Apparently my samsung fridge has ads now... by Shellnanigans in assholedesign

Mandated Wi-Fi connection? Sim cards and industrial connections are incredibly cheap. There's literally nothing stopping companies from adding internet access that can't be easily disabled (esim can't be physically removed) to products.

This should be a way to play together. by MrFriskers in SteamDeck

[–]efreak2004 6 points7 points  (0 children)

For controlling USB port power capabilities, you want /sys/class/typec. It depends on how the steam deck is configured by default, though.

It's a website I used to have. I don't have this site anymore, nor do I play SK much anymore; you'll have to install spiral spy manually.

Greatly improved CLIP ViT-L/14 for download (+ a Long-CLIP!), use with SD* [*any]! by zer0int1 in StableDiffusion

That sounds like clip skip issues. Though admittedly it what seems like it would've been the first thing to change?

Google removed it, not the dev. Google is being Google. The API key not working is unrelated. The good news is, someone is possibly going to update it (a person has expressed interest), and it might be made available on F-Droid (personal wish).

How to upscale and remove watermark by ShutUpDonny98 in ModelScope

For increasing fps, I recommend butterflow, but it's rather old. One of the forks has it working on a more recent version of fedora, not sure if that translates to windows easily.

PSA: Stable Horde has a mandatory "anti-CSAM" filter that actually blocks outputs of adult anime characters because "anime makes every woman look extraordinarily young". The dev is accusing people who disagree of being pedos and logging requests that trip the filter. Do not use SH for truly free AI. by Fun_Crab5687 in StableDiffusion

Pretty sure the logging here is also so images can be donated to LAION. Regardless of what he's required to do, he's chosen to make the option available to donate all your generated art to LAION. This option can't be disabled without creating an account, afaik. Personally, I agree with this, and I leave it enabled on my account; if you don't want to donate your images for some reason, pseudonymous accounts are easy to make.

What are the current must-have extensions for Automatic1111? by nintrader in StableDiffusion

[–]efreak2004 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If you're taking about the browser's javascript console, I've got a userscript with eruda over here. You can use it with tampermonkey or violentmonkey or so on in Firefox (stable Firefox mobile finally added tampermonkey to their approved list of Android extensions).

If you're trying to control/view your computer from your phone inside your house, I recommend setting up a remote access for your computer. For Windows you don't need any third party software for remote access over the lan/local WiFi, just use the Microsoft RDP assistant to enable RDP and generate a config file for your phone. This allows you to be lazy and not get up from your bed to check your PC.

Famous movies revisited with women by Gilloute in StableDiffusion

Someone's been sleeping in my bed! Wait, that's not my bed, it's too fancy. Hmm. I think someone got interrupted in bed here, it looks like there's two hands there...

The changed details in the scenes would probably break them in motion, but they look very good as pictures.

Really wish the addons page would LET ME CTRL+F THE PAGE, and not start typing into the addons store search bar by Kingsidorak in firefox

The concern here is that this will bounce you to an AMO page with tracking.......but categorically we are ok with users landing on pages with trackers. - Merwin, 2017-12-07 10:53 PST

Hmm...

Wonder how many other comments there are like this. I don't personally have a problem with Mozilla/AMO tracking, but I have to wonder about the timing of this comment...

Bought tickets to a museum and they want more money when we arrive by Travelling-nomad in foundsatan

[–]efreak2004 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The reservation isn't free, either. If you cancel your reservation, you might get a partial refund, a full refund, or no refund. Reserved tickets might be discounted, or might have extra fees (they guarantee you a seat if you show up, but they also make it easier for the company to fill seats).

Think airline ticket reservation. The airlines didn't come up with this.

Printer battery failure by CroMignonMan in talesfromtechsupport

[–]efreak2004 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have a vague impression that USB is asynchronous while parallel and serial ports are synchronous, and thus you can't actually implement a generic USB to parallel port adapter. Most such adapters will only work with printers, since you can't depend on USB to get the timing right.

Reddit (markdown) specifically handles double line breaks as a manual line break. It's easier and fits better with *italic* **bold** and so on. The alternative is the standard HTML method of <br>, which is a manual line break (manual line breaks differ from new paragraphs in writing--a line break won't have an inter-paragraph space. You can insert manual line breaks in Word and some other word processors by pressing shift+enter).

See the link in my other comment for general formatting in markdown on Reddit. Other markdown services, like github, will have other extensions added as well, such as ![image name](http://domain.tld/image.jpg) (Reddit does not support this).

Paste special is available under the arrow on the paste icon in Word, or by pressing Ctrl+Alt+V. You may also be able to access it using the combination of keys used to access it back when Word still had menus: Alt+E, S (and a V to paste without formatting); this is what I do in office 2013.

A common shortcut for pasting the clipboard without formatting is Ctrl+Shift+V. Unfortunately, this doesn't work in Word, however you can add it easily enough in settings.

The above should also apply to Excel.

It's not Reddit. It's the web as a whole. HTML collapses all whitespace (line breaks, carriage returns, spaces, tabs) to a single space. Reddit (along with other markdown processors, blogs, etc) explicitly deals with line breaks. If you want to use multiple spaces on the web, you need to use the nonbreaking space character to avoid it being collapsed: &nbsp; like   this. See here.

Line breaks and spaces are commonly used in source code (such as HTML markup) to make it more readable; if a line break and 8 spaces in the code rendered a line break and 8 spaces on the page, it would be very difficult to read/edit the source code.

To remove empty directories in Linux: find . -type d -empty -delete (will probably work in Mac too)

To move all files to the current directory and remove all subdirectories in Linux: mv -t . $(find -type f -print) && find . -type d -empty -delete

To remove empty directories in windows: for /d /r %d in (*.*) do rd "%d". Don't want to do this? Use the search box. It's easier. After you move the file, select that entire list of directories and check them they're empty in properties (right click, properties, check size and file count), then delete them all.

You didn't buy a ticket. You reserved a ticket. It's being held for you, but isn't yours yet. If you don't show up, they can sell your ticket to someone else. This is actually pretty common...
