If you could go back in time and do, or bring, one thing to mess up the timeline what would it be? in c/[email protected]

@JeffKerman1999 bring some plans for the printing press and some plans to mass produce paper too. Back in the ancient times one sheet of paper was about $30 in todays money. A whole book would be the equivalant of tens of thousands of dollars.

@Catsrules

Agreed with this one really. "3 copies of your data, in 2 physical locations, equals 1 backup" has been my thing for a long time.

I used to just keep my third copy one a drive in my desk at the office, but I've been full remote for years now.

Thanks for the reminder, I need to see if I can convince my folks to host a NAS in their hobby room or something.

The Abyss (mastodon.art)
 

As I stared into the Abyss, I became aware the Abyss was staring back at me. "What are you looking at?" I said. "You," the Abyss replied. "You are fascinating. I have never seen anyone like you before." I blushed. "I bet you say that to everyone." "I do. And it is always true." #MicroFiction #SmallStories #TootFic

@Perry

I looked into this once (lol a couple weeks ago). Its supposed to enable "live" pages, so that on the new tab, new threads are added without having to manually refresh the page. I dont think its working though.

It would end up with behavior like the lemmy bug that had new posts just show up and take over your page. Not sure its something we even want if im right.

That being said, i could be wrong on the above. @ernest would know.

Looks like Pixelfed has been/is working on live streaming... (mastodon.social)
 

Attached: 2 images I'm not kidding, @pixelfed has silently shipped Live streaming support over a year ago. I don't think it's ready for prime time yet, that's why I haven't advertised it that much. I'm working to ship this within the next month 🚀 https://docs.pixelfed.org/running-pixelfed/optional-features/livestreaming/

@TGRush

for me any of the up/downvote, click in to view, or boost counts.

I'm a scroller, but, like, if i see a joke in https://lemmy.world/c/dadjokes then i can chuckle and give it an upvote but i dont have to click in and load the thread fully. But the next time i load the page id lke to not have to scroll past that same thread to see new stuff.

If i downvote something id like to not see it again on the next load. If i open a thread and read the comment posts, i dont need to see that thread again on tne next load.

That sort of thing.

It does have some downsides in that finding threads i /sort-of/ remember and want to check again is harder, but i'm used to that.

Stable Diffusion + Improved Prompt Matrix = Crazy Loads of AI Art (ericri.medium.com)
 

In this post, I discuss how to create a large, varied number of images using a script with Automatic1111, and how to modify the script for even more large-batch variety. You’ll have the power to step away from your local Stable Diffusion UI while it creates hundreds of images for you to review later (or throw on Instagram, like me). I end touching on Stable Diffusion V2 news

Older article, but a good one.
