>>108703611thanks!
already unblessed
>>108703312your piss gen doesnt stand a chance>>108703354dont worry about it, this is just a reality check for localkeks who think they can gen better than api models
Continuing the GPU buying discussion, how do you walk into a local store and drop 1k dollars on a GPU without feeling embarrassed, knowing full well that both the salesperson selling you the card and the tech installing it are suspicious (and rightfully so) that anyone buying a card of that caliber is obviously an AI gooner?
I don't understand why anons like >>108703621 don't simply close the tab if they do not like this thread. What causes this?
>>108703621post an ass picture that is not covered, wait you can't
so how does it feel for ldg to live rent free in your mind? you wait on the edge of your seat for a new thread to be baked so you can immediately start trolling very curious indeed
>>108703641>What causes this?they want atention and get plenty here
>>108703646censorship status?
rofl who set him off today
It is pretty crazy that LDG is so popular many feel the need to raid
>work 8 hours>arrive home>now I have to spend 4 hours tagging datasets to leave the lora training running tomorrow while workingI should have just subscribed to NovelAI, I feel like a slave
comfy gf posted on instagram again?
>>108703660hes been seething ever since the comfy announcement turned out to be nothing for four days straight hes been trolling here for some reason
>>108703646>power.>scale.>quality......>no gpu cry.your own gen has betrayed you.
so this anima thing is the same old anime but without all the cool sdxl loras? i suppose the meme words make up for that
>>108703684That's how it goes with meta changing models. First time?
there is some correlation between the taste for generic asian girls and being stupid
>>108703616you made me update Comfy and now it looks totally different. Still works though.
>>108703641no need to close any tabs im enjoying the thread, are you?
whatever helps you sleep at night i guess
>>108703643can you do this?https://turbo.cr/v/YwMqzae6fC6Hk
>>108703751theyre gunna report this TJD
>>108703684did you read the huggingface repo to understand the improvements?
>>108703772i cannot read. i am a ldg regular
best way to get into trying anima?
>>108703780download the model and prompt your image.
>>108703780downloaddo hello asuka
>>108703753yeah I can lol, I can do anything with a local uncensored model, with WAN (and VACE) and LTX now its easier, even major porn producers don't care about seedanceAPI cucks have to go several hoops and skecthy methods just to generate some softcore crap lmao, and on top of all they have to pay credits, its pathetic
>>108703780Find an image you like on Civitai with an embedded workflow. Test to make sure you generate the same image using the same seed.Play with it from there by adjusting prompt/etc.
>>108703786>>108703789but which one? official? And doesn't it need some special workflow?
>>108703791i havent fapped to real porn in probably a year. whats the point when i can gen better stuff
So what UI works for Anima?Am I forced to use Comfy or are there any UIs similar to A111 that works? The name "Comfy" has to be ironic because it's so extremely inconvenient to do anything in it
>>108703791why are you still replying to the obvious troll
Helo newfrens! :3
>>108703791okay then do it so we can compare your gens against seedance 2
>>108703798comfyui has a really basic workflow available in their templates. good for getting started.
>>108703839oh, that's neat
>>108703814forge neo
>>108703814Forge neo, swarmui, comfyui
>>108703946>>108703898got any example pictures I can copy on forge? I couldn't get it to work properly and went to suffer with 'comfy'
>>108703603>no muscle women in the collegeI spitS S S S S S huak S>>108703708I'mLOCKEDOCKEDINN
>>108703831If you pay me yeah, I don't care about wasting time just to prove something to an API cuck
>>108703966bro I know zit can do better than this
>>108703810Real porn is super low budget, and the main customers are borderline retarded, they can't actually include anything slightly confusing. That's the reason the roles are extremely simplistic, it's not just that the women are retards, it's that the guys buying it are also retarded. They should get married and have retarded babies.
>>108703985Your card died and you're api coping.
>>108704004I only watch porn for the story, though.
The reason I use local is to try to prevent "local news anchor" face.
>>108704014I'm not an apinigger for one. Don't get butthurt over a simple criticism. I've seen much better zit gens than this here. This looks like base sdxl.
>>108704015The firefighter never gets to the fire, in case you never finished it.
>>108703975no ones going to pay shit for your slopsome boomer at naughty america saw seedance 2 and thinks that quality can be done locally (it cant) as soon as they realize how far behind local actually is, theyll drop the project
>>108704023You're just a random retard, and unfortunately computers are cheap.
>>108704028>no ones going to pay shit for your slopoh but people do
>>108704028You should pay to view>>108703966
>>108704028>theyll drop the projectjust like the dropped vhs and dvd. >BUT BETAMAX IS BETTER!lel
Local ai enthusiasts produce superior images to chat gpt, nano banana, midjourney, and the rest. The reason is that art direction is still a human dominated field.
>>108704044Coom?
>Analyzing image. Image will not be visible to other people while analysis is in progress.HURRY THE FUCK UP
API cucks are really cucks after all, they just like seeing themselves get fucked by other people
>>108703966
>>108704105This has got to be the apijeet trolling with shit ass local gens
Fuck it, uploaded
>>108703621>suspiciousRetard api feet still deepthroating Sam's Cuckman
mfw api cuck
>>108704162basedfuck julien
>>108703839it works, but it's slow and my first prompts didn't come out that nice. Gotta learn how to use this I guess.
>>108704178For this reason, I have a zitfeet masked zit detailer lmao
API wanAPI won
>>108704044me too bro, it rocks to get real money from real websites
>>108703646Use case. Catalog and menu... Because no one likes those generic comic
why don't we rename the general to be more inclusive and then the bickering can end
>more inclusive than LOCAL DIFFUSION GENERALNo.
>>108704225quite ironic you paid money to generate an image of you getting paid, truly pathetic
I need to update my setup. I've been running illustrious model(s) for last several months, doing anime and adjacent (cartoon) stuff. RT3060 12GB, 32GB RAM on Win11 system. Is Anima what I should move to now? Prefer stable stuff, once I set up I tend to leave things that way for quite awhile.
>>108704283>Is Anima what I should move to now?no, its not finished training and not robust, we are still stuck with sdxl
>>108704044which platform is that?
>>108704269youre brown, shut up
>>108704269https://desuarchive.org/g/thread/108703603/#q108704249close one amigo, enjoy the pesos and, heck, treat yourself to a taco sometime
Localkeks are an embarrassment
omg.....
>>108703621>>108704178Just for zitfet, I think most women would like a guy who has access to local.
>>108704332I forgot "resize to input" lmao
anima iz pozzled by the chinese, the model is censored
>>108704353>the model is censoredwhy can it make fisted shotas then?
>>108704318>>108704321seethe api cuck
>>108704358yes, I'm trying to put a hot cosplayer with mao zedong with different tags, and is not working
>>108704332Could do some more work, this is fine.I have a decent wf now :^)
>>108704365Why on earth would mao zedong be in any anime model training set?
>>108704360
>>108704373anima is filled with chinese slop from weibo, there should be something
>>108704283If you are not overly reliant on shitmixes then you should switch
>>108704401>anima is filled with chinese slop from weibosource?
>>108704360flying to all these different countries with your boatloads of AI cash from <unknown profitable slopsite> just to prove a point... I kneel. Do you have a Patreon, Substack, or Premium Discord I can join to get your secret tips and tricks to making money with AI in 2026 (Real!)?
>>108704184btw ^ is anima + zit & zitfeet. It's very close to perfect, ie it's within the range where if I needed to spend and hour I could perfect it.That's my standard. 1 hour of work remains, that's a good gen. I stop there.
>>108704437you can get random gens with weibo watermarks
>>108703647
@comfyanonymousI am bored of GPT-Image-2, can you tell us when the next Seedream releases? v4 was good but v4.5/5 sucked. Maybe some Nano Banana 3 previews?
>>108704460>ai influencershello saarthe api cuck is fuming, can you recreate this image? or these characters are copyright protected for your safety?
>>108704546ai influencers are the peak of the api mountain. kind of fucked up that the api bar is that low, but it is what it is.
>saar i make big ai money saar>look at my bank account saarhave localkeks always been this pathetic?
>>108704576>ai influencers are the peak of the api mountain.kek, truth
The jannitor trash is not doing their work, the schizo SaaS jew is seething
>>108704620don't tease him, he will start posing post gens of 1girls showing their feet and slight cleavage
>>108704651enough talk, lets see your gens
>>108704620the api scene is dead and everyone knows it. there is a reason openai went all in on a model for memes, serious people want control. closed models are the antithesis of creativity.
SaaS really got localkeks and API enjoyers arguing against each other when they have complete non-guardrail access that's trained on everything, copyright, likeness, you name it that mogs both options.
api is so dead that all of alibaba abandoned local for it. quick someone tell comfy to delete the api nodes now that saas is dead and local is booming with amazing new models like ernie that everyone is using
>>108704665the complete opposite is happeningFACT: comfy has secured funding to develop more api nodes FACT: more users are being banned from civitai for posting problematic lorasFACT: china has fully abandoned localkeks after using them as a launching padFACT: ai regulation is becoming increasingly stricter
having models downloaded on my computer really makes a nigger upset doesn't it
>>108704162Pretty good anon! Some feedback if you don't mind. Did you use an artist tag? It would have been cool if there was a style tag for it, it might have given more control over mixing it with other styles (it's what tdrussell recommends anyway). It also feels a little overbaked in some areas, I find it really wants to put earrings on women and turn their hair red, I've had best results at like 0.8 strength. Also for some reason characters will often times be missing their bottom lip when frowning. If you ever do retrain maybe mix in other characters and stuff? Just generic random people that aren't the main characters so it doesn't focus so much on their features. Still a lot of fun to play with.
>>108704713>FACT: comfy has secured funding to develop more api nodesgood, the last time they got funded they dumped a bunch of money into anima(a local model)>FACT: more users are being banned from civitai for posting problematic lorasthat is a privately owned website(not local) and they are free to ban users that break their terms of service>FACT: china has fully abandoned localkeks after using them as a launching padthere are dozens of open weight models released every month>FACT: ai regulation is becoming increasingly stricterand that will suck for people who have to abide by stricter and stricter terms of service to use closed weight models that are offered as a service
>>108704524Off topic
>>108704750I was mostly going for characters more than style. It is a character pack but yeah if I trained it for style it would be an entirely different lora. I might do that but i'm going to have to make a smaller/selective dataset of screencaps rather than what I'm doing now which is a lot of NSFW depictions of the main characters drawn by fans in varying art styles.
what are the general tips to improve klein 9b?
>The ruskie who developed A1111 when the entire thing first hit is probably dying in the russo ukraine war>its branches (Forge and Reforge) are stagnant or dead>ComfyUI is getting all the cool shit like new extensions and model compat.Alright anyone got a guide for this shit. I gotta learn this dogwater UI just to keep up now huh.
>>108699771>>108700035Forgot to mention I'm also using this custom trained VAEhttps://huggingface.co/scragnog/Ace-Step-1.5-ScragVAEIt improves gens.
>>108704162Where do we get it?>>108704805When I did the swap I used no guides and it worked out for me. It is a step up but it is also worth it, shame that the UI has gotten worse with time though
>>108704828https://civitai.com/models/2580709/american-guy-seth-macfarlane-character-pack?modelVersionId=2899285
>>108704771That makes sense. It's still great for style mixing just gotta play with a little. I always like playing around with established characters in new styles. Thanks!
