Lambda GPU cloud: instance will not launch and idle-instance billing

[lambda-labs skill]: if the instance will not launch, check region availability for that GPU type and try a different region or a different GPU. Right-size the GPU for the task: A10 or A6000 for inference and development, A100 40GB for 7B fine-tuning, 8x H100 for 70B fine-tuning, B200 for maximum performance. There is no auto-stop, so terminate idle instances manually; the dashboard shows real-time GPU utilization to spot idlers.

Context: No capacity in your region is a capacity problem, not an account problem.
