  • With the free tier of ChatGPT you hit output limits pretty much immediately. And with the fact that money is running out for OpenAI, I am willing to say the time for free LLMs and image gen models is not going to last too long. There is a reason why Gemini fucking sucks in the free tier, and somehow Copilot sucks even when paying (I am not crazy enough to pay for Copilot, I have it with a work license).
























  • While it worked for you, this is a common negative feedback loop for many.

    It is extremely easy to fall into mental health crisis this way. This exact loop is heavily shared in online fat support groups and most of the times doesn’t actually do anything to reach the person’s body objective, it just shatters self esteem further and makes reaching behavior that would help harder while the same coping mechanism they are hating remains.

    I am glad you seem to imply you are in a state you prefer now, but as you might have understood this is generally unsustainable for many people.


  • Because this is not promotion of obesity. Nobody is being advertised to be fat from the grand majority of fat lib individuals, unless the person is radicalized. Quite the contrary, where it is asked to let people that are already fat or want to be to be let be themself and receive the same respect as everyone else. It is asking for bodily autonomy and not be insulted and/or negatively stereotyped for their size. It is asking not to put being of normal BMI on a pedestal in all aspects of life, as discrimination on body size is present in many aspects of it.

    It is not advertised or pushed to fat people that want to lose weight to just refuse that wish to lose weight as that is their bodily autonomy in effect. HEAS (Health at Every Size) wants access, compassion, autonomy and informed consent being given as finds it an improvement in the health of everyone at every size, no matter if fat or not. It doesn’t want to completely remove weight loss from healthcare. This is especially relevant in places where healthcare is not public.
