Reposted by TorchesBrian Griffith @qlippot.bsky.social · 30/06/2026Hey, here's a hobby (community) tip. Women in mini painting face a whole lot of shit that dudes in same have not experienced.

Reposted by TorchesDaniel Hardcastle @handle.invalid · 31/05/2025I discovered yesterday, in a mass email sent at 3am, that I will not be receiving the roughly £40,000 that my publisher Unbound/Boundless owes me for pre-order sales of The Paradox Paradox. The payment for five years of work, gone. #unboundless 52999541
Reposted by TorchesBaldur Bjarnason @baldurbjarnason.com · 31/05/2025Gonna burn some bridges and talk about Unbound, since it's unlikely that they'll sue me at this point. They seem to have spent money that was supposed to go towards royalty payments, expecting money to come in, which then didn't bsky.app/profile/laur... (thread) #unboundless 4509192

Torches @imperialtorches.bsky.social · 12/04/2025A while back a friend of mine recommended using a reflective black background for photographing minis. Broke a picture frame this week and decided to give it a go, priming the back of the glass black. Okay, yeah that works pretty well. 120

Reposted by TorchesSam Goree @samgoree.bsky.social · 09/03/2025So what we get is a model that takes TV static and adjusts it to make the patterns that happen to be there more like an "#aesthetic" training images and more like the text prompt. The composition ends up looking random and illogical, and the textures, colors and shapes are noise-free. 1593
Reposted by TorchesSam Goree @samgoree.bsky.social · 09/03/2025Oh this is related to my research. Generative models like this learn to take a random noise image (like tv static) and repeatedly reduce the noise, iteratively making the details more like a training image and more like the associated text prompt. A middle stage might look like these 18211
