Ugh, CNN:
These cases have unfolded as the Trump administration has abandoned the “humane enforcement” of immigration laws when deporting mothers and fathers who entered the country illegally
No, they probably entered the country legally but then overstayed their visa. Just like the majority of undocumented immigrants. FFS. What kind of weird narrative line are they trying not to cross?
Try the FLUX models and learn how to use that style of promting (it doesn't use a negative prompt).
My favorite right now is AnimePro FLUX which can generate great images in about 6 seconds on my 4060 Ti 16GB.
No, actually! There's no metadata option in .WebM to tell it to loop! It's not in the spec (which is just a subset of matroska).
The format literally does not support looping. Whereas the .WebP spec does provide a looping option:
https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/rfc9649/
It's in the ANIM chunk which specifies the "loop count". If it's zero, loop forever.
WebM has no built-in loop flag 🤷
If that's all we hear - is that the end? Not thimerosal. Not aluminum. Not MMR. Not Hep B.
Correct! It's not caused by any of those things. Just like it's not caused by:
- "Refrigerator mothers"
- Not enough hugs
- Trauma during childbirth
- Being raised in an orphanage
- Sugar
- Food dyes and preservatives
- HFCS
- Eating too much fast food
- WiFi or 5G
- Humors
- Fluoridated water
- "Chemtrails"
- Living near power lines
So on and so forth. Maybe—just maybe—there's no universal cause and it's just something that can happen.
Can there be things that increase the likelihood of an autistic child forming in a mother's womb? Surely! But that's the kind of thing that relies on statistics. Ya know, that thing you obviously don't trust because you never let go of the "vaccines cause autism" bullshit.
I have no doubt that after many, many decades of research—and maybe with the help of some big data/AI—we can figure out what sorts of things actually increase the likelihood of autism. It'll be probably something like: If you have these three genes and your partner has these other three genes then you should avoid eating venison while also consuming saccharine.
Maybe we'll get something better than that but if my experience with big data are any guide, the correlations are going to be wild and crazy like that... And they won't really give you "an answer", just places where a scientific investigation might be warranted.
I really like WebP. It has a super annoying issue though: Animated WebP can't take advantage of hardware acceleration.
And the real problem there is that WebM doesn't support looping. So if you want an auto playing, looping gif-like video you have to use WebP and thus, give up on hardware acceleration.
Terry Pratchett nailed it in The Color of Magic.
Twoflower was a tourist, the first ever seen on the discworld. Tourist, Rincewind had decided, meant 'idiot'.
They'll pay the fee and underpay the H1-B visa holders even more to make up the difference.
They're indentured servants. They can't quit or they risk being deported by an increasingly violent ICE.
It's the most beautiful thing I've ever seen!
They're pushing the schedule ahead as fast as possible because Trump is literally dying. He probably had a stroke and has obviously been getting infusions. It won't be long before they announce, "he had a bad fall."
Just be careful with your definition. Here's some things that are "generative AI":
Think about the reason why you want to ban generative AI: Is it because it sucks? Or because you have something against training AI models with images posted publicly to the Internet? Is it the environmental impact of data centers?
Be clear in your ban statement as to your reasoning so it doesn't seem arbitrary and capricious.
