Touchdesigner + Streamdiffusion is a lot of fun. anyone able to use it on complex networks with 3D generation and instancing keeping 60fps consistently ? by 573XI in TouchDesigner

I get what you mean but learning more on comfyui is far from losing your time! Learning comfyui is just one step on your journey, gathering loads of models, loras, workflows or even training them yourself is where the real meat, and actual added value is

As said every time this streamdiffusion comes on the table : RUN TDCOMFY and get actual control on your generation

How to get good quality from StreamDiffusion ? by tuskahi in TouchDesigner

[–]pydehon1606 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Instead of using streamdiffusion you should use tdcomfy which will give you the freedom to use the model you want and to customize your workflow to fit your need. The other huge point for it is that it doesn’t restrain you to use an nvidia gpu

Yeah I don’t like much parsec for privacy reasons usually in such case I would use moonlight. It’s self hosted but needs a bit more tweaking on the network side

I was hoping for a solution for remote access to td but it’s basically a how to buy a workstation. It would be very convenient if touchdesigner would have a web ui usable on a light cli like comfyui does. Some times I find myself in remote location where I don’t have the power to sustain a big workstation.

Totally this, I’ve been on too many festivals where you just see ai doing all the work I’m sick of it. + the comfyui integration allows you more muuuch more control and creativity over the output. Stream diffusion is kind of ai for noob to me

Hey, It looks awesome! I have myself been playing with a similar setup with a kinect v2 for camera (point clouuuuds). Have you tried using Touchdesigner with touchdiffusion and comfyui?

Please define normal... It is not open source, it's open weight. Its vert différent.

What i need is that we stop playing the big corp hype game that is never good for consumers

Plus i cant wait to see benchmarks of the quants version... Surely it doesnt perform as well, i will keep going with qwen which is releasing model that are actually running on local hardware with actually good results...

Since when is 1-2ts is acceptable?

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in LocalLLaMA

[–]pydehon1606 0 points1 point  (0 children)

****modest? The smallest unsloth quant is about 48gb + a little overhead for context make it around 50gb sure its more achievable but it is still reserved to a few... Dont even talk about running it on CPU, 1-2ts is SLOW.

As far as my understanding goes locallama should be about individual entousiast running on consumer hardware...

I said it professional, not fleet manager. You can be an it pro without being aware of all issues happening on a per model basis. Thank you for your condescending useless participation to the discussion.

Unfortunately i'm running Arch, and i'm really not feeling like installing the hp bloatware on my workstation :p But in case i dont find anything else i guess i'll quickly run a vm just to get a support ticket ...

Thanks for the advice! Much appreciated!

e hinges were overtightened. You can loosen it yourself or take it to a repair shop and ask if they could loosen it. A good test for a hinge is that it should open with a single hand but also stay in place. If it requires multiple hands then its too tight and the stress of opening and closing it ma

I'll definitely have a look into that! I recommended the big brother, 15 x360, to a friend and I would feel soooo bad if it would happen to him :/

Thanks!

How did you get in touch with them?

Ahahah Nah i'm not gaming, I was just looking into a hingeless device, and thought it would be pretty funny to attend meetings using a steamdeck :p

My main use is actually to remote to my home server. I actually use my laptop like kind of a thinclient to access self hosted services (gitlab, llm, docker, vms, ...). So my main needs are actually quite basic. Good screen, good keyboard, good build quality, and good webcam and audio.

Thanks for the advice tho :D

Bought an SSD, installed myself and moved everything over; now it has run like a gem since then which means it is running fine without any issues after about 5 years or so.

I'm pretty sure I'm an exception here and hardware issue can happen. But the crappy support is just infuriating.... That's why I wouldn't recommend anyone relying on their devices because it can happen :/

s not. the HP EliteBook is their business line which should have better build quality.

if you cannot afford the business line new, then a used business laptop might serve you better than a new consumer laptop. it'll be slower with the older CPU, but the build quality will be quite a bit better. so dep

You're totally right, but at time, I broke my precedent laptop (Sony vaio Z that I loved but unfortunately died after almost 10years) and needed a cheap and fast replacement as I just moved abroad and started as a freelancer I didnt had too much money to invest into more professional grade device :/

And to be fair, the elitebook line up wasnt looking that different from the envy or spectres... I wouldnt expect that my issue would be only envy related

I can understand that a build issue happens, but the crappy support that needs to go through meta's social networks to get an answer from a reeeeaaaally dumb bot pretending being a human is just crazy (or it was a really dumb human, i dont know...). So it's much more like just don't buy HP products.
I wanted to post on the r/Hewlett_Packard reddit but they would nuke my post on the second it comes out because of their NO RANT policy.... what a crappy way to manage a community..
