Look at all those superior genes.

Peak perfection.

More proof that you're not ugly, you're just poor.

I know I'm not ugly, but Elon Musk was and still is.

Somehow he looks more human to me back then

Boy sure bought a lot of gender-affirming care to get away from this. I wonder if he's sees this chinless, hairless, loser when he's tweaking on ketamine and staring into the bathroom mirror.

Loser.

Bodyshaming never hurts the insulted.

I mean, take the money, crop the photo slightly along the edge, thus making a new picture, not covered by the agreement.

I imagine Musk has the lawyers to write up a contract to cover those contingencies. Still immensely stupid to even try.

[–] stoy@lemmy.zip 10 points 2 months ago (1 children)

You are probably right, though it would be fun to argue at what point does the picture stop being the same picture, how much do you have to edit?

Dude. TIFF of Theseus.

Or 'Shop of Theseus, for a more layered joke.

The Gimp of Theseus is a totally different experiment. ಠ⁠ ͜⁠ʖ⁠ ⁠ಠ

Ask AI to do the crop. It's 100% not the same picture, just an AI generation in the same style.

[–] MML@sh.itjust.works 1 points 2 months ago

Could also just feed into AI

There's a Mastercard joke in there somewhere.

You can pay for your looks all you want but being recognizable as a reckless Nazi...priceless

I didn't get my 43 billion.

What a fucking dweeb

If he had a benevolent facial expression instead of a creepy one, he'd look normal. Maybe not pretty, but it'd be the kind of face you could find pretty if you were fond of the person it is attached to.

His general head area would still give testicle vibes, I think.
