If it matters ... it matters / Are you bored
and have nothing better to do?

Then you can look through ways too many pages to find a rabbit and an egg for ridiculous 20% down

Can you follow the clues below and find the products? 
Look for "🥚🐰" at the top of the product description and you'll know that you've located the correct product. 
Add as many as you can find and then use the coupon code: EASTERHUNT for 20% off of your order!
The Coupon will ONLY work on products that are part of this event - You can use the coupon code as many times as you'd like until 4/5/2026 at 11:59 PM (cdt)
The More You Find, The More You Save—Happy Hunting! 🐰

I wonder if people at rosity will ever learn.
I mean serious, 25 vendors, some with 10 and more pages in their stores and the clues, that are given, aren't a really big help.

I for sure will not search like a maniac for ridiculous 20% down and then, even better, to find out, that I already owe a product.
Are they out of their minds?

Poser / Give me one reason
Ok, I did it, I downloaded Poser 14 and took a look.
Loaded a figure and right away I was like WTF?

Brows/lashes/cloth/hair you name it, load and then "attach to"

Got my figure dressed, set some lights, render *aaarrgghh* forgot to switch from this stupid superfly and the result was like that.
Changed to firefly, tried several lights, moving them around to get a good result, but the render came out just dull.

Even though I have some originals that only work in Poser, cause they were made for Poser. NOPE!
For me there isn't even a quarter reason to use Poser ever again.

Btw. un-installed and deleted the rest, what windows always forget to delete, the folder it was installed to.

If it matters ... it matters / Reasons against AI
Do you need reasons in a discussion with a pro AI idiot?

I posted this at renderosity, but am afraid, it won't last long and will be deleted soon.
We all know, how this page is ruled.
But if you feel stuck and need a reason in a discussion, feel free to use this:

AI's resource demands are substantial and growing rapidly, driven by the energy-intensive nature of training and running large models in data centers.

Electricity: AI servers consume vast amounts of electricity—300 terawatt-hours (TWh) annually by 2028 in the U.S., enough to power over 28 million households.  This represents a threefold increase from 2023 levels, with AI-specific electricity use projected to grow 150-fold from 2017 to 2028.  A single large AI data center can use as much power as 100,000 homes.

Water: Cooling AI servers is extremely water-intensive. The U.S. could require up to 720 billion gallons of water annually just for cooling by 2028—equivalent to the annual indoor water needs of 18.5 million households.  This includes 1.3 to 2.4 gallons of water per kWh of energy used for cooling.  Some data centers, like those in Phoenix, use about 385 million gallons per year for cooling alone, not including water used to generate electricity.

Other Resources:

Cooling systems rely on fresh, treated water to prevent bacterial growth and blockages; Google-owned centers discharge only 20% of withdrawn water, with the rest lost to evaporation.
Supply chains for AI hardware (e.g., GPUs, microchips) require 8–10 liters of water per chip for manufacturing.
Fossil fuel-powered electricity amplifies water use and carbon emissions, as thermoelectric power plants consume significant water for cooling.
Land and minerals: Data centers require large land areas and rely on rare earth elements and metals, often mined unsustainably.
Key Insight: While a single ChatGPT query uses only ~0.32 milliliters of water (about 1/15th of a teaspoon), the cumulative impact across billions of queries is immense.  The environmental cost is especially high in water-stressed regions like Arizona and the Southwest, where data centers compete with agriculture and communities for limited water supplies.

Conclusion: AI’s resource footprint—especially electricity and water—is not negligible, and current growth trends threaten climate goals, water security, and energy infrastructure.

Any tool / Crocheting
I know, it don't really fit in here, but something like this can happen, when I have too much time on my hand, a huge pile with synthetic wool I never would use for clothing, but also don't wanna throw away.

It all started with a long braid and no clue, what to do with it.
So I took my crochet needle and began, still no clue, what could come out, until my mobile phone rang.
And I decided to make a purse for my mobile.

Not sure though, if I will use it at all and if for the mobile.

If it matters ... it matters / High prices
Ever wondered, why all has become so expensive at rosity?
Well, I don't wonder any longer, cause I just found out.

Wanted to put a new product into the store and saw, that I have to (if I want or not) $ 9.50 for it.
NOPE! This would be robbery and I won't do that!

Daz Studio / Animation
You wanna know, what insanity is?
I'll tell you  :))

Rendering an animation in daz studio is not only insane, it can bring you straight into the next asylum  :o

https://rumble.com/v757eau-5-hours-for-14-frames.html

Over 5 hours for 14 frames, the complete sequence was made with 108 frames, so almost 2 days to get it done and my PC would have to run non stop.
Maybe if I win the lottery and would win big times, to buy an extreme strong and fast PC, but with this PC I have now --- NEVER!

If it matters ... it matters / Keep on betraying
From absolute NO AI
to
enhance with AI is ok, but mark it
to
AI get an own gallery
to
we have to discuss AI in the store but mark it "made with AI"

and all with the lame excuse, they have to keep up with the fast change

But the worst part is, that the people don't have a bone in their bodies and say loud and clear NO. Instead they are really discussing to allow AI destroying the very last little bit of their work.
Will we see people leaving this so called store?
Nope, we won't.

It's all so sickening!
