[Done with programmer's assistants: Gemini, DALL-E] OpenAI's DALL-E produces images, but as webp files which can be awkward to work with. I have code here below for a web page that you can save locally that will allow you to select and convert a webp file. Meantime, here's the working conversion routine: Convert WebP to PNG Convert Download PNG OpenAI should fix this (as well as the response issues which has me using Gemini and Poe more often than not). Having to convert the image is a dumb workaround, but that is what you are left with. I have, in the past had to do various things with images, and although it can be a bit awkward if you are not familiar with it, ImageMagick is surprisingly competent with conversions and a vanilla type conversion is intuitively simple. Confusingly, the ImageMagick executable is 'convert'. To convert a webp to a png: magick convert WhyThis.webp WhyThis.png ** With some installations, convert can be ca...

The Crisis at Hand Something has gone terribly wrong in the United States. A coup has taken place , and the country is being run by a corrupt cabal. This is not speculation. It is happening. The government is ignoring the rule of law. Dissent is being crushed. Federal agencies are being used as weapons against civilians. Constitutional protections are being dismantled piece by piece. The entirety of the U.S. Federal Government apparatus is being dismantled. Foreign adversaries are becoming allies and allies are being alienated, betrayed, attacked. The endgame is to eliminate the Constitution and its checks and balances, shatter the system of governance, replace it with an autocratic regime under a dictator, and ultimately to replace the United States of a America with a fractured checkerboard of autocratic fiefdoms under tyrannical petty feudal lords. Russia's Putin seems to be intent on reducing the United States to a puppet vassal state under the thumb of a new Soviet ...
