It is and it isn't. There's a ton of tech waste and lots of people get rid of systems that are still quite capable. Obviously there's less power but even a 6 year old gaming rig can still run most games, just at lower framerates

Hahaha okay great I was just feeling sorry for your back!

Tap it off on your ankle or a chair leg.

The floor? Have you heard of brooms and mops?

Use a decent quality duster, cheaper options retain way less dust.

Dust from high to low in a room or area.

After a few strokes, tap out the duster at ground level, on your ankle or a hard surface. This minimizes dust getting in the air.

Finally, vacuum.

Spoken like a terrible human being.

The corrections to the paper literally ask for actual quotes lol

They're designed to run constantly, and your GPU is designed to run with some heat. I highly doubt you're maxing out either like you would with a demanding game. Fans are much cheaper than a new separate device, and your GPU will become outdated long before it dies to wear and tear.

Literally all of the arguments in this post apply equally to people freshly out of high school, except that most of them won't have well-paying jobs already. But then again, if an adult has a well-paying job why are they thinking about going back to school?

Why will using your PC "run it into the ground"? Unless you're trying to use it for something else simultaneously, it seems like you've already got a solution there.

Honestly your sketching is quite solid, you've obviously got a decent knowledge of anatomy. All you need is some color theory and some practice, which AI will rob you of.

Alternately you could pay a real artist to color and finish your sketches, this is how comics and many other works are traditionally done.

If you use AI, I would definitely disclose that in the description of the book, and as a consumer I would certainly be turned off by that fact. The fact that you're using it to enhance your own art absolutely makes it better, but the finished product still isn't really your art any more.

I discovered Shaun this year and binged most of his videos. The War On Science was this year and is great, though 4+ hours is a big commitment... Most of his other stuff is shorter.
