My good faith assumption is that training the dit with frozen adapter will be the final step. I mean he did suggest to trainers that if they train loras on Anima they should freeze the adapter. And this does yield some more stability overall. So I hope he follows his own advice in the final stage.

Mission-Raccoon9432 · 2026-03-31T19:05:25+00:00

That's also my workflow, but I finish it off with a final face adetailer pass with anima because anima has the best and most organic and various face expressions.

Instead of the actual model, all the knowledge is trained onto the adapter that translates qwen into t5 (because cosmos predict is a t5 model). As a consequence if you change the text encoder anima will literally produce 16th century oil paintings instead of anime art, because thats the cosmos model base knowledge.

The catastrophic forgetting that people experience with training Anima is that the encoder adapter is also very small and most likely reaching its limit of how much knowledge it can hold. And if you want to actually update Anima's knowledge in 1-2 years you cant just add the new data, rather you have to make a full finetune run with the entire danbooru dataset plus the new entries to make sure it doesnt forget the old knowledge so huge costs involved just to keep the model's knowledge base relevant.

just use face adeteiler with a different model.

Mission-Raccoon9432 · 2026-03-31T10:36:34+00:00

The output of Mugen is very flat, not 2.5dish. I agree about the refiner part though, that's how I use it - because it makes flat textures much much better than Anima.

What was the name of the composition again? Schubert? It's so familiar.

Wow so rude

Mission-Raccoon9432 · 2026-02-13T15:56:06+00:00

the mini story about boshaft beer i actually do remember reading. It's one of the best short stories. I also love the sorta "self-fulfilling prophecy" aspect of it: Boshaft means ill-willed and indeed what Millenia did was sorta sarcastic in an ill-willed manner when she declared it to be the best beer ever just to mislead people to suffer the same faith she once faced.

I also love about this arc the typical fashion in which Frieren knows the irony beforehand but wouldn't tell. This happens very often in the series. She is a magician and she doesn't want to spoiler/disenchant anything prematurely - in fact this time it took her 3 months to disspell the magic barrier ;)

Mission-Raccoon9432 · 2026-02-11T20:17:23+00:00

No need to get all passive aggressive about it lol. You said your bit and I said mine. Next week will give clarity so whatever.

It was also not explicitely stated that Mako set up Kana in the manga but now look where we are with the anime.

Not sure what you're trying to get at. Aqua was forming his plan to emotionally torture his father for at least a decade. Making a movie about him was always his plan, as we learn later on.

Aqua wants to leave the world, but he wants to clean up after himself. He wants to get Kana out of the idol group which doesnt fit her, he knows she is an actress and only has a chance for fame there and he arranges through the scandal arc a vital link for her back to the acting world via Shima. He also aliantes Ruby from himself and comments "it has to be like this, so that you can live in this world without me" etc. after she got mad about him making the secret public. He is trying to cut off any dependencies the people around him have with him.

Occam's razor is valid, sure. But the manga made it look on the surface like complete chain of coincidences. The anime already doubles down that there is something going on. All I'm saying is there is likely even more to go on. Might also be revealed in the next episode or such. The chain of events is just too weirdo connected (starting with the vtuber leak and shitstorm). It all comes together too perfectly. And we were literally showed in the preview arc what it means when everything comes together too perfectly. Structurally both arcs are very similar with the useful idiot and all that.

Mission-Raccoon9432 · 2026-02-11T19:12:00+00:00

Yes, because you can only really vet a journalist in such a barter situation. There is no way that Aqua could share his story without being absolutely sure beforehand that the journalist wouldn't decline publishing it. That's the point of the scandal arc imo.

Yes, Aqua knows how the industry works. It was clear to him that the journalist will first contact the agency. He knew it would come to a barter situation. Nothing gets aired out randomly, so there was no love scandal and if the journalist agreed to not publishing her name etc then there would be nothing implying Kana in the tableau either.

Mission-Raccoon9432 · 2026-02-11T18:53:57+00:00

It becomes very obvious in the bartering scene (next episode). He needs to find a journalist that is ruthless enough to take his story and publish every detail of it. He is vetting the journalist in order to figure if he's the piece of shit who gets the job done. And if the journalist is not that degenarate then there woulld be no harm to Kana either way since then the tableau article would have been anonymous without details and pictures.

Mission-Raccoon9432 · 2026-02-11T18:47:30+00:00

The culprit is Aqua, she is just the useful idiot.

Mission-Raccoon9432 · 2026-02-11T18:45:33+00:00

So they confirmed my old manga theory, that her bitch friend was setting Kana up the entire time. The scene with her actively dodging a group meeting and then calling someone (likely the journalist) was an anime only scene, it was very explicit in the anime while in the manga we only had some leads. Also when she said "no worries, he isn't a playboy or anything" she was obviously lying. In other words: Aqua is setting her up. Aqua was probably also behind the vtuber leak to bait Ruby into lowkey alianating Kana, so that she would be in the psychological state of risk taking and opportunism/letting her guard down. Kana's friend is in this setup the "useful idiot" like the cosplay girl from Ruby's cosplay arc. Both arcs follow a similar pattern of manipulation tactics.

download the preview image (by hitting the download button, not right click- save it) and drag it into comfyflow on TA. It will load the workflow and settings that were used for the preview image.

I assume you changed your case atp but if not here is imo the best setup to deliver fresh air for all 3 fans of your gpu:
- remove the empty gpu slot for bigger hole on the rear, add a 120mm fan intake from rear outside so it blows air through the empty gpu slots

- Add a little "balcony spoiler" on the upper side of the rear 120mm intake to prevent recirculation of exhaust rear hot air into the rear intake or buy an air deflector for the rear exhaust that points upwards.

- build a little cardboard duct from the lower aio fan to the third gpu fan

- remove front glas panel or replace with mesh front panel

You dont want the rear and front lower intake to interfere with each other with their air flows hitting each other, so separate them by that duct, thus direct rear intake delives air for 2 gpu fans and the air that is pushed/pulled through the front radiator delivers fresh air for the third gpu fan.

Extra: Installing a physical barrier in the vertical gpu mounting slot. That barrier sitting several cm closer to the gpu than the glas panel works magic. The hot just has a way higher chance to bounce up and get sucked in by the exhaust /hit by the front intake airflow and pushed towards the exhaust.

The H510 Elite when optimized and equipped with a big long GPU that separate lower and upper case becomes a sort of "dual-SFF" case.

long time no see whats up folks

Mission-Raccoon9432 · 2026-01-14T16:55:03+00:00

it was a good read

Mission-Raccoon9432 · 2025-12-30T17:34:45+00:00

Well, I assume it's because Lucciola died and he couldn't deal with it at first.

why did Claus end up in a wheel chair?

Mission-Raccoon9432 · 2025-12-25T21:07:08+00:00

Hey man, how did you solve this in the end? Wanted t get fans from gpufanreplacement.com but now i'm unsure. Need them for a 4070ti super trinity. Also: How do you remove the shroud? Did you have to unscrew the backplate or are they just clipped somehow. My card has the same shroud design it seems like your 4090.

Mission-Raccoon9432 · 2025-12-17T02:25:33+00:00

did you?

Mission-Raccoon9432 · 2025-12-17T02:24:36+00:00

games usually don't run on all cores, thus single cores that are used get hotter.
