I find the unbalanced microfuge triggering.

[-] fossilesque@mander.xyz 21 points 3 weeks ago* (last edited 3 weeks ago)

This is the first thing I saw. I'm so triggered. I have a broken centerfuge lid on my desk rn that unbalanced everything for years. I think I'm going to keep it to remind me that "this too shall pass."

[-] NorthernDreams@lemmy.world 14 points 3 weeks ago

Perfectly balanced, as all things should be.

[-] alzymologist@sopuli.xyz 6 points 3 weeks ago

I got this vibe from fridge. One of the reasons I often put some frozen hornets in those, no packaging. Deters people from doing stupid things.

[-] BodyBySisyphus@hexbear.net 2 points 3 weeks ago

I'm glad it's not just me

[-] bricklove@midwest.social 36 points 3 weeks ago

I hate that the AI slop that copied this style is ruining my ability to enjoy the original

[-] djmikeale@lemm.ee 18 points 3 weeks ago

all you had to do was follow the god-damn experimental design, CJ

[-] gofsckyourself@lemmy.world 14 points 3 weeks ago* (last edited 3 weeks ago)

Thank God this meme was muted. I had my volume on max and that mouse would have blown out my eardrums.

But seriously, please just spend the 10 seconds it takes to reverse image search and find a better copy, or ideally the original so you can link to the creator's post.

You can tell this is accurate because there are no brown people involved.

[-] alzymologist@sopuli.xyz 7 points 3 weeks ago

Nah, top left is totally one of them hardcore STEM ladies from Uruguay

[-] MeowZedong@lemmygrad.ml 1 points 3 weeks ago

They're all in the lab working ridiculously long hours.

[-] roguetrick@lemmy.world 13 points 3 weeks ago

Who's the bigger villain: Trump or Reviewer #2?

[-] StalinIsMaiWaifu@lemmygrad.ml 7 points 3 weeks ago

Reviewer #2, he's in it for the love of the game, Trump is doing this for money

[-] rustydrd@sh.itjust.works 6 points 3 weeks ago

Reviewer 2 didn't read my paper and makes it my problem. Trump didn't read a book in his life and makes it the world's problem.

[-] Pipster@lemmy.blahaj.zone 8 points 3 weeks ago

Parafilm representation! I love that stuff. I totally, absolutely didn't used to completely mummify samples we sent away to the miserable dicks at our sister lab...

[-] Kyle_The_G@lemmy.world 4 points 3 weeks ago

I love the stuff. There are so many tools I use that I'd love at home, parafilm is one of them. The other is a hot plate/magnetic stir bar I'd use for soup/cooking.

[-] alzymologist@sopuli.xyz 2 points 3 weeks ago

They are awful for cooking, believe me, I have a home lab.

Induction hobs are great for lab though, except for glass vessels, of course.

[-] SoleInvictus@lemmy.blahaj.zone 2 points 3 weeks ago

I just love the feeling of when it stretches.

[-] KindnessIsPunk@lemmy.ca 3 points 3 weeks ago

This would make a great sequel to Bully

[-] Outdoor_Catgirl@hexbear.net -2 points 3 weeks ago
[-] Wordplay@hexbear.net 11 points 3 weeks ago

what makes you think this is ai?

[-] Outdoor_Catgirl@hexbear.net 1 points 3 weeks ago

Vibes, mostly

[-] Binette@lemmy.ml 1 points 3 weeks ago

not the same guy, but bottom-right image has inconsistencies in how one would usually render water.

the bottom puddle covers the line it goes over from, while the top puddle doesn't

[-] Zetta@mander.xyz 10 points 3 weeks ago* (last edited 3 weeks ago)

This aint AI bud, someone already provided source website and also look at the text on the parafilm. Image models are getting much better at text but all that small text on the parafilm packaging is too good for ai. Also on the parafilm it has the creators website written out.

~~downvote for ai slop~~

i was wrong

i apologize and rescind my downvote

[-] Grimy@lemmy.world 15 points 3 weeks ago

How so? I dont think this is AI, nor is your comment bringing anything even if it was.

~~my comment brings attention to the fact that its low effort garbage.~~

i was wrong

[-] wischi@programming.dev 10 points 3 weeks ago

You comment just brings attention to the fact that you didn't even look at the signature in the picture and look up the artist.

[-] fossilesque@mander.xyz 9 points 3 weeks ago

You're forgiven, lovely. ๐Ÿ’š

[-] MeowZedong@lemmygrad.ml 2 points 3 weeks ago
[-] Jankatarch@lemmy.world 4 points 3 weeks ago

I don't see any compression artifacts and sound icon in bottom right is well done. Also there is the signature from artist.
