Why wouldn’t you use colab for nsfw? Do you really not trust Google Cloud that much? Or do they have some kind of policy I’m not aware of (can’t imagine how they would enforce this)?
You apparently can't use anything to do with automatic-111 webui from colab, don't remember the exact restriction but I hear even if you do a simple, print with the word it freaks out..

Wait, should we not critique? OK i'll fix that. It's perfect. Stop all work and development on it now guys, it's perfect. It has no flaws and makes no mistakes. Amazing I guess.
I think @bondarchuk took my comment out of context, quoting just the first line. No big deal, it's just hard to respond to that. I don't even see an issue with that particular artefact, I think it's an interesting problem from a technical pov, hence literally every other part of my comment.
I'm a bloke, I've never been that particularly bothered by like, Lara Croft, Lena, muscular guys in action games etc, I get it, I want to look at idealized/attractive things as much as the next person, but something about this makes me super uncomfortable.
I was going to get a 4090 this year, but I just don't think 24gb VRAM is going to bee enough in the short term future(for AI related stuff). Ended up getting a 3060 for 1/4 of the cost, and I'm planning on using/paying for Colab until some 6090 comes out with 128gb vram. Something that kind of bothers me that I don't understand. Why is there such an obsession about having small computers/servers? I don't care if I ha…
I built a system on one of these open frames back in 2015 when I was living in New Mexico and kept it in my grad student office: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B009RRIP86 . It was great (especially for swapping components), but then I moved. Living in a small apartment here in CA, that thing was pretty annoying. One time, I got egg on the motherboard. Long story, but I projected the first Trump-Hillary debate onto an old bedsheet on the wall, had friends over, and supplied eggs. Let's just say I was surprised at how far an egg can splatter. I did my best to clean it, but I had recurring issues with the ram slots following that incident. Last week I finally got rid of the whole system after its long and prestigious career.
Also, I kept it under my desk for a while and had a bad habit of sticking my feet in there and causing problems.
So, advantages of a closed case besides small footprint:
- Raw egg does not splatter into the ram slots
- You can't put your feet in the computer

I agree about small computers. The rich folks in NY City and Silicon Valley set the trends, and real estate is expensive there. Also, graphic arts people make advertisements, and they want PCs to look cool regardless of their power. If you want a good, big system, take a look at used Xeon-based workstations. Sometimes a used HP z840 will sell for as little as $400 with an 1125 watt power supply.

I agree we need more VRAM. I wish someone would combine a GTX 960 level processor made on modern lithography (to cut power draw) with 32GB of low power GDDR VRAM and try to fit it in a single slot. 1x DP connector would be fine.

While it may not be enough VRAM for the future, I'm sort of taking the opposite stance: I'm only going to be playing with AI that I can build on my own machine using (high end) consumer hardware.
People have been creating amazing work with only SD 1.4 and 1.5. If this is the limit of what I can do with SD for the next few years, so be it, there's more than enough to play with and I'm personally not willing to fully cede the future of AI to large corps. There needs to be hackers in the space pushing the limits of what can be done (without worrying about copyright, TOS, etc).
Maybe the best stuff will be locked behind a server, but I'm much more interested in the creative possibilities of running projects (nsfw and otherwise) on my personal hardware.
That said, I think it's great to extend that logic to less price pieces of hardware (i.e. I'm only interested in what I can build at home on 8gb of VRAM, etc)
Does anyone “in the know” have approximations on cost to run this on collab or similar? Maybe a very rough Dollars per minute of video?
A frame is like 20-30 seconds for one pass on my 3090, you may have multiple tools and multiple passes.. say 60 seconds a frame x 300 frames about 5 hours -- 3090 costs 0.44$ per hour on runpod.. a little more than 2$

Kinda crazy how averse to ongoing costs i am. I have a 3080TI for Blender rendering and sculpting and general blender, so i definitely need something good local.. but i'm debating buying top of the line on the next iteration so i can do this stuff locally. Thousands of dollars perhaps just to avoid a $2 cost lol.
