Remember screen savers?

Every time I turn my computer on, I get some silly (until I fixed it) over-photoshopped landscape, chosen for me by microsoft. A few weeks ago I got sick of that and set up a Stable Diffusion rendering options set, and had the AI produce me a ton of correctly formatted screen backgrounds.

That’s the idea for the app: it should look at the last something something of your browser history, pull keywords from the titles of pages you’ve viewed, and hand them to midjourney or something like that, then splash the results up on your screen. There is potential for hilarity – don’t run a system like that if you are plotting a murder.

Last night someone posted a LoRa of a “tiny house on wheels” style. I have to admit I’m kind of fond of those things, though I find the idea often pretentious. I was just done for the night, went to bed, couldn’t clear my mind, and came back to the computer to exercise the GPU a bit with the LoRa.

A hobbit’s tiny house on wheels:

(now I want to see Sauron’s house on wheels, but … stay focused, Marcus, stay focused…)

 

Then there was the Lego meme:

And I wondered if I could do something a bit non-cheesy. One of my background prompts involves zen gardens and tea houses. (AIs seem remarkably good at zen gardens)

I actually would not mind owning that! I would not want to drive around with it, since I doubt the shoji would hold up. But it’s pretty dang cool, I think. Then, I got silly. What if you did a tiny house of an already tiny house?

Walter White’s tiny house from Breaking Bad:

Then, as it often does, the AI surprised me and gave me an (unrequested!) interior view:

This is the base prompt I used for most of these:

<lora:Tiny_House_on_Wheels:1> a tiny house on wheels. (on wheels:1.9) (hobbit house:1.3) style.
masterpiece composition. background is forest

I had to emphasize the “on wheels” because I got a few tiny houses on tiny houses.
