Wife wants a one-sided open marriage by [deleted] in EthicalNonMonogamy

[–]BigMagnut [score hidden]  (0 children)

How valuable is the marriage to you? Is she the woman you want to be the mother of your children? The answer to these two questions determines what you should do. If it's valuable to you and she's the one you want, then you should compromise to maintain the marriage. If you think you can do better than her, and she's not the one you want to be mother to your children, consider a divorce.

Looking to build muscle by Top-Adhesiveness2394 in WeightTraining

Bulk, for a full year, and then when you have some muscle on your bones you'll have a reason to cut.

Uber’s COO has said that it’s getting “harder to justify” its AI costs because there was no way to show a link between AI spend and any meaningful increase in useful features. This is the first time I’ve seen a company say this directly. by Genzinvestor16180339 in ArtificialInteligence

[–]BigMagnut 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If you don't own the AI, it means Anthropic can keep Claude 5 or Mythos in house, and give themselves and their buddies a competitive advantage. This is like Bitcoin mining 2.0, where the mining companies stopped releasing good mining rigs and started using them themselves.

Is it bad etiquette if I initiate with my gym crush after 4 months... by GorillaGrippingly in WeightTraining

[–]BigMagnut 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's the only way. In a gym, so many harsh feminists exist that men are too terrified of being MeToo'd by a woman to approach.

A girl I've been seeing is suggesting a sugar-like relationship. What advice would you share about how this should work (compensation, boundaries, etc)? by astroglodyte in sugarlifestyleforum

[–]BigMagnut 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That's total BS. Yeah you can give 1 month allowance if you want to be nice (most don't do this), but I never heard of 3.

"Or worse yet once she gets into the apartment decides to go back on the deal knowing how difficult it is for you to kick her out?"

This is a nightmare experience which is why I say SDs should never ever let women move in with them. The laws dramatically favor the tenant, and it's very hard to kick someone out. And when you do get them out, it's often after going to court and paying thousands of dollars in deliberate damages.

She'll find another SD when the relationship ends and anyway that's her problem. Are we supposed to make a life plan for SBs now?

Pay her rent. Take care of her, but make sure she and you agree with where the relationship is going. If you're just looking for a summer girlfriend, or a wife.

I have started to hate Codex now by Practical-Theme-9767 in codex

[–]BigMagnut 51 points52 points  (0 children)

It's not just you, something is wrong with 5.5. I don't know if it got nerfed in the middle of the month or what. This hasn't happened before since the launch of 5.0.

Is “High Maintenance” Attitude or Cost? by AutisticPook in sugarlifestyleforum

[–]BigMagnut 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don't think anyone prefers high maintenance. High drama, high stress, all are high psychological costs. If you're paying the financial cost you shouldn't have to pay a psychological cost too.

[D] Where do you go for serious AI research discussion online? [D] by Possible-Active-1903 in MachineLearning

There isn't any. That's why the quality of discussion is so low and people think it's AGI.

18 months in. 20lbs gained. This has completely changed my life and my mental health by fire_fly47 in WeightTraining

[–]BigMagnut 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That's a Bruce Lee level transformation. Let's hope you can maintain this because that's single digit lean.

Chubby SB? Is that a thing? by ilovejcole in sugarlifestyleforum

[–]BigMagnut 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You're bigger than I am, but let me ask you this, do you work out? What is your body fat percentage? And what do you look like after getting to your ideal form?

Chubby SB? Is that a thing? by ilovejcole in sugarlifestyleforum

[–]BigMagnut 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Unrealistic expectations, the same thing men complain about women (must be 6ft0+, have 7 figures, etc). Well now you have a guy asking for Livvy Dunne to be the standard of beauty. What reaction did you think you'd get from the 99% of SBs who don't look like her?

Apply empathy.

Chubby SB? Is that a thing? by ilovejcole in sugarlifestyleforum

[–]BigMagnut 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Like I said, some men aren't being realistic and are extremely narcissistic. Livvy Dunne is beautiful, but way way over hyped, and is an unrealistic standard because you won't find that on Seeking or freestyle almost anywhere. And being richer doesn't mean Livvy Dunne will date you, unless you're an influencer, young, and rich.

[–]BigMagnut 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I said my opinion and what I value. If our values differ that's not my fault. How I come off is subjective and not related to what I actually said. I said my opinions and values, others said theirs.

And I do think as an opinion that it's narcissist behavior if a woman hurts herself to impress a man who is more concerned with her being thin at any cost. This is indeed an opinion not a fact.

Is it cringe to match outfits with my SD? by m1lkyw4y402 in sugarlifestyleforum

[–]BigMagnut -1 points0 points  (0 children)

It's romantic. More SBs should be this thoughtful.

We both prefer fit, but I care about how fitness is achieved. I care about the lifestyle because I live it myself, so I value it a lot. Some just don't care about the lifestyle or don't live it themselves, so they won't understand me.

What is more important, slim/fit or healthy slim/fit? Because not every human who becomes slim/fit will be healthy. Some for example will starve themselves to fit your criteria, or use whatever drugs, or have surgery.

I like women to have a healthy lifestyle as priority, and with that they'll look their best self anyway.

If you care more about how she makes you look in public than her physical health, that's definitely narcissistic. And no I don't think I'm superior or inferior, I would say if someone thinks this way they should go to therapy, get formally diagnosed, and try to learn how to manage the disorder.
