People post made with to and get thousands of followers then thousands of supporters on . When I post my all I get is either hate or crickets. I dropped using Ai Art Generator experiments because of all the hate I'm getting and my Ai generated artworks were all based on my own 3D renderings and using my own database.

@keremgo where did you post your aiart and where's that hate? Anyway, trolls are eternal and so is blind, unwarranted hatred...

@branch300bpm@vivaldi.net avatar

@keremgo time to grow thicker skin then. ;) Better yet, get off mainstream social media because it's full of clueless idiots, and sometimes directed by clueless idiots too. AI pic generators are just a tool and not using them because some doorstop told you so seems wrong.

@branch300bpm@vivaldi.net avatar

@keremgo It's a matter of time when ai generators get sufficiently good and efficient. 3D graphics software used to be the same - slow, inefficient, requiring extreme (for the times) hardware power. As for flexibility, I found it (Stable Diffusion) good as a part of toolchain, not complete tool, but yeah, if you're used to 3D modelling then it's not going to cut it anyway, even if you use ControlNet.

We used to have apps that didn't require much more than working machine to run it on. Nowadays we need also internet, modern OS, separate in-app account and also we have to watch ads inside the app. If this isn't absurd then I don't know what it is.

Even didn't escape the UI enshittification trend with huge UI elements and large empty spaces between them. At least they gave option to bring the old UI back.

Looks like 's vRack didn't sell, so they're giving it for free now. Actually, they're forcing it - you get it no matter if you want it or not...

By now it's probably mostly forgotten fact, but if you're in for some 16-color 32x32 .ICO nostalgia, the Moricons.dll is still available even in Windows 10 (not sure about 11). Look for it at %SystemRoot%\System32\moricons.dll.

EDIT: @SkySorcerer confirmed it's present also on Win11

Feels weird to run for the first time on my RTX 4070 just now, several months after I bought that GPU. CPU limits it to 70FPS but at least finally I can run it on "Crazy" (highest) preset on 2560x1440 res and it's not a stopmotion movie like it used to be on GTX 1660TI (and 1920x1080 res). And it looks just spectacular, too...

Seriously, who thought using just password to login and allowing just one session to be active is a good idea?
All it takes is reconfiguration of Wifi adapter to get you locked out of your router config webpage for who-knows-how-long (or force you to reboot it).

You know what would be cool? Having private notes on profiles. That way when I block someone, a year from now on I could quickly recall why I blocked someone.

What computer will still be able to run in 100 years? I mean, if the chip factories stopped churnin out chips and we had to get by with the current stock, is there any limiting factor?

sort [..] | uniq -> sort -u [..]
find . [..] | xargs [..] | grep [..] -> grep -r [..]
grep [..] | wc -l -> grep -c

The list goes on and on...

In other words, stop gaining knowledge from and , use manuals instead - because those contain a lot of useful info that will make your scripts more performant.

This is your friendly reminder that I make and sell delightful miniature retrocomputers like TRS-80s, Osborne Ones, and the occasional big friends like Connection Machines and Crays.
I'm a retired nerd who's living the dream. Well, if your dream is working in your garage on tiny art machines. 😺 ⚙️

Ciekawym skutkiem ubocznym jest to, że drastycznie spadł ruch samochodowy do i z , a przynajmniej od północnowschodniej strony. Mimo że jest zwężenie z trzech do jednego pasa z jednej strony Sobieskiego i zablokowany pas z drugiej, to do pracy dojechałem tak samo "wolno" jak w normalny dzień roboczy, za to wracałem już jak w ferie czy inne wakacje (tj. szybko).

Można więc powiedzieć, że dzięki chimskiemu gackowi i home office, strajk rolników przyniósł skutki odwrotne do zamierzonych bo ci co mogli to się wycwanili i po prostu pracowali z domu.
