The voice isn't faithful, but I like how it turned out musically... that is, after a few regens and prompt changes. 🙃

::: spoiler Lyrics La-la-la-lava ch-ch-ch-chicken
Steve's Lava Chicken, yeah, it's tasty as hell
Ooh, mamacita, now you're ringin' the bell
Crispy and juicy, now you're havin' a snack
Ooh, super spicy, it's a lava attack

Redstone whispers, hoppers hum,
Eggs are crackin’, here they come—
Cluck-cluck-cluckin’, feathers in a blaze,
Lava blade spins, automated craze!
Drop a seed, then mine the blocks,
Watch ‘em flock to fiery shocks,
One wrong step? Well, that’s your fate—
Dinner’s served on a diamond plate!

La-la-la-lava ch-ch-ch-chicken
Steve's Lava Chicken, yeah, it's tasty as hell
Ooh, mamacita, now you're ringin' the bell
Crispy and juicy, now you're havin' a snack
Ooh, super spicy, it's a lava attack

Golden carrots, stacks for days,
Auto-farmin’ in a blaze,
No

Prompt: "Children's book illustration, in the style of Roald Dahl. The textless picture is mostly black and white. It depicts a young girl with short red hair and a black dress frowning, as she stands next to a red front door, and, with a thick paintbrush, paints the bottom half of the door black while holding a metallic paint bucket."

Inspired by The Rolling Stones - Paint It, Black. Originally posted as a "name that song" challenge, but it seems a lot of people really liked the picture (as evidenced by how many upvotes it got).

This is an app for iOS and Android by ElevenLabs, where you can import a web article or ebook, and listen to it with some of its text-to-speech voices.

I've tried it out for a few hours so far and so far it's pretty OK. However, I did notice a couple of problems that could be ironed out:

• When using a PDF, ElevenReader will read out all of the text in the document, including page numbers and repeated headings. I couldn't find a way to disable this, so I just resorted to using an ePub version of my book instead.
• The Lily voice will sometimes drop the first one or two syllables of a sentence, especially after it has paused for a few seconds. I tested a few other voices, and they didn't seem to have this problem.

Anyway it's nice that an app like this is being offered for free and without ads. Apparently a paid tier will be introduced later, but I hope this isn't at the expense of any of the free features. (It would be even better for an open source alternative of comparable qual

Original title: What Actual Aliens Might Look Like

Summary by Gemini (slightly edited): This video is about the possibility of alien life. It discusses how life on Earth is incredibly diverse and exists in the strangest and most extreme places. The video then uses our imagination and real science to travel to three possible worlds, each more alien than the next. The first world is the ice hell of the planet Ipa, where life has evolved to be black to make use of the weak infrared light. The second world is the gas giant Nimbus, where life exists in the form of cloud plankton and sky whales. The third world is the moon Monier, where life has evolved to use ammonia instead of water and to incorporate magnetized minerals into its biology. The video concludes by saying that scientific speculation is fun but also useful, and that it can give us ideas about what we should look out for when searching for alien life.

DeepSeek's ELI5 on what LoRAs are:

Imagine you have a big box of crayons that can draw almost anything you can think of. This box is like Stable Diffusion, a super-smart AI that creates pictures from your words. But sometimes, you want to draw something very specific, like a unicorn wearing a spacesuit, and your big box of crayons doesn’t have the exact colors or tools to make it look just right.

This is where LoRAs come in! LoRAs are like small packs of special crayons or stickers that you can add to your big box. They don’t replace your crayons—they just give you extra tools to draw specific things better. For example, if you want to draw that unicorn in a spacesuit, you can use a LoRA that knows all about spacesuits or unicorns, and it helps Stable Diffusion make the picture look exactly how you want.

In technical terms, LoRAs (Low-Rank Adaptations) are small, lightweight files that tweak how Stable Diffusion works. They help the AI focus on specific styles, objects, o

Original title: Tired of Doomscrolling?

Summary by Gemini: This video is about the state of the world and how to deal with it. The video starts by acknowledging that the world is a difficult place to live in right now. There are many problems that we face, such as poverty, inequality, and environmental destruction. It can be easy to feel overwhelmed by these problems and to lose hope. However, the video argues that we should not give up. We are a powerful species with the potential to create a better world. We have made incredible progress in the past, and we can continue to do so in the future. The video ends by encouraging viewers to be optimistic about the future and to work towards creating a better world.

Funny, but also very intuitive metaphor for explaining sexual consent. "Just imagine that instead of initiating sex, you're making them a cup of tea."
