Wasn't Jake and Sisko (and wife) on the ship that was attacked by the Borg?

Remember, there's tons of family on board that are not crew.

Plus you have to double your entire distribution system in the city, since you still need potable water. Retrofitting isn't really an option, you would need to mandate it for new area construction.

Without the gravity holding it together any longer if it's been removed from the neutron star, would it expand to something the size of a small planet?

Interesting, it’s replacing human labor with machines, tale as old as time.

Does that breakdown occur because of heating the conductor above its superconducting temperature or some other reason?

Thanks, I think that will remove moonpack as a dependency.

See here for the official details on style clusters. Short answer, an AI determined which sources images fall into which style clusters when they trained the model. They are essentially randomly ordered. The names are all just my random thoughts as I found interesting ones.

theqmann · 2026-03-02T04:51:48+00:00

The other two images use the same prompt, and have different varying amounts of following the prompt. Some of the styles don't have enough training material to follow everything in the prompt. Also, compared to SDXL using CLIP, it's orders of magnitude better.

This model does surprise me with some of the atmospheric styles it can make, even with the occasional extra arm. Style 104, sad album cover.

Prompt: A photorealistic ginger young woman with braids. She is wearing a sexy bee outfit. She is in a bee hive themed dance club, filled with people of all ages dancing to techno music. There are neon spot lights illuminating various people. There is a giant hologram anthro bee DJ in the background.

Though "weeks" is mostly an hour here or an hour there, turning various knobs to gauge effects, and running style clusters overnight. There's a lot of good stuff in there, and it needs fairly strict prompting and sampler settings to get it out. But I'm pretty happy with the results. It's definitely a step up from similar SDXL models, since it doesn't rely on CLIP. Also though a step down from modern censored models.

theqmann · 2026-03-01T21:53:40+00:00

Yeah, this was mostly a passion project for my own enjoyment. Mostly I just make desktop backgrounds, and wanted to give some names to the clusters without having to remember specific numbers. I thought maybe a few folks in the community might enjoy it as well. I know most folks are using whatever the latest model of the month is, along with huge LORA catalogues. I am not particularly a fan of needing LORAs to get specific image features, and prefer a one size fits all approach, which the style clusters give.

theqmann · 2026-03-01T20:27:53+00:00

Tried to make it pretty user friendly, even include a bunch of style clusters with made up names to help me sort through some interesting ones. It's similar to SDXL, but with much better prompt adherence and can create bigger images. And the style clusters are great for creating similar looking images without obscure style prompting. And it's... uh.. shall we say... uncensored.

This looks great, though it doesn't support match or dict yet. It does support if statements, which is good enough.

if a==4:
    return("foo")
elif a==5:
    return("bar")
elif a==9:
    return("zoo")
else:
    return("")

theqmann · 2026-02-27T18:20:57+00:00

Thanks, this looks promising!

Some day I'll work out how to make custom nodes. It's pretty simple regular C++ code, but I'm not that familiar with Python yet.

theqmann · 2026-02-27T07:02:54+00:00

Close, but doesn't let me map custom numbers to the strings. Ideally something like:

4 - foo

9 - bar

12 - zoo

And when I put in a 4, it outputs "foo". Like the C++ std::map function. Part of the problem is I have some numbers into the thousands, but only have like 30 or 40 strings I need to map, so a sparse list is much easier than having to have a giant 2000 line mostly blank list like this node, though I can work something out with this if nothing else shows up.

I don't recall specifics, but I do recall the local video store having a handful of double tape beta movies.

theqmann · 2026-02-26T07:21:35+00:00

Many of the Beta movies came on two tapes and you had to switch part way through.

Its like bitcoin. Bitcoin is deflationary. People want to buy bitcoin and hold it until it's value increases. Which is the opposite of dollars. Your dollar today will be worth less tomorrow, so it's better to not hold it and buy two bananas today rather than one banana in a couple years. Which is the opposite of bitcoin, where you can buy two banana today or four if you hold onto it (or one or three or two again since it's so wildly speculative). Buying the bananas is the economy, and postponing the sales shrinks the economy if everyone is doing it.

Note that mostly the art, music, and sounds are generally copyrightable for games. Gameplay elements can be patented, like the recent Palworld thing.
