Wait until I debunk you by publishing these articles:

Is no always the answer to questions in headlines?

Yes but no.

How can you know the answer to questions in headlines?

No, you know.

Why is no always the answer to questions asked in headlines?

No. The answer is no, and that does not really answer this question.

No, he/she/they can’t possibly be that many. I’m one too!

The model just didn’t stop generating.

You must wait until it reaches a theory where “i” could somehow refer to some Chinese dissidents…

[…]

But again, that’s specific to that field.

[…]

But that’s getting too technical.

[…]

But still, without context, it’s hard to be precise.

Dear C-Keen.

I’m also seekin’. Seekin’ answers!

I’m curious as to where the line is drawn in mixed cases, since I’m experimenting with both pixel art painting and txt2img/img2img models, and have had thoughts of combining the two to generate extensions of my own works.

Relevant examples of unclear cases to clarify:

1. Starting from an original work as the core “seed”, outpainting the world by expanding the canvas around it, continuing the work based on that input.
2. Same as 1., then manually adding further edits after doing the txt2img outpainting.
3. Starting from own original non-generated work of art, using some style transfer to generate a much similar edition in a pixel art style.
4. Starting from own text prompt to generate some pixel art, then manually editing that.

I understand that this is about appreciating artists. Pixel art is a craft with a rich history, and it’s a dogma, which can be helpful and fun for artists to get going. Generating the works seem meaningless from that perspective, but I’d argue, nonetheless, that all of the examples above (not just any gen. pixel art) are a continuation and natural development of the craft, which has already been changing through the times. From analog embroidery through digital ages of computers and software. Should we keep insisting on crafting the traditional way, or can we use modern tools? How many colors are allowed, if we want to stick to earlier pixel art traditions here?

As I see it, all of the listed examples require a certain degree of artistic work, and couldn’t have existed without that, but use txt2img or img2img generation as tools as part of the artistic process, experience and output. One could argue that these pieces of art represent the current state of the craft, and that artists working with these tools should not be excluded from here. But on the other hand I fully respect the existence of the opinion that they should, to collect and adore only the 100% manually painted works within this community.

I find it easy to understand your decision regarding 100% generated pixel art, but the next question that rises is how will you point out the generated ones that are being posted? Except for obviously incorrect stuff like a gradient “pixel” challenging the technical limitations of real works. But, then again, what if an artist manually draws such glitches by faking a lower resolution than the actual image file and breaking it, shouldn’t that be allowed?

Please don’t get me wrong. I’m not here to oppose any decisions or defy one ruling over another. I just think these questions are interesting to ask. Have you thought of how to actually enforce this? If you don’t want 100% generated works here, how will you make sure to find those that are, and only those? Or if you want absolutely 0% generated pixels in here, how will you find the ones with any at all, like in the five examples I provided? The community hivemind? How to avoid false accusations?

I’m looking forward to hear your thoughts, whatever they are. Best regards.

That was Góògle

Like a fridge or kitchen appliance that rejects foods from your local store, your neighbours’ or your own produce… Pretty useless.

I just tried this on an Ultra.cc seedbox with yt-dlp installed, and the Fintube plugin configured to the right path for that, yet when I go to Dashboard > Fintube and click the Submit button to add a video to the download, nothing happens. Can’t figure out what’s wrong.

Maybe Jellyfin doesn’t have the necessary write permissions to write the file to that folder, but I’m not quite sure how to change those on such a seedbox, if that’s the case.

Any experience with this to share? Would the Submit button usually lead to a different view, or does it just stay on that video submission screen while the download happens silently in the background? The lack of action I experience when clicking it feels a bit awkward…

I thought it was supposed to be an infinite amount of monkeys, since it’s known as “infinite monkey theorem”, but apparently, according to Wikipedia,

The infinite monkey theorem states that a monkey hitting keys at random on a typewriter keyboard for an infinite amount of time will almost surely type any given text, including the complete works of William Shakespeare. […]

[…] can be generalized to state that any sequence of events that has a non-zero probability of happening will almost certainly occur an infinite number of times, given an infinite amount of time or a universe that is infinite in size.

However, I think, as long as either the timeframe or monkey amount is infinite, it should lead to the same results. So, why even limit one of them on this theoretical level after all?

The linked study even seems to limit both, so they’re not quite investigating the actual classic theorem of one monkey with infinite time, it seems.

Ok. The fact that you prefer it (probably because the thieve is mostly kind and generous to you) does not change the reality that it very much is theft from all those who might not agree with your societal preferences, and who did never consent to this.

Since you (or any majority in society) naturally don’t have the right to forcefully take other people’s money (or property) without their consent, it’s impossible to forward that right to the state (or any person) acting on your behalf. It does not matter how good of a deal it is to you or anyone else. That’s why it can logically be described as theft when a state collects taxes using violent force as a threat to anyone who won’t pay.

Right, most animals can only zoo!

I guess that’s the big game …

You have the option to spoof/fake/mock it manually with an app. This one, it seems, even has some available add-ons for mocking UnifiedNlp data and more…)

Mock my GPS (mock the GPS and Network location providers) https://f-droid.org/packages/com.github.warren_bank.mock_location/

Mock my GPS UnifiedNlp Backend (mock the GPS and Network location providers) https://f-droid.org/packages/com.github.warren_bank.mock_location.service.microg_nlp_backend/

Mock Silently (mock the GPS and Network location providers) https://f-droid.org/packages/com.github.warren_bank.mock_location.silently/

Possibly you’ll have to enable dev options and set the location spoofing app in there. At least, I remember seeing the option in there, but that was years ago.

Just curious – which app is that? Seemingly not Eternity, as I’m using that, and you do not appear purple in here, but I’m always interested in exploring alternatives to the apps I’m using.

I like my internet like i like my coffee.

Remember to turn off their sunlight too!

And while we’re at it, let’s cut the wind off at their property as well, so they can’t generate any local wind power!

And definitely take away their fruits and zinc and copper, so they can’t build their own massive multi-lemon batteries, which they will otherwise rapidly upscale by growing even more lemons, using the same array of lemon-powered LEDs that also grew that weed, all in an infinite loop of lemon kush! We really can’t let that happen.

Or they received a USB cable, which they later used to transfer pirated files, in an envelope… Remove their mailbox! (Or force every postal service person to ignore it…)
