A vast majority of the public didn’t do this or know how to do this.

It failed because the PS2 was dominating at the time, and Sega didn’t know how to launch a console, even if they had a gun pointed at their head.

I love my network pork! Tastes like bacon!

No, the imagery was supposed to invoke the rave culture at the time. Lots of men, women, boys, and girls doing X, and the pills usually were white like that.

Bottom line is it FUCKING worked. The PS2 sold like toilet paper.

You really didn’t need the ads. PS2 absolutely dominated because they were the ones with the all of the huge publishers. Sega, Nintendo, and Microsoft couldn’t hold a candle to the sheer amount of great exclusives. It was only when Xbox 360 and later the Wii came out did the console wars start to shift.

Has anybody actually use this? The workflow seems complicated but promising, but I don’t see any examples of their results.

Heh, that third picture with the blue cat face. Funny, the other cat has the colors of the dog it wanted, but turned it into a cat.

That’s not an ad. That’s just some cosplayer showing off her muff.

Nerd blackface.

Like Fabio? Pretty much any depiction of a barbarian is some muscular dude wearing only a loincloth and his broadsword.

so, what’s Würstchen?

It’s open-sourced under an Apache 2.0 license. So, who the fuck cares where it came from? It’s a helluva lot more open-source than anything OpenAI or Midjourney is putting out.

Photoshop has been a thing for 25+ years, and we’re surprised at this? There are a few problems with this image that anybody with even halfway-decent scrutiny can pick up on, like the shadows next to the note, or the weird furniture thing on the left.

Different context, but still relevant.

A1111 for Stable Diffusion has a Dynamic Prompt plugin that uses a model to generate a prompt to put into SD. It’s a neat way to get SD to generate a bunch of different images, find some example prompts that are interesting, and then expand upon it.

All of the “a” samplers are ancestor samplers and will not converge on a final image. They will just keep on trying to “fix” the image with different variations. There’s kind of no point in testing them, especially since they almost always have non-ancestral counterparts that work more deterministically.

Also, why is DPM++ 3M not in the conclusions? It seems off to me that the latest version of DPM++ is somehow worse than DPM++ 2M. Also, Euler and DDIM, some of the oldest samplers ever, are rated quite high here, and that already has me questioning the results.

GPL and Artistic both needed a bunch of legal help to get them where they are.

Don’t roll your own cryptography and don’t do the same for software licenses.

Is it actually actively being developed? I tried to jump on board when I heard the drama, but it sounded like the Tenacity team was still trying to get their shit together.

Yeah, the format is that she repeats the second panel on the fourth panel, with more question marks and concern. This version is almost like explaining the joke here.
