

"THATS NOT HOW PIPES WORK!!! IT'S NOT EVEN CONNECTED TO ANYTHING!!! WHERE'S THE WATER SOURCE???"

I'm 90% sure I've actually seen something like this in real life as a towel hanger

Once you embrace the idea that copper pipes are meant to be an aesthetic, the possibilities are endless!

Real plumber:

"This needs more copper pipes, I charge by the hour and for materials and oh boy are both of those expensive."

To be fair, a real plumber says that every time they enter a bathroom to start a job.

To be fair.......

Electricians are worse. They will loudly complain that whoever the prior work did a terrible job, and it doesn't pass code. Even if they were the elec-chicken that did it. I swear it's a legal requirement.

Was going to mention how my company did a stupid powerpoint slide and filled it with computer generated graphics, and it struck me that the only thing I remember from this presentation is how dumb the graphics were.

You had these melty corporate "people" working on laptops with screens on the wrong side, and that's all I remember; how fucking ugly and shitty it all looked, and how annoyed I was at the waste of time. I don't recall the subject matter at all.

It felt like, if they can't be bothered to put together a proper presentation, and instead just fill it with ugly computer generated bullshit, then why should I put effort into taking that in? My take-away from the entire thing is that I miss clip art. Which is funny because clip art makes everything shit.

Does anyone have the phone number for this company? I was hoping to find someone to install a sink in my driveway.

If we ever get sanity back in this country, can we ban the government from making faux-Soviet propaganda posters with AI?

What they can't even use the good image generators? They gotta use this GPT3 bullshit with the pipes all nonsensical?

The biggest time saver of AI is its implicit permission to not care about the result.

22

Their disgusting over use of AI shows that they don't respect human workers anyway; even many of the current republican voters will understand this, and jump ship.

Their overuse of AI imagery shows that they believe in post truth leadership. Trump posted a fucking picture of himself walking with a star wars aliens and passed it off as real.

Then the official disclosure (also lies) described that species as being like 4 feet tall, rather than taller than Trump, showing he has no attention to detail and doesn't even read his own memos.

Can someone actually fucking deal with this deranged despot? The most expensive thing we can do to the Zionist regime in Israel is force them to buy another president. Get Trump out of the oval office.

So they have to use an AI to get a picture of a damn sink???

31

No, they had to use AI because they would absolutely rather not be seen in the same room as a working person.

1

If you just pull a sink from a photo or stock photo, you have to Photoshop it. That takes skill.

Also, putting slip on social media will always get you attention.

Can’t even get the flag right.

when the flag patch is worn on the right sleeve, it appears reversed so that the blue union (the stars) faces forward.

What the fuck kinda tool is she supposedly using?

A pipe wrench, natch!
She's got a half-crescent wrench in her swanky tool belt too!

Betty, I got no idea how you F up a pipe wrench that bad, but go throw that thing away, and stand in the corner while I rip out these expensive pipes you've installed everywhere pipes don't go.

The pipes and tools are crazy, but I also think we've got some sort of half-hover van in the back? I swear there's a wheel missing, and I don't think the frame is square / straight / structurally sound.

  • plumbing is not on the front of a sink (obviously)
  • why the fuck would he need a pipe wrench that big when all of the pipes in the view appear to be soldered copper?
  • what tool is she actually using?
  • what purpose would the wrench on her right hip serve in a closed loop system like this?
21

Why is the sink outside?

Why is there a big truck in the background?

Why are there so many pipes?

The tool she's using is Wireless Acetylene™️

This was my exact thought as well, got the monkey wrench handle with a torch head. The future is here.

This is what you get when you deport skilled trades and hire from the Kid Rock memorial trailer park.

...Nnnot that I want to defend the Soviet Union, but their propaganda poster artists did stuff just like this, except they didn't put absolutely cursed piping things in the illustrations, and this despite the fact the artists were probably hella drunk or something.

18

Oh god.....I know I commented earlier on this thread, but I didn't notice the toolbelt! The wrench is only half a wrench!!!

You would think a federal department would at least check to make sure the flag patch isn't on backwards. The blue field should be leading in the direction of forward movement, dipshits.

americans are obsessed with their nazi rag.

They can be obsessed and stupid at the same time.

I've seen it either way. That's the least problematic part of this whole thing.

It's in the actual Flag Code, which the federal government should care about. A lot of pop-culture gets it wrong because it looks bad to people that don't really know any better. Of course that's why the AI got it wrong, because it was trained on TV shows instead of the actual regs.

3

I actually can't find anything in the flag code about that. I find a lot of other organizations citing the flag code, and purporting that same point though.

I'm in the military. In the uniform regs it dictates what you're saying. But that's not the flag code.

This doesn't look like it's depicting the military though... Also, pop culture influence doesn't make it a bad thing IMO. Being lazy and avoiding paying artists to produce slop is. Especially when this is supposedly the party of "hard work" and "bootstraps"

You can wear the flag any way you want, assuming you aren't in the military and in uniform.

Not sure this would register as a seduction attempt. I'd just assume that guy always walks around like that.

Yet no skills went into making this poster. No real artist. No real actors. No real plumbers. No real photographer. They say they care about skills but show that they don't.

Solder isn't just used for electronics, it's also used in plumbing. Search 'sweating a joint' if you're interested

8

that doesnt look like plumbing solder nor do they have a solder tool lol

They forgot to take it out of the hover van. In fairness, I would also forget, after crashing through the bathroom wall and having the van tires fly off out of sight.

2

They want kids out of universities because it's the sharing of ideas that pushes bad ideas out.

Once the entire workforce is uneducated menial workers, they'll just replace them with robots.

Feels like the cover of a murder mystery... Like he's going to whack her with the wrench.

You know it's so when the van is backwards. Clearly those copper pipes should be attached to the car's exhaust
