[Discussion] Bitcoin Pizza Day on Bitcointalk 🍕

[acroman08]

But he just took a picture on Google and just pasted the letter B and paper that was in the photo himself.

that is just embarrassing, there is no way he thought that no one would notice his badly edited image, that guy is probably just trying to fish for some merit hoping that the Meritor would only look at the first or second images. he could've easily joined the competition, it's not that hard to make a pizza even if you don't have an oven, all you need is just some effort.

For now this is my favorite pizza to win this contest. The onions enhance the presentation, despite the Bitcoin logo not being perfect, as you said. I really want to taste your pizza; it looks so delicious. I hope you win this contest!

Thank you very much mate.

Imagine using AI for a contest. What a bitch move.

using AI is still better, and the results are also better,
But he just took a picture on Google and just pasted the letter B and paper that was in the photo himself.

So... as long as someone didn't took the picture on Google, using AI is better than made the pizza by ourselves? I don't understand what's your point for saying that.

Just a wild guess, maybe you're also use AI to create the pizza?

[bitbollo]

unfortunately I will not participate, because I have never made any pizza and I will avoid to miss-represent this holy food.

Probably most of you are unaware, but here in Italy we take food really serious   don't joke with this stuff ...

...It's very normal to receive death threats if a chef proposes "unorthodox" variations

By the way, please remember that in Italy if you will request a pizza with fruit you will just not served.
If police see this, at least they will ask your document/if you have take too much beer etc etc...

Personally I will disqualify all pizza with fruit since these are far far away from our tradition and technically you can't find in any local pizzeria and will make my grandmother cry!   [just kidding...]

Joking aside, happy pizza day to all fellow bitcoiners...and good luck to all participants !

But he missed that easy opportunity and used a fairly instant way (though still through editing).
Even many who make pizza without the help of an oven, here originality is taken into account even though some ways of making are different.

LOL, it's just a comparison if you have to choose which one is better even if it's not original (but it's not allowed to use AI in this contest).

Just try to check my homemade pizza whether it uses AI or not, it looks mouthwatering and delicious.
It takes about 12 hours to prepare everything from sourcing materials, manufacturing to photoshoots.

I just found out about the fact of the pizza you provide, but once that pizza is made in another country,
everything will change and will follow the traditions of each country.

Like Pizza Hut & Domino's Pizza that modify their pizza according to where they are.
So about pizza always having to be authentic it may only apply in Italy, not anywhere else, But I appreciate the information you provide.

I hope your grandmother doesn't see this forum with a variety of pizzas from different countries.

No don't get fooled.
Unfortunately, according Italian laws, this type of crimes are prosecuted even if committed abroad... we don't care about "food traditions of each country" if they are cooking italian food

...
I hope your grandmother doesn't see this forum with a variety of pizzas from different countries.

I hope too, since she will die for the second time in a row

(again guys, just kidding, enjoy your pizza and have fun!!!)

Some people say it's Photoshopped. Those who say so can prove? Since I am a very young accountant, I had high hopes of receiving a gift.

It seems you really deserve a prize

HAPPY BITCOIN PIZZA DAY 2024 🍕🍕

To you too, shame you use cheap AI tricks to celebrate it.

I don't understand this at all - it takes time to register on BTT, to generate and upload fake pizzas, to edit the nametag in photoshop - but OK, this guy didn't try that hard.
It would have taken him maybe 20 more minutes to actually make the pizza, and he'd have something to eat as well.

Anyway, reported.

Some times it's not just about the time it will cost them to prepare the actual pizza, but some people just like to see them self-cheat others; they don't like to stress themselves out doing anything by themselves, even if the resources are made available. They just feel like using AI is the best for them; it makes them feel good and smart to cheat without indirectly knowing that they are only shaming themselves.

Personally, I think people just like to abuse things.. if you give them opportunity they will want to take it for granted. Almost all contest that I have experienced in this forum someone somewhere most surely want to cheat, a cheater is a cheater, an abuser will always be an abuser even if it's something that cost them nothing they will still cheat since part of their nature that they don't want to change.

what surprises me is that, even after seeing the high level of technical knowledge how in this community yet they just want to try themselves to see what will be the outcome.

🍕 Happy Bitcoin Pizza Day 🍕

The Story: Imagine a world where Bitcoin isn’t just a digital asset but a rare delicacy, scattered across the vast landscapes of the internet. As a master chef and a savvy crypto-trader, I’ve combined these two passions into a dish that tells a tale of adventure and prosperity.

The Inspiration: My creation is no ordinary pizza; it’s a 🔴⚪ PokeBall-themed masterpiece with a twist. At the center lies the iconic Bitcoin symbol, representing the treasure we all seek in the cryptocurrency realm. This design symbolizes the thrill of the hunt, the desire to "Gotta Catch ’Em All!" or accumulate as much Bitcoin as possible.

The Making
Step 1:

Step 2:

Step 3:

Step 4:

Hello everyone ...

I finally decided to participate again in this contest after last year I also participated.
This is my pizza creation

I agree that it wasn't generated because the bottom looks burned. AI wouldn't make such mistakes

If you like it this way that's fine, but I don't understand what you're trying to say by comparing a real pizza to a fake image and saying it's better? Better than nothing?
IMO not making any pizza, or making an ugly one is much better than generating an image.

Happy Bitcoin Pizza Day 2024

I arrived at the eleven hour and made the pizza.
