lime!

not necessarily. image generation models work on a more fine-grained scale than that. they can seamlessly combine related concepts, like “photograph”+“person”+“small”+“pose” and generate plausible material due to the fact that all of those concepts have features in common.

you can also use small add-on models trained on very little data (tens to hundreds of images, as compared to millions to billions for a full model) to “steer” the output of a model towards a particular style.

you can make even a fully legal model output illegal data.

all that being said, the base dataset that most of the stable diffusion family of models started out with in 2021 is medical in nature so there could very well be bad shit in there. it’s like 12 billion images so it’s hard to check, and even back with stable diffusion 1.0 there was less than a single bit of data in the final model per image in the data.

my family used to run a business that imported products from american companies specialising in things like hand loading (basically making your own ammunition). just before we got out of the business, around 15 years or so, one of the bigger actors (starts with an H, guy named steve runs it), they introduced a zombie-themed line of products, including ammunition cases, fake blood spattered bandoliers, and targets.

just… human targets. with zombie print on them. for civilian use.

to say that they just did this in order to be able shoot people without consequence might be judging too harshly… if we hadn’t met steve.

or “arson”!

dlss isn’t frame gen, it’s supersampling

all ar glasses need cameras. that’s how they figure out where in the r to put the a.

it’s the alphabet the BC first nations use. it uses similar characters but not with ipa pronunciations.

are you thinking because of the use of IPA characters? because those have defined sounds only within the IPA.

i don’t know if you’re being ironic but that does make me sad to hear. took me like 25 minutes and i still messed it up, but i had fun writing it all out and i hoped others would find it fun to. that my writing is apparently that soulless is disheartening.

fwiw i would never post llm output unmarked. i don’t think people deserve that.

FUCK

i see what you’re up to here. you’ve created your whole post without words that start with that particular letter. i do disagree that it’s hard to express yourself without it however; it’s perfectly possible, i’d say simple, actually, to completely erase the letter from your vocabulary. i’m able to get by perfectly well without a sole use of it, all with perfect legibility. yes, i’d go as far as to say that it’s probably close to the bottom of the list of letters when if ordered by value. get rid of it, i say. to optimize the alphabet is to get our speech closer to the speed of thought. after that, we can will start to chip at the big boys; your time has come, S!

i do want the icons, yeah.

vpn is on the right, yeah. but this is with just one sim:

with two i get another signal strength and wifi calling symbol. it’s already collapsing them when not on the quick setting screen, which is very frustrating.

i mean the bezels together are less than 1cm. and the notch takes space from notifications, with two sim cards and a vpn active that shit overflows instantly anyway.

i think they mean “under” as in “behind”.

agree, i just wish they kept a model like the Z* Compact around.

aw man, this is the first i’m hearing about discontinuation. apparently it’s because people want larger phones?!

i have a 5 IV and it is by far the largest phone i’ve ever owned… i wish it was like an inch smaller. but it was the only model i could find that doesn’t have a non-rectangular screen. these bloody camera cutouts are everywhere and i never even use the front camera.

was gonna say, this seems like the best outcome for this particular trial. there was potential for fair use to be compromised, and for piracy to be legal if you’re a large corporation. instead, they upheld that you can do what you want with things you have paid for.

oh i’ve never seen the 4kids dub at all, i’m not american.

i only ever saw that one arc as well, what has apparently later been dubbed “season zero” because there wasn’t any card games in it. that was something they apparently came up with on the fly and it just stuck around. the writers didn’t know anything about tcgs so the rules make no sense.

that first season is wild though, with the protagonist just challenging bad people to random games of chance with gruesome outcomes like “because you are greedy, i challenge you to stab through this wad of cash lying on top of your hand. you get to keep every dollar you pick up but if you’re too greedy you’ll nail your hand to the table”

…oh the truck bed
