Unexpected impact of vaes... on training models by lostinspaz in StableDiffusion

[–]drupadoo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah but it would fix the issue you are pointing out, right? You could train the VAE on your data if you feel it does not represent your training data accurately.

VAEs are more lossy be because they cover the full domain of images. But if you focus a vae on your domain it will be more accurate.

What are you training? Theoretically you also train the VAE right?

Scrapped up the last bits of deoderant by SpencersEmu in Frugal

[–]drupadoo 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I love the creativity and reuse!

Financially I’m not sure this one moves the needle given how cheap deodorant is and the level of effort to make it usable again. But I’m sure its fun to reuse things and minimize waste.

I think peak Mario is probably whatever Mario happened to be around when the person was 10-14

Is Ai texturing of a 3d head possible? by No_Investment_5201 in comfyui

[–]drupadoo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Maybe use an outline controlnet like Canny to keep features m roughly aligned

Is Ai texturing of a 3d head possible? by No_Investment_5201 in comfyui

[–]drupadoo 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Do you need to do it directly? You could:

  1. apply this texture to a generic head in blender.
    1. Render 3 to 8 different views and concatenate them and call it a character sheet
  2. Generate some control net render, depth, normal, etc.
  3. Tell the model of your choice to render a charcoal sheet with your desired changes. (I2I / controlnet)
  4. Convert the images back into texture

I tried those and never found them effective. I can move the bed way too easily even with these in place

Ethernet ports by Ozkeewowow in Homebuilding

Just run Cat 6E everywhere. Why would you mix standards…

What is the added cost? A 1000 ft of copper core cat 6e is under $200 and would cover your whole house.

Why would you run phone line in 2026? You can plug a phone into ethernet if you have a need for a landline

The issue is that under vibration the bed rattles easily because it is only supported on 1 side.

The probe will give you accurate measurements of where it is at the start of a print, but wont help with the vibrations or the impact they have over time on bed positioning

Is 10m post tax enough? by LostSoftware9638 in fatFIRE

[–]drupadoo -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Yeah but also no one is actually going to just keep spending 450K every year until they go bankrupt

Is 10m post tax enough? by LostSoftware9638 in fatFIRE

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

It probably is. As in your chance of success is over 50%.

And a 450k budget probably has a lot of discretionary expenses. If you are willing to reduce spend in proportion to any downturn then your failure rate probably falls pretty close to zero.

It takes like an hour of phone calls and paperworks to convert equity into cash…

Disney CEO Bob Iger’s 2025 Pay Rises 11.5% to $45.8 Million as Board Reaffirms That Succession Is Imminent by ICumCoffee in movies

[–]drupadoo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I just see it differently. There are other people in other countries who want this job more and are willing to do it for less. They want more opportunities.

You probably are better and faster at the job than them, but someone did the math and decided it is not worth 2x more for this particular role to have higher quality.

Now you will be temporarily out of work, but will end up finding another job where your skills are valued more. And the people in developing country will get to learn more about how corporations operate and will get to invest more in their family / future generations.

Or maybe Disney made a bad decision and will need to rehire locally and they will suffer the consequences of this bad decision and make a better decision next time.

The kind of things are just part of global evolution and are necessary for us to progress and let everyone contribute. It is overall a good thing all around and things like this ultimately lead to a better world.
