I live across street from one of these where a restaurant used to be. I don't know enough to love or hate the idea of these buildings, but this one's a damn eyesore. The siding panels are various shades of pale grayish blue, with fucking CAUTION VEST YELLOW panels randomly sprinkled in. It's just this big plain box with tiny-ass windows and the worst color combination I've ever seen.
In my family it was variations of "Hello, Joe's whatever. Insert rhyme here."
One of my favorites was "Joe's mortuary, you stab 'em we slab 'em."
Or use ancient scripts like Phoenician or Glagolitic.
There are still 20 more letters that can be used as stand-ins. Things will get interesting if you try to go past Base 36, though.
Base 16 is typically represented with letters being used as the extra numerals, so it would end up being F+1. Problem solved.
You could probably build a Jenga tower out of those rectangular layered wafers.
Last year I bought a packet of sugar pumpkin seeds just because I thought the flowers looked nice the previous time I'd tried (and failed) to grow pumpkins. Got plenty of pumpkins out of it, saved some of the seeds, and started buying butternut squash when the pumpkins ran out. Saved the seeds from those, too, and now I've got seedlings of both popping up. I'm gonna have so much pie!
I hear they like turtles.
I second the idea that audio is a nightmare in Android. I have the AYN Odin, and I'm always muting it by accident because the lowest volume setting is still a bit louder than I want. 0-15 is nowhere near enough granularity, but the Android devs can't seem to comprehend the idea.
Accidental DisplayPort guy checking in. I didn't even know it was a thing until I bought my graphics card. It seems like I dummied my way into some good tech.
The alternative is the same genocide, plus even more of it in more places, most likely. Including right here on American soil.
I've been on a bit of a blue/orange spree recently, and I really like how this one turned out.
Process: On a whim, I downloaded this image from another Artbreeder user:
In GIMP, I duplicated the image into four layers and used Gradient Map to have a version in black/orange, white/orange. black/blue, and white/blue, and selectively erased bits of each layer until I was satisfied, ending up with this:
Finally, I fed that back into Artbreeder, messed with my prompt, added noise after a few rolls didn't go the way I wanted, and ended up with this input:
Rendered for AB's Embroidery contest. Screenshot of inputs:
For the Bob Ross, I took a previous render, loaded it into GIMP, slapped a frame over it, and cut out the corners. Then I saved it and uploaded it back into Artbreeder. The wood was a stock image of some cutting boards that I found with Artbreeder's internal search feature. I cut out what I wanted and stretched it to fit the canvas as my background.
Rolled this earlier today on Artbreeder when I was trying to make portraits of wholesome fellows in this style. Decided to share it here.
Inputs:
This image:
Prompt: steve irwin, crocodile hunter, watercolor by kentaro miura, norman rockwell, stanley artgerm, vibrant pastels, crocodiles in background.
AI: 71, Steps: 30, Guidance: 12, Seed: 33, Model: SDXL, Mode: img2img
I also rolled some Carl Sagan, Bob Ross, and Fred Rogers images.
Generated for Artbreeder's sword contest. I'm pretty happy with it, so I thought I'd share.
You're on the naughty list, and Santa craves human flesh. Rendered with SDXL on Artbreeder.
Rendered 6 days ago on Artbreeder and upscaled just moments ago.
I felt like doing some creepy eyes yesterday. SDXL on Artbreeder.
That wasn't even the first time Trek did the "catching up to a sleeper ship" plot. TOS did it earlier, and then they made a movie out of that episode.
