I use Apple Shortcuts + VPN + seed box and the shortcut grabs the magnet link and hits my torrent boxes API. I shared the Shortcut with my wife and it has made pirating so dang convenient and easy we’ve filled up 20TB of space, whoops, time

If Kerbal Space Program has taught me anything, it’s that getting to the moon isn’t that difficult with enough rocket fuel. Stopping at the moon without blowing up and leaving a small crater, now that’s difficult.

That’s absolutely ridiculous, everyone knows the moon is just part of the giant crystalline structure that keeps the firmament from pouring through and flooding the earth again!

I mean there’s a headshot of Martin Fowler on the page and… he looks a lot like the generated pictures. If his headshot was in there I wouldn’t have thought it was out of the ordinary.

During the pandemic I bought a $500 mattress from Amazon but didn’t like it. So they just gave it to me for free and refunded my purchase. So now I’m sleeping on a free mattress that I don’t really like but it was free.

I mean, Elon Musk just said in his interview yesterday that he was friends with Larry Page until he realized Larry Page had zero concerns about ethics and AI safety and called Musk a “speciesist”. I’d say if that’s the attitude of the found

Oh yeah CPS came and determined we weren’t neglecting our children when some busybody called on us. It was annoying. Then she lost her job and had to move away, which I definitely didn’t feel any sense of schadenfreude from. We ended up buy

The MRI didn’t feel like anything. It wasn’t until the neurologist showed me images of my brain with my eyeballs right there in the front that I felt like I was going to have a panic attack. I have no idea how regular people just laugh off

How? My eight year old daughter gets to roam free and has seven or eight different kids she plays with on a weekly basis. A few of them daily. We’re not worried about her getting carried off because the area is super safe. We lived in the c

I've probably spent at least an hour a day working in Stable Diffusion and Automatic1111 since January or so. At this point I'd call it my hobby, as instead of playing video games I'm plowing time into this. And I'm defi

Ah I see, you're right 40 minutes sounds about right for that amount of training. Curious why the decision to train 40 images? I've used 15 for two separate subjects in Dreambooth with excellent results. I'm no expert, experi

He mentions the Colab for Dreambooth, that only takes ten minutes or so to train using an A100 (the premium GPU) and you can have it turn off after it finishes, and saves to Google Drive. Super easy.

What I’m saying is if you just go to the Reddit.com/r/all page, which if you’ve curated to avoid all the negative subreddits, you’ll now get /r/combatfootage and people fighting included in this feed. I’d like to be able

I just check out r/all sometimes and it’s showing up at least a few times a week on there. I’m not actively going to those subreddits. I’m finding myself going there less and less as it’s repulsive. Interestingly Twitter seems to have

It's when I go to /r/all to see what the broader Reddit is up to. Basically every day there's war footage (at least marked nsfw), the other Reddit front page was featuring a video of a Ukrainian soldier being beheaded by

If img2img works in Midjourney the same way it does in Stable Diffusion, probably not. Img2img doesn’t put “guard rails” to keep everything where you intend it to be and will bleed over and make changes to the image. Civitai.com has some re

I spent several thousand dollars on a mobile game like this when I was making $12 an hour. I absolutely regret the time I spent and the money I wasted on it. I got fired from another job because I wasted all my time playing the game. Ultima
