The one complaint I have with the days getting longer is as the sun's trajectory shifts as we move into summer, it's now perfectly angled to blast directly into my eye for a solid hour or so in the mid-afternoon
Samu /人◕ ‿‿ ◕人\
oh noo there's too much sun on my face
Samu /人◕ ‿‿ ◕人\
i'm probably being too much of a hater but this is how you sound rn!!
Samu /人◕ ‿‿ ◕人\
it's a nice day here i'm trying to maximize sunlight exposure while it lasts wish i got out earlier had a really nice cortado just now i feel the caffeine coursing around my system
>>1081420 >>1081421 I think you are being a little excessive Or misunderstanding me It's not about having sun on my face, it's about the sun blasting right into my eye to the point where I can't see anything because it's like having a flashlight beam pointed right at it I like being in a sun-lit room, it's just these factors have conspired to, again, have the sun perfectly situated to itself be beaming directly into one of my eyes

Samu /人◕ ‿‿ ◕人\

Anno
Since I don't drive, I'm normally not bothered by the sun when I'm outside Pretty easy to keep the sun out of your eyes just by adjusting where you're walking or looking Or, well, it also doesn't bother me much unless the sun itself is directly in my vision
Samu /人◕ ‿‿ ◕人\

>>1081497 Most likely both. My supervisor who wants to fuck me probably put me up for a promotion because she wants to fuck me, but part of why she wants to fuck me is because I'm a good clinician. Another part is because I'm a bad employee and she doesn't want me to work for her anymore but I'm so good at my job that she wants to keep me around.
i was bicycling with my usual resting bicycle face and accidentally gave two guys in a car a dirty look and they pulled up beside me and started asking 'what was that look for?' i didn't really understand what they were saying though also they didn't really like line up the window with me face to face very well so in a couple seconds they just sped off lol i gotta be careful with the ole facial expressions
Anno
I've taken to staring people in cars who've gone past where they're supposed to stop before crosswalks and have sat their car in the actual crosswalk dead in the eyes as I go past them It actually got one guy the other day to roll down his window to shout at me what's my problem Although that's definitely more than just resting bitch face since I was deliberately trying to point out this guy was being a dick

I think this one's like, real long, so I won't be able to finish it in one go But I've heard good things, or at least I've heard about it and seen the characters a lot
S C
the text is a bit misaligned, like the letters in words kinda go into each other I dunno if that's an issue with wine, or if it's meant to be like that, or just a limitation of the translation using the same text rendering code for roman letters instead of japanese characters Hopefully it doesn't significanlty impact the reading experience
It IS a little bit annoying, but it seems to follow a pattern, as in there are a set of letters that have the issue, and I doubt it's actually going to make it hard to tell which word it is Does make reading it a LITTLE more cumbersome, but not severely
S C
Actually, it might be a font issue I just checked a youtube let's read of it, and the issue isn't there
Maybe I just gotta go through the steps of getting lutris to run it properly, that usually fixes font-based issues
oh well, I can't figure it out, and it's still readable, so I will simply live with it lmao to some degree, a little bit of jank feels like it's part of the VN experience

I watched a video on it, which is why I'm even reading this right now, and it explained "denpa" to be a term mostly to do with social outcasts or similar, but I actually thought it was closer to a term referring to like, people going joker mode due to electromagnetic radiation, or more accurately, the people who think that's a real thing, conspiracy nuts and the like The 5g crowd and stuff, you know?

also fortnite and apex this game is way too stimulating jesus
the game has a lot going on plus a big variety in lighting styles plus reflective surfaces and accurate lighting from muzzle flash so if you are in a dark area and unload a mag it's already like RAVE MODE plus somrtimes the walls blow open and dudes turn into shiny coins

I'm starting to get the hang of the novelai machine A lot of it is just trial and error, as well as milling through a bunch of generations until you see a decent one that's close to what you want, then you just set the seed to that one and tinker with the settings and the prompt, slightly each time
This one, I imagine I can fix the hair by just adding () around the hair color
S C
naw, can't get it to look right that easy Still, it's not really that bad
S C
really the main issue with it is that the most relevant use case for it for me would be to churn out Cute Girls who don't get a lot of fanart, and that just happens to be the one most important factor in how well it does at it, or if it even really can It doesn't know who Kuma is, for example
S C
I mean, it's probably also optimized for perfectly square images, but that hasn't been a significant issue yet, at least
Also a pro tip if you're trying to generate a larger than default image, but also want to mill through a bunch, resulting in the damn thing telling you "not enough ram for that, buddy" Increasing batch size seems to tell it to run more images in parallel, or at least allocate memory to them all in some capacity But if you instead just pump the number of batches, it works just fine, provided you have the ram to at least make one image of your desired resolution
It's also perfectly fine to just use the hires fix option, which basically just generates the image at a lower res first, and then upscales it In and of itself, this isn't really a time save or anything like that, but the resolution you generate at is an important variable, you get completely different images even with the same ratio if the actual numbers are different Basically, mill through and tinker with the settings on a lower res that's still at least the ratio you ultimately want, and when you're satisfied, just copy the seed of the image, and set the hires fix to multiply with the appropriate amount to get your Big Image I'm sure if you really push it by trying to upscale a damn postage stamp to a wallpaper, you're gonna get bodied, but at least in the 2-3x range, it works surprisingly well

>>1081786 Getting a bell turned out to be a bit of a struggle, though likely just because I don't know the particular tag combination for a collar with a bell on it This was made with fairly few steps in the generation process, so there's a few uh, issues, but I'm sure if I tinkered with it I could iron out those The hands in particular
>>1081787 What kind of sensor do you have? I'm interested in how/what it senses.
S C
>>1081789 This one turned out better, primarily due to not having the hands in frame It's still got a handful of issues, but overall I think it's pretty good It generally does a bit better when given more tags to work with, which incidentally it can uh... sorta provide itself using deepdanbooru (which is integrated) Gimme a sec here
S C
>>1081793 To some degree, I improved it, but overall it's worse There's no convenient tag for having her arms down like that, and the tag generation kinda made her arms outright disappear I tried just having her hold them behind her back, but that just resulted in arms that ended in stumps at the elbow
I can't even get the prompt I used originally back I think

Is there even an actual reason in lore for there not to be female space marines, or is it just the fanbase going "nuh the recruitment process is too hard for women "? Cause I've at past never come across anything that would exclude women outright. Other than like, ideological reasons on the imperium's end, but I don't get the vibe that they're at liberty to hold on to such beliefs

Granted I'm not big into Warhammer, I just listen to lore videos and stuff now and then cause the setting is neat
Rei !p8eYCadcMo
>>1081840 Iirc there is one but I don't remember it off the top of my head. Also another thing about people who want female space marines Is that They think they'll just look like women in space marine armor. Female space marines would look just like male space marines. They're so different from regular humans. Oh Uh Maybe the reason has to do with geneseed

Rei !p8eYCadcMo
>>1081861 That sounds like something that people in universe believe is true but actually isn't. But not in the sense that the power of belief makes things real like certain other things. At the very least, the emperor is definitely not explicitly saying anything to anyone, least of all revising his previous policies.
Rei !p8eYCadcMo
And also He considered space marines to not be human and as a sort of servile race to protect humanity. They are heavily modified humans that no one should want to be.
Rei !p8eYCadcMo
I don't quite understand the want people have for female space marines beyond like "oh there aren't any, thats not fair" Female space marines would have no female secondary sex characteristics. They'd be bald and have deep voices due to steroids.

I don't care enough to throw a bit tantrum in the store or to try and debate the on it or snitch to management. But it's pretty bullshit they're trying to close up the supermarket at 9:50. sign says you close at ten, you should be open until 10 I get it you want to go home on time. But still... >>1081979 yeah. see. it's bullshit.

>>1081978 The campus convenience store was completely shut down when I got to it at 5:50 yesterday even though it closes at six. So I feel you on that.
I think I'm not gonna finish subahibi after all It started out neat and now I'm just bored

I am in awe at how library of letearneu has rocked the NL community to the degree Fauna's admitted to being casino-pilled on his streams NL and his number one clipper are simply too powerful
damn these dolmas are good it's just like rice wrapped in grape leaves and a ton of oil i guess they've put some bits of onion and mint and stuff in there too

>>1082000 I've been thinking I want some way of organizing all my computer peripherals too There's a bunch of shit here that's kind of all over the place Having it more organized would be nice
Samu /人◕ ‿‿ ◕人\
yeah reducing clutter in the workspace is key i think
i have an underdesk wire shelf that i've clamped to the standing desk for that purpose but my living area situation is still a mess
>>1082007 I'm unhappy about it. Cause I was gonna stream a game this week.
Samu /人◕ ‿‿ ◕人\
oh no
Mahou Shoujo Marsh-chan
do you reckon saying "cunt" in my osrs youtube videos gets me shadowbanned from the algorithm?
Mahou Shoujo Marsh-chan
I think that is unfairly prejudicial to Australians.
Anno
Don't you think that word is more importantly unfairly prejudicial to women
Mahou Shoujo Marsh-chan
No. I don't think that.
Anno
Well then take it up with YouTube support! I'm sure they have a good reason for it being so harshly weighted in the algorithm
Mahou Shoujo Marsh-chan
I'm sure they think they have a good reason.
Anno
I dunno man, I think advertisers leaving in flocks because people are free to use that word and the ads are shown on videos with titles using it, is a pretty good reason
i want to build a new internet where ads are forbidden sites injecting third party code via slow script tags a distant memory
Anno
>>1082010 idk maybe cunt iirc used to get you demonitized not that you care about that
Samu /人◕ ‿‿ ◕人\
wow USDC lost its peg for a lil bit due to the whole Silicon Valley Bank situation i wonder if it will stabikize or if there's some money irrevocably lost there
Nezi
All I know is it will be interesting to see if companies with cash reserves in SVB lose serious amounts and are hurt by this. Who knows how much they can get back after regulators are done selling assets.
Samu /人◕ ‿‿ ◕人\
it's just hilarious how bad their executives handled the PR you'd think with billions under management and having been around for over a decade they would have had the wisdom not to write "we'll be fine as long as everyone doesn't try to withdraw at the same time"
Nezi
Jim Cramer also recommending to buy $SIVB less than a month ago, also hilarious.
gonna stock up on $CODP to protect my family jewels

>>1082010 my friend who I visited last night plays rs3 with his mum I thought that was neat
Nezi
covid-23 less gooooo maybe i'll finally catch it and die idk how I haven't gotten covid yet tbh no symptoms or very lucky, probably the latter
Samu /人◕ ‿‿ ◕人\
i finally caught it last month it was a very mild congestion
then it went away thanks moderna
now i have a sore throat and idk why maybe its back? i felt pretty shit all week is this round 2 i cant tell i should take another test supposed to travel next week too
Anno
clocked off and walk out of staff room instantly confronted by "do you have more of x out back" got away and I'm planning my exit route
Anno
>>1082041 you can get a sore throat from a lot of things what are the rurus in maple syrup land do you still need to quarantine?
Samu /人◕ ‿‿ ◕人\
that customer is gonna write your boss a bad yelp review oh no!!
Anno
she should stop being a little bitch and let her kids have sugar
Anno
cause she wanted no sugar chocolate milks ruins a choccy milk imo
Samu /人◕ ‿‿ ◕人\
>>1082043 i think the quarantine rules are long gone
Samu /人◕ ‿‿ ◕人\
this shit's just endemic now there may be specific tests required if you are crossing to china but otherwise i think it's a free for all
Anno
oh well go spread the virus germs deserve to be free!
Samu /人◕ ‿‿ ◕人\
i might have to cancel the whole dang trip tbh depending on how i feel tomorrow
>>1082053 no I mean your sick problem will be right surely they're done price gauging those at home tests and you can pick one up cheap
Anno
>>1082057 well osrs is probably too hardcore for anyone gen x
Samu /人◕ ‿‿ ◕人\
im so sick n twisted

>On a mid-January night, some 80 agents of the Federal Deposit Insurance Corp. pull into Vancouver, Wash. Their rental cars are generic, their arrival times staggered. One by one, agents check into a hotel, each quietly offering a pseudonym to the guy at the desk.
> >They're here to take over the Bank of Clark County, which the FDIC has decided is insolvent. It's the agency's job to insure American bank deposits and to step in when a bank fails. The FDIC tries to keep the planning for its operations top secret, to avoid sparking a panicked run on the bank.
article from 2009 damn thats some spy shit

>"She said within the next 10 minutes there will be 80 FDIC employees coming into the bank. And I looked out there, and it was dark so I couldn't really see," Zalk says. "Then all these people, mostly in suits and professional clothing with attorney-type briefcases, start entering the bank, just flooding into the bank." mister bankerso
>>1082067 ive seen that channel i think that guy recently pivoted to AI generated thumbnails before that it was just clipart
Anno
makes sense donut
Anno
everybody wants to rule the world
Anno
>>1082064 A guy at my work would take a box whenever he visited the drugstore Ended up with like six boxes of four or five tests each I can understand like maybe stockpiling two boxes for -in case of a need to test daily for a while But after a certain point it feels ridiculous
Samu /人◕ ‿‿ ◕人\
just spam that A button
Samu /人◕ ‿‿ ◕人\
hopefully they distributed them to family and didnt just hoard i guess
Anno
Guy lives alone, so nope, no one to distribute them amongst
It turns out the sampling method you use when generating anime girls is very important, as well Euler Ancestral, for example, is like, SUPER varied depending on the amount of steps, even within the same seed and prompt and everything Regular Euler is less varied, but the step amount makes it varied in like, detail for lack of a better word And there's a lot more of these things
S C
Ancestral seems, based on a very small sample size, a little bit better at hands, too But that might just be variance
S C
A lesser enjoyer of cute anime girls might say the jacket is a mistake there, but I actually kinda am into the design it sorta fucked itself into It's obviously not functional as drawn, but having two zippers for the lower and upper half sorta offset like that is kinda cool honestly
Though, an obvious issue is you can't tell it to do something there isn't a way to tag yourself into

>>1082093 Oh I never played with that setting is that NovelAI?
S C
yeah running through the stable diffusion webui the CFG scale seems to ideally be between 8 and 12, though you CAN get some good results outside that boundary Lower can get kinda crazy, but above is uh, it turns out really bad a lot of the time Like this is it at 20 >>1082094 this one's at 8
It kinda gets like, oversaturated and fucked up But you CAN get some good results as long as you don't go too high or too low
S C
really the lower end is less of a problem because the quality turns shitty, and more because the setting controls how closely it sticks to the prompt So higher ones end up with increasingly literal interpretations of your prompt, while lower... I mean This one's at 1, which is obviously a real edge case, but still It kinda just goes crazy
S C
both it and the step count are good to mess around with a little bit once you've found a prompt and seed combo that spat out something like what you wanted though, and you just sorta get a feel for which one to change Though mostly I end up leaving the CFG around 8 or 10, and I just mill through seeds like 5-10 at a time at a low step count until I find something decent
Samu /人◕ ‿‿ ◕人\
Super crunchy
S C
it does also, technically, support like, using one image as a template, but that one's real finnicky and I haven't been able to get any particularly good results, and also I don't really know how to use it properly
Samu /人◕ ‿‿ ◕人\
It takes the image adds a bunch of noise to make it all fuzzy and then tries to redraw using the prompt Depending on how much noise you use you can even uss stick figures to design a pose
S C
Yeah, basically I'm just not sure how to use it properly, that's all But I imagine once I put some time into it, I could generate images a lot closer to what I want
It's nice for generating like, wallpapers and the like though My GPU isn't powerful enough to actually do anything beyond 1920x1080 or the reverse, but that's still actually fairly decent
Samu /人◕ ‿‿ ◕人\
Oh you're using the weights nice
S C
huh? I just followed a guide for setting up the leaked novelai model for personal use >>1082108 I don't know the difference between weights and model
Samu /人◕ ‿‿ ◕人\
The leaked weights ya
Samu /人◕ ‿‿ ◕人\
model is made up of weight values same ting
S C
ah, fair enough then yeah I guess I am
I am kinda surprised at which characters it does and doesn't know, though I mean I'm sure you can like, brute force your way into whatever if you put in the time to fully tag it in detail, but for some characters it's like "sakura kyouko? yeah I know who she is, here she is"
Samu /人◕ ‿‿ ◕人\
I wonder how much power it takes to fine-tune the model
S C
honestly also impressive how well it handles arbitrary resolutions I'd have imagined it wouldn't be very good at it, but so far the only way I've seen resolution affect the quality of an output is just like Bigger resolution, better quality
