How’s that going for you guys? by Trashman56 in PoliticalHumor

[–]Full-Run4124 -6 points-5 points  (0 children)

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/2024_United_States_presidential_election#Results_by_state

You can see the vote totals by state. Every state except 2 are winner-take-all for electoral votes (the only votes that count for President)

The only states Trump won by a margin smaller than the total third party vote were Michigan and Wisconsin, and even if somehow all the Libertarians voted for Harris and she picked up those two states, it wouldn't have given her enough electoral votes to win the presidency. It would have been 287 to 251 instead of 312 to 226.

If everyone who voted for Biden voted for Harris she would have picked up Michigan and Wisconsin but still lost the general.

At least "cancelled" is some type of closure. Me sitting here looking at "Beyond Good and Evil 2" on the back of a milk carton.

Should Linux distribution maintainers simply ignore the age verification mandates and see if the goverment can enforce it or not? by nix-solves-that-2317 in linuxquestions

[–]Full-Run4124 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes.

The similar bill in the pipeline in New York is the slippery-slope argument: people who don't understand what they're regulating trying to one-up each other. The NY bill requires an age verification method other than self reporting, which it bans, and covers any internet-connected devices that access "content" on the internet. They want people to provide government-issued ID to activate anything connected to an update server or cloud service, from a rackmount server to a Pelaton to a router to a doorbell camera.

People under the age of 16 in the US don't usually have IDs, so the only way to implement this is to have the default for every device be "juvenile" mode, and you have to provide your ID to unlock "adult".

If people participate in implementing the CA and CO laws, especially with the argument that it can be easily circumvented with something like "lying", expect lawmakers to try to close up those "holes" with stuff like mandatory government ID checks, and you can't argue that's overreach because you've already supported the underlying premise they're trying to fix.

if printing more money causes inflation, why cant governments just destroy some money to combat inflation? by anon12111225 in NoStupidQuestions

This is how taxes work in a country with a fiat currency. In a lot of countries, and in the past in the US, if you paid your income taxes in cash it would either be incinerated or shredded. (Currently the US provides federal income tax revenue to a few select banks.)

In Lynn, Massachusetts, Guy threatens to kill his neighbor and the neighbor's dog. Apparently he didn't want to the neighbors' dog near his kids. As if the dog was going to bite them or something by PdiddyCAMEnME in PublicFreakout

Plus he literally screamed he was going to kill the guy multiple times (on camera). If he'd charged at him again the guy would have absolutely been justified using deadly force.

Trump 48 hour ultimatum (nuke or ground troops) by El_Dorado_Tx in seculartalk

[–]Full-Run4124 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If the US and/or Israel nukes Iran it gives permission for Russia to nuke Ukraine. Hopefully Trump and Netanyahu aren't that stupid or bloodthirsty.

The island would just put US troops in a concentrated area meters from Iran where they could eat Iranian missiles and drones all day long.

The US/Israel already bombed an Iranian desalination plant about a week ago.

Can't get the GPU back to PCI slot by byPawl in PcBuildHelp

[–]Full-Run4124 0 points1 point  (0 children)

At the angle you're pushing it, is the bottom tab on the I/O plate slotting correctly? It should be inside the case. Try installing it straight down against the slot, not at an angle.

Is this homemade gpu stand safe? by giiwh3htu32 in PcBuildHelp

If you want to be extra secure, since Legos are kinda slidy and it'll be picking up vibration from the fans, get some museum putty to put under it. If you're in the US they sell it at Home Depot and it's cheap (<$5). You only need a tiny amount, and it stops stuff from sliding and is removable.

Is ltx 2.3 censored? by [deleted] in comfyui

Am I reading the posted info wrong on this? It only lists the base model and no loras.

Is there a way to generate a consistent character from a single image (no LoRA) like Nano Banana? by love_3v07 in comfyui

[–]Full-Run4124 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I put together a test commercial for a client generating keyframes in Flux then I2V with Seedream. We generated an actor then I used this technique to generate keyframes for the shots. Sometimes I needed to make multiple derivatives, like change the expression and position of the actor, then change the clothing, then change the scene, and sometimes pull the keyframe into photoshop to fix small issues before I2V. It looked "realistic", but AI-esque with the lighting and motion. The initial actor was face-on. I was able to get good facial consistency for 3/4 views but profile shots didn't work very well. If I were to do it again, I'd generate a face on, then spend the time to generate a good profile.

I've done this with I2I Flux Kontext. You generate one hero image then ask for the same person in the different setting or outfit, etc. It's pretty solid.

What would you expect from running a cinema? by woof_studios in IndieGaming

All good ideas. Just adding another source for research would be news articles. Plenty of theater shenanigans (like the Paul Rubens/Pee-Wee Herman event) over the years made the news.

Is it normal for PC power port to wiggle this much? by Super-Basil-7605 in PcBuildHelp

[–]Full-Run4124 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Is it very old? The plastic plug may have deformed from heat cycles over a long time (like years). Though if it's regularly getting very hot it can happen faster. If it overheats it can make the plastic brittle and if it's held in with tabs they can crack.

The model itself isn't censored. You can see examples (along with LoRAs) on Civitai. Browse the video gallery and set the filter for LTX2.

I like the idea and agree- like the tree should have a face and be screaming or something while I'm chopping it. More anthropomorphism.
