Yup. You still have to do some manual work if you want to create something like a comic and make sure each panel is internally consistent with the world. Heck, even OpenAI’s own cookbook demonstration of the dog comic was a complete mess. I

Always happy to see more HOMM. I know the series has moved on but if I could have a once and future king of sequels to this game, it would keep the charming pixel art style of Heroes of Might and Magic II while using the gameplay mechanics

Nice job. Desperately needs an instant-down (perhaps the Enter key) - even with the spacebar to speed things up it felt excruciatingly slow.

Local text-to-vid such as LTX Video 2.3 or even older WAN could easily handle this then combine with something like SeedVR2 to upscale. https://github.com/Lightricks/ComfyUI-LTXVideo

Every continuous shot lasts no more than five to ten seconds. It's not a "give-away" as such, but it's certainly a tell. r/aivideo is chockful of this crap.

Yeah, even the latest version, Marble 1.1 which this repo uses can make a royal mess of things, especially outdoor environments.

This is more like a Claude-based skill set that orchestrates a bunch of different, separate systems. The closest equivalent to Trellis would probably be its usage of Huyuan-3D, which it uses to create some of the 3D object models. From what

I was literally just about to say this. It’s similar to what a lot of really good teachers do: students use them as a “rubber duck,” and then they respond as an almost Socratic guide. I've actually used that approach during my years te

Smaller models might not make the best agentic coding assistants, but I have a 128GB RAM headless machine serving llama.cpp with a number of local models that handles various tasks on a daily basis and works great. - Qwen3-VL:30b > A fil

Starting off as a banker is probably the easiest way to "cheat". :)

It's been great for me. I have a secondary PC that's been running Windows 10 LTSC IoT for 5 years now. I’m still getting security updates but nothing else (that's a feature to me). The only time I had an issue was when a DAW

CON files were great. One of the first enemies I made as a kid was a "basilisk"-type creature that if you looked at, there was a RNG chance it would wackplayer If you know, you know.

Neat. The website looks the same (in a good way) from when I remember it over a decade ago - are you the creator of the original java port from back then? https://web.archive.org/web/20140210122645/http:/&#x2F

Yeah. One possibility is you might want to look into possibly developing this concept as a plug-in for something like Aseprite [1]. That's the one I personally use when doing sprite work and it exports a spritesheet and accompanying JS

I’ll have to give it a look. The last BFL Krea collab was released last summer and, unfortunately, scored very poorly in my Gen AI Showdown comparison - just 2 out of 15. For reference, even the stock Flux model (Flux.1 dev) scored 4 out of

Nice job. But could use some clarification: > The tool is free, but you'll have to BYOK. I'm a bit confused by this statement considering on the repo it also says it has to communicate with a 3rd party, nova3d.xyz API. So is

It’s similar to what tools like Automatic1111 and ComfyUI do which embed the workflow and pipeline as EXIF so the image can be recreated later. The biggest issue I see with this is that, depending on the graphics editor, export formats, etc

Nice! I'll have to check out building blocks, since Syntorial (which they also make) is fantastic for teaching you how to almost intuitively get a feel for manipulating ADSR, envelopes, oscillators, etc. to approximate a given sound.

There are actually a few capable VL models out there that can run on even modest hardware. If you want to keep things simple and process everything locally, I’d recommend something like Qwen3 VL [1]. It’s not the fastest model, but you can

That's exactly what this is - relying on sheer nostalgia-porn to overcome the fact that this is a low-effort, vibe-coded mess. Hey remember pogs? Remember double bubble? Remember trapper keeper? To make up for it, here's an actual

Ouch. I wonder if this is related to when Plex tried to unify development of their mobile app in late 2025 so they’d have a single shared codebase for both Android and iOS? I’ve heard from a lot of people who accidentally upgraded to the la

For a time and I have no idea if this is still true Plex had a serious advantage in the sheer range of client platforms it supported (iOS, Android, smart TVs, Roku, etc.)

There are already millions of short stories on fanfic community sites like Wattpad, and that was before AI gave people a way to mass-commoditize content. So that should answer your question.

Yeah I'd agree that I think AI can at least work provided you manage the context properly, multiple top-level files establishing consistent world state, all that jazz. KoboldAI and SillyTavern both do a pretty good job of maintaining i
