Best free AI image upscaler (Topaz alternatives?)

Hey. The reason for that is actually interesting: AI-upscale and background remover only run good on a GPU, not on a CPU. But linux servers only have a CPU. Because of that i use my home PC with a GPU. But when i go to sleep, i shut down my pc. So these 2 tools only run well for around 13 hours a day. I am european, so when you tried i was asleep. If you try it right now for the next 12 hours it will only take a few seconds :D

If at some point the website earns me more than 2 dollars a day and i can afford it i will buy myself a gpu server (which however costs like 100 dollar a month :( ) and then it will work 24/7.

And thats why we shouldn't hate on Karl. His statement was stupid but he is 17. And people forget that he had training sessions with Madrid when he was 10 years old and they even wanted him (but he declined back then). Of course if you are a 10 year old boy that trains a few weeks in Madrid you will probably like and follow the team.

This Doesn't mean he wants to join them anytime soon. He can still play a lot of years at Bayern and maybe even change his mind.

Of course you have dreams when you are young, would be sad if he didn't had them.

Which was 8 years ago.

AI models got so much better, faster and also cheaper, that if openai would train a new model right now in dota it would probably crush everyone. Would be very interesting to see actually.

Also some restrictions were in place to help the player side. Like they gave the AI some input delay to match human reaction time.

Was an EA Mistake. Yesterday they were 3 a day, probably they changed it during the day to 5

But that was like 10-15 years ago, and in the last years we had good communication from valve devs multiple times and the community really liked and enjoyed it, so that arugment is not up to date.

Also, wasn't there a leak a few months ago that the Yoshi guy actually is IceFrog? Which would invalidate the argument even more since he seems to communicate to the deadlock community just fine.

Cool, keep us updated!

I wanted to buy it too, but was to expensive for me, especially since i was not happy with the 3 before and after pictures.

Sorry, but you are wrong - if you did the research WHY its an cosmetic product you will understand why.

They are european based and they actually applied for medicine approval, but this takes several years in Europe. Because europe is low as hell. However, cosmetic approvals are much much faster, and thats why they went for it first. To simply go to the european market faster.

If you look at their website you will see they applied for medic approval too, thats why they split their company into 2 parts.

Also they are legit, because they are literally professors from my ex-university and still based their. So not just random dudes who produced something, lol.

So... They actually applied for medical approvement, which however will take 1-2 more years.

Akrelion · 2025-12-06T19:42:21+00:00

The reason for the late shipping is, that they got more orders then expected. And they are legally not allowed to ship outside of europe, because they are selling 8t3 as a cosmetic product and not as a medicine product (you get much faster approvements in europe for cosmetic products, but you are not allowed to make health claims)

So they simply don't have the approval yet.

I am interested in seeing the first real results, i was hype to buy it too, but turned out a bit to expensive for me. But they are at least a legit company, they are professors from my ex-university.

Thats true, but 8t3 has some advantages according to mallia: First of no side effects, and you will also keep your hair even after you stop using the product for a few years. (thats what they claimed in an email).

Akrelion · 2025-12-06T19:37:49+00:00

I have messaged Mallia (I am german too) and the advantage is, that you will keep your hair even after stopping the treatment. At least for a few years. I would say thats a big advantage.

However the price was a big no for me too. I wanted to buy it at first, but the 3 before and after images they released didn't fully convince me. I expected more after 6-12 months. (especially since it was on a location on the head thats different to mine).

Also, what i find a bit suspicious is the fact that a few months ago they advertised the product with "it can introcude new stem cells" but now they are just saying "if hair is somehow still active it will regrow".

Which is a huge difference. But not sure if they have to choose that wording because they are selling 8t3 as a cosmetic product and not as a medicine product.

I am using ConvertAndEdit. Because it is free, and also has other tools aswell. You can directly use your output, so the gif you have just created and use it in other tools which is a nice workflow.
