lmfao the vamps name is phyre i jusrt cant

If you read about how it was chosen it was elected by a community poll and they mentioned they didnt really verify anything. Yeah, ridiculous thing to do, but possible for a lib that doesnt know what bellingcat is, and they later apologized take it as you want, theyre obviously libs and the other alternatives arent any better, and are probably worse

you could always host your own mail of course but that has its own issues too, you obviously cant host your own vpn so the only option is tor which can be very messy to use regularly

This is accurate, though I am actually going to explain why. These big model companies (Google, ClosedAI, etc) parasitize the open-weights/open-source community that actually makes good Loras, fine tunes, and research papers. Consumer hardware simply hasn't gotten good and cheap enough for very good fine tune training, and thats why this is all slowly petering out. In a couple of generations of consumer GPUs, which will be when we get consumer GPUs geared towards AI (re: super high VRAM counts of like 70gb+ for an affordable sub 700 usd cost), we might see another leap forward in this tech. Though I will say that this mostly pertains to LLMs, generative AI models like Stable Diffusion have a lot of tricks up their sleeves that can still be explored. Most of recent research and tweaking has been based around building a structure for the AI to build on, to sort of guide it rather than letting it take random stabs at things, in order to improve outputs. Some people have been doing things like hard coding color theory, framing a photograph, etc, and interpreting human language to trigger that hard code.

We've had statistical models like these since the 50s. Consumer hardware has always been the big materialist bottleneck, this is all powered by small research teams and hobbyist nerds. You can throw a ton of money at it and have a giant research team, but the performance you squeeze out of adding 400b more parameters to your 13b model or having a gigantic locked-down datacenter is going to be diminishing.

Also, synthetic data can be useful, people are hating on it in this thread but its a great way to reinforce good habits in the AI and interpret garbled code and speech that would otherwise confuse the AI. I sometimes feel like people just see something about 'AI bad' and upvote it and don't try to understand it, where it is useful and where it is not, and so on.

In the 2023 Bulgarian parliamentary election, the Party of the Bulgarian Communists participated in the coalition Neutral Bulgaria, which included the Bulgarian Communist Party and the far-right Attack party

what the fuck do they mean theyve grown back? are they actually thinking theyre fungal warhammer 40k orks?

i had a DM boot me from a campaign for 'being manipulative' and 'murder hoboing' after i kept killing blatantly racist nazi characters that our multicultural nation was fighting to survive genocide against. said that i didnt ever give the DM time to roleplay things (because i would gat the nazis in the head with a critfish build). maybe make less cartoonishly evil characters? why would i ever talk to a guy that kills babies

i also unknowingly joined a campaign where the dm admitted that all the goblins the players were killing were jews after i pressed him on his monologue about goblin bankers

Jaethal is bae tho, I love my hot goth evil undead wife that simps for the hot undead god lady

its fallout 4 but with a worse story, bland art direction, and even less character

also its wild that they didnt think of making vehicles like rovers and stuff to ride around planets on in their nasa punk setting. no, you gotta run for an hour to get anywhere because your oxygen depletes (that is, until you become a space wizard and get the oxygen replenishment spell, and cast it 24/7 as a necessity)

the writing is all over the place on the USSR. they have stuff like this but also mention they have actual good food and healthcare. they do also have plenty of ACAB mixed in with you fellating a president no matter what option you choose, even though johnny calls her a fascist you cant just agree with him

tbf if youre reading anything from the nusa you probably should be put in a work camp, its america but worse somehow
