Me with my HD598s with a modmic and Bluetooth DAC zip tied to the headband:

When can I buy the toothpaste?

Yikes lol

Yakuza 0 hands down. Some of the side stories had me in stitches.

Eat more is usually the correct advice there. If you’re used to eating at a low maintenance intake it can be very difficult to actually get used to eating a surplus of calories, so you end up feeling full and eating way less than you think. Count them calories.

I’ve had success with drinking calories (big thousand calorie shakes) and spreading out meals/snacks every 2 hours.

WebP is magic.

It already doesn’t if you take the time to use tools like LORAS, Controlnet, and Inpainting to guide the output.

I’m all for wearing masks when needed but that last point is dumb. Facial expressions are a huge part of human communication.

“Oracle” sounds like they were trying to be as dystopian cyberpunk as possible when naming their company.

I have three monitors and two of them are ultrawide with one turned vertical. Great for playlists, documents, and layers.

AI is about at creative as Adobe Photoshop is, or a pencil for that matter. A human operating it (no, not txt2img prompting) is where the creativity comes from.

I mean… That’s what the culture was at the time. No need to name call over it. It is well documented and any attempt to obfuscate it is revisionism.

Our discussion is prompting me to look more into the history here, though. Your comment on modern generals’ statements is intriguing. That lead me to learn about Soviet entry into the war, defeating Japan in Manchuria, which may have promoted talk of surrender among Japanese leadership.

I’ll certainly keep researching and I’m open to changing my view. Feel free to present me with some material to consider rather than calling me racist.

Ants is a pretty apt comparison to Japanese culture at the time. All expected to become soldiers and die for the hive. Seriously, shit was crazy. They were not going to surrender otherwise.

Firebombings were daily killing more than the bombs did as well.

Me, I’ll benefit the most. I’ve been using a locally running instance of the free and open source AI software Stable Diffusion to generate artwork for my D&D campaigns and they’ve never looked more beautiful!
