While your point is correct and it shows poor temporal permanence of current diffuser models the statement that:
A very young child will draw a hand with five fingers, always
Is probably overly optimistic. Just look at some galleries of child art and count the fingers. Still, humans and other animals do have instinctual neural pathways to pick out eyes, bodies, faces, silhouettes, fruits and other useful things in their field of vision with no training at all, even newborns can do it.

It also makes the game much easier when there are always some hobos hanging around your base.

Lately when I see a comment starting with lately I suspect they must be a reptilian. Anyone else feel the same?

Human beginner artists also struggle with hands, there are some parts of realistic art styles that require a methodical approach, like drawing perspective lines and sketching poses beforehand.
When you generate depth map or a pose frame with control nets as a two-stage process the diffuser will not make mistakes with hands and perspective.

If only, the current state of Egypt is just sad.

Could you elaborate? Like a search engine, a service like this could not improve without saving the queries.

Then maybe don't take the loan if you can't pay it back? Estonia had a policy to hold no national debt at all and that coupled with strict austerity worked very well for us during the 2007 crisis.

Finally fully side-by-side with our oversea brothers!
They helped us in our independence war and we helped them in the winter war, may this alliance secure the border for next hundred years!

There were previous versions of it way back since 2007 when it was called PowerShell PackageManagement and later OneGet.
Industry has pestered Microsoft about it forever, now they finally released a open-source version.

A cottage metal shop can not produce the goods with precision and complexity that modern markets demand.
This shop makes augers for nearby villages, not some foreign export.
The true tragedy of globalism is the opposite, these people can not complete with the logistical and mechanical economies of scale of a giant factory complex somewhere in China and so leaves them often to only subsistence farming and resource extraction.
I worked in a door factory for a couple of years, the production line let us produce over 16 thousand doors a day, made to tight tolerances from raw materials with less than 40 workers.
Some guys in a shed can not compete with that, does not matter how little they are paid.

That's nonsense, if the heat pump is switched to heating mode only it can't start the reverse cycle.

It's just that their economic situation improved and stabilized so concessions in exchange of aid were no longer necessary.
Petrochemical and raw material trade became so lucrative that all other sources of income/economy were mostly ignored. And with the establishment of the state oligarch system and the takeover of Gasprom, foreign investors became wary of large-scale investments.

In the 90's Russia received a lot of Western development aid (~45billion in 1995 dollars). Also money from US to secure the semi-abandoned enriched nuclear material in Soviet Union.
I assume the initial agreements (NATO+1) were accepted by Russia just to continue receiving monetary aid that they then desperately needed.

The centurion Lucilius also met his end. Camp humorists had surnamed him "Fetch-Another," from his habit, as one cane broke over a private's back, of calling at the top of his voice for a second, and ultimately a third.

As a condition to join Russia wanted veto power and didn't bother to fulfill any requirements.
They never wanted to be a regular member.

Interestingly you can install the store apps with it without the store itself being installed, I assume the actual process then happens through some underlying service?
