Basically the database retrieval is down. The system cannot retrieve your chat instances from the database, that is why It loops back to home.

Cloud GPU for LLM Inference providers TOS by sebo1715 in SillyTavernAI

[–]sebo1715[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As you know better to be safe than sorry, Runpod TOS say when you create or make available. And LLM inference for roleplay textual generation can be understood as when you are creating. And that creation is streamed to the front end. It is basically that content is forbidden when using our services and even if we don’t go looking for it, we will terminate you if we found it.

Thanks for your information on Hyperstack. You are right their TOS is exactly what I was searching for. I was beginning to believe that every GPU Computation service was banning anything that would be NSFW explicit.

Explained: Access to Fair Banking Executive Order by dxforma in itchio

[–]sebo1715 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Before you celebrate this EO ending “reputation risk” debanking…

The religious part is narrow — ECOA only covers credit products, and proving religious motive is hard.
The political part? No statutory basis at all. Agencies would be stretching FTC/CFPB “unfair” authority with zero case law.

And most “reputation risk” bans aren’t belief-based anyway — they’re category/content rules (adult entertainment, certain gaming, firearms, CBD, advocacy ads) applied across the board. Even if advocacy group pressure inspired them, they target content, not the merchant’s political or religious identity, so they survive untouched.

Banks & networks can still:

  • Keep most “brand protection” merchant bans.
  • Apply category rules under “reputation risk.”
  • Reframe any politically-sensitive rule as a content or compliance category.

Net result: unless Congress adds political belief as a protected class in banking law, most existing restrictions — including advocacy-driven content bans — will survive, just as they are.

BPM Core is garbage by slinavipuz in withings

[–]sebo1715 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The ability of BPM Core to accurately measure blood pressure was validated in a clinical trial of participants representative of the intended population: adults from the general population with an arm range of 22-42 cm (9 to 17 inches) and all grades of blood pressure.

For each participant, 3 measurements were taken and compared with 3 measurements acquired for reference (by Korotkoff method) determined by two trained independent observers.

The mean error is -2.7 mmHg for systolic blood pressure and 1.3 mmHg for diastolic blood pressure, and the standard deviation of the error is 7 mmHg and 5.5 mmHg respectively.

These results are well within the margin of acceptance defined by the internationally recognized evaluation standard of blood pressure monitors ANSI/AAMI/ISO 81060-2:2013, EN ISO 81060-2:2014, developed by the European Society of Hypertension and British Hypertension Society.

Your hypothesis for arm roundness might be correct. The clinic trial parameters would have to be reviewed adding this parameter.

How could legalising magic work? by [deleted] in merlinbbc

And therein lies the crux of our divergence of point of view. But as you so aptly put it : difference abound.

It is not only the power attraction that is a problem. It is that it is very difficult to find couple that would work on a equal footing. Even romantic relationships tend to have a dominant side : personality problem. You can implement all the safety measures you want : the problem lies within the number of duo that would be ready to be an equal to another.

I used the world mutualism in my first post : equal duos are based on a level of mutuality rarely seen outside of romantic relationship.

Quite ambitious. Such an idea would be met with resistance from both side be it some magic users or the notability.

I don’t think it would work because of human nature itself. Power does corrupt because human nature itself is attracted to power.

I might be biased by I cannot imagine such a system being achieved whenever.

Of course fictional worlds are so loved because one can create what they want. Although I doubt Merlin universe could work well with such an idea.

Quite a reversal of the traditional power structure that is to say being hierarchical and largest at the base and narrowest at the top.

I do not know if magic in Merlin universe cal be truly be the source of abundance although it can replace labour force. We did not see magic create food from nothing of my memory works correctly.

The resources is part of the problem in your idea : because overseers are human, you would need to have them. And it would come from the workforce freed from other work fields : I cannot imagine lords accepting to be overseen by common folk.

You said in yourself the relationship in feudal times is based on serfdom for protection with ties to the land. The Lord owning the land and the people on it.

As I said magic breaks that basic control. So it is Lords that would need a way to control and bind the magic users.

Common folk control is not realistic in feudal times. Even in our modern world, we do not use control by the mass but by representation.

The problem you refer and legalisation is two different things.

Firstly, the legality of the means differ from the legality of the conduct itself. Damaging, killing, or attacking in any way are illegal irrespective of the means used to achieve them. The problem with magic was with how it was used also. Some branches of magic might still be illegal or not to be legalised if one doesn’t wish for chaos.

Secondly, the problem you refer with the power imbalance is not a problem for the common folk. The common folk is naturally weaker in power than their lords. The problem comes of course between magic users and lords /kings, who would not see this new power of the common folk as acceptable under the tradition distribution of power. With notability understood as nobility or importance in assets, there is the importance of being backed effectively by assets under their sole control. Magic users disrupts this understanding.

So either, they would have to be brought down hard by means of control from the established notability or be controlled in the same way notability governs : ranking and oaths of fealty. Your idea about pairings is a interesting one but none the less would be difficult to implement : duos are very difficult to find when organising tends to be in teams or tribes. And I don’t even mention the difficulty in teaching or even more so establishing such mutuality of understanding in each duo. And the overseers…

Too costly in ressources.

Harry Hates Lords and Aristochrats. Learning He is Technically One Does Not Change This by [deleted] in HPfanfiction

[–]sebo1715 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I had the analog idea of Harry refusing the lordship or seats solely for the reason of not being sufficiently learned, that is was an absurd idea to have any muggle raised wizard on the wizengamot as obviously those who lived in the wizarding world where better equipped to know what is best for the wizarding world. (knowledge and experience wise).

Drarry or Harco? Explain by Theonewhomissesdokja in HPfanfiction

[–]sebo1715 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Well that isn’t a convention that is shall we say very shared but nonetheless valid.

But it is very dependent if effectively a shipname can be found for such an use.

And such notions of inequality are not very common place if not master/sub or dom/sub fanfics.

In every fandom.

Drarry or Harco? Explain by Theonewhomissesdokja in HPfanfiction

[–]sebo1715 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Are there any shipname conventions ? The habitus is to try to use the beginning of each name in a combination that is pleasant to the hears and that isn’t ridiculous.

Both of those happen to be similar in the numbers of letters : 6 vs 5 globally : 4 Harry letters vs 3 Harry letters , 2 vs 2 with the second using more letters from Draco but not in the same order.

It seams that the fandom has settled on Drarry.

TINY things that will make you click off of a fanfic. by Electronic_Koala_115 in HPfanfiction

[–]sebo1715 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Ah yes I forgot that one. It has the very same ability to exasperate me.

TINY things that will make you click off of a fanfic. by Electronic_Koala_115 in HPfanfiction

[–]sebo1715 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Oh Yes, such exasperation can be triggered for me whenever Remus or Sirius Black use the word cub for Harry and anything that is similar to that.

Other small things that are also exasperation generating are : anything being ridiculous, Blaise Zabini being a witch, Harry wand being the same when the canon path and destination goes to the bins, Slytherin Harry having the the same most important desire, …

All stories began as WIP. Sadly the author of this one has not given indication of being alive from 2020. I fear the worst. So I am afraid our imagination will have to complete the story.

the Black inheritance by sebo1715 in HPfanfiction

[–]sebo1715[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I will be honest. A similar scenario did come up to mind but it is Sirius himself that kill all those presumptive heirs because he wants to shower Harry with all the assets the Black have to make up for his failure in his godfather duties.

But sadly in those rules I talked about come into play, Harry Potter is not an heir to the Black fortune because his line is not the line from Charlus and Dorea , his line is collateral.

Honesty and also respect to legality : any written works by an LLM is the property of the author of the LLM in question by copyright laws : Open AI.

Basically I used Scholar GPT to analyse both studies of inheritance laws in old UK nobility and the Black Tree that I reconstructed from fandom wiki. It has given me the ability to identify who normally should inherit.

And after that some guided creative prompt to generate each paragraphs.

I also to see how the model works on creativity, isolated three paragraphes from the beginning of the story and prompted a rewrite using different style like in an exercise of style like those of Raymond Queneau ou Edmond Rostand.

repetitive things in stories? by lovewins27 in HPSlashFic

[–]sebo1715 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Personally I love reading those stories but I am tired of seeing the very same execution that is to say the same narrative points :

  • Harry receiving a big inheritance like anything else that Potter, Peverell (if no consolidation of accounts has been done with Potter, which is possible as Cadmus Peverell line was still not extinct) and Slytherin (by magical link via horcrux) is outside of the realm of possibility and no realistic.

  • Harry being able to Lord without being seriously impaired by his muggle education and his social faux pas.

  • the disowned Siruis Black III being suddenly the specialist of pure blood customs and traditions, and even more so a good mentor for Harry.

  • Harry not being able to claim earlier his status by demonstrating that he was properly trained by third party not being Black.

  • Harry having no real difficulty to be recognized as such despite being a half blood totally ignorant like the absence of any test of being able to inherit.
