This is impressive how great you can generate pictures with IA, to make a 4 pannel comic in minutes.
I really need to get around to playing with Midjourney and ChatGPT.
Check out Stable Diffusion and the llama model family. You can run those offline on your local hardware and wont have to worry about sharing private details with some cloud service that openly says they will look at your discussions and data and use it for training.
That sounds awesome! What kinda hardware would we need for that? Our machines are a 9900k/3070ti and a 12600k/3070; I would assume they should suffice?
Yes, that should work. Check out stable-diffusion-webui (automatic1111) and text-generation-webui (oobabooga). And grab the models from civitai (stable diffusion) and huggingface (llms like llama, vicuna, gpt-j, wizard, etc.).
I don’t know any of those words and I will look them up shortly! Hahaha thank you!
I’m curious, how can you tell that it’s AI? The hands do look a bit off in some of the panels but nothing else is standing out to me.
The fact that each panel is a different style and features and different character is a giveaway. Why would someone do that if they were drawing it themselves?
The secret is not having any money to buy stuff in the first place
Man I got lucky with 3d printing and self hosting. As long as I am not trying to buy new hardware and upgrade every month the cost of filament and time is small enough to not impact my family.
That and home construction projects, strangely enough no one bats and eye at a $250 chainsaw, but I go and spend $80 on a used GPU and people flip the fuck out about being irresponsible.
Tools are cool AF and if you use them on a project or two its easy to justify to other people. Yes i need a table saw, yes I need a mitre saw, yes I need a router, clearly I need this full set of battery tools…
How do you get people to not bat an eye at the chainsaw?
I’m still biding my time after the m18 hackzall until I’m allowed to go back to the tool store. Then I’ll be able to run around my backyard like a space marine with dangerous power tools, like the adult I am.
its been a crazy year for trees falling in my area. I had a neighbor who lost 5 trees in one storm, we lost 2 so far this year and had some big branches come down too.
Its $$$ for the chainsaw but it costs less than what we would have paid for the tree people to take care of it.
Too real. I wish I could stay interested in hobbies after I already got all the expensive stuff for them :(
Ah yes, the reminder that I probably have ADHD because I have a hobby cycle and boredom intolerance.
For god’s sake, this hits WAY too hard. Probably because that’s so we’ll drawn the expressions are so great
Ok what do we do to fix this? I was thinking of doing a YouTube channel just to force me to finish things.
Ugh this is me, I’ve wasted so much on hobbies over the years just to never come back to it
I haven’t been diagnosed with ADHD, so that means my picking up of electrical engineering, retro computer building, programming in z80 and 6502 ASM, 3d printing, CAD, AI, LLMs (locally run), python, rust, embedded programming for AVRs, RP2040 in C, rust, and ASM … Since the beginning of COVID is perfectly normal, and the dozen half finished projects I have scattered about are entirely reasonable…
Right? Right…?

Thanks, OP
Whoa, too close to home.
This cycle is why I really loved the idea shown in The Matrix where Neo is just given knowledge by having it uploaded directly to his brain from a computer.
Fuck yes, I want to download the ability to play guitar and do kung fu. Sign me the hell up!
painfully accurate. the pile of candle making supplies taunts me every time I walk past it. I’ll get to it one day, I swear…
