It was nice while it lasted, but moderators won't give a shit about this until it's completely dead, and only used by bots.
You can also buy Colab Pro and Colab Pro+, which have fewer limitations and faster GPUs.
And this should work on an AMD GPU (I haven't tried it, I only have NVIDIA): https://github.com/AshleyYakeley/stable-diffusion-rocm
There are also many ways to run it in the cloud (and even more coming every hour!) I think this one is the most popular: https://colab.research.google.com/github/altryne/sd-webui-co...
That may be the case in many games, but in most games that were translated from Japanese, the reason is that Japanese is a much more compact language (many words are just 1 character long, for example) so the speed is OK in Japanese, but horribly slow in Western languages. A few devs actually increased the text speed for oversea releases, but most didn't.
They just take information out of (food-industry-sponsored) horrible studies, or just repeat the same old stuff they've been repeating since those first studies were published. That page even has the obligatory "stay active" in a "what to eat" recommendation. Five-star stuff.
No wonder we've all become obese since these studies and articles started to pop up...
It seems people are really sure that exercising a lot and not eating meat or whatever is the healthiest thing one can do, for weight and health reasons... But evidence says the complete opposite, most of the time.
People are so fascinated about the idea that exercise and certain foods are so good, that they don't even bother to check the studies and the evidence, they just know it's true for some reason. It doesn't matter that everyone you know is going to a gym or running (a million more times than, say, 50 years ago) and yet the populations are only getting more obese by the minute. Or how athletes are dying young and have many health issues everywhere... Or that indigenous people don't even hunt or do nothing at all for a week (between each hunting trip), and yet they are so thin and don't have cancer.
In other words, no one really knows yet if running several kilometers every day is good for you, or if it's actually killing you. And no one knows yet what exactly is "to eat correctly", though I'm pretty sure all the stuff we've read in those paid studies made in the last 100 years are just absolute garbage.
In any case, mGBA has nothing to do with VBA, so there's no reason why that statement would include it.
Personally, I've been using BGB for 10 years or so, and it's been great.
All the games mentioned in these comments are great, anyway. And I found some new ones to try now. :)

Everyone loves stories about how weird Japan is (especially the Japanese), so these stories should be taken with a grain of salt.
For anyone else interested, it definitely looks like it's using MAME, which is unfortunate, since it's one of the slowest and less accurate PSX emulators out there.
In any case, I'm sure the author will soon release the source code of all the GPL parts, if any ;)
(Windows 10, Chrome, i7-7700, GTX 1050.)
What emulator did you use for this? (I would suggest using DuckStation, it's a million times faster than any other and more compatible than most of them, only Mednafen may work better in a few games.)
I can't believe people still do this to animals in most countries...
You should at least name/link them somewhere...
I'm fine with you or anyone else being impressed with this, but for many others like me this isn't impressive at all. I believe anyone can produce drawings and paintings like these; even much younger kids, once you teach them this very simple grid method.
You say art is a subjective discussion and I agree. What we don't seem to agree on is what art is. Perfectly copying a photo by using a grid certainly isn't art to me. Or course, if he took any of those photos, then yes, we could subjectively discuss if he's a good artist or not, but his realistic drawings have nothing to do with that.
As it is, there's nothing notable in copying pictures with a simple method than anyone can follow very easily.
That sketch of a live girl shows his real skills and I found it to be much more interesting than his photocopying, even if it looks like a real 11-year-old's drawing. Thanks!
Kind of sad to see in every art subreddit just "human-photocopied" pictures being upvoted (extra points if you digitally color-picked all shades of color from the photography, besides the usual tracing of every line) instead of real, creative art...
Anyone can become a human copy machine with various simple methods. There's a reason why all of his pictures just look like a photograph with zero creativity. (The same reason why great painters stopped trying to achieve hyper-realism since~ van Gogh and the invention/popularization of the photographic camera...)
I only use "password" in random websites that force me to register (but that I'll never visit again).
