Yeah, I have to look away for shots and hate having blood drawn but if I get a nasty scrape with blood gushing out - meh, no problems at all looking and poking.

Huh? Not sure if I'm misunderstanding but I'm on Arch and I've been running my 6750XT with SD since like February. Got SDXL running a few months ago and have played with oobabooga a bit. Also compiled whisper.cpp with HIPbla

I remember buying a few BTC at around the $20 mark, think I sold around $100. Seemed like a nerd's fever dream at that time :) I even got my CPU mining in a pool back before the GPU kernels were around and the ASICs came out. Crazy tim

Looking forward to your launch, I found cushystudio awhile back (maybe from HN?) and cannibalized some of the type generation code to make my own API wrapper for personal uses. Thanks! I barely got it working in that early alpha but it was

That's fair, and it's also exactly one of the issues discussed in this thread. Namely, that refuting "misinformation" is an order of magnitude harder than spreading it. I can tell we have deep disagreements, and it would

Very true, IMO one of the reasons why the internet is so toxic is because humans aren't actually interacting directly with each other - we just fire off our thoughts into the ether from behind our screens. I'd think we're not
