Federal prisons being used to detain people arrested in Trump’s immigration crackdown
  • This, strangely, is one thing republicans have in the past been upset over - and I have no idea why. You would think their support of for-profit prisons and there support of detaining all undocumented immigrants would mean this would fit perfectly, but from Clinton out to Biden every time someone tried this, Republicans got irrationally upset over it.

  • it's good to look in the mirror and understand the material outcomes of voter behavior
  • Everyone is so focused on the genocide angle, but governments left and right throughout the world who were in power during the post COVID inflation spike got the boot. Most economist with froth at the mouth about "deflationary spirals" wherein people who have been waiting 15 years to buy a new pair of pants will wait a couple more years to buy it when prices start going down and thus cause an economic downturn. However, the general public believed that "getting inflation under control" meant going back to the original prices, something the (independent of Biden) federal reserve would never let happen because deflation = bad. Once the inflation spike occurred, Biden could have had 0% inflation from Nov 2022 to the election, and people still would have voted him out due to prices being too high.

  • Trump is 'angry' that deportation numbers are not higher
  • Biden deported from places that wanted to deport people, like Texas. Trump is focusing on places that restrict cooperation with ICE. They have/had the same man power to do the deportations. Of course Trump's numbers are going to be lower.

  • Three Months After Missouri Voted to Make Abortion Legal, Access Is Still Being Blocked
  • Wasn't Missouri the place where Rush Limbaugh's cousin saw the words on the amendment: "Allow abortion", said "This amendment clearly allows kids to get sex changes" and then went "No one was informed that they were supporting child sex change when they signed, so I call fraud and I'm striking the amendment from the ballot."

    Then the people running the amendment campaign told the state supreme court: "We didn't tell anyone that this would support child sex changes because it doesn't. We have no idea what crazy pills Limbaugh is on," and the state supreme court was like: "Ya, he is an idiot."

    Sounds like the legislator's "clarification" is just a continuation of this "let's tie trans stuff to abortion" theme.

  • Flag flown upside down as sign of distress outside of US State Department building today
  • Fair, I just see no other way of swaying minds without consequences. We tried 4 years of shielding people from Trump's baser urges, and we ended with thousands of people dying each day to COVID. Then 4 year later THEY VOTED HIM BACK IN.

  • Flag flown upside down as sign of distress outside of US State Department building today
  • In 2016, people thought that Trump was the problem. That if Trump left, we could have civility restored to the electoral process. Defeating Trump won't solve the problem because he isn't it - it is the electorate. The voters need to SEE what will happen when this or that occur.

    Deport all the immigrants, see the damage that brings, then bring them back with legal protections this time.

    Cancel all the science, see how far behind we get, then bring it back with all the funding to make the next moonshot.

    Get rid of all fogien aid, watch as our global power dimishes, the vote to bring it back with a clear and true purpose other than empire building.

    The people don't know WHY these things are important, and are unwilling to listen or learn. Thus, the only teacher is to experience. But to quote Trump: "There will be some pain" when doing it.

  • 3D Turn Test

    Gave up on ICON/PaMir/PiFu/Eva3D ever working on my computer and tried to make it work on my own.

    Workflow: Stable diffusion, Automatic1111. -Text2Img something that your model know the back and front of with a prompt. -Take image, feed into Depth map script, output Left/Right stereogram -Cut Stereogram into two pieces, feed either left or right into img2img with same prompt, low but non-zero de-noising, and depth map script again. Repeat on same side.

    Still need to play with the settings (de-noising and depth shift), up the resolution, change the prompt a bit while rotating. Hope someone else has better luck than I did. Anyone have a better workflow?
