Seriously contemplating posting political commentary just to see if I can get some actual ad revenue engagement. Don’t know if the new attention I’m getting on Instagram is legit. Apparently 10,000 views on Instagram isn’t even worth a fraction of a cent, so it’s not even worth monetizing my Instagram account. I’d also hate having to respond to comments like it was a job. But I suppose if I was getting real money, I’d have to respond to comments like it was a job. LOL

Another 720p to 4K GigaPixel AI Demo
Just shot something quick a few hours ago. Wanted to show how awesome AI enhancement can be. On the left is the original 720p screenshot. On the right is the upscaled to 2160p (aka 4K) screenshot. Impressive as hell, innit? But pay close attention to what the AI got wrong. Notice the extra hair it generated on my palm and forehead. LOLOL. And the patches under by eyes are extremely ghoulish and exaggerated. But it was able to detect my chapped lips, so that’s incredible as hell.
Notice how the word “Michigan” doesn’t quite look right. But this is only for a few frames, so in motion it doesn’t matter at all. You wouldn’t even catch it. But a human would be able to figure it out. Otherwise, yes, very impressive.

SDXM 3D Game Engine Progress LOL
Getting very good performance. Confident will get 30fps when it’s ready to run. Right now it’s only chewing on “simple” graphics.

By Chongchen Saelee www.eastfist.com The colors are off because I had to pull them out with Photoshop. By eye, of course, it’s very faint, but you can see the “streaks” against the pitch dark night sky. The camera however saw it in the liveview on my Nikon D3200 as a red/pink rainbowish looking thing. Used a prime lens. That’s why you need specialized equipment like a huge lens for night photography. These weren’t even long exposures either. Look at all the motion blur stars! LOL

Nikon D3200 DSLR Auto-Focus Mode Is Impressive!
Shoulda mastered the full Auto-Focus Mode for my Nikon D3200 DSLR. Didn’t know I could get such good results. These were captured with a heavy ass telephoto lens, hand-held, and the stupid robins were moving all over the place! You gotta set those damn camera settings right and be ready to shoot. Shot from inside my dimly lit living room through the grimy glass backdoor. Impressive results!
(BTW, I realize the cooked little bird might be misconstrued as one of the robins, but it ain’t. It’s just a baked hen, I happen to be cooking and eating around the same time the critters come out to eat in my backyard today)
