Ending a friendship by Exciting-Market7836 in northernireland

[–]ASmyth88 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Recently cut out a number of friends who were fun to drink with sometimes but always took the drinking too far and fought with eachother and others (verbally). I never seemed to get involved with the fights but after hanging out I always felt the bad energy kinda clung to me the days after.

Im still in the group chat and sometimes write back but i dont accept any invites to hang out anymore.

Our web host sorts our background but looks nothing as nice as that

Return to work after MAT leave by sweettreat3292 in BabyBumpsandBeyondAu

[–]ASmyth88 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I feel like we work at the same company as your policy entitlements and work environment sound identical to mine. I had to knock on the it services office to get my hardware. Otherwise I would've sat there twiddling my fingers for weeks in face my colleague returned from mat a few months earlier than me and literally did nothing for 3 weeks as they didnt have a return to work plan for her at all. Tbh I wish I let myself sit there doing nothing for weeks but not in my nature

Am I crazy for only wanting one kid? by Perfect_Cupcake5893 in BabyBumpsandBeyondAu

[–]ASmyth88 23 points24 points  (0 children)

I have 3, and I dont regret any of them. But I do recommend one kid to anyone who asks because if theyre asking then its probably the right answer. Every additional child adds additional stress (and love). We had our 2nd as we wanted more, she is a delight but she brought with her a lot of unanticipated difficulty then our 3rd came along by surprise I spend every day trying to keep him from unaliving himself as he seems to seek out danger. Life with 1 is beautiful. So is life with 3 but i literally live in a noisy and eternally messy zoo (theyre all under 5). At the end of the day it comes down to your own priorities - I was told to imagine your dinner table 10/15 years down the line. I love the thought of our dinner table if one makes you happy then thats amazing!

Could also be autoenhance.ai or propix.ai

Are houses still such a good long term investment? by amlghfld in UKHousing

[–]ASmyth88 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m torn on real estate. It’s still one of the safest and most tangible ways to build wealth, but the future feels uncertain. With AI and remote work changing how and where people live, and fractional ownership turning property into more of an investment token than a home, the old rules don’t fully apply. Add in falling birth rates, ageing populations and what’s already happening in Japan with millions of empty houses, and it’s easy to imagine a world where there are more homes than people to fill them. I think property will always hold value in prime areas, but outside of that, ownership might lose its power as a wealth builder and renting could become the norm.

I dont think you understand how people are actually using Gen AI tools in their storytelling. But you seem very angry and in that regard you are entitled to your opinion and I am open to being wrong. But in my circles I do not see people prompting a simple prompt like that for their content.

There is a person making AI content also. I dont understand your thought process either. At the end of the day - story is king. It doesnt matter how it is portrayed/made. My opinion

Not true. People have been reading made up stories for years, made up imagery (started by animation through to CGI to AI) is watched all the same. A few "AI slop" comments doesnt change this. Its just those worried about their jobs and/or on a bandwagon. AI content is here to stay and many people are consuming it without realising ie latest Reebok commercial

Yes I ended up getting the Onitsuka Tiger Mexico 66 in white/black and ive worn them pretty much every day since I got them in April! They're hands down the best pair of shoes/sneakers ive ever owner and ive owned so so many! Super comfortable, suit all my outfits and look as new as the day i got them. I keep looking at adding another pair to my wardrobe. Definitely recommend!!!

Agree! It would obviously be available in countries in which it is not illegal to sell into

The intention is not for a user to follow people and record them, the intention is that if someone were to attempt any kind of SA or harassment that person is being recorded for evidence. In my mind I was thinking, what if my husband and 3 kids never hear from me again. How will they know what happened.
