OK, but if I want to put it on YT will I be able to? Or is the model that you are trying to drive traffic to your site rather than provide video generation? If so, then what is the plan (if any) to mo…

Pricing? I'd like to use something like this to do an animated version of one of my books, but I'd want to be able to add music and obviously voices. I don't need lip sync since I'…

One of the key insights presented is that "fine" in that time would more closely translate to "fee" in our current world. Basically a decent examination showing that folks were mor…

Article seems to suggest just that as the author states that he's doubtful the model will perform as well when it's scaled to general Google usage

Which feeds into Saint Motel's song "You're Nobody Til Somebody Wants You Dead" which has a bit about how the list just grows and grows until it's everyone you've ever kn…

I have a book I've written (first three parts available free at https://www.amazon.com/Summer-of-Wonders/dp/B0CV84D7GR ). Is there some way to feed this to the tool and …

Bloomberg - Had a subscription and saw the renewal coming up. Decided to cancel, but you can't do it yourself - you have to go through their service desk and of course they try five ways from Sun…

What I didn't see in this (and the couple others I've seen mentioned) is talking with more than one character in a scene, or having multiple scenes with the characters in different positions…

So it sounds like I should "keep an eye" on this space and hopefully at some time in the future give this a try. Do you have any VN examples currently just to see where it's at?
comment
I have a VN that I have wanted to complete for years. Having built and deployed using RenPY, the problem is something I wonder if Rosebud can support: 1) I'm a programmer not an artist. If I give…

Bought a Fisher Millennium Space Pen in 2000 which came with a lifetime guarantee for the Pen AND the Ink. Here it is 2024 and it still writes just fine. Have not had to get a refill yet (though not s…

The important stuff from the readme (if you're not looking to tinker with it directly): We have tested PowerInfer on the following platforms: x86-64 CPU (with AVX2 instructions) on Linux x86-64 C…

I imagine there are more than a few photographers who would appreciate your first app to make it easier to browse their collections. To the extent you ever think of marketing it.

For someone who is a bit techie, but not familiar with much past the original PyTorch, can I get an explanation of why this should matter to me? Are we at the point yet where I can give one of these L…
comment
So, since I may not be familiar with everything out there right now, what pieces do you have in mind that could possibly cover what is needed? About to retire and this sounds like a project worth putt…

I'm just waiting for the tool or toolchain where I can take a manga that I like that doesn't have an anime, and get a season or two out to watch when I feel like it rather than wait for it t…
comment
Compute on theirs is an Intel Nuc 8 (probably explains a decent part of the price). Appreciate the link to the more "hobbyist friendly" device you mentioned. I am thinking it might do well a…

Hints of "Lars and the Real Girl" in all of this.

Looking at "Fontly Color Fonts", and some of their other apps, they are mainly repackaging websites as an app. For example check out the actual website at - https://fontly.org…
comment
Honestly, after looking through the "apps" they created and what little I could find about reviews for them, I am having a hard time not feeling that Apple was in the right here. On the othe…

Is this as a heads up due to it's upcoming occultation of Betelgeuse or...?
comment
As another data point (possibly useful), we were at the La Quinta that is midway up the island but located on the beach. There's a pier just down from there that has a decent view (through binocu…

Let me introduce you to the world of PI planning where two days of every quarter are spent with approximately 100 people (developers, program managers, etc) for each line of business to plan out the n…
comment
My half baked project (more of an idea really) is a toe-clipping robot. No really, I'm serious. Like many older folks I have some mobility issues. Nothing that stops me from doing most things I n…

Presuming the remote work location has decently fast internet with very good uptime, and the distance to the local health provider who can provide quality care is reasonable. I've found that many…

I seem to recall that this is a known "side effect" of measles where it removes many immunities if you catch it.

If anyone at the Times is reading this... a case study for your consideration... I dropped my subscription to the NYT a bit more than a year ago due to just this kind of blocking silliness. I like to …
