FYI: photorealism is art that imitates photos, and I see the term misused a lot both in comments and prompts (where you'll actually get subideal results if you say "photorealism" instead of describing the camera that "shot" it!)

I meant it here in the sense of "as indistinguishable from a photo as the model can make it".

"style" is apt for many reasons.

I've heard chairs of animation departments say they feel like this puts film departments under them as a subset rather than the other way around. It's a funny twist of fate, given that the tables turned on them ages ago.

Photorealistic models are just learning the rules of camera optics and physics. In other "styles", the models learn how to draw Pixar shaded volumes, thick lines, or whatever rules and patterns and aesthetics you teach.

Different styles can reinforce one another across stylistic boundaries and mixed data sets can make the generalization better (at the cost of excelling in one domain).

"Real life", it seems, might just be a filter amongst many equally valid interpretations.

To continue the thread, my favorite is https://drop.lol

I’m using FilePizza when I need it, saw it on HN recently. All this AI magic allegedly taking our jobs, but we still can’t transfer files from one device to another, or print a document reliably.

I've been very happy with Blip. My use case is to share processed photos from my MacBook to my Pixel to use for Social sharing. It's super-fast, especially when the devices are on the same LAN.

Nor send text message with images.

Why would a text message support images?

Or react to images sent by those that can.

Is replying not enough? I always feel like react is a lazy way to avoid replying

A well placed react can be quality comedy. Also very easy way to communicate to somebody you saw what they sent/are doing what they asked.

reactions are richer than a word

what about two words

A text is already a lazy way to avoid speaking.

One level of laziness should be enough for anyone.

idk, for me text is more hard. talk is easiest. voice messages is top lazy and I hate them.

Drop.lol works in android-firefox. File.pizza isn't, for me.

To continue to continue the thread relaysecret.com and relaysecret.com/tunnel Found it on hn years ago, still use it all the time. Perfect replacement for Firefox send, rip

What about b.o.b.? https://bob.osau.re/

Seeing "404: Not Found" for all raw files

The thing about "basic" here is that it's subjective. It could be that these issues only happen on your machine or that the staff (or even most people) don't need what you're asking for. Of course they should try to fix them anyway, but their backlog is enormous.

This also reminded me of an approach using SQLite: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=45748186

You can constrain Python version: https://peps.python.org/pep-0723/#:~:text=requires-python

AI is penalized for any and all emitted errors through RL, so this kind of carefulness is actually a strong sign of AI.

If GSConnect doesn't work for you, it's also worth trying Valent: https://valent.andyholmes.ca/

I've also had luck with Gemini. If I made a few noises and asked which one was higher pitched, it could easily tell.
