@Moon When you're not yourself very saavy to the medium this is probably how the thinking goes: "We need stories people like to make movies out of. Writing original stories is risky as people might not like them. People into anime/manga tell me this is a good story and lots of people like it, but also lots of people wouldn't read/watch it because it's manga/anime, it seems a slam dunk that you can adapt this into a movie and have a success."
The part where that fails is that often manga/anime is highly idiosyncratic, more than most other media. Fans care very deeply about the idiosyncraties and will consider removing or altering them watering down, but people who wouldn't watch an anime find these idiosyncraties at best confusing and sometimes outright repulsive. You can try to please both but usually the result is you turn both off (GITS live action movie).
There have been some successes though. I think Gunnm and All You Need Is Kill's adaptations were fairly well received.
@lain I always stuck with Auto1111. Most of the SDXL checkpoints I was using tell not to use the refiner anyway so I wasn't missing it. But it's here now too.
You should try Realities Edge XL 2.0, it's become by far my favorite checkpoint. Here's your prompt ran through it.
@lain Ok. That's one of the things SDXL is better at than SD 1.5, multiple subjects, though at some point if you put too many attributes it will start getting confused too and you'll need to use Regional Prompter. Or if you want a specific image composition.
@lain Searching the code I see references to both clip_l and clip_g in the SDXL Textual Inversion settings, but nowhere else. I'm not sure whether it just puts the text field in one of them or both of them at the same time. Looking at forums and guides and it seems most people recommend using the same prompt in both in ComfyUI.
@lain Most SDXL checkpoints I used have been better with natural language than tags which tends to make it harder to pinpoint a style.

guizzy (in exile)“Imagine a large gray wolf sitting upright at a long wooden conference table. Its fur is thick and silky, while its tail sways gently behind it. It has piercing amber eyes that seem to stare intently ahead, unwaveringly focused despite the chaos around them. The room feels tense, with people whispering among themselves, unsure whether to approach the powerful creature or keep their distance. As the wolf listens attentively to the discussions, its ears perk up occasionally, reacting to every sound in the room.”
@ElDeadKennedy@coolboymew@rosey I've had buckwheat pillows, it's weird at first but you get used to it. You need to adjust and place the buckwheat husks in them to keep your neck at a healthy angle and that can be annoying, and if you tend to change position during your sleep it doesn't adjust to the weight of your head the way softer material does. But it does offer good support.
My current pillow is filled with Thermaloft, a down alternative. It is highly refluffable and adjustable.
@coolboymew@Moon That's what I did and I got employed by some very prestigious companies. The fields that will insist on diplomas are gonna be government and academia. Outside of that, if you're flexible with what you're willing to learn and work on and have good soft skills, it'll work out well.
> Chrome is an advertising delivery platform first and foremost, and anyone with even a hint of foresight and a disdain for ads should’ve switched to Firefox years ago. At this point, using Chrome is self-inflicted.
> EME is the first crack in the wall that protected browsers from those who would thwart adversarial operability and take “how about nah?” off the table, leaving us with the kind of take-it-or-leave-it Web that the marketing industry has been striving for since the first pop-up ad.
> As for adblocking in and of itself – I never had much of a problem with it, despite OSNews running (a very limited set of) ads. In the end, your computer is your own, and you, and only you, get to decide what gets stored in your RAM or what gets displayed on your screen. If you do not want ads on your computer, then you have the right to block them client-side.
> I, too, use ad blockers on all my browsers and devices – and I can safely say that if ad blockers didn’t exist, I’d be spending a lot less time reading websites online. Note that this study was performed by Mozilla employees.
I could keep going...
So... Other, dumber people should watch ads and make his services free. Not him though.
