Republicans baffled after Trump picks ‘reckless’ Gaetz for attorney general
  • Depends on how long Big Mac Don lives. Republicans first got elected when the democratic party split into 3 different branches with 3 different presidential candidates. I could see something like that happening in the near future with the republicans.

  • Gen Z Won’t Save Us
  • Liberals solve the problems that cause voters to die. Conservatives push for the status quo, even if the status quo kills the voters. The more deaths, the more people move towards the liberals. What, right now, is killing Gen Z?

    Gen Z males have been raised in this "men need to be the alpha dog - don't let anyone talk down to you - don't respect anyone" mindset throughout high school. Then, when they get out into the real world, that mindset lead them to flunk out of college, not hold down a job, and not be able to get/keep a girlfriend. With no education/money/girlfriend's house and housing prices through the roof, they have to move back in with there parents who:

    A) Are liberal and thus blame it on there attitude, which makes them even more conservative

    B) Are conservative and blame it on trans-mexican-CRT-cowfarts, which makes them bond more with their parents.

    How do we fix this?

  • AI Expert Warns Crash Is Imminent As AI Improvements Hit Brick Wall
  • The hype should go the other way. Instead of bigger and bigger models that do more and more - have smaller models that are just as effective. Get them onto personal computers; get them onto phones; get them onto Arduino minis that cost $20 - and then have those models be as good as the big LLMs and Image gen programs.

  • maga neighbour came over and lost morale
  • "So, are you going to pay out of pocket for college now?"

    "No, I'm getting student loans."

    "Do you know what department in the federal government does student loans? The department of education, which Trump is going to get rid of."

    "Damn it!"

  • Minimal Voting Data of 2020 and 2024 US presidential election.
  • I can believe that Trump won on the backs of "people voting only for Trump and no one else on the ballot", since Trump was running far ahead of all the other republican candidates. Means once Trump dies of old age, there will be a power vacuum. Remember, democrats have run two women and Biden in the decade span that republicans have only ran Trump.

  • BI: AOC asked voters why they backed her candidacy and Trump's reelection. They said the economy and Gaza.
  • "We can't push policies that cause deflation! That will cause people to put off buying things and cause a economic recession, which will cause more deflation leading to a neverending ending spiral! Lets just hold inflation to 2% per year and hope people's jobs eventually given them raises."

    We have been putting off buying things for years! Houses, cars, cloths, food - if the price goes down, no one will go 'oh, I'm going to wait a bit longer and see if it goes down more'. No, we will buy like crazy! Every administration that ruled over this inflation spike - be them left wing or right wing - has seen their electoral chances tumble. But god forbid we see even a hint of deflation.

  • It is time that we push the Democratic Party left.
  • It's time the democrats have a primary where the winner isn't preordained. Even with Obama, Hillary was "preordained" the winner in 2008, only to have everyone be surprised that an electable candidate got nominated. Same thing happened with Bill Clinton in '92, where the "preordained" candidate dropped out (ironically due to an affair) and Bill Clinton took his place. Come to think of it, that is how Obama got his senate seat. Someone cheated on 7 of 9 and suddenly Illinois has a black senator.

    Anyways, just let us vote.

  • Republicans admit they plan to implement Project 2025
  • Either they run into the filibuster in the senate and it stops most of this, or we finally do away with the filibuster and when the democrats come in to clean up after 2/4 years of disaster, we don't have the filibuster stopping all the good ideas the democrats are suppose to support.

  • Kamala Harris suddenly becomes favorite to win in top election forecast
  • In 2016, Trump needed to win three states that were coin flips to win the race. With that, pollsters said he had a 1 in 8 chance. Trump took those coins, glued them together (the states had correlated outcomes) and then flipped the 3-coins-glued-together and got all three to land heads. So instead of a 1 in 8, it was a 1 in 2.

  • 3D Turn Test

    Gave up on ICON/PaMir/PiFu/Eva3D ever working on my computer and tried to make it work on my own.

    Workflow: Stable diffusion, Automatic1111. -Text2Img something that your model know the back and front of with a prompt. -Take image, feed into Depth map script, output Left/Right stereogram -Cut Stereogram into two pieces, feed either left or right into img2img with same prompt, low but non-zero de-noising, and depth map script again. Repeat on same side.

    Still need to play with the settings (de-noising and depth shift), up the resolution, change the prompt a bit while rotating. Hope someone else has better luck than I did. Anyone have a better workflow?
