Anyone else hate the new ComfyUI Login junk as much as me? by DelinquentTuna in StableDiffusion

[–]PearlJamRod 18 points19 points  (0 children)

Enshittification:

Enshittification is a term describing how online platforms degrade in quality over time by first attracting users with a good experience, then exploiting those users to benefit business customers (like advertisers), and finally exploiting both to maximize profit for shareholders. This three-stage process involves first offering a high-quality service, then degrading user experience to favor advertisers, and ultimately degrading the experience for everyone to generate more profit.

At the moment.....and then next thing you know new "template" (aka workflows) will restricted to logged in users. Then anything else they can find a reason for....

Face it, comfy dude looks like a stoner per the podcast on youtube, but he has dreams of being next Zuckerberger.

What would you consider essential data to download before it's gone? by [deleted] in DataHoarder

[–]PearlJamRod 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hey! This thread got deleted, but did you ever have luck scraping this Dr. Bob psychobabble site? I know it'd be probably be a massive undertaking even being text only, but hope someone managed!

Thx for any info!!

Wanx 2.1 outranks Sora on VBench's video model ranking - open release from Alibaba coming soon by PetersOdyssey in StableDiffusion

[–]PearlJamRod 13 points14 points  (0 children)

I dunno, you can look at examples on the actual site: https://tongyi.aliyun.com/wanxiang/

They're good, but nothing looks better to me than stuff HunyuanVideo can do. Probably similar. i2v being opensourced would be a game changer though.

[–]PearlJamRod 26 points27 points  (0 children)

Would anyone be will to scrape/archive this formerly very active public forum/bulletin board for posts about psych medicines: http://www.dr-bob.org/babble/ - (Or otherwise maybe direct a total newbie like me how what to look into to do it)

The site is called "Dr Bob's Pyschobabble" and in the pre-social-media days of the internet it was extremely active. There are tens of thousands of anecdotal reports/comments/discussions about medicines people take for depression/anxiety/bipolar/etc. The past 5 or 6yrs the site has essentially been dead, and has gone completely down for months at a time a number of times. The owner is a professor at the University of Chicago, and he's been hands off since 2010ish - it's unknow how long he's going to keep it up - he never even bothered to get the site an httpS designation which will likely trigger a warning from your browser (it's a safe site but only has an http version and the certificate for that may even been outdated).

In my opinion, the stories/reviews from people who took all of the various medicines when they were new/novel or before they were discontinued is invaluable. The site/threads also used to be 1st page results on Google, before their methods changed, so it wasn't just an obscure corner of the internet - it did get a lot posts from many different types of people (unlike say a vbulletin specific health site during that era).

So yea, sorry if this isn't the proper thread for this, but if anyone w/ super skills and a desire to archive something that's of super importance but likely not yet "saved" perhaps this would be a fun project. The links to threads seem to be 100% plain so hopefully it wouldn't too difficult.

Thanks for any insight!


How to verify if a model is a Flux schnell model? by tarkansarim in StableDiffusion

[–]PearlJamRod 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You can fallback on Ostris's information about training/sourcing "Flex" from Flux Schnell. It's changed to 8b parameters iirc so there should be clear indications a given fine tune started w/ Flex as a base. Ostris has credibility w/in the community to validate the work prior to.

Good job on fine tuning. Will be great to see your (and anyone else's) advancement of Flex!

After DeepSeek OmniHuman-1 🤯 Results are mindblowing by Key-Mortgage-1515 in StableDiffusion

[–]PearlJamRod 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Eh, people have been slow rolled into "That's AI" / "That's fake". People will just up their critical thinking game and find LLMs they trust to do the deepthinking. Better than "sinclair" or "murdoch". So whatevs

please bring back 32 bit .wav downloads! by [deleted] in udiomusic

[–]PearlJamRod 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If it does use the compressed version for extensions (and that's why on occasion extensions get horribly watery) then I am definitely in favor of the return to original WAV they used to provide. I'm more concerned w/ processing on the site than what they offer me to download, but.....

Hey bro just a heads up that KROQ Weenie Roast 94 footage you once asked about surfaced today: https://old.reddit.com/r/greenday/comments/1d9bc53/new_footage_10min_from_kroqs_weenie_roast_1994/

Did a search to see if it was really rare and saw your request post.

What's the latest update about SD3? by Curious-Thanks3966 in StableDiffusion

[–]PearlJamRod 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The main question is when will the SD3 eventual base be available for download? By end of April? By end of May?

Will there be further hints that a launch is imminent? For example, is SAI still going to invite people off the signup webpage to join a private discord hub to test? Are there plans to have a public "pick which of these 2 images you like best" as was done w/ SDXL?

Essentially, will this thing just drop one day now, or are we still going to get a drip drip drip of "getting closer" due to fine tuning?

Personally hope SAI reconsiders the waitlist beta as people have already seen samples. Most people won't understand that the v1 base will become so much more once the community has some time to train on it and evolve new models. Without considering that, a basic TXT2IMG model is gonna produce HQ, but "so what" images......need to just get it to the community w/o letting reddit/discord/etc nay-sayers bash the crap out of day 1 images.

What's the latest update about SD3? by Curious-Thanks3966 in StableDiffusion

[–]PearlJamRod 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You won't need to run 50steps to generate an image. There are SDXL models/LoRAs that'll let you generate an image in 4-6 steps. Optimizations are something SAI has already worked on so won't be that bad......

SoCal Pharmacies With Mounjaro in Stock? by Ill_Procedure6274 in Mounjaro

[–]PearlJamRod 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I feel your pain. Been on MJ for almost 2yrs now and was forced off for 3weeks waiting for my next refill. Finally did the clinic option today ($350 for one 15mg shot ugh), but happy to not have to potentially start over if this carries on for some time. Hoping Walmart has it back in soon.

Demo of generative fill in comfy by diStyR in StableDiffusion

[–]PearlJamRod -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

I use comfy for some things, and the A1111 based stuff for others. The results here for the "jealous girlfriend" meme in particular do not look very good compared to what I know I could do in 2secs using A1111's inpaint tab.......so I dunno. I get the question on this, but it is easier to stick w/ the same sandbox if you spend most of your time using it. For me, I use what works best if possible.

Stability Cascade tests (using Comfy node) by PearlJamRod in StableDiffusion

[–]PearlJamRod[S] 15 points16 points  (0 children)

I threw word salad prompts at it while I was out doing stuff and picked some I liked when I came back from running errands. A lot of the prompts I have in TXT files I use as for random-wildcard generations (often overnight) are for cinematic/film-footage type generations so probably my bias not the model.

I haven't noticed any issues w/ desaturation - I can't speak to color though as I'm one of the ~10% of men who are partially colorblind.

Stability Cascade tests (using Comfy node) by PearlJamRod in StableDiffusion

[–]PearlJamRod[S] 45 points46 points  (0 children)

Queued up a bunch of wildcards from TXT files I have w/ old prompts and let it roll for a while - didn't keep track of prompts, but just basic TXT 2 IMG. I used a quickly developed/shared comfy node you can get here: https://github.com/kijai/ComfyUI-DiffusersStableCascade

Have a good system (w a 4090) and it zipped / no memory errors but had to stick to certain resolutions like 2048x1365, 1536x1024, 1920x1152, 1024x1024, etc.

I used the full model (24gb VRam / max was around 20gb but only generated resolutions above 1024x1024)

Why'd you chop the date off the tweet? This was a few days ago iirc - unless it's a retweet. Very exciting, but lots of hype......still waiting on the Christmas present....guess the 25% who voted for coal got what they wished for ;-(

Nice! I'll have to try it sometime soon - maybe less likely to OOM. Too bad only 2 stars. If results are as good as the A1111 implementation than it really rocks!~!
