That feeling when he says you look angelic but you don’t know if he means you look really pretty or if you have an abnormally high number of eyeballs.

@MonaApp I assume you aren’t looking at supporting other Fedi servers such as Pleroma and Akkoma yet? I tried to use it with Akkoma but it appears that the Akkoma user ID is alphanumeric and Mona expects an integer value for the user ID. So it didn’t work …

But if you are looking at adding support for other Fedi servers which support the Mastodon API, I’d be happy to help with that effort 🙂

@yonomitt That’s exactly how it is for me too 🙂 Just that this didn’t start happening till I got older … When I was younger, I could read anything and both understand it and not have my attention wander. But I guess that’s part of getting older? 😛

I haven't been posting any #StableDiffusion images since I was busy coding and writing and doing other stuff ...

But I've been generating images. These are from prompts ranging from "a cross between an egg and a rabbit" to "a creature with a large white egg as its body, white rabbit ears, a whiskered face, and rabbit paws and legs, blue sky with clouds, lots of trees in the background" ...

I was trying to get one image to match a story I was writing but I had to try various prompts to get something I was even happy with. And in the end, I didn't use any of these images 😛

And that’s the start of another week of new paper reading — boosted 8 papers out of a total of 84 new and updated papers in the cs.CV category on arXiv.org

That feels like a whole lot of papers today … just another Monday, eh? 😛

Sometimes, reading #MachineLearning papers, I find my brain turning off — I read the words, but I don’t get the meaning. I have to then stop myself and go back and read each of the words individually to make sense of them …

This probably is a sign that I need to stop reading papers 😛 But does this happen to anybody else? I think I’ve started doing this for everything, even fiction, and that’s why I can’t read as much any longer …

@AngelaPreston I hate when that happens. In Sri Lanka, they set off fireworks for anything — New Year, just start blasting fireworks at midnight when some of us are trying to sleep.

Your daughter got married? Set off fireworks.

Your favourite team won! Set off fireworks.

Somebody got elected to office. Cue fireworks.

It’s annoying. Sure, you have the right to celebrate whatever and however you want, but do be considerate of others too?

@at Sorry, didn’t mean that this was feature of FB — just that the author of the app was modelling it after FB messenger, but maybe you got that already and are simply saying that you don’t understand what it would look like?

Either way, I guess since the app is not available yet, it’s a moot point 😛

After 2 whole days of sun, the rain came back.... And this beauty as well.
Now we were both soaked, waiting for the shower to end but she gave me all the time to take a few portraits.
