My approach to generating a music video was to generate scenes using DALL-E 3, and then animate those using Stable Video Diffusion (SVD). SVD doesn't have well-controllable motion and is utterly blown out of the water by Sora, but it&#

On that theme, I asked Suno to sing a rap but "remove all the vowels", and it's hilarious how well it attempts to sing the silly result: https://app.suno.ai/song/30f8223e-0d0b-4cac-8b3f-5d8f0f743e2... Th

By contrast, ZFS has "slop space" to avoid this very problem (wedging the filesystem by running out of space during a large operation). By default it reserves 3.2% of your volume's space for this, up to 128GB. So by adjusting

Yup, I bought a dedicated server because I needed a CPU with AVX2 and VT-x, and it went poof some days later. They didn't even do me the courtesy of emailing me to tell me about it, I had to ask support: > > When I try to log in
