  • This page talks about some of the options you have, some legit some pirated. You can get a few more years of support with these methods

  • Tear the band aid off so I can stop hearing god awful musings about how useful and insightful the slop machines are

  • More like children, they market themselves more towards middle school girls and younger

  • They are adding “AI” features in a collaboration with Intel, but luckily they’re minor additions like ML based noise reduction

  • I mean Bella ciao is an antifascist song, I’ve never heard it outside of that context. But I see your point I’m just not plugged in enough to know nick Fuentes use of the phrase

  • Something about this is so terrifying

  • I appreciate that. My sister and friends have shown up for me in a huge way these past few days. I’m someone who struggles with social anxiety so my circle is small and I’m not as close as I’d like to be with them, but they’ve treated me like family through this. I don’t think I’d be able to cope healthily without them

  • Thank you. I don’t think we’re gonna be able to work things out. I have still stood firm in my needs around the yelling thing and wanting to work it over with a therapist, and that led her to say that there is definitely no pause. So it’s over, but I feel a lot more equipped to handle it after all the advice in this thread. This was my first serious relationship and I’m terrified to put myself back out there in the future. I’ve got a lot of pieces I need to pick up but I feel better about doing that now.

  • You’re right I don’t want to put myself back in a situation where I can’t trust fully. I don’t want to wonder if every conflict will end this way. You give me some good points to think about, thank you for sharing your thoughts

  • Yes sorry for the stream of consciousness. Thank you for your insight; it’s hard to accept where it’s at but you’re right that it’s likely not worth the pain to try to mend something in this state

  • You’re right. I am planning to look into therapy for myself soon, I am starting a new job next week and once I’m paid I will take care of myself in that sense. It’s hard to commit to letting it go but I am making my peace with the situation. The first 72 hours after this surprise were just hard to navigate and I needed help; thank you to you and everybody else here for lending me that.

  • I appreciate that. We’re planning to see a therapist together soon to at least discuss what has happened since Friday to give us both closure. And you’re right, it is a blindside to me but clearly something she has been mulling for a while. I appreciate your kind words

  • Yes I worried about making this post in case people think I want to be told I’m right. I don’t want that at all, because I can’t possibly clue you all in on every detail and nuance. And I don’t want to paint her out unfairly. I just needed an outlet.

    I appreciate your outlook on what I wrote. It is very complicated and I was just feeling overwhelmed, so I am thankful for you and everybody else who’s commented for helping me reflect on it all

  • Thank you for your honest thoughts. I think I’ve known what you’re saying is right, I just can’t help but put on rose tinted glasses and reflect on when times were good. I appreciate your insight.

  • I’m dealing with similar emotions right now. I’m sorry you’re going through this. It is a beautiful thing to have loved and you will love again. But I know what it feels like to lose your other half. You will rebuild and there will be sunshine again

  • Yeah you’d really only say it on the theoretical side of things, I’ve definitely heard it in research and academia but even then people usually point to the particulars of their work first

  • It depends on the model but I’ve seen image generators range from 8.6 wH per image to over 100 wH per image. Parameter count and quantization make a huge difference there. Regardless, even at 10 wH per image that’s not nothing, especially given that most ML image generation workflows involve batch generation of 9 or 10 images. It’s several orders of magnitude less energy intensive than training and fine tuning, but it is not nothing by any means.

  • The training is a huge power sink, but so is inference (I.e. generating the images). You are absolutely spinning up a bunch of silicon that’s sucking back hundreds of watts with each image that’s output, on top of the impacts of training the model.
