That's what the world needs more of, Dan.

Go chop some wood, Dan.

Take your shirt off, put that cowboy hat on, lube up those abs...

Make sure the camera is in landscape mode this time.

Make you feel better.

If I had a wad of cash Dan, I'd make it rain on you just like we're in the club with a bottle full of bub.

I did clear some brush and branches with the machete yesterday, to let out some aggression.

Machetes are so perfect for that. I should really take mine out today and chop some shit down.

I usually prefer a saw but... I may give the machete another try. I'm always afraid the blade is gonna break tho.

Machetes are badass, fun, and dangerous all at the same time. Lol. Keep track of where that blade is going, don't throw it too on accident, sweaty palms.

I use my hatchet for bigger branches.

They are definitely dangerous. I always use a thick pair of leather gardening gloves too, because I use a small saw that actually folds, it was fairly cheap from Amazon and God knows I don't trust those locking mechanisms. But there's something so satisfying about sawing through the branches.

Machete is obviously the winner for extended periods of clearing, you tire out fast using a saw. Gonna head out sometime today with my biggest machete (Cold Steel) and I'm confident that fucker won't break. There are some things that need to be cleared.

Nice. I can sharpen the blade too in like a minute with my file. I need a saw that i can sharpen easy.

I love serrated blades but the difficulty in sharpening them is the main reason I don't collect too many of them.

I do need to get a full serrated EDC cuz I think it's good to have one of each on you, never know when a serrated blade is gonna come in handy.

I just watched an AI video of an Asian woman mukbang. It was soooo boring and soulless, all while being nearly perfect picture quality. It was like watching paint dry, in high definition! Lol

Very interesting. Yeah, I don't think AI generated videos of "people" doing "regular stuff" is gonna take off. I mean, God help us if it does. Yikes.

I think it'll be very useful for generating scenes for movies though. I've talked about this before, but the doors it opens for people who have screenplays but no monetary capability to produce them will make movies with AI. I think it will be very good. Maybe not with the iterations of the technology as it exists right now, but certainly in the future.

Personally, I'd absolutely make a movie with AI.

It's just not quite "there" yet in terms of consistency with the way generated characters look, and there are other glitchy elements present that would definitely break the mood way too much if you were to use it for filmmaking right now.

But the time is coming, and when it does, I'm ready.

Yeah, this guy is great, and uses some AI genration for his vids. I don't REALLY mind it, but it isn't great either.

Once the technology has improved enough and these tools are easily available to the public, movies/shows are gonna go to a whole new level. It'll be nothing short of revolutionary. Some people will be against it in the beginning, and I get it.

But eventually, it'll just be normal. Quality will keep rising and there will be no excuse not to watch a movie that was written with human passion/vision and adapted to the screen with AI. It is what it is. This is just the era we live in now.

Nice. It is kind of just fancy CGI, but with a computer doing more than usual.

Definitely. And I really can't wait to see it.

I am not excited for hollywood itself to use this tech...

But I want to see what everyday people can do to bring their own dreams and ideas to life.

And I do think ultimately hollywood will no longer be a thing.

It is the death of the old guard, finality.
