Well much like cryptomining, you could possibly share your GPU power to help train new open models similar to LTX or WAN, but you know, community made and open source. You don't get payed you get to have an open model you can use. I mean would go for it, I'd donate my 5090 to work like 2 hours a day ain't a big deal. I know VRAM is the wall but you know, maybe not in the future.

It's just an idea tho.

LTX, WAN, AnimateDiff ? I want to try Mixamo->OpenPose->Complete so far -> Video model

So I can do first frame / last frame best on my controlnet however, what to use to send openpose controlnet data into video model + frame... What's the best route for this. I'll start simple with anime or 2d animation.

So I'm doing some TTS Voice overs in comfyUI. And was looking into piping Audacity for SFX. I made a bunch of complicated macros inside Audacity that you can't reproduce in Comfyui, I was wondering would it be possible to:

TTS Audio -> Audacity -> Import Audio -> Next node

Within ComfyUI. I did consult some LLMs so it would have to be a custom python script triggering Audacity macro to run then a listener script inside Comfy to load latest audio on folder contents change, it sounds too complicated. Is there an easier solution ? Any Audio Engineers out there 😃 ?

So finally got a day to myself to finally leave Windows10. After trying out Windows11 and dropping it literally in 2 hours, I installed latest Ubuntu, and was blows away. Everything works. It's quiet, calm, different. I got RVC to work, I made a comfyui 1 click install that pulls manager and most common nodes right away, also does symlinking and all. Triton, Sage Attention, lol just fucking works, nodes rarely have conflicts.

I tried linux few times more than a decade ago, never gave it a shot but now, I was just blown away, it feels like an Apple computer without Bill Gates team shoving his trash in there... and my comfyui actually runs faster, really faster, loading, moving around in workflows... I'll probably run passtrough vm for windows apps that can't work on linux. Currently building an actual agent I control, so I don't have to use openAI for help.

I feel dumb for not switching to Linux back in 2023 when I started in AI, I decided back then I won't go into Windows11 anyway unless by force.

Just so you know, I've been using Windows since 2001. I'm sort of a power user. First transition to Linux will happen within hours until you get the true hang of it, file system, copy paste, terminal. This thing is literally built for power users, I can't really imagine a scenario where I go back to Windows, really, driver issues, spyware, analytics, copilot, all that crap is gone now. It just sad Adobe doesn't provide linux apps, I think it's because they spy on you like everything else. Also those annoying install wizards with NEXT NEXT NEXT FINISH and then somewhere in there it slipped some avast malware crap because you didn't unclick something, that shit is gone also.

So, goodbye Windows... Linux is just better.
