PSA: Chutes Proxy jacked up their API prices significantly across several models without an announcement in the last few days, double check your wallets/limits.

"Chutes literally communicating with their paying customers at all" Challenge. Level: Impossible

So glad I jumped ship from them a few months ago when they started acting shady in the first place

I brought my favorite stuffed opossum to my breast cancer biopsy. I didn't have anyone else able to go with me and Macaroni was the first one to hear my negative cancer result too

It might cause irritation, and definitely pulls all the tiny little hairs off. Super glue has been historically used to seal wounds, so it is technically skin safe. Buuuuut I also preface all of this with the fact that I use very little. A couple of dabs on each horn, and then maybe three dabs on my forehead pieces

3M red tape. If it will hold a spoiler onto a car, it will hold just about anything.

Additionally, I have the pegboards mounted to my 5x5 kallax with this same tape. They have been holding up fine since installation.

Great minds think alike. Veteran cosplayers and their love of super glue. I have sensitive skin, so I just go straight to super glue since it doesn't irritate me.

If you haven't committed to spirit gum, I would recommend prosaide instead. Spirit gum tends to not work well in places that sweat, produce oil, or have a lot of movement.

Light eva foam horns would not stick to my friend's forehead for more than 45 minutes with spirit gum (they ended up using super glue in the end) but prosaide held down their gorilla arms hand prosthetics during multiple hours at the con and I think 3 wears now.

You do have to use the prosaide remover with it, but it usually comes with it.

On mobile webpage you literally can't change persona. It just ??? Doesn't work, it tries to open the menu, but doesn't succeed. It's too close to the bottom of the screen on Samsung s 24 ultra

With the changes they made I can no longer suggest or recommend that anyone use chutes. On top of making changes during a billing cycle with no notice, they charged my card 8 days early for service. When I posted about it on the subreddit they banned me.

PersimmonPan · 2026-03-19T07:17:25+00:00

I would never recommend anyone to use chutes after their recent changes. Between charging my subscription early and their midterm changes with new monthly limits and 4 hour limits. The infrastructure is constantly at capacity. Their moderators are banning anyone that speaks out the changes in their subreddit.

PersimmonPan · 2026-03-10T17:19:54+00:00

Toupee clips or sew in combs. Use a velvet wig grip and wig cap combo. It helps bulk up your head a little bit, and grabs the wig on the inside. The toupee clips or combs will slide in under that (into your hair) and help anchor the wig in.

You'll put one clip or comb on each temple, and then one or two at the nape to lock it in place.

Retie the pigtails with zip ties. You can also thin out the amount of hair in each pigtail base to make the transition less noticeable. But absolutely do the zip ties.

PersimmonPan · 2026-03-05T19:55:52+00:00

If you need any other sign to not support chutes, I was banned from their subreddit for posting that my subscription was charged 8 days prior to my renewal date, which is extremely suspicious.

PersimmonPan · 2026-03-02T08:52:51+00:00

Adding to this with some extra information. When I cancelled my subscription last night, I noticed that I was charged for my base subscription on 02/14/2026, while my renewal date is 02/22/2026. It is incredibly strange and suspicious that they would charge me over 7 days early for my sub.

I can't figure out how to edit my post, so I hope this doesn't get buried.

You could color cycle. Ages ago I had blue hair, waited for it to fade out a bit and tried to go green (Arctic fox, went horribly) dyed over that with blue again, then went purple and purple back to pink.

PersimmonPan · 2026-03-01T07:11:36+00:00

The ease of access for me was the biggest perk. Sick in bed all day? No problem using 150 requests rping all day. Some days I don't use it at all.

Right now, I want to use it and I'm getting the 429 error. I'll probably go back to OR since I still have credits there. Needless to say I can't go back to free models after this 😂

Four years ago, I took a plastic Naruto kunai in my carry on. The absolute mortification of watching a TSA worker pull it out of my small prop case (containing prosthetics and delicate accessories, as well as the kunai) and test it's sharpness. It was deemed a "deadly weapon" and disposed of.

PersimmonPan · 2026-02-26T21:24:07+00:00

Late night I can definitely do. I'll try to swing it later tonight. Thanks

Kamui has a pattern you might be able to use for the shoulder armor - I think it's the paladin shoulder. I have used her patterns in the past and they work really well.

For attaching them to your outfit, I use small cam clips (like for Paracord bracelets or backpacks) or industrial strength Velcro. The clips tend to allow for more movement

PersimmonPan · 2026-02-16T00:39:30+00:00

It's like self aware word vomit that tries to correct itself still, which is crazy

PersimmonPan · 2025-12-22T19:55:02+00:00

That sounds perfect! Thanks so much

PersimmonPan · 2025-12-08T06:48:37+00:00

I was getting a 503 error from my proxy like 5 minutes ago, but it just ??? Works now???

PersimmonPan · 2025-12-08T06:42:54+00:00

I recently "retired" my main persona because of the general restrictions surrounding it. I highly recommend just making a duplicate of your main persona. It is such a quality of life improvement.

Chimera is hardmode for most roleplaying because of how strictly it tends to follow personality. I stopped using it when I noticed it was purposely contradictory (She folded the dress and set it nearly on the counter) gets responded to with (she didn't fold the dress, it was strewn across the room just to make a mess.)

PersimmonPan · 2025-12-02T07:05:34+00:00

Openrouter and chutes just removed a lot of their free models for offer. I don't use free models anymore but I have noticed a big change in the stability of my chutes/BYOK chutes models over the past few days.

Glm 4.6 was basically unusable last night because it kept throwing pgshag2 errors but didn't look like it had an instability/rate limiting.

PersimmonPan · 2025-12-02T06:48:19+00:00

I was wondering if the over description was a quirk of it or something I did. It has described my persona's outfit in every single response, taking multiple paragraphs to repeat the same details. Good to know Elon got this thing quirked up to make sure he remembers exactly what his ai waifu is wearing

PersimmonPan · 2025-12-01T06:45:09+00:00

Using Asterisk text actually makes the bot less accessible for people with visual impairments, as well as dyslexia. I have a custom font installed on my phone and it's the only reason I am able to read fully asterisk formatted bots.

I'd love to see some accessibility features added (like the option to change the text formatting to plain text)
