   @picofarad @s8n @Nicktherat they don't work inside the wire generally. there's an electrostatic potential defined by the material and a magnetic barrier generated when the cables are powered and the electrons :agummyparty: across the surface within the barrier
   
   (i think there is some action inside the metal but a lot of energy is actually just riding the surface; its called the skin effect i think?)

     @s8n @Nicktherat a plurality of shit i do understand is maddeningly retarded.

     I can hand build an antenna to spec for any frequency and bandwidth (within reason) you could want.

     How the f does RF radiate instead of just making heat? i got no fucking clue. I've read the books. I can build circuits. I cannot *design* circuits.

     okay now explain in detail how electrons work in a wire. or a transistor. Or lightning.

     At least there's music and decent moving pictures.

     @picofarad @Nicktherat you shouldn't worry about that, people who are highly intelligent are burdened by their intelligence equally to how you may be burdened by your lack thereof so that's the least necessary audience for that kind of thing. I only use big words and complex sentences when I'm trying to say something very specific

     @picofarad @Nicktherat if you want to imagine it, think of how your life would be if you could understand everything that you can't but it was all infuriatingly retarded. That's basically how it is

     @s8n @Nicktherat chatgpt is really good at this

     when i actually want to communicate to people with degrees i use it to check i don't sound like a neanderthal

     or as george costanza said "Humans, we think so highly of ourselves we named ourselves smart twice.
     homo sapiens sapiens
     " that was on criminal minds btw that was a good episode if someone edited it down to 20 minutes

     asynchronous though (my brain, not a gpu)

     @s8n
     2022/10/25 elf A1111 sd1.5 model.bin
     2023/02/11 tom sizemore A1111 some other model.safetensors

     the rest are just what caught my eye in the output folders of various SD UI things. I really like img2img and controlnet, if forge does flux with CN and image to image... I'll buy ya a coffee.

     missed doing this stuff, actually.

     i use IRL photos a lot so i can't just dump my grids :-(

     @picofarad idk what you're working with there but I'm running a webui called forge which is a fork of automatic 1111 and I'm using a model called illustrious and several supporting tools. I've uploaded a bunch of images the past few days that I think are pretty good

     @s8n FLux.1 Dev using a sampler other than euler, with controlnet?

     Because i got SD 1.5 running on win 1.5 - flux-capable GUI suck.

     i will not CLI generate anything, I'm not a poor

     my one recommendation to anyone who wants to check out AI stuff: unless it's LLMs, do it on Linux. Windows does everything it can to make it a huge PITA because i am a child that doesn't know how to properly manage a computer, i guess.

     I have half a mind to buy a datacenter GPU and rack a machine "in town" just to have a dedicated box for myself. I have 2 gpu boxes but 1070ti and 3060ti.
     ok for smaller LLM and audio stuff but too low_vram for Stable diffusion or any decent LLM model
