its not to be a feather in a cap. its because if you don’t feed your shareholders you are breaking the law. growth IS inevitable, thats the entire backbone of the way this system is setup. Breaking even and providing a good product isn’t enough, you have to trend upward always.

if you are using Automatic1111 you can force CPU use still, just FYI, with a modification to the file located in */stable-diffusion-webui/webui-user.bat

set COMMANDLINE_ARGS= --use-cpu all --no-half --skip-torch-cuda-test --enable-insecure-extension-access

That’s what works for my PC anyway. Took me a while to figure that out so maybe you will get lucky and it will work for you as well. I only do this when I want to do things my 8Gb GPU can’t handle. The CPU is way slower than GPU, but not nearly as memory capped. (Dual Xeon E5-2630v4 2.2GHz , 64GB ram)

I just make a copy of webui-user.bat, rename it, make the above edit (if you want the browserr to launch automatically you can also you can also add in --autolaunch), then make a shortcut somewhere that points to the new file, and that shortcut is how i run A1111 in CPU only mode. Its non destructive this way, and you can still just use your normal startup method

AA sourced sobriety coins cost a LOT trust me. You dont ever want to have to find out. Not that they charge you for the coins (they do not), but whatever landed you in there likely cost you more than some online coins would, is my point.

You can probably just buy the coins online lmao

A lot of bars will give you free drinks if you give them your sobriety coin from AA.

Yeah I was really disappointed to see that email. They shouldn’t have any of my information any longer. Unfortunately I’m a citizen of the United States so we don’t have national level protections because our country doesn’t give a fuck about our information security or privacy

its just blatant virtue signalling, forget about it.

So is it

Again, the flavor was close to the organic article but not quite there, leaving me with an uncanny-valley feeling. Yet, when dabbed with the plant-based butter next to it on the plate, this faux fish was delicious overall.

or is it

Synthetic fish isn’t quite there yet—and may not be worth the effort

Because the article tells me both. Seems the effort is worth while when you consider the fact that salmon aren’t faring well as a species currently, due to overfishing. As a result, species which rely on salmon, such as orca whales, are also measurably suffering. So if it’s “overall delicious” and can save some damn whales, how is that “not worth the effort” ?

I had to ditch it becuase it’s a damn resource hog.

I can’t believe im a the privacy community, and someone is talking about Gboard like a normal product rather than trying to convince us it’s the actual devil.

People just want free stuff don’t let them confuse you

…anyway

Sorry.

Doesn’t matter. We don’t get that choice. Abide by the law or be illegal, it’s simple. If you opt to be illegal, I would suggest that entertainment media may not be the best line in the sand to draw. It’s not like stealing food to not starve to death. Just becuase you’re bored and feel entitled to be entertained does not mean that someone elsewhere should have to give up possible profit to do so.

To be clear, I’ve got no issues sailing the black season, like many of you, but I won’t be pretending I didn’t know, if I get caught. I recognize what’s legal and not. It’s part of being in a society.

They’re doing themselves absolutely no favors by trying to save archived copies of copyrighted media. It’s bullshit and they need to stop. It’s clearly against the law whether we like the law or not…

I think ass implants just look terrible

The slippers have their own cute charm though I’ll admit

Alternatively: file that fucker down then hit it with some sandpaper then a scouting pad, and worry less overall about it. Nail files would be fine even, just clean them with a hard bristled brush after. That metal should be pretty soft.
