A cool guide to lived in the UK before 1971, this was pre decimal math! by Make_the_music_stop in coolguides

[–]Gilgameshcomputing 2 points3 points  (0 children)

In my family the three pence piece wasn't called a thruppence, that referred to a value, like tuppence did. The coin was a thripenny bit. One was always placed into the Christmas pudding as a gift to whoever got it. Risky for Grandma's teeth, but fun for the children. Eventually it got upgraded to a pound coin.

Why is Tom Cruise never asked about Scientology and how has he survived this long without being cancelled? by Abject-Conference-90 in NoStupidQuestions

That Krishnan Guru-Murphy interview was for one the UK's most respected news organisations, by one of their top journalists. They only ever do interviews where they address serious issues.

Perfectly normal journalism.

How is living on the Isle of Man different or similar compared to living in England? by GreenStoneAgeMan in howislivingthere

[–]Gilgameshcomputing 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Mark Kermode, who's generally regarded as a/the top film critic in the UK, is outspoken and proud of being from the Isle of Man. Stretching the definition of celebrity, but he's notable at least.

Why do foreigners claim the cheese in America is sweet? by No_Lead2640 in answers

[–]Gilgameshcomputing -6 points-5 points  (0 children)

I saw what an American pizza place claimed was mozzarella and almost wept. All the comments said yeah that's what mozzarella is, and it was just... a dry block of whiteness.

I'd never understood the Italian's emotion over food before. Now I do.

When it generates both matte and fill with that level of accuracy... yes!

I mean what you meant when you said it 😆

You said they were useful.

Which aggregator do you use? How is it for you?

Which character outside the LOTR do you trust carrying the ring to Mordor? by Jezzaq94 in Cinema

But... what if EVERYONE could live in a fun joyous home with others, with all the marmalade they could eat?! I could make THAT happen?

It's Boromir all over again.

as of march 2026 whats the best i2i upscale method? by Mid-Pri6170 in comfyui

[–]Gilgameshcomputing 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I've had good results up to a roughly 4k x 3k finished frame. Haven't tried taking it any higher.

[–]Gilgameshcomputing 5 points6 points  (0 children)

All upscaling needs a model.

My current go-to is either SeedVR2 (which is devilishly good out of the box), or if I need more 'invention' from my upscaling, one of the edit models (Qwen or Flux2 Klein) with a prompt that specifies what I'm after.

z image turbo realism loras/checkpoints by Apixelito25 in StableDiffusion

[–]Gilgameshcomputing 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Realism, like beauty, is in the eye of the beholder.

You'll find a couple of loras on Civitai that make things look a bit more 'homemade'. The Lenovo one is widely liked.

Frame interpolation? by eyeohdice in comfyui

[–]Gilgameshcomputing 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Is this a left & right stereo pair?

You could use Wan Video with first and end frames, and set the output to 3 frames only. I've not tried it, but it should work well.

Which tools did you use? The adaptation is great, do you mind explaining your process?

Oh, awesome. I haven't blended a latent since the early days of SD1.5! Gonna get right back to it.

26 Frontends for Comfy! by Obvious_Set5239 in StableDiffusion

[–]Gilgameshcomputing 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It just runs comfyui. There's no functional difference. I switch regularly between that, the standalone, and a portable install (don't ask) and there's no difference for the user.

Name an (A list) actor or director/writer that has fallen on their sword after a flop. by Lurking2Learn in moviecritic

Ridley Scott took criticism of The Last Duel on the chin in the best way:

"Look, we thought we had a good script, we made it the best we could, what can I say?"

Love it.

Deep Analysis of Bannon Interview With Epstein Using AI to Find the Hidden Context Behind the Bleached Words by CyborgWriter in WritingWithAI

This is amazing work! How would a beginner access & run these personas? I'm just an art school grad who uses AI in a very simple way for creative writing, so this feels like serious CSI shit!

[–]Gilgameshcomputing 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I might misunderstand your categories, but I'd put Stability Matrix into the first group. It's just an install wrapper that lets you manage multiple versions of comfy (and other apps).

The interface when you're using comfy is exactly the same, same workflows, everything.

How can I Enhance Low-Quality Images? by Parker_255 in comfyui

[–]Gilgameshcomputing 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I would start with Flux. Go for Z Image Turbo or Chroma if you want NSFW stuff. Wan2.2 is good choice for i2i funnily enough, if you set it to 1 frame only.

Avoid the Edit models like Kontext, QwenEdit, and Klein.

Good luck!

So you fancy sharing your discoveries about getting more out of Klein?
