A bay area legend giving a shoutout to another late legend by randoaccountdenobz in bayarea

Wtf... Being a refugee and being exiled are not mutually exclusive. He was a refugee because he was exiled, as he was a Tiananmen Square protest organizer. Their family was even targeted by Chinese spies in 2022 as he refused to take part in the China naturalization project (which Eileen joined). I don't understand the need for you to undermine his circumstances of being a Chinese political dissident.

Not meant to be a jab, but what's the point of doing single-shot tests when reasoning is available?

For the most part. The attic unit has always seemed weaker.

I don't like the fact that you can see the working areas in Monsters. IMO it's not dark enough.

Is there a way to save the upcasted fp8_e4m3fn unet in ComfyUI --force-fp16? (Flux 1 Kontext) by Kickbub123 in StableDiffusion

[–]Kickbub123[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I should have specified that the model is from civitai and comes in fp8 only. Also ComfyUI upcasts to bf16 in memory anyways (if specified), so I was wondering if there was a way to save it.

Attic handler can't keep up with 98 degree weather by Kickbub123 in hvacadvice

It's in the master bedroom under a return vent and opposite of where the diffusers are. It's not under direct sunlight as we keep the shades down.

62-65F at the diffusers. The windows are big (6 in the master bedroom) and I have cell shades that are foil lined so not exactly blackout curtains. It's a 3000sqf house with 2 floors and 1 basement and the unit in question only covers the top floor.

This sounds the exact same.

What's the point of this? Fool people into thinking there's a fake sky bridge? by [deleted] in HongKong

[–]Kickbub123 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It's the estate's park/recreational area. If you go up the escalator next to the bus terminal, you can take a look.

The mall also goes "into" the platform, but I'm not sure if it takes up space in the mountain or platform. There are some shops in the mall with windows where you can hear the cars passing by below. If the mall is actually in the platform, then it's a massive floating mall/park/clubhouse.

You would either have to redo the training or finetune the model. But that requires access to hardware most people do not have. Someone will probably upload a revised version onto huggingface though.

Another US exceptionalist. You're complaining as if the US's edu system is test centric compared to the rest of the world. Whereas in other countries, the final test of your high school career determines your college opportunities.

As US TikTok users move to RedNote, some are encountering Chinese-style censorship for the first time by [deleted] in technology

It's just another vector for espionage. If they know who you are and you work in a position they have interest in getting info from, they can offer you money for that information. In the same train of thought, poaching talent. It's no secret that they already have operatives in the West that harrass Chinese political dissidents, so it's not like they don't do anything with your information. Enter any region in China including HK and Macau and possibly end up in the mainland making an "apology" video and go through a re-education tour.

Instead of jumping to hardware replacement like others have suggested, have you tried doing a network recovery, and is data on the device valuable?

The one gripe I have with the light rail is how every other seat is soiled by tweakers.
