Though applications in image generation are more than feasible, the development of the technology has seen some serious leaps, especially when you realize that some already use Stable Diffusion to create avatar representatives. So, what can one make of all of this?

At the very least, you can delve into multiple facets of the subject. This includes how to use Stable Diffusion to create doubles, as well as a look into the tech behind it. The whole thing can be undoubtedly complex, so you might want to stick around for a comprehensive look.  [Read more…]

How to force Windows to create a new System Restore Point every day

Posted on December 19, 2022

System Restore is a handy tool that you can use to restore your PC’s Windows installation back to a previous (working) state if a virus or some other issue causes your computer to stop working as it should.

I’ve personally used System Restore to quickly get myself out of a lot of jams in the past, usually after installing a program or app that I was asked to test and review.

While it’s not as comforting as having a recent System Image Backup on hand, knowing that I can usually use System Restore to get my computer up and running again in a hurry if disaster ever strikes is great for my peace of mind.  [Read more…]

Question from Stephanie:  I’m the office manager for a medium-sized wholesale floral distributor.

Including myself, we have nine people working in our office, and each of us have identical Dell Business desktop computers.

These computers came with Windows 7 Pro but I upgraded all of them to Windows 10 bit back when the upgrade was free.

I’ve been creating weekly System Image backups for each computer but I just learned that I need to create a System Repair Disc too so if anything happens I’ll be able to boot the PC to the Recovery Options screen.

My question is do I need to create a separate System Repair Disc for each of the nine computers or will the same one work for all of them?  [Read more…]
