There will be no burst. Governments will bail them out. Socialism for the rich and capitalism for the poor.

>>107816272
Low. Whatever slow AI cards and memory the bubble is producing will not be consumer-grade, they'll be bulk shit that likely will not even be able to be repurposed. Nvidia has made cards like this before for the crypto-mining segment years ago; they didn't even have video outputs.

Update of NoobAI model with Flux2VAE if anyone wants to mess around with it.

>I'm retarded. But I have an Nvidia GPU. Can anyone explain to me how to make anime waifus... some perhaps a bit lewd... in 2026? The last time I fucked with this stuff was 2024, which may as well be ancient history by now I'm sure.

There's plenty of good SDXL models you can use that will spit out quality results. The basic process is like this:

1) Choose a model, like illustrious, animapencil, or one of the more specialized ones if you want a specific style... But even flux1 can make nice anime; you just need to prompt it carefully. Z-image turbo also works and is fast.

2) Use something like SwarmUI. Set that up and it uses comfyui as its back end so it can run pretty much any of the newest models as well as the older ones. Plenty of YT tutorial videos on how to set it up and get it running.

3) Get the best upscaler: realesrgan. There's a general use version for photographic images, and an anime-specific one that respects line art and will not distort anime-style images. The upscaler doesn't just increase resolution, it "cleans up" t he image and gives it that polished look. If you don't like that look, don't use the upscaler. It will remove fine detail/texture and sometimes you may want that.

That's pretty much it. If you have 16GB you can handle any of the SDXL models which are all around 6GB. Flux requires 12GB so you can probably squeeze it in without having to go to a quantized (compressed, lower quality) version.

what is the modern obsession with adding charging circuits to everything? everything used to have a battery that you took out to charge. now every single glowstick and whirlygig has a charger built in and youre stuck with the shitty battery soldered to it.

personally i use these. they take standard lion batteries. charge from usb, output power over usb and have 3V,5V,9V pads to solder to. if you're out you can both swap out the battery for a fresh one or plug it into usb charging. ive put it on my fpv drone tracking antenna system it powers the drone tracker and a raspberry pi i use to to convert tracking data.

for electronics big enough to fit you should use these but for small/flat stuff like laptops/phones i kinda get why theyre going with nonstandard batteries. i think something like the fairphone headphones do it well to where its not a standard battery but you can easily swap it or mod it to use any li-ion battery.
https://www.youtube.com/shorts/ASc8sa5O2ik


however most things with Li Ion will have a battery last so long that plugging it in occasionally is no issue and hotswapping batteries would not be needed. and if you do run out you can always connect a battery bank and use it while charging. this often simplifies design as you dont need parts that open up where you can put batteries in/out that can have points of failure.

>>107824952
Agreed. Honestly programming is fun and a great skill to have, but I'd go with engineering as well. I regret not studying electrical or mechanical engineering way back and opted for compsci which I didn't even finish, because I got a job in the field as a sysadmin and my career went from there. I am doing well now, but definitely regret it. Is it worth pursuing engineering in your 30s?
>>
>>107825016
I personally believe that it is worth pursuing an engineering degree AT ANY AGE and especialy worth pursuing one if you truly plan to go all the way by working in the field and aim for becoming licensed PE in that field as the ultimate goal. https://ncees.org
If said engineering field DOES NOT have a PE designation, then no it is not engineering it is fake.

These services need to increase adoption to survive, but most users can't see what the cutting edge models are capable without paying upfront

traditionally this problem is resolved by trial periods or upfront free credits. There's a huge problem with this. There's a legion of millions of thirdworlders, mostly Indians, abusing free trials and credits bleeding these services dry of compute.

I have a behind the scenes view of how bad this problem is. I know that it's costing one smaller company tens of millions of dollars, and I can extrapolate from that, that it's costing the industry billions. It's a huge problem and these companies don't know what to do. For every legitimate user free access brings in, there's ten users abusing it. Some companies are beginning to close out trial periods but their new users are falling off a cliff. They're fucked either way.

Jeets are always a liability. Even if they paid, it'd be on stolen cards (chargebacks), or they'll pay the subscription for one month using the entire villages accumulated wealth from 3 generations and then overuse the resource and actually not even make the company profit.

rust is predominantly copying from c++ in this area. Specifically the style of header only libraries, where everything is a templated function. C++ shitters invented the "unified build" where they compile their entire project as a single file, to *speed up* compilation time, because of the templated headers. Rust basically consists of taking c++ "best practices" (read braindead fucking retarded ideas) and codifies them in the compiler or build tool as the default.

You can still have a shared object in rust, you just have to use the C ABI. Which is incidentally the "best practice" of what you should be doing in C++.
