Grab your crayons, it’s coloring time

You have to be careful because it's an abrasive and some wall surfaces might not like it. It seems fine on the paints I've cleaned, though.

It's not printing. Message onscreen complains of incorrect paper size. Tell printer to print anyway.

It starts dumping the roll through, completely blank. Cancel just hangs. Power button does nothing. 10m of roll gone already.

Fuck it, I'll just manually roll it backwards onto the roll. I pull the power plug. I plug it back in.

First thing the plotter does is cut the paper off. Fuck.

TL;DR: My nieces and nephews are not short of paper for drawing on.

In the meantime though, some other artists that are giving away their coloring pages for free:

One of the big problems is that GANs can't generate files at a high enough resolution to make great coloring pages.

I then tried to make a neural network that would generate SVGs directly, which turns out to be really tricky too.

One thing that might work is to generate low resolution pages with a GAN, and then use an image to svg converter to make high resolution versions... maybe I'll try that next :)

To save parsing the links, that's "hacker", "slug", "bed", and "teleport", all of which have perfectly reasonable hits.

I literally can't think of a halfway plausible coloring page that isn't covered that way. (Kinda thought I'd win that on "teleport", but... yeah, nope. Slim pickings at one result, sure, but that's still one reasonable result!)

Of course, you're pretty much writing off copyright laws in the process. How much that bothers you is up to you.

Apparently in the early days of Google Ads, some clever people made large sums of money. Some were scammers, but many were just very clever opportunists who found a way. Sound like this woman figured it out!

Hope that helps!
