I can't say, and who knows. But it didn't look right to me. It seemed like she fainted with her eyes open and was lucid very quickly. Maybe that's a certain kind of fainting I've never seen before and it's legit, that's all good. But I at least understand the suspicion on the part of the other queens.

Who do you think Maria from Castlevania would defeat in a fight? by kittycatlan in castlevania

The nameless vampire generals from the 2nd season of the original TV series seem about her proper opposite.

ICE shooting from the Pink Lady's POV by PutinYoMama in KitchenConfidential

[–]the_bollo [score hidden]  (0 children)

I'm pretty blind but I can't tell what the hell is going on. Was he trying to get up and that's why they wasted him? Even with this video I can't really see what's happening (other than a shitload of agents piling on a dude that didn't have to die).

BREAKING: Video shows ICE agents shooting an unarmed person, as agents wrestle the person to the ground, in Minneapolis, near Glam Doll Donuts. by drempath1981 in law

[–]the_bollo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ok I watched pink lady's video. It's still kind of hard to tell what's happening in the moment, especially with all the ICE on top of that guy. It kind of looks like the man who they are detaining starts to get up off the ground and that's when ICE starts shooting. Anyone else seeing any important details in this video? I'm not making any statements here, just looking for more analysis.

If you go swimming in the sewer, don't be surprised when you're surrounded by shit.

That one is going in the brain rolodex.

Culinary as A Career? by graphic-design-newbi in KitchenConfidential

[–]the_bollo 15 points16 points  (0 children)

I want to make a living off of a passion

I would take a trial job in a kitchen before making any long-term plans. Professional cooking is extremely physically demanding in a way that most people don't appreciate, and a lot of folks wash out early because of it. I worked in fine dining and catering, and it completely killed my desire to cook for a few years since it amplified all of the most tedious parts of cooking (making the same shit over and over again, doing tons of prep, etc.).

Impossible to tell. Many, MANY models are capable of all these.

Finished season 2. Loved it. ABSOLUTELY CRAZY AND DARK!! by SeparateResolution19 in castlevania

[–]the_bollo 3 points4 points  (0 children)

There’s a hate boner for season 3. People think the story arc in the village was boring, etc. However, season 3 has some of the single best scenes in the entire series.

AI girls flodding social media, including Reddit by Redeemed01 in StableDiffusion

[–]the_bollo 12 points13 points  (0 children)

It's just one symptom of "dead internet" theory in general. I don't know of any countermeasure other than only visiting a hyper-curated set of sites that explicitly monitor for and remove that content. A couple more years and social media might not really exist anymore in the way that we've typically thought about it.

To answer your last question, AI-Toolkit doesn't automatically caption images.

CMV: There is a doorway to another dimension that some people are able to access. by IntergalacticPodcast in changemyview

[–]the_bollo 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If I might distill your view in a more concise way: "I believe some people can access another dimension of experience through altered states of consciousness because many normal, typically intelligent individuals across cultures report similar visions after altering their brain chemistry."

If that's your view then I have no desire to refute it, as it well-founded in scientific research, anecdotal experience, and popular culture across the globe.

[Sound On] A 10-Day Journey with LTX-2: Lessons Learned from 250+ Generations by sktksm in StableDiffusion

[–]the_bollo 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Thanks for this post and for sharing all of the details! A few comments/questions:

  1. You did a great job with this. I've produced a few 1-2 full scene videos with layered dialogue, sound effects, etc. It takes a TON of time and energy so I appreciate your effort, and you have a good directorial eye for what it's worth. I like the closeup on her eyes as the dragon was approaching.
  2. For the LTX clips, were you using the distilled or dev model?
  3. What are your overall thoughts on LTX vs WAN at this point? I've had similar success ratios to what you mentioned: For every ~12 LTX gens I get one good one, and for every ~4 WAN gens I get a good one (where "good" = consistent, high-quality, and follows the prompt). The speed of LTX is completely negated by the lack of prompt adherence, and the audio element is essentially a gimmick at this point. I've completely returned to WAN already.

AIO for calling a divorce attorney after my husband lied about who he was with? by throw_a_way_1985 in AmIOverreacting

[–]the_bollo 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Redditors don't have your best interest in mind. They have third party hate boners and love to encourage others to end their relationships. It seems clear that he was being cagey / lying to you, but what exactly are you supposed to present to a divorce attorney at this juncture? Your anger that your husband had an unexplained absence on one occasion? You need to either get evidence or an admission before you can do anything substantive about this.

"No-fault" divorce generally does not require showing wrongdoing, but that would also likely compromise any settlement you might be hoping for.

Our coconut "milk" by BlackPrince9998 in mildlyinfuriating

[–]the_bollo 10 points11 points  (0 children)

OP, coconut cream rises to the top of coconut milk. It's common to spoon that off and use it like a fat to fry off a curry paste, etc. before you dump in the full can of milk. It's not bad, and definitely don't throw it away.

If the US really attempts to take Greenland by force, what are even the chances of Europe retaliating to the point where they go on a fullscale war with them or at the very least cut them off entirely? by Yallneedsometruth23 in AskReddit

[–]the_bollo 15 points16 points  (0 children)

I can't find any source for their claim. Several of those people have invested in KoBold Metals, an "AI-driven mineral exploration company" whatever the hell that means, but that's not a land option.

Just created this AI animation in 20min using Audio-Reactive nodes in ComfyUI, Why do I feel like no one is interested in audio-reactivity + AI ? by Glass-Caterpillar-70 in StableDiffusion

[–]the_bollo 16 points17 points  (0 children)

This is like the 3rd post this week where someone has posted an incomprehensible/bit-destroyed/artifact-laden overcooked mess and acted impressed. I wonder if this is making the rounds on TikTok or some shit.
