I've ran hunyuanvideoai from their GitHub and it seems to generate realistic videos. It is a bit slow (30-60min per video clip) and requires ~50GB VRAM. I wonder how the quality co…

anyone done a comparison with the open-source hunyuanvideoai.com?

Firearm related X is the wrong thing to measure. Obviously if guns are truly banned, there will be no gun crime. There will still however be knife crime, fist crime, car crime, etc…

Ebay is terrible. I once sold a nice (and expensive) smartphone on ebay. The buyer complained that it did not arrive as described. The phone was fine, but whatever, I thought ebay …

Same analysis error. How many beds are there total in a given hospital is the right question. Looks like _all_ community hospitals in the US have about 100,000 beds (including all …

This is a great example of how misleading relative change can be. Double of 1 is 2. Double of 27 is 54. Stats like this should be presented in absolute numbers and given in context…

The people who are for forcing everyone else to take the vaccine don't understand how strongly people's beliefs (including their own) are held. What if the anti-vaxers we're forcin…
