That depends on your priorities I guess. As long as we have compatible ideals and treat others similarly, then I’d give it a shot. I don’t necessarily want a partner who knows history or geography, just one that’s a good person I get along with and one that shares interests with me.

On a side note, I’d personally refrain from calling anyone dumb. Schools aren’t perfect and this person has lived a whole life just like you. They have learned things, just not the same things. If they’re a 10/10, I imagine they probably know a lot about health, fitness, fashion, and maybe makeup. Those are all valid and useful things to know.

They all vary pretty wildly from what I’ve heard. The one I spent 2 weeks in was mind-numbingly boring. No phones, no internet, and one hour of the wards ipad a day. The only saving grace was that I stole a water damaged deck of playing cards from some volunteer guy at the hospital I was initially put in before they transferred me. I played solitaire probably a couple thousand times over 2 weeks.

Other than that, you pretty much just talk with other people there and watch TV. They did some kind of activity every day and if you didn’t it would take longer to get out. The activities were dumb little arts and crafts nonsense and a bunch of coloring. After a few days though, anything is better than nothing.

In the ward I was in, medication was an issue for me. They put me on haldol and I had a really bad reaction to it, but the staff didn’t believe me until I couldn’t move and was in a lot of pain. Generally the staff doesn’t care much and will ignore lots of what you or anyone else says.

You could make lots of jello. Easy, tastes good, fills you, and there’s nearly no calories. I personally just drink water when I crave snacks.

Yeah, I get what you’re saying. My therapist has said something similar. That said, these things will never have no emotional toll. Nothing in life is free. To be totally detached isn’t being there for someone and that wouldn’t be the right way to handle these situations either.

I appreciate the advice and the time you spent on it, but I do what I do because it’s what the person I want to be would do. Until I don’t want to be the kind of person that cares about even the people that have done wrong by me, I’m gonna keep doing it. I still live my life, pursue my goals, and take care of myself. I just sacrifice a little energy and peace of mind for the people in my life that need it when they need it.

It’s really not a healthy way to live. Plenty of people have told me to cut back on it, including two therapists. I’ve kinda understood that view, but I get stuck at the question of who is worth being there for and who isn’t.

I don’t burn bridges with anyone. I grew up very isolated and alone and decided early in life to never be part of making people in my life feel that way.

I was the only one to visit my mom at the psych ward despite it being far and us not getting along.

I picked up an abusive ex from a date that had gone terribly wrong late at night.

I stayed on the phone with another toxic ex for a few hours as they nervously went home from a party in a bad area.

There’s lots more examples and it’s pretty much always a pain in the ass, but everyone should have someone to go to. I’m not necessarily nice or dishonest about my feelings, but I won’t leave people hanging.

I mean sure, an imaginary LLM that exceeds the fundamental limitations of the technology could be convincing, but then that’s not an LLM. LLMs are statistical models, they don’t know anything. They use stats calculated from training data to guess what token should follow another. Hallucinations cannot be eliminated because that would require it to be capable of knowing things and then it would have to be able to error check itself rationally. In other words, it would have to be intelligent.

Odds are, starting out with a fresh blog will be pretty slow to build up any kind of regular readership. You gotta do it because you’re passionate about the topics and enjoy writing. You won’t need to worry about AI if you have both of those traits, because you’re doing it for the sake of your own creative expression and it will naturally have a human quality that can’t be emulated.

One unlimited day. I already don’t drink most nights and I rarely ever use the unlimited day.

No alcohol at home. 4 drinks a day max except once a month. I’m still an alcoholic and I don’t plan to quit drinking, but my therapist and I think I’ve got it under control after 3 years of these rules.

It depends on where you are, but the huge grids of Manhattan can definitely be windy. They’re essentially big straight channels with nothing to block an air current.

100% Lemmy. If I end up on reddit, it’s because I googled something.

Coffee and bacon, egg, and cheese on a plain bagel. I eat that pretty much every work day.

Let go of any fear of others expectations for you as soon as you can. Explore what interests you and don’t let others stop you. People come and go, but they’ll come to you faster than they leave if you’re a confident and passionate person. You can only be that if you work on figuring out how you want to live and chase that life.

I went roughly 2 weeks without food after I got out of the hospital from a severe head injury. I tried to eat, but I temporarily lost my sense of taste and my brain hallucinated this absolutely terrible taste in its place. Even my saliva and the inside of my mouth had this taste. In the hospital I mostly got my nutrients via IV.

It’s a bit of both. I’m a photographer and I like to think of my outfits like photos, especially when I’m going somewhere where I plan to network. I want to present myself as someone with a good sense of style and who knows how to make people look good. So my style is my own, but I try to make sure I look good and fit the vibe of where I’m going.

I recently went to a party focused on some spiritual stuff and to match the vibe I got some 3/4 harem pants, but I got ones with a slightly muted floral pattern to make it my own. I made the rest of my outfit plain and dark to match and really emphasize the new pants. It was a style a bit outside my comfort zone, but was a big hit and I got lots of compliments.

I’m 28. I hang out with one friend at least 1-3 times a week. I see the rest of them once every few months, but we’re all in discord pretty frequently. I also have friends in the local kink scene I see relatively often depending on how many events I go to.

Yeah. Not because they were dying for a new crpg, but because they heard it was the highest quality game to come out in years. I don’t think most of them would buy a hypothetical BG4 and a few have already said they wouldn’t.

It’s anecdotal, but a lot of my friends got bg3 simply because everyone said it was such an amazing, well made game. Most of them never finished a run and said it’s good, but not for them. I actually think it’s not impossible that the genre really isn’t that popular and the game performed so well because most AAA games aren’t made with that level of passion and creativity anymore.
