It's sad that he died after only 6 weeks, but this is still a huge medical feat for everyone involved.

Every time I see this topic I have to check if TC still hasn't lost karma.

Strange.

No idea why I would expect it.

That's because most old forums had their ranks defined by the number of postings, and not with karma like here.

So, many people were encouraged to spam silly stuff all the time, simply to push their rank and online ePeen meter.

What are the best models out right now to run locally?

You just install StableDiffusion localy as the base and then you try out whatever you want and find on https://civitai.com/

Seriously, the big advandage of running it locally is that you can experiment freely A LOT.

Sure why not. Thanks!

If someone else wants to join "how to install AI image generator on my pc 101", just pm me too, preferably with your discord username.

I think it should not matter much if I explain it to one guy, or copy/paste it to 3.

I would be home in ~3 hours and would use discord to chat about the details.

What, u guys knew about it too? Does everyone know about this?

We had a topic about the exact same list 2 weeks ago.

Maybe it was 1, maybe 3, but it was the same list.

Can you make hentai from them? >_> Sometimes there's nothing for obscure waifus and you gotta take matters into your own hands and make it yourself, nah mean?

Locally you can do whatever you want.
Online it's not that easy because NSFW is mostly not allowed / blocked and/or paid only.

So the question is if your PC is able to handle it, or if you want to pay.

I'm currently not at home, but if you want I could sent you some links later today per PM.

I found my favorite.

I sometimes play around with Stable Diffusion localy / Leonardo.AI online too, and the results are crazy by now.

Saying that Russia "only" killed 500 children is crazy when Russia themselves are announcing stuff like this:

Moveset is cool, but the character design is bland as hell.

Especially with such moveset I prefer such a bland basic design over some with tons of silly details.

I really hope that the "super game" term is something he made up on the spot.

Imagine if this was the result of some meeting with multiple people putting their heads together.

I have a pretty large police station across the street, and not a single issue with that.

If "Souls like" counts, these ones.

I have no problem with action RPGs being hard and giving me trouble, but as soon as the game tells me to go back to my corpse so I don't lose stuff I grinded, I simply wont play it.

It's one thing if I waste 5 hours because I can't beat a boss for 5 hours. It's another thing if I waste 5 hours, because I died in a stupid spot, or because I was simply too unfocused after work.

Inb4 any take that isn't liked by him will get a communite note like "Here another source: ", just so he has another tool to deny people he doesn't like the money.

Scary, in form of fear like in phobia? Fire.

I'm not in total fear of fire, but if there is any open fire at all, I tense up. Even a candle is enough for me to force all of my attention on it.

Scary, as in, the biggest worry that I can think off?

And getting some big mental or physical handicaps, completly impacting my life. Or the thought of having such kids, or my family. Like, wtf, needing a wheelchair, losing an arm, dementia, that stuff is scary as fuck.

Karov was taken so many times, that I decided to make a palindrome out of it.

Shani Louk, the german girl that was paraded on that truck got declared dead after fragments of her skull were found:

I would like to link something else instead of dailymail, but I wasn't able to find any other english article about this by now, only german ones.

That's something I actually like about Marvel Snap.

It's mostly enough if you play a bit at the end of the monthly pass to get most stuff of their season pass. Missing a day or even a week deosn't matter that much (as long as it isn't worst case timing).

And yet I still don't play it anymore.

4 or more according to everytownresearch.org :

Important: It's not about 4 people killed.

We now define a mass shooting as any incident in which four or more people are shot and wounded or killed, excluding the shooter.

That's assuming that the merit is supposed to be measured by someones wealth, and that usually triggers a different discussion.

No, the dumbest were Jack Dorsey, Parag Agrawal and the ones who forced Elon to buy Twitter. We would still have a fully functioning platform.

Instead we now have X, a stupid one letter name for a website that at times has become broken and unstable. In fact, I was on it yesterday and it was acting weird giving me the Welcome message, others I follow had reported their timeline showing 1970 as the year.

I would not blame them for selling Twitter for 44 Billions. That wasn't stupid, that was the deal of their lifetime.

In a "4 million dollars, but Twitter stops existing" poll topic anyone of us would have voted for the money, even before Elon had his hands on it.

That's no surprise.

I've never really understood being "tried as an adult". You either are or you aren't. The guidelines for punishment for egregious crimes committed as a minor are laid out, right?

I think there should be a line between "he did something stupid, because he is a minor" and "he did something evil, because he is evil".

Some accidents because minors lack better judgement, no matter how terrible the outcome, are something that can be discussed. Especially if they understand the seriousness and try to repent for it.

This crime wasn't because of some "lack of judgement". Not only did they kill someone just for fun, they are still laughing about it.

Isn't it crazy how many times Musk's name shows up there?

I have absolutly no idea why...

The problem is that it's usally about the bs "Andrew Tate Alpha chad asshole" behaviour.

But calling that shit "masculine" is already too much of an honor for them. They take pride in their masculinity, and also in their toxic masculinity. That's their only identity.

So calling it "stupid bullshit" is much better. There is nothing "masculine" or "manly" about this bullshit at all, we should not give them the illusion that they are "true men" or some bs like that.

You must be, because you left Skies of Arcadia out.

Sorry, but the character design alone disqualifies it from being "top jrpg of all time".

That's something I agree with. Ignoring Phantasy Star but putting Zelda or Fire Emblem is absurd.

https://twitter.com/GeoConfirmed/status/1716123222142550167

This is a new big ass thread from GeoConfirm that is asking many many questions, tries to answer many questions too, but still has many questions left:

https://threadreaderapp.com/thread/1716123222142550167.html

The thing they corrected is this one:

Based on the investigations conducted by @fdov, @OAlexanderDK and @ArchieIrving2 its highly likely:

The missile on the initial Al Jazeera footage is an interceptor.

The explosion is too far away from the hospital to be related to the hospital explosion.

But that's the explosion in the sky.

Answered questions:

1. Is the missile visible in the Al Jazeera stream above or near the hospital?

Highly Likely not.

2. If an Iron Dome missile is involved, why was it fired above Gaza?

Not above Gaza, but highly likely at the edge, doing a 'normal' intercept.

22/X
3. If an Iron Dome missile is involved, can we identify past incidents of Iron Dome missile interceptions occurring above Gaza?

Not relevant, see 2.

23/X
4. If an interceptor was in action, what was its target? 5. What happened to the debris of the intercepted object ?
6. No debris?

Because of the estimates of the distance between the explosion and the hospital, it seems to be exploded too far away to have relevance.

Again: The explosion in the sky as seen in the live footage Al Jazeera got triangulated thanks to multiple PoVs and isn't able to have hit the hospital because it was too far away.

But that still doesn't answer what happend at the hospital:

Questions which are relevant now after this above investigation (restarted numbering):

A. If its a Tamir interceptor and it intercepted something above/in line of the hospital, doesnt this support the IDFs claim regarding rocket trajectory ?

A. Very relevant, although its now highly likely that it didnt intercept something above the hospital, it could have intercepted something that was shot over the hospital. What means that the possibility of another rocket failing still exists.

The biggest question is about the lack of debris.

B. Why is there still no footage/proof of debris that could identify what caused the explosion?

The thread still tries to explain many other things, including the crater analysis and if it was an possible air strike or even an artillery shell.

Conducting a crater analysis is an exceptionally challenging investigative task. Even with access to the impact site, it can take weeks to determine the type of ammunition and the direction of impact.

38/X
Depending on the underground and the angle of impact, the resulting spray pattern can vary significantly, possibly even by 180 degrees. The accuracy of such an analysis comes into question when the specifics of the munition used and the angle of impact remain unknown.

39/X
K. Why is a failed rocket launch still the most plausible possibility?

"Forensic analysis of images and videos suggests rocket caused Gaza hospital blast, not Israeli airstrike"

The biggest issue with finding absolute proof about the cause is the baffling lack of debris.

Time to kinkshame.

I have no idea what the difference is supposed to be.

If I want to say Salami in english, I'm supposed to call it Peperoni.

How do you do analytics if you dont know the industry and dont know the data

That's the tricky part:

You don't actually have to know most of it.

His job is most likely to get some bunch of data, and structure this data so that the industry experts can work with it.

https://gamefaqs.gamespot.com/a/user_image/3/2/6/AAelttAAE982.jpg
So, his job will be to convert Data into Information for the experts. The experts will then interpret the Information and create Knowledge for the management, and they will us this to create their decisions.

At least in theory.

This is what I did for over 5 years in my old job, and probably TC is going to do, if I understand him correctly.

How about instead of finding more ways to tax the poor since its the poor who are most obese and eats unhealthy foods (due to circumstances) we focus on something that wont make them suffer even more. Tax on cigs is the same thing, people in poverty are most likely to smoke so the tax hurts the disenfranchised the most

Then just reduce taxes on healthy food at the same time.

I think most people here know the story about the Subway bread legally not being bread in Ireland.

I don't remember anyone blaming Ireland for taxing Subway sandwiches, but it made people question what the fuck Subway is doing with their bread.

I think it would be enough to offer different food for the kids.

No idea how the US is doing in that regard, but last time I saw that the happy meal has an option for carott fries:

https://gamefaqs.gamespot.com/a/user_image/2/8/5/AAelttAAE98N.jpg

Honestly, I think this is an awesome idea.

I think fighting obesity in children is the most important step.

So, yeah, hit up all the food in schools and kids menues.

I mean, that's such a basic level of assignment (I mean, it's the beginning of computer science 101, so of course it's basic) that every single google search should provide you dozens of different ways to do it too.

That's not even supposed to be a ChatGPT issue.

I hate it when people walk with their giant pet spiders in the park.

As someone who did job interviews on some trainees:

it was probably to be sure that the skills writen on the resumee are legit, and not made up.

I mean, if the job description says "working in excel, using data from various sources and pivot tables" you should at least be able to have an general idea and approach.

Doesn't have to be perfect at all.

The_shibe posted...

how come so many people misremember the same thing at the same time, though?

I would guess some other kind of mental "trick" like priming or whatever.

Typical example:

"Hey, do you remember that Disney clip before their movies with Tinkerbell doing firework magic on the dot of that i?"

"eh, yeah, sure, why?"

"IT NEVER HAPPEND! It wasn't actually on the dot of the i, but the center!"

Or the typical misquotes, like, Darth Vader never saying "Luke, I am your Father!". Yeah, that's because beginning with "Luke" is just easier to get the reference right into some context as one liner.

And, because I now looked up some other "Mandela effects" per google:

Forrest Gump didn't say "Life is like a box of chocolates," he said, "Life was like a box of chocolates."

Interview with a Vampire is actually Interview with the Vampire.

Come on. I have never seen the movies in english, only german. And there Forrest Gump says "Meine Mama hat immer gesagt, "Das Leben ist wie eine Schachtel Pralinen"" - Present Tense.

And the movie is called "Interview mit einem Vampir".

There is no way for me to know that the translation I grew up with differs in such a tiny detail with the original titel.

If I were ever talking n english about the Movie "Interview with the Vampire" I would have simply mistranslated "Interview with a Vampire".

That's no wrong memory or some mandela effect, that's just me not knowing the correct original because it got changed with the translation.

I don't really see the big deal about this. Its a bit dehumanising, but ultimately your relation with this complete stranger probably wouldn't change at all

Sorry, but I disagree.

If you act with strangers, you are not supposed to be "a bit dehumanising".

Doesn't matter if it's "just a joke" or "just a prank" and it's even more true if this is shared on the internet.

No, the videos and images are not pointing to Israel.

streamofthesky posted...

The topic filled up to 500 so damn fast w/ people falling all over to themselves to blame Israel.
No interest in letting the truth be found out, they got the answer they wanted and pushed it HARD.

Any time it's about something Hamas did, like the beheaded babies, they decry "propaganda" and "not jumping to conclusions".
But when it's Israel supposedly doing wrong, leap away!

IDF's word means nothing. Biden's word means nothing.
But if Hamas claims something, it's taken at face value. Hamas wouldn't lie! Except for all the times they blatantly lied.

Yeah, it was beyond crazy and I also fell flat on my face.

My first take was that a single stray missle is unlikely to flatten a whole hospital killing 500 at once, so it had to be intentional.

But every single newspaper I read was full of it, because the hospital itself was seen as the (trustworthy) source.

ADL doesn't seem to know Arabs are also Semetic. Bombing Gaza is anti Semitic then

Anti-semitic has actually nothing to do with semits.

It were german pre-nazis who came up with the term on the own to describe themselves. It's explicitily about jews.

It's a term they used to celebrate. They even founded the "League of Antisemites" just to get together to hate jews.

Honestly, I think it's somehow funny how the MAGAs are basically creating a third party in the house.

I mean, having the majority but still not getting a majority is political joke.

Sadly, the US is too important to let the GOP waste some time with their comedy.

Some.
