Hey, I'm the original author here. I didn't want to do BTC for two reasons: 1) I'm already WAY over exposed on crypto in my portfolio 2) I consider energy burn on mining to be part of a "zero sum helps no one" situa

I'm the original author. I'm not sure why you got down-voted for this, this was absolutely a "tax dodge". The polite term is "tax mitigation strategy", I'm also not sure why this is seen as an openly nega

Nope BMI is just a "weight to height" ratio ( https://www.nhlbi.nih.gov/health/educational/lose_wt/bmitool... ) This can lead to some funny errors in edge cases, like Mr.Universe Arnold being morbi

So there are a few questions that leap out at me: * What are you using for image generation? Is that local as well (stable diffusion?) Does it have integrated prompt generation? * You mention the ability to import ChatGPT history,

Something I'm learning from reading the comments is that the culture has moved in what it calls a "scam" In my mind, and from my background, a scam is a pretty brutal outright fraud. You buy a toaster and they send you a box
