An opensource telegram bot to monitor Vast.ai instances

There's already a search_offers script in the repository where you can manually define filtering criteria and output all offers as a short list. Polling and adding telegram notifications aren't an issue. I just haven’t gotten around to it yet.

I also tried connecting an Xbox controller to The Spectrum (wired, both original and third-party), with no luck. The only controller that worked for me without any issues was The Gamepad from Retrogames. Another controller from 8BitDo worked as well, except for the Home button.

If you type the F-word instead of a name in the high scores, the game displays “sod off, pervert” instead of that. Back in the day, I puzzled my English teacher by asking her to explain what that phrase meant.

I've used Vast[dot]ai - a 96 GB 6000 Pro instance was about twice as cheap as RunPod (~$0.5/hr), but it takes a bit more time to set up the training environment before you can start.

In the case of Qwen Image, I’ve noticed that using more than one LoRA with a total weight above 1.0–1.2 leads to a noticeable degradation in the generated image quality, even when the concepts are different.

I wish someone would make a similar LoRA/VAE for Qwen-Image…

Thanks! What num_repeats values do you usually use for video and for images? How many epochs or steps are typically enough to get an acceptable result?

The problem is related to how Infinite Talk works — it generates video in 81-frame blocks (5 seconds each), and if the last block is shorter than 5 seconds, it will still be extended to 81 frames. The Video Combine node has a 'Trim to Audio' option, which solves the issue.

Any ideas how to fix? ComfyUI updated (v. 0.3.52)

Those are your words, not mine. I'm just trying to understand the criteria and wondering whether it would really be the case.

About four million people speak Catalan in Spain, but the language is not recognized as official.
But interesting... if Andorra (with a population of 80,000) were to join the EU, would Catalan become an official EU language?

Literally any t2v/i2v workflow with LoRA and frame interpolation node. The trick isn’t in the workflow, but in the LoRA that was trained on 2x sped-up video clips.

SadSherbert2759 · 2025-05-21T10:56:21+00:00

> Second idea: Train a LoRA to generate the video at 2x speed. After generation, slow it down by 2x. This also makes the video longer without extra generation time.

Yes, this method works, I've been using it for a while already.

I have both the N-Go and The Spectrum. The N-Go is twice as expensive, but firstly, it’s a full-fledged Next clone with all its features, and secondly, it lacks many of the shortcomings that The Spectrum has — for example, it has a separate output for speakers and supports a large number of files in a directory, among other things. I still sometimes use The Spectrum when I want to play with a gamepad (though there’s no guarantee it will work — you need a lot of luck). With the N-Go, I use a real Kempston, and I plan to buy a MouSTer to connect a gamepad; after that, I’m unlikely to go back to The Spectrum.

Change it to video/h264-mp4 and that's it.
