The “fun” part is that it has already discovered the poop knife. We just need to figure out how to coax it out.

I’ll definitely give the web UI a shot since I’m already quite familiar with A1111 and it seems they’re trying to recreate the same look and feel. Thank you for the info!

I’ve been wanting to run that one on my hardware but GPT4All just refuses to start its GUI. The only thing is a “chat.exe” that sits idle in the task manager. And this is an issue I’ve seen reported in their Github from several users, on both Win 10 and 11.

Have you find success with that frontend, or are you using one that actually works? I haven’t researched any others since this issue has me a little burnt out.

I’ve seen fonts on all kinds of filesharing sites like Mediafire etc. But archive.org feels like a good bet for some kind of longevity. As for making it findable, I’m afraid I can’t think of any advice.

Yeah, I’m in a similar spot with After Effects. I think there’s just nothing out there that comes even close for motion graphics, except maybe Blender. I simply haven’t taken the time to learn it.

By pure coincidence I found a font just last night that I had been searching for, on and off, for years—on archive.org of all places. Kind of funny that you came back and replied to my comment today in your post about fonts 😄

Out of curiosity, did you ever find a solution for removing the DSIG data?

I use Adobe CuckCloud at work on my boss’ subscription. For personal stuff I have the Affinity suite. I know it’s also proprietary, but it’s a one-time purchase, and more importantly, not Adobe.

Man I tried using Inkscape to make a small icon and it took me maybe 30 mins to do something that would have taken less than two minutes with Illustrator. I know there’s a learning curve to all software, but my experience was very bad. Pretty much every hotkey I wanted to use was different from its Illustrator counterpart. And even looking past that, the interface was horribly laggy on my machine. I have no idea what made the UI refresh at like 20fps but tolerating it was untenable for me.

I’ll probably try it on another computer, and remap the hotkeys I use the most. If/when I eventually ditch Windows for Linux, I’ll need something that works, since Affinity’s stuff is Windows + Mac only.

Could they not just (in Illustrator) use the type tool for the characters they want and convert each character to paths? No tracing required!

This is based solely on memory so I’m probably wrong somewhere lol
