Their KSP2 design doc was too technical with not enough art? Did the publisher know which ip they were working on?

I’m not impressed with the LLMs. They do make great synonym generators.

Stable diffusion and other image diffusers are genuinely amazing. And I’m not talking about asking copilot to make Fortnite shrek. There are incredibly complex ways in which you can fine tune to tell it how to shape and refine the image. It has and is going to continue to revolutionize graphical art. And once the math shrinks down it’s going to be everywhere.

I think it’s mostly for prototyping your own programs, which I haven’t tried yet. It comes with a wifi ssid snooper, and a like greeting card voice recorder/replayer. It’s credit card size, half inch thick. The back half is a removable battery expansion. The stamp has a usb c for data/charging. There’s WiFi, infrared blaster, sd card slot, expansion ports for other sensors. It’s nifty for sure, maybe someday I’ll find a use for it too.

The stamp in the top right is the entire removable motherboard. I put my cardputer on a shelf when it got here and I haven’t gotten around to it yet. M5 stack is pretty cool, and I wish I understood it more.

Hey, I have one of those!

Oh it’s a real thing. The frame seemed older than the 80s

The leather link watch band is the most comfortable band I’ve ever used. Amazon still has them for 50$. half what I paid

I’m not reading anymore of this thread, but go move to the EU and request all the data those companies you mentioned have on you. You will see a truly staggering amount of your day to day info from some of them. Facebook and google are just advertising companies trying to get their thumbs in every pie they can convince enough people to buy into. Part of that is designing their products to require phoning home. The issue isn’t signing in. Signing in is just the trojan horse to make sure every bit of data they pull from you is tied to the right advertising account ID. They shouldn’t be allowed to continue to do that, even if they have enough money to lobby for its legality. Even if every single company on earth was freely doing it to the same degree people should still push for a change.

The business world is truly a slippery slope. Google made unethical digital advertising into a major market, and now even if they close shop somebody else will come fill the gap. The only way to put the power back in people’s hands is to regulate them out of existence but that will never happen if most people don’t even know it’s happening because you can’t even fucking complain about it on the internet without a hundred reply thread jfc

Not separated enough for me. I know all the big companies are bad, but I won’t touch google/fb hardware.

Looting API keys makes way more sense. They must have been stuck using GPT2 to write that incoherent statement.

If you want to make a pie from scratch…

I’m sure there’s plenty of people that make their living (or maybe barely scrape by) off digital art that are affected by this so I can understand some touchiness. I mean why pay $100 for an account avatar or other small commissions when you can generate it yourself in one second. But also, why pay a scribe to copy an entire book by hand when a printing press does it faster? The only difference in these statements is that hand scribe wasn’t a widespread profession 5 years ago.

To me an artist is someone who uses tools to realize their vision. As technology progresses so do the tools. ComfyUI is leagues better of a tool than something like DallE will ever be, but no the entirety of “AI Generated Art” is a ~sin~ and must be attacked. Oh, not the corporate zeitgeist heisters, but instead the users of the community driven software.

I really don’t understand this. All these search engine companies give millions of users a single button to create the most soulless art you’ve ever seen, but instead of caring about that they attack the tool that most enables the user to have control over their generation. You can argue that unlimited competition is bad for commission artists, but this attack is not “Pro Art”.

Using creative cloud isn’t a sin, but helping maintain Adobes industry stranglehold should be.

 

Hello, when I relaunch the app, my control center shows ringer volume instead of media volume. If I go home or swap apps control center shows media volume until I relaunch. When I close the app it’s back to media. Lmk if you need more info.

If I see it up I always wonder why I turned it up so loud, turn it down, then sleep through my alarm 😅 I already had to set up an automation to fix my ringer after my car mutes it. I’m glad my boss isn’t a hardass. Maybe iOS 18 will add a systemwide alarm volume

 

I haven’t figured out upscaling too well yet 😅 but this is a start. I use ComfyUI
