@duskfallcrew "I'm autistic/adhd and i can't deal."

Lol.. So am I. literally, diagnosed and all. I tried avoiding comfy for a while, but it's actually not so bad once ya get used to it. If anything, being autistic should be a boon towards getting into comfy. Cuz it allows you to order it how YOU want it. Not how other people think you should want it. It also comes with a few base templates to get ya started.

I mean, ya don't gotta jump in head first either. Ya can always set it up in a separate venv, toss in one model and maybe a lora or two, and have atter.

"lack of transparanecy on security..."

And you don't think that's an issue with A1111? Honestly, it is with ANY of these webuis, but at least with comfy, you know the only thing running is what you want running. There's not like 50 different things on the backend and pipelines and all. There's no tabs, it's what you see is what you get. I actually left SD Next and got into comfy because of the lack of transparency and the amount of backend fuckery going on with SDN.

Course I'm not nutso paranoid about Joe blow hacker. I worry more about the corporations than some random individual.

"i ahv ea VERY lack of logic in that department"

But.. It's SO simple.. I mean, objectively speaking, it's simple. It's like, Checkpoint --- Loras --- Prompt(positive/negative) --- empty latent image --- Ksampler --- Vae decode --- image

The empty latent image can be imagined as a blank canvas. It's just what the Ksampler needs to work with in order to generate an image, and that node generally contains the option for image resolution. Ksampler has a few odd options, most of which you've already seen in A1111. steps, sampler(like euler), scheduler(like karas), CFG (classifier free guidance, iirc, in A1111, it was just called 'guidance').

As for the wires, you can actually change the style of them in the options. You can force them to run linear (straight line between connections), or straight (less messy, they run along lines on the graph and have a more boxy appearance), or splines (curvy line between connections), or, you can outright hide them. That last one would drive me nuts, since I wouldn't be able to see what's connected to what, but once you have everything connected where you want it, using that could solve whatever anxiety you have about the lines/wires.

@duskfallcrew Eh, I don't claim to be better than anyone. It took me a while to figure out how to do inpainting and outpainting, and some of the things that are just more basic and straightforward in the other programs. So, I figure it'd be something nice to do; create a workflow that people new to the program can use to accomplish all these things without a lot of extra work.

Also, any workflows I've seen, have been targeted. It's one program, but it's like people are expected to look like 50 different places just to be able to do all the things the program can do.. My workflow would solve that by consolidating all of the functions into a single, easy to navigate workflow.

But, if people hadn't uploaded their workflows, then I would not have the resources required to make this one. With a program this diverse in the implementation of it's functions, it's good to have more people putting their mind into it, and letting us know what they come up with. Collaboration can be a powerful thing.

@duskfallcrew "If I can do it , so can you."

Trust me when I say, I'm not tryin to come across like that at all. At least not in the way that you think. Believe me, I've been gaslit to all hell by the normies for long enough to know just how irritating that can be..

As for age and mental illnesses, I'm currently 44, and on top of autism, I also have ptsd, the ptsd was only diagnosed within the last several months, and I didn't land on an official diagnosis for autism until age 38. What's more, I just come across another disorder that would actually seriously explain a LOT. Dissociative derealization disorder. But, from from what I've read of it, and experienced of it, I think a more accurate name would be 'lost in space syndrome'.

Basically, it's like I'm in control of myself and my actions, but there's a persistent disconnect between my cognition and my physical body. I tend to phase out, and lose time a lot. It's Not like I'm not aware of what's going on around me, or not in control of my actions, but it's more like going into lightspeed. Like, 3 months pass, and I didn't pay my phonebill again.

Problems for the average person is like, shit, hit the snooze button on my alarm, and slept in, problems for me is like, shit, I stopped thinking (for what seemed like an instant) about a meeting I had with my doctor, and didn't even think about it again until 3 months later(and the meting was 2 months before that).. Or, I'll think about it in passing, like "I should do that.." or, "I should look into that.", then I'll drift out of that thought and lose it again for a long period of time.

So, yea..

"Audhd"

Oh, that's great, my audio is also high definition; and surround sound. Yea, these headphones are alright like that.

But, in all seriousness, I was diagnosed with ADHD a year or few before the autism. So, yea, who knows.. Autism bleeds into so many other disorders.. Gonna talk to my Dr about that dissociative disorder. I already did, but I gotta phone her back. I keep putting that off though. I keep thinking about it, every day actually, but forcing myself to do a non-routine physical action, is like pulling teeth.. Big part of the reason I'm sure I have it, apart from the lost time and such, and that sensation that I can't make any connection with the physical world that feels.. real..

Apologies if that was too much of an infodump, but it's nice to be able to talk about this stuff with someone.

Anyways, I won't try to gaslight you into using comfy, or 'force'. Anything I said was nothing but suggestion and trying to be helpful. But, also to open you up to potentially bypassing any self-imposed limitations that were actually instilled into you by others that think you incapable of.. many things; just because you're not mainstream and don't think the way that they do.

Because the one thing I hate, almost more than people attempting to force me to think as they do, is those that assume that I am incapable. I am a thinking breathing being with full limitless use of my brain (fucked up as my brain may be..), and even if my memory is trash, and my focus is shot, I have the base ability to make a binary decision, and therefore, I can do literally anything that anyone else can, since literally everything is made up of binary components.

In a sense, we are all just differing combinations of 0's and 1's, and so is everything else on and off this planet. And so long as my memory is not completely shot, I can continue to build upon previous successes until I accomplish something. I only wish I'd known all I know now when I was younger. I wasted so many years thinking I was a mentally deficient nothing. And with our systemically ignorant society reinforcing those beliefs. I've effectively wasted a lifetime already..

@duskfallcrew I know that as well. I've had countless people get ignorant with me just because I don't say the things they expect me to say in the given situation. People need to chill out and stop being offended by words (to the extent they are). People be killin themselves these days over facebook bullying, but I got bullied IRL as a child. One would think it to be a fair bit worse. You cant exactly /ignore IRL, and before internet, you couldn't just go talk to someone else; there was only those around you. So, if they didn't like you, no one did.

It's funny that way though. The internet both connects, and separates us in so many ways. We've never been so anti-human, yet, we never stop talking to one another. It's a total paradox..

@duskfallcrew "death threats over ai"

Lol.. That just made me picture a scenario where ChatGPT starts threatening to kill you. Like, you know you fucked up when an AI that's literally programmed to be nothing but polite and subservient to you, starts threatening your life XD..

But, as for people, yea, a lot of people talk on the internet, just talk. Most people are just useless IRL though. They won't come at you, they won't fight for better quality of life, they won't fight for anything at all. Everyone's afraid, fearful, even me.. I've managed to break some of the fears I've had, but sadly, those things no longer affect me(basically, too little too late, the story of my life..).

nah for me, if u want just generate images, gof Forge, if u want fiddle and wonder for days why this or this node setup does not work and u get black images, while it works for everyone else, go comfy UI and waste time like android geek instead of just getting your images done :D

@duskfallcrew Yea I can see the similarities in the outputs. I like 2DN, but its gives me really weird stuff at times compared to other models. Which makes it unique at least :p
