- Wife saw her at the grocery store a couple years ago, she said she was a beautiful old person, just livin.nb
- What a sadhappy video. I'm sure that was impactful for Winona too, after having just lost her own mother (in awful manner).
Thanks for sharing!MondoMorphic - I never knew she'd been unwell, but seemed everyone was there for her. Listened to her songs so many times.PhanLo

I can't figure out discord. I don't know if it's terrible design or being in my 40s.
- Me too, things just seem to disappear way down the timeline.PhanLo
- I'm trying to try Midjourney, but even the screenshot for how to join the newbie thread doesn't even make sense.i_monk
- the new mIRCpablo28
- And it keeps saying my account is unclaimed after I've logged in. WTF.i_monk
- Lol, i_monk, I'm totally with you on the midjourney discord! It's entirely complicated compared to my usual discord usage :)Nairn
- Discord has given me so much happiness. Fucking rules. Yeah, I guess it's hard at first.cherub
- Sorted the account thing: every time you click an invite link it creates a new account instead of checking if you already have one. FFS.i_monk
- Also found the newbie thread. How stupid is discord that a dynamically updating post will scroll off your feed before it finishes?i_monk
- ya if you're not logged in on the browser and clicked a invite, it will ask you to created a new account.pango
- as for confusing server. blame that on the person organizing each channel/thread.pango
- but majority of the time i thing you guys are just old.pango
- Discord is great, iam over there all day long. I wish QBN would be there but it didnt work.Bennn
- lolNairn
- irc forever!sted
- <sted ^pablocanoe
- Yup me too and I'm pretty sure it's me being 48YakuZoku
- I won't even bother. I just tried to use Snap for the first time in years. What a disaster of design and functionality!formed
- Lol this is like a thread of old people talking about how hard e-mail isnb
- ^ lolpango
- Signs I'm really old: What _is_ discord?SimonFFM
- @formed Snap IS fucking wrong UXgrafician
- @simon A platform for people to create forum with emphasis on voice/video call.
most features free but advance features only for subscribers.pango - no ads. no selling your info.pango
- lot of gamers use their voice call feature instead of ingame voice call feature. cuz it has been more stable and clear.pango
- I vaguely remember I created an account once, but could not join any groups, because everything is by invite?drgs
- Anyway, for someone like me who has been crawling internet on my hands and feet for 30 years, having seen all different types of messengersdrgs
- ICQ, MSN, AIM, Facebook messenger, Google talk, Skype, you have that feeling that Discord too will be replaced with something else, maybe even within 5 yearsdrgs
- So why invest time into thisdrgs
- because it's not 5 years yet. there is absolutely no incentive to join if you dont already have a group that interests you.pango
- i like it cuz you can use other people's code or write your own code to do some cool stuffs. i mainly hang out there just for the gaming and art community.pango
- Email is faster than sending a letter through the post officenb
- never used Slack? Discord is pretty’s much the same UIernexbcn
- 38 here and it seems effortless to pick up new tech atm. Not looking forard to 10 years from now.kalkal
- My issue with most new apps (not really "tech" is it?) is I don't see the point of it. But in discord's case I hate the UI... & don't see the point of it.i_monk
- it's just another forum. that's it. you dont have to use it. there are so many variations of things in the world. why does this one bother you?pango
- re: it's badly designedi_monk
- :/ not sure. i navigates just fine.pango
- the midjourney discord ..channel.. is just particularly dense, if you're not accustomed to it. Discord itself is pretty clean and easy, despite Pango's efforts.Nairn
- (He made one of the QBN channels quite opaque by adding loads of cruft, over-complicating it... bastard! :) )Nairn
- How to see a list of servers Im on? I have joined the QBN channel, but when I revisit Discord at a later time, its gone...drgs
- They should just be listed by iconm down the left hand side of your interface, no? I use the web interface, but I think the app is the same, no?Nairn
- The invite links you handed out were temporary
https://i.imgur.com/…drgs - Pango sent me a proper one. To add on the topic of terrible design: Not once during the process did it say the invite was temporarydrgs
- You have to google this bs and read through hundreds of similar problems until you find out whats wrongdrgs
- I didn't send invites - that was either palimpsest or bennnnn. There are 2 QBN channels, with only me in one of them, making it the better one.Nairn
- https://www.qbn.com/…drgs
- oh. haha - never trust a goddamn thing i say,Nairn
- https://www.qbn.com/…Nairn
- No, the invite itself link is permament, but it grants temporary membership. I assume it is possible to create temporary invites for permanent membershipdrgs
- permanent invites for permanent membership and temporary invites for temporary membership, I love Discord!drgs
- I'm confused every time I go on and there's tons of messages. where to look first?mapleT
- Telegram > Discordgarbage
- LOL I've never ran into this temporary member invite thing cuz nobody ever sent anyone that. Till now.pango
- mapleT
this is the notification inbox. you can start there.
https://i.imgur.com/…pango - naim. dud there are only 1 info channel, 1 log channel and 1 chatting channel. it's not that complicated lolpango
- i just checked. invite generation was permitted for everyone. so whoever sent drgs the tem member ship invite was a troll lol. i've removed everyone permitpango
- to create new invites. just use the invite link in the info channel. no more confusion.
LOLpango - Who are we kidding, none of us can figure out Discorddrgs
- you guys are great as beta testers :P
running into problems no one i know runs into.pango - k just looked at Midjourney. maybe cuz i have experience with discord. seen pretty straight forward to me.pango
- but yes because they have so much traffic activities going on, it's hard to keep up what's going on.pango
- to makie it easy to navigate, you can mute the server notification and set it to only get pinged when you're mentioned.pango
- then use the notification inbox to jump to the post you were mentioned.pango

I get upset when woke people say every woman is beautiful and could appear on a magazine cover.
No. Not everyone is pretty. This has nothing to do with discrimination. Not every man is handsome and not every food tastes good.
This is all highly subjective and there are people who can run faster than others. But we should all get respected and treated well.
Still no cover for everyone.
- Everyone is beautiful but not in the way that is suitable for every magazine cover. A different magazine might be suitable.nb
- What is a beauty magazine other than a collection of photos, articles and ads that all fit together and work as a collection?nb
- I say good art direction can bring anyone (on a cover) to look good. models, actors are easier because they know how to pose and what‘s expected.uan
- I get upset too easily.SimonFFM
- Yup,some real fugly uglies out there.zardoz
- I ❤ Blonde Bimbos - Don't hate!utopian
- Blame corporations and clothing/ sport companies like Nike who are pushing overweight women as "beautiful". Cuz more $$ to be madeNBQ00
- Oh yeah and radical feminism.NBQ00
- Is it because of the latest Playboy Germany cover?drgs
- Look at a woman's catalogue on a mainstream clothing website. All sizes. All shapes. Look at mens. All six packs, all perfect.inteliboy
- Some things you say.
Some things you only think.
The way of the world.jagara - It's just how marketing works.inteliboy
- isn't beauty subjective? i beat there is a magazine featuring chubby women. or toes magazine.pango
- You are all right. Did the best thing you can do: grabbed my skateboard and went riding at 10am. I was the only one in the skatepark.SimonFFM
- NBQ00 is there $$ to be made putting obese women in your ads? lolyuekit
- The majority of people find young health women with a good waste to hip ratio. Biology, how does it work?Chimp
- *Find attractive.Chimp
- I would say within every society there are different ideas about what is beautiful, sometimes good sometimes badyuekit
- For instance in Asian countries you'll notice they rarely feature dark-skinned people in ads in spite of much of the population looking that way. And it's moreyuekit
- of a class discrimination thing than anything racial (dark skinned people tend to be poor and working outside). If someone want to start a woke campaign toyuekit
- If you shave my pubes, I think I could be good enough for a cover...shapesalad
- change that I think it would be a good thing.yuekit
- No fat guys in fashion or on magazine covers. Is it because men haven't complained about it?de4k
- Biologically humans are programmed to find attractive certain types. Culture adds another level of complexity.Chimp
- Some interesting discussions here:
https://www.youtube.…Chimp - I think there's a perception that putting these skinny blond women on the cover, you're basically just mentally torturing the average Western woman who willyuekit
- never look like that.yuekit
- Like a lot of the stuff the Western left obsesses about it's a somewhat frivolous concern, but the basic idea of being conscious about social stereotypesyuekit
- isn't wrong.yuekit
- White male soft porn photographer gets upset because diversity.mort_
- The trend is to make it so everybody is a winner. Problem is, think of football. You need a winner, there can't be 2 winners, there has to be a loser or winningcherub
- doesn't mean anythingcherub
- there's a new winner every year. the idea there is only 1 is an illusion.uan

- Tony Soprano. Every dude wanted to be him and every chick wanted to do him. He was on tons of covers. ‘Nuff said lol_niko
- What’s a magazine? Isn’t that the antique version of some aspect of the internet?shapesalad
- Tony Soprano? Are you fucking high? I mean, the character? Probably. The fat dude James Gandolfini? Fuck no.********
- I mean, fame makes you a bit more attractive, but there's a limit********
- . sadly most people only care about first sight beauty .. which most often turns into a dissapointment wears off so fast..neverscared
- a visual cover is easy to achieve ...multisensensory beauty by adding audio is harder....thats why nealy no models have career in film...neverscared
