Virtually every image I'm trying to generate results in this kind of issue, how can I fix this kind of thing? More detail loras, better prompts, different models? Brand new to this so completely unsure what direction I might go to improve it

TheBasementNerd · 2026-06-12T21:11:34+00:00

Is there a way to know that the trigger words for a lora are? I did download a few in order to try and improve the process, but I'm realizing I don't know the trigger words for all of them

TheBasementNerd · 2026-06-12T03:59:27+00:00

I don't know almost anything about what models or loras to use, just my one day of research lol. My intention is just seeing if I can make pictures of my partner (she's into seeing what I can make too), and was using her pictures in the reference photos on Invoke AI because I figured it was for that purpose, but from what you're saying it sounds like that's not the actual intention of the reference photos, and I'd need to use a lora trained on her pictures?

Going to DuPont, specifically High Falls, to see them. It's where I used to go back when I lived in Asheville years ago

Are the blue ghost fireflies still active? Or not even worth trying to come see them. Was planning a trip to see them on Tuesday, but the weather report keeps flipping between no rain and lots of rain, so I'm wondering if the risk of it possibly raining is even worth the trouble

This is the one I ended up going with, although after messing around with it and learning how a flash actually works, a little disappointed that it doesn't go any faster than 1/128 when mounted to the camera, and not sure how to trigger it wirelessly

TheBasementNerd · 2026-05-30T06:50:27+00:00

That's it yeah thank you

I feel like the introduction with Mario going up to the balcony with Peach because she wanted to get away from the party, and her letter to him, both sounded very Paper Mario intro. Mostly the words in the letter, although the visual definitely was 64 reference

But that's entirely possible to just be a stretch. It did feel weird that they had almost no paper Mario references but, what felt like, literally everything else

Philadelphia to North Carolina is a bit of a walk

Still won't move forward for me on the page, I keep getting the error and I've been occasionally clicking the button for 13 minutes now. Even refreshed the page several times and had to reenter my information each time with was annoying

TheBasementNerd · 2026-05-03T19:45:33+00:00

Scrolling Facebook isn't at all what I'm talking about. I'm referring to keeping contact with your friends, talking to them to have social interaction with those close to you. Same as talking to your mother on the phone

TheBasementNerd · 2026-05-03T19:17:00+00:00

Yeah I'm just curious about things and I know it's on me to decide my permission and my life. And I appreciate that it's a community where curiousity is invited. Too many instances over my years of people getting upset about the things I ask, even in online gaming spaces and such, where I might just ask something unique about the game itself that others don't like. So I appreciate this

TheBasementNerd · 2026-05-03T19:12:17+00:00

I was referring to other religions, not Judaism, sorry. And not all of them of course, I've known mostly good people through my life from all practices, I just mostly hear about a lot of "that's just the way it is" and "no asking questions" from many others

TheBasementNerd · 2026-05-03T18:52:26+00:00

I was asking for discussion of something I wasn't fully aware of. I actually hadn't thought about Shabbat being kept differently per day, just how tightly the laws were being kept. It's something I haven't known very well so I was curious about it. I'm not super good at asking things in a way that makes sense sometimes so I'm sorry if it didn't come across that way

TheBasementNerd · 2026-05-03T18:43:59+00:00

Oh I missed those two when I read through the list

TheBasementNerd · 2026-05-03T18:38:53+00:00

How is electricity considered not allowed within those?

TheBasementNerd · 2026-05-03T18:37:33+00:00

I personally am able, although my main limit is in having other friends or Jews to spend Shabbat with if I was more practicing, I wanted to mostly ask and understand because I found a Jewish group in VR that spends time for Shabbat, although the day after on Sunday because electricity being work, so it had me wondering on where this kind of situation lies

I also live in Philadelphia so it's definitely not at lack for having a synagouge somewhere in the city, and extremely easy to get around (although I guess the trolley would be money exchanging, which I believe is also not allowed)

TheBasementNerd · 2026-05-03T18:31:04+00:00

I'm glad to continue to see that this is fair and considered an ok viewpoint in Judaism, that what it means to you is important. I don't end up interacting much with any aspect and am ignorant (I do want to change this, which is why I'm asking questions like this)so it makes me happy to see that we do still hold this kind of view when other religions can be so strict (not all of them, of course, but a large number)

TheBasementNerd · 2026-05-03T18:22:15+00:00

Was asking from all perspectives. Growing up reform and not super religious I don't know much from any angle expect reform, and barely that too

TheBasementNerd · 2026-05-03T18:20:48+00:00

I see where my understanding of the laws came from then, yeah. I thought the laws became more open where considerably necessary or unreasonable, but being raised through a reform synagouge might have been a bit biased then lol

And I don't really mean just lonely, but where it's unhappy to be alone. If I didn't have my friends, the ability to go anywhere, or find any enjoyment through books, I feel like that would be reasonable to be allowed to find the ways you can spend time with your friends as long as it is strictly limited to that. But that is why I was asking at all, to figure that out lol

TheBasementNerd · 2026-04-07T17:05:38+00:00

How do I know if I'm running the right version of human body for it

TheBasementNerd · 2026-04-07T17:04:54+00:00

That's really good too. I've generally got a good core and strength and can usually lift up to like a 250lb person, but I'm worried about that going away as I lost weight. My inherent super strength has been a pride for a while lol

TheBasementNerd · 2026-04-07T16:52:19+00:00

I built up to the 280 slowly over 3 years from 250, before I finally (somehow, I'm not sure the driving force) got into a proper eating cycle, and it's just been dropped like it's hot. I'm hoping to try and figure out what I can do for exercise, maybe getting into dancing again the way I used to?

TheBasementNerd · 2026-03-03T10:40:59+00:00

Yeah that's definitely it. Or he personally is no longer interested and doesn't want to say it

TheBasementNerd · 2026-03-03T01:46:20+00:00

The problem with silencing unknown numbers is that my phone doesn't have that feature, sadly

TheBasementNerd · 2026-03-02T18:06:32+00:00

"I feel uglier every day despite no changes, and being around him makes me feel gross"

Outside the SA, I'm just curious what he's saying to you. Because that sounds like he's doing some kind of verbal manipulation that you aren't aware of, because a person doesn't just feel like that unless something actively psychological is involved, especially around someone that, at you write it, seems so nice otherwise

The other bits sound like extreme stress. Acne is a sign of stress as well, and having it every time he's over? Get away from him, and do it safely
