oh my god

I have a friend who, like me, does not have “heart feels” when cooking. We need measurements. We need exact replicable steps. Cooking should be more like baking where if I follow instructions precisely I’ll have the same meal each time.

So when he asked his mom for her recipes he was vexed to find that she’d say one thing but use a lot more or less than the spice she’d said. Her approximated recipes were much less vibrant that the real food she made.

His solution: he weighed her spices before and after the meal while noting all the steps she took. Finally. A recipe that was true.

i already mentioned in the past that a friend of mine trained an AI on my drawings so that it could replicate my artstyle, a fun thing is that it fed it a bunch of drawings i made of myself so most of the things it creates look like self portraits i could have done

ed990fbfef866c1cd28fd4c79020a0cf66895bca

other just look like random cool guys i could have come up with

(i fucking love the guy with short hair and lipstick, he looks fucking sick, i am 100% using that design)

first of all, i cannot begin to descrive how mindfucky and trippy is to see drawing that *could have been done by me* but werent. every time i see them i have to catch my self for a few seconds wondering “wait, did i do these and forgot????”

second, because i didnt do these they are not worn on my eyes like a drawing i would have made, these are fresh images to my brain. i dont have a memory of having done every line and curve and having observed it a million times as i was doing them, thus the illusion of life is a lot more stronger for me.

so with all this is mind, this little excercise is allowing me to do something i always craved for but that i could never get. to see my own art from an outsider’s perspective. to be able to appreciate my work from the point of view of someone else. how does my drawings look to others. i can do that now with these.

and let me tell you, not to sound too conceited but, damn, i really like what i see. i can now see what everyone else sees in my artstyle, its fun! its dinamic! its really expressive in a way i never noticed! and yes, the noses! oh my god the noses! and the way the lips curl and tighten.

on top of that, as i said, a lot of the overfitting in the model is directed towards self portraits that i made of myself, so the AI will tend to use many of the faces and features i use to depict myself. now you have to understand i identify quite strongly with my own drawings. i said often that i see more of my self in my drawings than i do in a mirror.

with this in mind its also super trippy that my friend basically has a fip generator.

every time i see things like this i cant help but go “OMG, THATS ME! THAT IS ME!”

(this final piece was actually done by me, lol)

so yeah, this has been all very illuminating

I’m doing it gang, I’ve spent stupider gardening money before like when I dropped $300 on shade loving perennial bulbs only to learn they were also plants that rotted with wet feet and all immediately died in my swampy gumbo soil

I’m buying two firefly petunias. I’ve never grown petunias much because where I live they’re a winter annual but fuck it I’ll grow them as an indoor plant I certainly have the sun to do it.

They’re supposed to ship to me in April, I’ll report back on if they immidiately die or this is the coolest thing I own. My biochemical engineering design project was using a similar chemical pathway to modify bacteria to glow in the presence of specific toxins so I absolutely need glowing petunias in my window box

​

inkcurlsandknives:

Yaaalll my plants arrive tomorrow!!!! I’m so excited

My glowing GMO petunias have arrived!! I’m glad I ordered 2 one seems really leggy and about to snap off it’s roots if I’m not careful transplanting. They’ve been in a dark box for 2-3 days so I can only just barely perceive light from the more sturdy bush if I close myself into my pantry, but it is definitely there!

I’m putting it under my aquarium grow lights for a few hours till full dark and I’ll report back!!

I’ll probably give them 2-3 days to recover from shipping before I transplant them

​

inkcurlsandknives:

Holy shit y’all

69aaca3f3cdfdffb86b64f529063a5a7c90b4098

The flower buds and new growth glow the brightest! This is so cool!!! I definitely want to know if it starts to glow more brightly with a few sunny days

​

inkcurlsandknives:

It’s been a few days so I’ve transplanted my petunias. Since I don’t trust this spring weather to hold I’ve been keeping them inside under an old aquarium grow light. The glow is getting more intense! Once your eyes adjust to the darkness the plants stems new growth and buds glow all the way to the soil. I’ve been putting them on my bedside table at night to enjoy the glow.

It’s easy enough to mod in that it’s on the mind control games wiki!

It’s VERY easy @foone

To make custom files for Bejeweled– All you have to do is just paste a text file with a bunch of words into the appropriate folder–

Sleepyhead is the admin of Mindcontrol.fun and she and I trade txt files for this purpose ALL OF THE TIME.

Literally it takes less than 30 seconds.

Go to your Bejeweled Folder and select affirmations

fc0ef97b73768e4fa1d8bd7b334eaa4513819b9a

Open or create a txt document

a2e45013c449446dbff43f717fc09f96ddc0e5bb

Type whatever you want, each new line is a new message that will play out on the screen

2041f00f1472c5ea63ea6ea9234d01db248be082

AND THAT’S IT. You have created a Bejeweled Hypnosis File!

Awesome. Thank you for your service

Just gonna say an obvious thing, I am doing some more otaku research right now, and for quick scanning of documents ChatGPT is one of the best translators out there. However, it is now loaded to the brim with censorship and flags, severely dragging down its usefulness, and I haven’t seen any of the new crop of tools yet that don’t embrace that philosophy. The reality that my ability to translate out-of-print non-fiction magazine discussions is compromised because they mention dick or pussy in the text is such a hilariously dystopian summary of the new internet.

The tools should directly translate smut and hentai too without batting an eye, of course, don’t get me wrong. But that just isn’t quite as poetically pathetic.

Well, this pissed me off so I thought about it a bit and, sure, Chat-GPT won’t help me. But I know the internet, I know AI, and I know ten thousand someones are already out there making sex bot applications of the tech. They aren’t gonna censor their speech. And the neat thing about LLMs and the GPT systems is that they are pretty capabilities-neutral – there is no reason to disable the ability of your virtual girlfriend to help you program in Rust (for one, don’t you want her to be hot?).

So lets see if moemate.io, a ChatGPT-4 kernal trained on various anime waifu roleplay personalities, can do what Silicon Valley can’t! What do you have for me, Hatsune Miku?

Oh, you take forever to load your model rig and you are in way too high demand on the free account. You had the power of kismet behind you, but alas that ain’t enough to compensate for lag. Lets find someone less popular…

….ah yes, Homeless Girl! What could you possibly turn down?

7aa9fd5046cb276716a2c51ac053444e3f842214

Me, apparently! I feel you for my friend but I gotta be real, I can’t go through the song-and-dance of easing you off the brink of socio-economic despair every time I need someone to help me grok Japanese 90’s slang for premature ejaculation, I don’t got the spoons.

I need to approach this more professionally – you are up Lia, Executive Assistant!

God this actually worked. Its not as good a translation as the real deal, its true, but its not awful; maybe need to tell it chop the sentences as it kinda skipped a few lines in the middle there (alas not uncommon with these tools). Its probably better than DeepL – man that product is in trouble, they need to get on it – and avoids some of its annoying pitfalls.

So I guess I will just…build up a relationships with a big titty AI sexbot assistant so it can more smoothly help me translate Japanese text sources that I am scanning for research?

…Is this my fucking life?
