I've been really impressed with how quickly Connect has shaped up after the whole influx of new users.

Most places that have HR like this work their employees too hard for them to have time to use a ping pong table anyway, so it's really just a hollow gesture.

A bold move, cotton. Let's see if it pays off.

Yeah, I've been waiting to see Boost and Sync come out, and in the meantime Connect has matured way more quickly than I would have ever expected. I think it's top of the heap of Lemmy apps now for me.

Exactly. At first glance it can spit out some really impressive stuff, but turning that content into a coherent piece of artwork still takes imagination and skill.

I can't draw very well, but I've gotten good at compositing and image manipulation over the years. SD is amazing, but it doesn't mean that I don't spend hours and hours piecing together an image to be the way I wanted it.

The terminology is sticking around longer than the format, too! Love me some (webm/H265) gifs.

Calling out the bulkiest NVME drive I've ever seen.

I don't think I'm familiar with that, but I'd like to be.

It makes the X go faster, everyone knows that.

I feel like that will even itself out in time. With a huge influx of Redditors, comparing the services is going to be a hot topic for awhile. The communities need to settle and the people who will stay will stay. Over time, it'll be less self-referential and more original content I think.

More like Whyoming.

Woot woot fellow Minnesotan!

 
 
 

Art for a unique item one of my D&D players acquired.

 

Figured I would repost some of my images over from Reddit, just to show off and try to contribute.

I'm getting ready to run the Reavers of Harkenwold adventure for my group and I wanted to use the book cover as a login screen. Unfortunately, the best picture of the cover art I could find was pretty small and cropped in really close. I also didn't like a few things about it.

Used SD to fill in a lot of detail around the edges of the art, and to modify the person and the burning house. This was the image I started with.

I almost never get what I want with just one prompt. I do a lot of compositing many different iterations, and running the result back through SD again.
