This is what I use. Once you get it working, it's a great setup. I have it running on my mini HTPC under the hood, and it really doesn't use much in the way of resources.
It has a webui that I can use to search and add torrents, and you can choose an alternate UI for the page if you want (I used VueTorrent, it looks better on mobile).
And, like others have said, you can bind it so that if your VPN disconnects, torrents won't just keep running in the background.
Worried that AI is going to overthrow humankind? Cripple it by making it run off a mechanical hard drive!
Oh God, if anything they're even worse. Same page, friend.
Housing costs are such a racket.
I'm inclined to agree. Lower bandwidth might make some tasks take longer, but you can still accomplish them if you're patient. When you're out of RAM, you're out of RAM.
I feel like part of the insult is also not just with this particular company, but with the industry in general. I worked on the sound side as both production and post, and the amounts that places are willing to pay these engineer roles always seems to be insulting.
But either you take it or leave it, because there's someone else out there who is desperate enough to work for what they offer. Maybe this isn't the same across the pond, but it's sure been my experience here.
A bit somewhere gets flipped from 0 to 1, and the ridiculously complicated program that's designed to output natural language text says something unexpected.
I know it seems really creepy, but I don't personally believe there's any real sentience or intention behind it. Stories about machines and computers saying stuff like this and taking over the world are probably in Gemini's training data somewhere.
Image removal and AI tools have an overlap, for sure. RemBG is pretty effective, which runs in many of the environments with Stable Diffusion. Bria is a recent improved model for RemBG, which I've had some good success with. It's not perfect, but it cuts out a lot of the work.
Krita is A+.
Crazy Train?
I love those x360s. I have a G5 and it's surprisingly capable of handling somewhat intense tasks.
Playing in person, I made a lot of papercraft maps and items to get a very 3D feeling on the cheap. It was a lot of work, but my players loved it.
My current game is fully remote, and I'm finding I like creating digital stuff for Foundry even more than I liked papercraft. For non-combat stuff I set up splash screens with a piece of art showing the location, and then pop-up insert images with portraits of NPCs they meet. When it comes to combat, there are lots of really quality battlemap creators out there, with a lot of free options.
I don't know how anyone lives without it.
I reinstall and okay through it again every several years. Lately No Man's Sky has been scratching some of that itch for me, though.
I put all my praise on the abacus.
Honestly, I've found that for non tech-savvy people making any sort of major change results in confusion and frustration. Unless there's a reason that you're wanting them to switch at this particular point in time, and unless the impetus for the change is coming from them...just leave it, don't mess with a setup they're comfortable with.
My philosophy is that slsk is for the downloads, not the conversation.
Hello yes I would like 32 aethers please
