I think that it's worse than that, more catastrophic. They've got bread and tea...but no jam.

The original idea of "NSFW" is to not show content that might be problematic for someone at work.

I personally don't have any problem with violence being visible; an employer isn't going to care, and nobody's going to care if I'm viewing a violent video in a restaurant or something. But I'm American. Maybe there are places where there are cultural differences. I would like the option to not show nudity in thumbnails and inline images, but that's not a factor for war videos. As far as I'm concerned, the community not being flagged NSFW is fine.

Ah, okay, I thought that they might have started throttling generation or something.

If I understand aright, they and ChatGPT use DALL-E 3 -- I don't really understand the relationship between Bing and ChatGPT's image generation. I see vague references to a DALL-E 4 coming out at some point online, so I assume that it's gonna get some kinda big functionality bump then.

I have been -- if you've been reading my posts -- pretty impressed by the natural-language parsing in Flux, and I would be willing to wager that the next iteration of most of the models out there is probably gonna improve on natural-language parsing.

I also see some stuff talking about improving text rendering, which would be nice.

https://old.reddit.com/r/singularity/comments/1craik9/gpt4o_is_a_huge_step_forward_for_image_generation/

I don't know whether the functionality there is shared between ChatGPT and Bing or will be or what. But that example on ChatGPT is showing both a lot of text generation (better than I'm seeing in Flux, at any rate), and what looks kinda like that natural-language description stuff.

tries it

Yeah, that's stubborn.

pokes a bit

There's this, but it's not very good.

The image is a photograph.

The body of a cow with its head replaced by a human head.

We also had a post some time back where people tried getting centaurs. Models did not like it, though you'd think that there'd be lots of models trained on fantasy images of centaurs.

I also remember someone trying to get car tires with non-black treads (not the sidewalls, but the treads). I couldn't do it either (at least at the time, haven't tried recently).

And I have had a long-running battle across multiple models to try to get images using cross-hatching shading.

I did manage to finally get engravings going under the Flux-derived NewReality, which is something that I wanted to do and had been driving me bonkers in Stable Diffusion for a long time.

The image is an illustration.

A raccoon sitting on a stool at a desk. The viewer is looking at the raccoon from behind.

On top of the desk, on the left-hand side of the desk, is a blue tray named In.

In contains a tall stack of papers.

In is labeled "In".

On top of the desk, on the right-hand side of the desk, is a red tray named Moon.

Moon contains a small stack of papers.

Moon is labeled "Moon".

Next to the desk, there is a metal garbage can labeled "Non-Moon". The garbage can is heaping high with crumpled wads of paper. There are crumpled wads of paper on the floor by the trash can.

The raccoon is holding and looking intently at a piece of paper with an anime picture of Sailor Moon on it.

Bingilator has kinda soured for me lately.

What happened to Bing?

[–] tal 12 points 2 weeks ago

he smelled of fuel and was carrying the flare gun and torch

Probably catch on fire.

I think that it's likely okay -- sorry if I worried folks. @Despair@lemmy.world just noticed that the community had been flagged NSFW:

https://lemmy.today/post/18676732/12122987

Looking at archive.org snapshots, I don't think that it was back on October 7, and I don't think that users without an account can see NSFW posts, so that'd explain why I can't see them browsing sopuli.xyz directly.

EDIT: I'd guess that you can't see the community via lemmy.today for the same reason: because you're trying to browse lemmy.today without an account, so you can't disable the NSFW filter, so you can't see the community on that server.

goes to test

Yeah, that's it. I have the NSFW filter disabled. If I log out of lemmy.today, the community shows up devoid of posts there as well; logged in, it shows it.

[–] tal 2 points 2 weeks ago* (last edited 2 weeks ago)

I'd have to go make an account on sopuli.xyz and flip off the NSFW filter to test it, but I bet that's it, as it looks like it wasn't flagged as NSFW on the last archive.org snapshot from October 7:

https://web.archive.org/web/20241007001648/https://sopuli.xyz/c/ukraine

Well, that makes me feel better.

[–] tal 3 points 2 weeks ago (2 children)

At least, I hope I pinged them. I think that using the @username@instance syntax causes a user to receive a message...

[–] tal 3 points 2 weeks ago (3 children)

Also, @QuentinCallaghan@sopuli.xyz and @Moxvallix@sopuli.xyz are the instance admins. Pinging to let them know in case there was a compromise of the instance.

@LaFinlandia@sopuli.xyz, you're maybe the heaviest poster there.

@lisko@sopuli.xyz, you're a mod.

@doo@sh.itjust.works, you're a mod.

@Burstar@sopuli.xyz, you're a mod.

Any of you guys know what's going on?

 

Low-cost carrier Ryanair on Monday reported its best-ever annual profit, as passenger and revenue growth offset sharply higher operating costs, but flagged a weaker pricing environment in the current quarter.

 

SYDNEY/PARIS, May 17 (Reuters) - French police reinforcements have started arriving in New Caledonia as part of a massive operation to regain control of the capital Noumea, the top French official in the Pacific island territory said on Friday.

The number of police and gendarmes on the French-ruled island will rise to 2,700 from 1,700 by Friday evening.

On Tuesday at Google I/O 2024, Google announced Veo, a new AI video-synthesis model that can create HD videos from text, image, or video prompts, similar to OpenAI's Sora. It can generate 1080p videos lasting over a minute and edit videos from written instructions, but it has not yet been released for broad use.
