Is this because they have full access now to the front door?

Stable Projectorz uses Unity for their app.

ComfyUI is similar to Houdini in complexity, but immensely powerful. It's a joy to use.
There are also a large amount of resources available for it on YouTube, GitHub (https://github.com/comfyanonymous/ComfyUI_examples), reddit (https://old.reddit.com/r/comfyui), CivitAI, Comfy Workflows (https://comfyworkflows.com/), and OpenArt Flow (https://openart.ai/workflows/).
I still use AUTO1111 (https://github.com/AUTOMATIC1111/stable-diffusion-webui) and the recently released and heavily modified fork of AUTO1111 called Forge (https://github.com/lllyasviel/stable-diffusion-webui-forge).

I'm a paraplegic, what are you even getting at? I'd do anything to be able to walk again.

I have a Pi 3 B you can buy off me if you're interested.
SpliffnCola | 3 years ago | on: Why You’re Angry at Netflix
I live on the same property as my parents in a separate house with separate internet connections. Their house is less than 30 feet from me. We share the same physical address. Yet according to Netflix, this would not count as family sharing because of our separate internet lines.
SpliffnCola | 3 years ago | on: Ask HN: What companies are embracing “HTML over the wire”?
Indeed it is; the UX/UI is also better compared to the low density of information with the new design.

It sure can: https://github.com/GeorgLegato/Txt2Vectorgraphics
It doesn't output color though, only B/W.
SpliffnCola | 3 years ago | on: iPhone 14 Pro camera review: A small step, a huge leap
The workflow of Darktable gets me confused compared to Lightroom/Photoshop's Adobe Camera Raw tool; there are so many options and features that it can be overwhelming. Capture ONE from my experience delivers superior RAW decoding vs. Adobe Camera Raw, but I still use ACR.
SpliffnCola | 3 years ago | on: Ask HN: How do I write a Linux driver for my 15 year old photo printer?
You mean like the OP's comment saying, "Ask yourself, are you trying to use the damn printer or you want a possibly educational rabbit hole to go down." Why are you being a contrarian when you're agreeing with them?

NiceHash is what you're looking for.

Get a seedbox and download the files over sftp from it. All your ISP will see is a large transfer, no file names or knowledge of content.
SpliffnCola | 4 years ago | on: Amazon acquires MGM for $8.5B
You can use a seedbox and then download via sftp. The seedbox is exposed and the service takes the piracy notices.
This eliminates exposing your IP from torrents and the file being downloaded.
For a site like HN, I'm really surprised at this discussion.

Nope, it'll suffer from the same lack of vision that the Linux desktop has and continues to have.

It's transcoding that is troublesome on the RPi and can be worsened as the resolution/image quality increases; Direct Play(stream) via Plex may alleviate that pain point, but your stream-playing device needs to be able to decode it directly.
My Xbox One S for example can decode most streams with Direct Play using the Plex app (or all using VLC).
Here[0] is a recent update from a Plex Team member about their knowledge of and intention to fix these issues, no timeline though.

SpliffnCola | 6 years ago | on: Ask HN: What keyboard do you use?
Corsair K70 with Cherry MX Reds; I enjoy the feel of reds but would definitely like to get a version with blues or browns as my typing style causes them to bottom out more than I’d like.
Despite what was mentioned I find the keyboard enjoyable to use.
