My Steam Deck has to be one of my favorite gadgets in the last few years. Gaming aside, the fact that it’s running Linux opens up all sorts of interesting possibilities.

For example, let’s use it to add a new feature to ArtBot… while I’m on an airplane. The screen is tiny, but oh man, it actually worked.

On the way to Seattle for a work trip.

Hello, Mt. Rainier.

I should just start a new series entitled, “Punk Rock Politicos”. This is a follow up to a previous image: Punk Rock Obama.

Here is our treasury secretary, Janet “Yelling” Yellen.

As of today, I am officially on sabbatical for the next 6 weeks. Cheers to you and yours! Time to rest and recharge and whatnot.

Using a customized prompt, you can (for now, at least), get ChatGPT to misbehave a bit.

For example, I turned it into an angry programmer.

Just got the email from Phony Stark that my API access to Twitter has been suspended. It was a fun dozen years or so.

Time to find Mr. RossBot and JustTriangles a new home.

ArtBot got another callout in PC World in the article: “The best AI art generators: Bring your wildest dreams to life.”

Though a bit of (fair) criticism at the end of the blurb though:

Why use Artbot? The vast number of AI models, and the variance in style those images produce. Otherwise, generating images via Artbot can be a bit of a crapshoot, and you may expend a great number of kudos simply exploring all the options. Since there’s no real setup besides figuring out the API key, Stable Horde (Artbot) can be worth a try.

Hey, I’ll take it!

ArtBot keeps chugging along! 5,000,000 images have been created.

Just finished up our solar installation. Here’s to reducing the amount of money we give to the fiasco known as PG&E.

I cannot stop staring at this screen. Give me all the photons!
