It's possible I'm just blind, but I don't see a link to a video on your Patreon post, aside from the future YouTube link.

None of my local models answered correctly, but OWUI has feature to let multiple LLMs respond and merge that into a single message. Which in my case began with:
"Upon examining the provided responses, it becomes clear that there are discrepancies and inaccuracies."
Understatement of the century.

The result was a huge loss of detail, and very exaggerated edges. Obviously I could tweak the energy function and maybe get something better, but it's probably not worth it.

Here it is with the CGA colour palette for something slightly more practical. I also tried with the WebSafe color palette, but the difference between the two ceases to be visually apparent at that point.

The experimental algorithm seems to preserve edges and details surprisingly well, but it looks a bit more harsh than Floyd–Steinberg.

I lack the context to be able to determine whether FFS means "for fuck's sake", or "facial feminization surgery" (I assume the former), but I really want to pretend it's an intentional double entendre.
May your soon-to-be journey be as boring and uneventful (in a good way) as possible.

If I'm going to advance the arrival of the heat death of the universe, I should at least get pretty simulations out of it as a consolation prize.

Although I think this looks more chaotic than it really is partly because they're literally teleporting when they reach the edge of the bounding volume. Also maybe the water is hot? I have no idea what temperature looks like at this scale.

It's hard for me to appreciate how utterly chaotic the atomic world is. Seeing those molecules jumping around kind of makes me horrified that the fabric of my own being might threaten to rip itself apart at any moment.

Of course it's only going to display the first frame of an animated WebP image. How silly of me to think otherwise. Let me try that again.
