As a furry, you either die a network engineer, or live long enough to go to Raytheon.
Couldn't you at least, like, switch to chinese Raytheon maybe?
If not, get canadian healthcare I guess
Either way, you're gonna end up hiding your face
Unfortunately this kind of thing is still common
These people (imperial soldiers, MIC ghouls, etc) need to be ejected from the furry community
And there is a basis for this kind of action, the furry subculture is full of marginalized people oppressed by the same system that these people serve
MIC ghouls need to get kicked from everywhere, even kkkountry kkklub.
Agreed
Literally the least we could do, besides smashing the imperialist MIC
This just brought back memories of that twitter account that posted furry comics that doubled as US military propaganda.

It was obviously someone fucking with people to cause drama or some kind of psyop that became a bit but yeah

Third picture feels like AI. It has that "I am an image generated based on a training set" feeling to it really strongly.
Given that none of the images this poster makes have the same style between them I'm going to guess they're all AI.
I'm not sure of the timeline here because the acct is suspended now and it's difficult to find screenshots or the art they uploaded but I think at least some of their art predates the good furry art generating AI models
Differing styles wouldn't be unusual because they could have been commissioning different artists rather than drawing it themselves
Edit: I found a source for the first image
https://www.deviantart.com/playfurry/art/Battlefield-560638322
It's from 2015 and unrelated
at least some of their art predates the good furry art generating AI models
Maybe feds had their own before the idea made its way out into the public. Generating fake pictures of people would be a useful thing for a fed faking identities online.
Feds have better things to do than manufacture furry drama online lol
If it was them they could have easily just paid someone to draw it
Why pay someone to draw it if you have a generative image tool to play around with?
The feds creating novel solutions (as of the time of posting) to one of the big problems of computer science to create online furry drama seems unlikely to me
Beyond just the furry drama it still seems highly unlikely the feds had/have exclusive AI tech that can generate pictures of new, realistic human faces when there have been conventional image editing techniques to do the same for decades now at much, much less cost than AI
This kind of thing isn't unheard of but it's usually exclusive to things like... cryptography (like the NSA figuring out differential cryptanalysis before anyone else) where there is no substitute for having this advantage regardless of cost
Well feds created the internet and try to propose changes to FOSS so it’s not out the realm of possibility. But it’s unlikely they’re infiltrating the furry community, and if they are, they’re lying to their boss about the reason.
I'm sure they're using AI now that it's out there and they probably have their own models or variant tech cuz it's not that hard to make your own at this point
Becoming a furry to network for my aerospace engineering career.
OG hyper artist
What is this?
(CW: sex/kink) if you actually want to know
Hyper is a word describing a particular kind of furry art, often sexualized, with characters that have unrealistically, sometimes fantastically, large body features. Like huge (if you're not familiar with this, you're probably not thinking large enough) breasts, paws, muscles, etc.
Thanks
I don't mind, but your spoiler tag is broken--I think the problem is not leaving a space between ::: and spoiler.
That's interesting, it looked right on my system! I edited it to add a space, is it good now? If you're comfortable sharing this info, what browser do you use? I'm on Firefox.
Sorry, just saw this! Yup, it looks good to me now. I was viewing it on Jerboa (an Android Lemmy client), so it could just be that the Markdown parser is a bit stricter than Lemmy's/Hexbear's native parser. Let me try testing it myself in Firefox for Android to see what I see:
with space
test
without space
test test
Aha! They both look fine in Firefox and Chrome, but the second one breaks in Jerboa. I also looked at the post from Lemmygrad and it still looks fine, so it's not Hexbear-specific.
