It talks about all the aesthetic problems in the training of the first stable diffusion models - only SD1.5, since after that no completely open model came out. In short, the taste that got imprinted in the model represent a very small slice of society, in particular some white, male, rich techbros from the West.<br><a href="https://works.hcommons.org/records/g917m-xrj41" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">https://</span><span class="ellipsis">works.hcommons.org/records/g91</span><span class="invisible">7m-xrj41</span></a><br><a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/stablediffusion" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>stablediffusion</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/generativeai" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>generativeai</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/aesthetics" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>aesthetics</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/ethics" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>ethics</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/diversity" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>diversity</span></a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/opacity" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>opacity</span></a></p>

Leniwcowaty :kdenew:<p>What did I just learn...<br>In <a href="https://fosstodon.org/tags/Cinnamon" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Cinnamon</span></a> in Settings you can go to "Windows" and in "Title bar" section you can bind scrolling on window title bar to adjust the <a href="https://fosstodon.org/tags/opacity" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>opacity</span></a> of the window.</p><p>WHAT?!</p><p>I've been using <a href="https://fosstodon.org/tags/linuxmint" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>linuxmint</span></a> for 2 years now and I just noticed that! That's soooo cool.</p><p>Doesn't work on all windows tho, notably Flatpak Firefox and Steam (since they don't have Cinnamon title bar). Still cool!</p>
Chuck Darwin<p>The Supreme Court did not disclose its longstanding financial ties with former Homeland Security Secretary Michael Chertoff even as it touted him as an expert who independently validated its investigation into who leaked the draft opinion overturning Roe v. Wade.</p><p>The court’s inquiry, released last week with Chertoff’s endorsement, failed to identify who was responsible for the unprecedented leak. </p><p>The decision to keep the relationship with <a href="https://c.im/tags/Chertoff" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>Chertoff</span></a> quiet is a reflection of a pattern of <a href="https://c.im/tags/opacity" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>opacity</span></a> at the nation’s highest court, whose rulings affect every American.</p><p>CNN has learned from sources familiar with the arrangements that the court in recent years has privately contracted with The Chertoff Group for security assessments, some broadly covering justices’ safety and some specifically related to Covid-19 protocols at the court itself.</p><p>The estimated <a href="https://c.im/tags/payments" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>payments</span></a> to Chertoff’s risk assessment firm, for consultations that extended over several months and involved a review of the justices’ homes, reached at least $1 million.
