🖥️ System & Python
uname -a
Linux d0m 6.1.0-kali9-amd64 #1 SMP PREEMPT_DYNAMIC Debian 6.1.27-1kali1 (2023-05-12) x86_64 GNU/LinuxFresh virtual env with Python 3.10:
python3.10 --version
Python 3.10.11📸 Dataset & Compute
Collected ~150 images of myself and rented Google compute to train the model.
🧠 Model Choice
I used the following base checkpoint instead of the default from DreamBooth_Stable_Diffusion_SDA.ipynb:
dreamlike-art/dreamlike-photoreal-2.0Link: https://huggingface.co/dreamlike-art/dreamlike-photoreal-2.0
✅ Proof it’s running
🧩 Side Quest: GPT‑4 GUI on Kali
Also managed to install a GPT‑4 GUI tool on Kali. Way less messy than the Stable Diffusion bits.
📝 Notes to Self
- Keep Python pinned (3.10 worked fine here).
- Save the env YAML/requirements next time to rebuild faster.
- Screenshots live in my
xsisecbucket; keep filenames simple.
That’s it — minimal drama, finally working.
