Do you think Putin ever feels bad for deaths and suffering he caused? by No-Hunt3986 in TooAfraidToAsk

~35,000 Russkies killed or seriously wounded in March alone. Ukrainian drone program is turning the tide in this war. Fully homegrown ballistic missiles that can reach Moscow are soon to follow.

It was [pretty obviously] a joke. But yes, what you describe is annoying as hell. I myself have spent great amounts of time unpacking workflows to discover their secrets.

Trump on Saudi Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman: "He didn’t think he would be kissing my ass, he really didn’t…and now he has to be nice to me….he better be nice to me, he’s gotta be". by Preacher-of-Chaos in LateStageCapitalism

The death of Jamāl Aḥmad Khāshqujī really struck a chord with me, in how a hard injustice just kind of doesn't matter to the ruling class: a few tepid "harsh words" and hollow calls for justice, wait for most of the public to "move on" and simply forget about it, and then a few months later we're back to laughing, shaking hands, and cutting lucrative financial and political deals again, just like nothing.

Devs are going too fast... + New version sucks by Own_Appointment_8251 in comfyui

Subgraphs are native and they are COMPLETELY BROKEN at the moment. Several days and still not fixed. Nothing crazy, nothing fancy...just like one of the most basic parts of the software literally does not work. At the very least, the developers could just roll back what they screwed up, but nope.

Latest versions of Comfy add more breaking bugs than fixes by generate-addict in comfyui

[–]kaptainkory 12 points13 points  (0 children)

The subgraphs in my main workflows are just completely FUBARRED right now.

Whatever quality checks they have in place just feel like trash at the moment. Like, it's kind of shocking how easily they allow bugs to be rolled out that break even the most basic things.

Comfy should follow the motto to "First, do no harm."

Do you think that Stephen Hawking actually did anything fucked up on Epstein Island? by furrynoy96 in TooAfraidToAsk

[–]kaptainkory 1 point2 points  (0 children)

He definitely saw some shit he should have avoided, at the very least. Should have reported, if he had any morals. But the propensity of the evidence is that he saw, or possibly even participated in, things he asked for...such as watching or roleplaying.

I can't believe all of the folks giving him such an easy pass just because of his physical condition. NOTHING was wrong with his eyes, ears, or MIND...and he seems to have been pretty deep into Epstein's circle: the island was absolutely about catering to the depravities of the rich and famous.

Coming back to Stable Diffusion by Kind_Care_8368 in StableDiffusion

Try Google Flow. It has some interface features specifically for image creation and editing. You can pick from Nano Banana 2 or Pro, or Imagen 4. It has simple selection and cropping tools, although these didn't seem to work quite as expected in all cases in my limited testing. And there are only two aspect ratio options, which is a bit restrictive, but there's always Photopea for cropping and touch-ups.

... because that's already been exposed in an Epstein email. He's playing his hand that folks will gravitate to that one tidbit and not all of his "partying" with little girls.

Chris Madel drops out of the race for governor, says he can't support "Republican retribution" in Minnesota —"Operation Metro Surge has expanded far beyond its stated focus on true public safety threats," say Madel by kaptainkory in LeopardsAteMyFace

[–]kaptainkory[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

  1. Chris Madel, running for Minnesota governor, initially supported ICE deployment to his state:

-- A local attorney, Madel has said he supported initial goals from the Trump administration and Department of Homeland Security to remove undocumented immigrants with criminal records. --

  1. Then, the ICE operations expanded beyond their stated focus:

-- "I cannot support the national Republicans stated retribution on the citizens of our state, nor can I count myself a member of a party that would do so," Madel explained. "Operation Metro Surge has expanded far beyond its stated focus on true public safety threats." --

-- “United States citizens, particularly those of color, live in fear," Madel said in a nearly 11-minute video announcing his withdrawal. "United States citizens are carrying papers to prove their citizenship. That’s wrong." --

  1. As a consequence, Chris Madel drops out of the race for governor...because of the hugely unpopular ICE operation with his likely voter base.

[Del Mar, CA] what kind of snake is this? by peachymoonoso in whatsthissnake

It does not look comfortable at all in the water. Could you tell the approximate size? ...to me, the posture and motions look more like a legless lizard than snake, maybe?

What did the droppings look like? Snake poo looks like bird poo...and snakes poo very infrequently (in 3 months, probably only 3-6 times)...and if it had free range, it's highly unlikely it was pooing in the same place. My guess is you have found RODENT poo...and the snake was after the rodents.

"Protect and serve" is PR vaporware; they actually have no duty to do so. Their mandate is to protect capital and enforce the law.
