News : Debian Grml 2025.08 - codename Oneinonein.

Grml 2025.08 live distro for system administrators is now available for download based on the Debian 13 “Trixie” operating system series.

I used debian distros and are very good.

Grml is a Debian-based live Linux distribution tailored for system administrators. It’s designed to run directly from a USB stick or CD/DVD without installation, making it ideal for rescue tasks, system recovery, and quick deployments.

Grml uses the Debian package system APT to manage software. Another tool is grml-live Build System that allows users to create custom Grml images.

Grml is a Debian based live system focusing on the needs of system administrators. The 2025.08 release provides fresh software packages from Debian trixie. As usual it also incorporates up to date hardware support and fixes known bugs from previous Grml releases.

News : perchance website - test , development note ...

I tested today the perchance with empty data and give me one result.

Also, the development team say on this development note on webpage - 8 august 2025:

Image Gen Update (August 8th)

I'm in the middle of updating the text gen model (used for story/chat/etc) and it turns out it's going to cost a bit too much.

I need to temporarily reduce the quality and speed of image gen so I can deploy the new text gen.

Image gen was already mediocre in terms of quality and speed, I know. And to add to the annoyance, you'll probably need to update your prompts to get back to the same styles. Sorry about that.

There may be some initial bugginess with this update - please bear with me while I fix any issues that come up. Edit: Currently there's an issue where prompts are being ignored sometimes, resulting in random/weird/nonsense images. I'm working on fixing it.

Once I'm finished with the text gen update, I'll get back to optimizing the image gen. It should be possible to get it down to a few seconds per image after a couple of months of work.

Aside: Thank you to those who don't block the advert - the AI stuff on Perchance would very literally be impossible without you. Of course, some people have no choice (e.g. network-level blocking that they don't control), and some people don't have any ads load for them due to the country they're from (e.g. sanctions, low advertising demand, etc.) or other issues like that. Either way, I'm working as hard as I can to optimize the models so Perchance can always be completely free and unlimited for everyone.

Let's see the result with empty data:
