I mean sure, it's true there's still ambiguous usage. But that doesn't change the fact that hard drive manufacturer use the powers of 1000, which is what the previous comment was about.

No, the powers of 1024 are called "Kibibyte (KiB)", " Mebibyte (MiB) and "Gibibyte (GiB)" (those are called "binary prefixes"). Gigabyte is 1000^3. This is why hard drive manufacturers use Gb instead of Gib, because it lets them sell a smaller drive with the same number before the prefix (2 TB < 2 TiB).
Prior to 1998, it was ambiguous, and some usages of the metric prefixes to denote 1024^n persist to this day (hello Windows). But nowadays any usage of 1024^n should absolutely use the binary prefixes.

You try to land on the moon but you just keep missing for some reason. So you go to read alien scriptures on some hourglass or whatever

That's literally the same way with any other base. We just defined orders of magnitudes to be multiples of 10 because we use base 10. We could just as well have used other multiples.

Try Liftoff, it's pretty good! (Might not be as feature-complete yet though)

Yes it's the same for me. It's degrades the experience a lot, I hope they figure it out

You can use Stable Horde to prompt from a collection of volunteers running Stable Diffusion. This is a nice front-end for it
Those who contribute to the horde get credits to obtain results faster, so there is a queue (currently 3-4 minutes)
