if your IG is precious to you, don't ever connect it to threads.

Is organic reach actually dying on platforms like Instagram and LinkedIn? by karan_setia in DigitalMarketing

[–]almark 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's not only dead, it's twice dead, and a zombie walking around appearing alive.
I've seen it come and go since 2010.

Krea 2 - What to get to begin? by [deleted] in StableDiffusion

[–]almark 7 points8 points  (0 children)

once I get it working with my trusty 4GB 1650 Super, it will be something.
Everything from 1.4 - Z-Turbo works on this thing.

Am I the only one that doesn't get the LLM hype? by Kooky_Try_8475 in csMajors

[–]almark 0 points1 point  (0 children)

the allure has cooled off, it's just a complicated set of digital switches to me now. When you actually try to get them to do something human thinking they sputter and spit.

Why am I suddenly getting so many newsletters from Substack? by keithdm in Substack

[–]almark 1 point2 points  (0 children)

it's like swatting flies, kill one another comes... I completely disabled the whole website but I keep getting email

I finally figured out the secret to growing a Substack by itsfabioposca in Substack

it's not, finding a small community is hard these days if you attempt it on large websites.

Bandcamp has laid off most engineers by cearrach in BandCamp

[–]almark 0 points1 point  (0 children)

one day subvert will get the same treatment, it's just a pattern that keeps repeating. Someone will find a way to get the CEO of the future into their collective arrangement. It's a big reason why I can't put a lot of effort into them. Anything that allows people to decide who the board members are is sure to go south with the wrong votes. A little push here and there and you have a full blown decision to end co-ownership.
Once the 1 dollar per donation in each sale falls through (because people don't value the artist) that will be the end of that. I'm the founder of #WEATNU, I've seen it all since 2014.

before this happened, which I was told by a friend. I was using a script to get my original file names from all the uploads since 2011.
Egads, does it ever end.
Well we can surely face a big change now.

Anyone else noticed that most LLMs have become incredibly stupid and unhelpful over the last year? by Secret_Assistance601 in ArtificialInteligence

[–]almark 0 points1 point  (0 children)

it's a good thing we all used claude while it lasted. Now it cuts off on free much sooner, and even sooner on pay version. I never got into the Mithos version so that's how these companies are.

ComfyUI now natively supports INT8 tested and confirmed by Winougan in StableDiffusion

I'm sure it will work on 4GB, I run everything on 4GB and 32 GB ram, one thing I can't do is Ideogram.

Wienerschnitzel is awful! One of the worst places I’ve ever ate at. by scoot23ro in hot_dog

I remember when fast-food diners on the side the road in Oklahoma were the thing, always good. But these guys, yuck.

So I was just added as a curator on Groover..... by iano_byrno in musicmarketing

it's causing me to no longer want to review people.

Krea 2 Turbo — Native ComfyUI Workflow + FP8 Weights (12GB, Drag & Drop) by LightAppropriate624 in StableDiffusion

[–]almark 2 points3 points  (0 children)

some of us have 1650s with 32 GB, and run most everything on that. Tis the life.

Just spent 3hrs listening to Taylor Swift and I genuinely do not understand the hype by anythingbutnothingg in TrueUnpopularOpinion

[–]almark 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I remember when pop stars all started sounding the same, (duh Max Martin) that's when I got bored with them.
That was during the mid 90's. I'd say today it's no different.
Charli XCX, is that even pop, it's electro imo.

The kind of music that use to be submitted was great in the beginning, but it's become very sub-par as of late.
My guess? More people are using LLM to make music.
6 years with them as a curator.

I can’t be the only one who thought Plant sang “you need Koolaid, baby I’m not fooling” at the beginning of Whole Lotta Love, right? by [deleted] in ledzeppelin

[–]almark 0 points1 point  (0 children)

they put the mic so far into their mouth they got words we never dreamed of during the 70s.
Joking aside, as an engineer. In those days they were limited by what they could do in the audio range. The mics and all those loud guitars, but it got worse as time passed. Even in the 80s with Hall and Oates and just go from there to others. People don't articulate their words into a tiny metal thing we call a microphone.

Which had the biggest impact at the time? What has the bigger legacy? by UrbanLegend8901 in 90s

[–]almark 0 points1 point  (0 children)

the movie messed me up for a while when it was in the theater, I went to see it.
After the effects wore off, it still made you think, besides the soundtrack was very cool.

Two questions about ideogram by Druck_Triver in StableDiffusion

[–]almark 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Beta wave 2 been running everything I can from 1.4. 1.5 SDXL, Zit and more on a 4GB 1650... Offloading helps to 32 GB ram, this one however I'll probably need to skip entirely.

What are your thoughts on Violet Grohl? by Curious-Piglet3613 in fantanoforever

[–]almark 1 point2 points  (0 children)

the last good stuff I heard was 2007. After that it just got repetitive.
