https://github.com/p-e-w/-p-e-w- Posted this from Reddit."Dear fellow Llamas,after almost 5 months of development, I finally have the pleasure of announcing to you the immediate availability of the biggest Heretic release ever, Heretic 2.0: https://github.com/p-e-w/hereticHeretic is the leading software for removing censorship from language models. It now boasts 37k GitHub stars and more than...
I'm not a better man but I would say no one will ever find out. I bet there is more to this than what is being let out.
Lot worse than that, they're finding more exploits as of today. Good luck.
Off topic: At one point it was 150k, unfortunately this was at a time before I learned about backing up. Lost from 2006 to 2007 due to a spin disk failure. Roughly 50k photos of scans and digital taken.
Anyway, if you know of VAV VGX then welcome thus the three hands remark.
Understood. No need to be rude about it. I will ensure that all my post when I try and relate are marked accordingly. VAV VGX.
Oh yeah, I'm not going to lie, once I started using ComfyUI with FIBO2 and Qwen Image 2.1 to restore my photographs, I was hook! I have 25+ years of digital and film photos that I've been restoring due to my older camera/lens quality. The addiction of restoring these older photos and then processing them once again in either Lightroom or Photoshop. I caught myself spending countless hours revisiting the past and restoring it to what I remember. I love making sure it is perfect to what I last recall it to be. There is no going back for me, these diffusion models are bring live to forgotten images and for that I'm thankful.
ComfyUI with either FIBO2 or Qwen Image 2.1 can do wonders for denoising. You can refine sharpness as well as make the image RAW quality for editing. My 3060 can do a 2k image in 40 seconds. Then process through Lightroom and Photoshop.
These 2 diffusion models are amazing.
Since Qwen Image Edit 2509 camera out, I was able to restore some of my earlier photographs that my camera at the time just failed to produce what I envisioned. Due to poor sensor and quality glass. To this day I still after 25 years shoot on a Canon 20D and 5D with old Japanese Asahi Takumar SMC lenses(M42 to EOS), which is all I can afford. I have over 100,000+ photographs that I have slowly started to restore thanks to these diffusion models. And now that FIBO2 and Qwen Image 2.1 are out, OMG! I can restore images I've spent hours on to restore in seconds! I still run them through Lightroom and Photoshop. They are comparable to a high-end digital camera. I'll never stop using them and can keep using my same old glass for years to come. I don't care what anyone says, they are an expression of what I see as a photographer and artist.
I've also started using Flux.3 Klein for extra added details. Local diffusion models are so great.
Oh man, I love using AI to retouch my photographs. I shoot with a Canon 5D Mark I (OG), which has a faulty sensor. Since I can’t afford an upgrade, I rely on vintage glass: Pentax SMC 50mm and 35mm lenses adapted from M42 to EOS. With FIBO2 and Qwen Image 2.1, I can transform my raw shots so they look as though they were captured with a high-end digital camera. I then pass them through Lightroom for fine adjustments, add some Photoshop magic, and bam—the result is exactly what I want. I’ve been photographing as a hobby for a little over 25 years now.
Going forward, I’ll be using local diffusion models exclusively, and I couldn’t care less what others think. This workflow suits me perfectly, and I genuinely enjoy the process. I have over 100,000 digital and film photos I've slowly been processing using this method - I have restored photos I tried to restore the older ways without success. I'm so grateful for these local models.
Neat. I wonder if you could use the air it generates by having directional ports louvers that open and allow the air to flow for more control.
Would need 2 more servo, left/right port louvers.
I've stopped using the browser and have my Pi/LocalLLM(Qwen3.8) do my searching for me. Made a nice interface that will display top results.
No need to pay for a thing, except electricity, which that is the next step, solar powered LLM server.
Yeah no, something is very off on this and I cannot put my finger on it, the video looks odd to me. I want to say AIgen feel, but I only saw little tiny vids, rest were blurry as sin.
You could allow the user to flag it and keep the alerts to only them. They would get the alert, they could add notes of what happened so when that plate shows again they will know. Maybe build it so that you can add friends to a group and share plate details. It's GOLD Jerry!
But yeah moderation would be a nightmare still - I could see a ton of ways to abuse this. Criminals will figure it out as a source to track individuals, placing themselves in their known travel path, setup satellite spots to alert, that way for example if they're casing the joint they could have alerts when then individual is coming back.
Great, now ppl are going to make this app and use it for bad, see what you did.
From what I've read, albeit from Reddit, they're not planning to sell or shelve those racks, they're planning to destroy them due to the fact it will flood the market. They have no intention of letting others have them.
The way it looks on her makes me think that trump might actually be wearing something similar, with the extra bulk you see in recent months. The taps he makes, the odd gate, kinda makes sense.
cough...Artificial Intelligence...cough
This is only AGI, not Super Intelligence. What more can you ask for?
OpenAI, Anthropic, Google, would like to have a word with you.
You do know that most of these accounts chatting about linking their stuff are bots. They're hyping it up. Actual ppl on here are not touching meta or grok.
For honesty, I do not understand how people are so willing to help meta with using their services which are known for ad/data collecting. Just baffles my senses that this is fully acceptable. I guess I will never be apart of the system that feeds it, other than voicing my opinions on HN from time to time.
My local LLM with voice interaction and fine-tuning is free and works fast enough. I can do everything frontiers can without it bleeding into my social life. yolo.
Which I believe is what the developer was looking to do. I personally enjoy it being JavaScript. I've had it redo some functions on the fly which to me is perfect.
We package Pi w/ Qwen3.6 35B-A3B configures with our software, we're ramping up close to 500 clients, so there is our contribution.
I use my Pi to organize my graphic design assets as well as update documentation for client projects. It also is my daily driver for a story I'm working on and thanks to a ton of great skills created it has become more powerful.
Local model is Qwen3.6 35B-A3B and Qwen3.8 27B UD. I love the compressing function, keeps on pushing.
I've tried Oh-my-pi but it's too heavy for me and eats up 6% of my context on start. Also I find Pi's keyboard shortcuts easier to use.
I use WSL, one tab is GitBash running llama.ccp and the other is normal terminal running pi. Winning combo for me.
Also started using Pi as my search engine, which I've refine and does what I need it to do, can also ask it to create a html doc with links or markdown. Fun stuff.
Yeah I just gave it a run and it starts off burning 6% of my tokens on start.
Pi sits at 0%.
I'm so use to the command keys in Pi that having to type something out in OMP slows me down. I'll stick with Pi, I've built it to my needs and having WSL finally working. I still have to run 2 CLIs, one for LLama.ccp and the other for Pi, not sure if this is normal.
"Illuminate (roomname), de-illuminate (roomname)" works well.
Harden perimeter, locks doors and sets alarm.
Neat stuff.
Oh my friend, it can. We have ours running and using unique skills it learns from online. You allow it to update skills and see what works - from there it just keeps building better and better skill sets.
Time to grow some gills and dive for sunken oil tankers in the Strait of Hormuz. . .
