OP mentioned that their Kid has not been taught the concept of negative numbers yet. So the -50 for the lower right part of the right "brick wall" wouldn't make sense either.

If only the comic artist himself didn't admit in the interview that "yeah I heavily rely on AI generation myself"...

its very important that you blame the criminals for “stealing” and not meta for failing to do the minimum of protecting ~~users~~ products.

there, fixed it for you. If you don't pay for it you are the product.

I don't think it's meant to replace it in the general, just for artificially generated pictures specifically.

As far as I understood the concept, the website still generates genuine AI output, because you're supposed to guess whether the thing you're rating is Genuinly AI or Human RPing as AI, no?

Or beforehand.

Edit2 is the more correct one.

As per German law, a contract or a renewal of a contract requires both parties to consent.

Since Netflix only offered a "Yes I accept" button and no "I decline, please cancel my subscription" one, the Price Hike is illegal and thus void.

About a year old news, but same thing in Germany

Rough Translation:

Good news for Netflix customers: The Cologne Regional Court ruled on May 15, 2025, that Netflix's price increases in 2017, 2019, and 2021 were unlawful (Case No. 6 S 114/23). The streaming service had ultimately simply raised its prices unilaterally – without a valid contractual basis.

Although customers had to agree to the higher prices in their account ("Agree to price increase"), the court ruled that this was not a genuine choice. Due to the wording surrounding the agreement button, users saw no way to keep the old price – therefore, it was not a case of voluntary consent.

Consequently, the crucial question again was whether Netflix had the right to unilaterally increase prices for existing customers. This required a valid price change clause in Netflix's terms and conditions. In this respect, the Cologne Regional Court followed the decisions already issued by the Berlin Higher Regional Court and deemed the price change clauses in Netflix's terms and conditions to be unreasonably disadvantageous and therefore invalid.

There is a statutory period of limitation of 3 years as per German law though, so you can only reclaim the higher paid costs for 2022-2025.
