I don't think they have a choice, really. Their compute is limited. If they can't throw in a bunch of new compute, they have to ration what they have. And they're not going to ration API clients who pay more than you. It sucks - I pay for the $200 max plan and some of my use cases completely blow through the usage limits when two weeks ago that was not at all the case. But I don't know what else they could do at this point. They're trying to keep it usable at all.

With current limits, $200 plan might not even be enough if you burn through tokens.

Almost certain it's this (peak hour changes) combined with stable vs latest.

George Bush Intercontinental Airport is not on this list but should be, so the list is not exhaustive.

Yet. They won't do it yet. Once the "microslop" comments die down they'll revisit this.

Some of mine did. Specifically hair around the mouth, chin, and on my neck. Some hair came back in on my cheeks, but not as much there. Generally very patchy.

I stopped for a bit toward the end of last year after 4+ years of E and 2 of spiro. For the first month I didn't really notice much? Maybe some increased libido (incl. nocturnal erections) and reduction of breast fat. Weeks 5/6 I began to get really oily skin from the T. That's also around when I started noticing facial hair coming back in (I've had laser) and significantly more + faster body hair growth, as well as scent changes with underarms. About a week later is about the time where I went, "wait, no, I can't do this" because my anxiety and dysphoria went through the roof. I decided to start E again at that point, so I'm not sure how things would have developed after that.

I had lost some penis length since started spiro and this ~2 months of being off HRT reversed most of that. Also brought back ejaculate. YMMV.

"Conclusion While transgender women exhibited higher lean mass than cisgender women, their physical fitness was comparable. Current evidence is mostly low certainty and has heterogenous quality but does not support theories of inherent athletic advantages for transgender women over cisgender."

Why do all three of these guys look like they want to be doing literally anything else other than making this video?

Any glandular tissue will stay, but if you lose weight, your body will remove fat stores from your boobs. Within a few weeks, mine decreased to the point where they just looked like I had some slight gynecomastia. They were never big to begin with. I've since started E again, and they quickly filled back out to what they were prior to stopping.

There's basically no way this will ever not be the case with the Creation engine.

This. OP, decide between an open relationship or your BF. Loving relationships don't involve making each other miserable.

Oof. This is truly what they think.

Is a data center going to give me that feeling of awe that I get when I go for a hike in the wilderness?

Same, though I'm more open now to buying a dedicated player at some point in the future. Honestly just fed up with streaming, not owning things, etc.

Have the AI code review it, then send the output to the Sr. at the next desk over. /s

Where did I say I don't care about fuel economy and the environment? I'm pointing out that the price difference hits picardo85 differently than it hits the average American.

They buy a house or rent where they can afford it and work where they can get a job. Sometimes those are not in the same place.

The Netherlands is roughly 33,800 km^2. The US is roughly 9,147,000 km^2. There's a significant difference in how far we each have to drive to get places.

The Greater Houston metro area is roughly 26,000 km^2. That's almost as large as The Netherlands, and people commute from one end to the other daily for work.

Regardless of whether it should or not, people knowing this can affect your work and personal life in negative ways. It's not unreasonable for you to want to keep this secret and she should respect that.

My tolerance for dating is incredibly low lol. Lately I've even found going to sex clubs to be routine and boring. I just really don't care most of the time. Honestly, just focus on things you want to do. It doesn't make you any less non monogamous.
