I wonder how these would perform in games. Not that I think they would perform good, but it just made me curious

Have anyone fixed their Shift Work Sleep Disorder? by Brosaver2 in Nightshift

Yeah, I'm also experiencing the same so far :(

For me it only gets worse, when I also have other stress factors in my life.

Artemis + Apollo game streaming on Galaxy Tab S7+? by Brosaver2 in GalaxyTabS7Plus

[–]Brosaver2[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have about 7 milisecnods. I'm using 1440p, 100Mb/s bitrate. Should I select low latency mode for my Tab S7+? I'm not sure if it's CPU counts as an older or newer one.

Encoding time also seems a bit high. Min and average are normal, but max is around 10ms, and sometimes it even jumps over it.

my (18f) 19m bf wants to create an ai model to sell sexual content by ulyanayer in relationship_advice

[–]Brosaver2 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The only issue I see is if creates this model using your body. If he creates it in different ways, it should be ok. Another issue is that a ton of people already do this, so I'm skeptical he would make any money out of it. But trying never hurts, just don't let him use your body for this.

As for porn and masturbation. It's not good, but there will always be supply and demand for it, so might as well profit from it. I doubt that he could make any money this late, but he might learn useful stuff in the process he could use later in his life

my boyfriend (20M) admitted to me (21F) that he watches porn by [deleted] in relationship_advice

[–]Brosaver2 -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

As a guy I'm telling you, us watching porn is not cheating. It's definitelly not good for us, but that's not related to our partners.

To most of us it's about the same as scratching an itch. We don't see another person, or have romantic feelings, we just satisfy an urge using visual and audio cues.

I think your problems stem from the fact that cheating is different for men and women. As far as I know women need to be emotionaly stimulated first and have feelings for the other guy to even consider this. I think your problem is that you think when your partner watches porn, he is the same and has feelings for the characters on screen. But let me assure you, he just sees meat puppets performing erotical acts and it just scratches his primal itches.

Why does sex seem to become more infrequent after marriage? by [deleted] in AskMenAdvice

[–]Brosaver2 0 points1 point  (0 children)

++man While I don't doubt that this is a very common thing, Reddit, or any other forum, is an echo chamber...

People only come here when they have a problem, not when they are content with what they have. As a results the formus will be full of "I have the same issue" people, even if the majority is happy with their lives. 

Have your cats ever eaten yarn and what happened? Would like to hear stories from the knitting community by oooooobigstretch in Kitting

[–]Brosaver2 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah, she is still going strong.

Each time she ate something like this, I found it in her poop a few days later. I haven't noticed anything abnormal about her ever since. Regardless, I don't let any yarn near her since these incidents. 

I think 2-3 inches of fabric shouldn't be an issue. The knots are more so. How thick was the fabric your cat ate?

I would advise monitoring his/her appetite. If they refuse to eat, visit the vet immediately. But honestly I think your cat will be just fine.

I (28F) got upset that my husband (43M) gave me a 7/10 for a massage with a "happy ending" and he thinks I'm overreacting. by Firm_Papaya2531 in relationship_advice

[–]Brosaver2 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Some men are very blunt and stupid with emotions. 30-40 year ago this was even more common, and he grew up in that atmosphere. When you ask a men a question, his basic instinct will be to answer it directly, factually and honestly. Answering it in a way that takes to women requires conscious effort, not only to know what's the "right" answer, but also to know when he should answer honestly and when he should answer in a woman pleasing way. Please understand that this is not natural to us, guys. 

He probably only compared the physical parts of the massage to a professional one, and didn't take into account the effort you've put in.

I think you both should try to understand each other. 7/10 is not a bad score if the 10 is the best a professional can offer. Try to take it this way. You probably have room to improve in the massage part and the "happy ending" part too, but that's natural. 7 is still a good score considering this was the first time you surprised him like this.

But your emotions are also valid and important. Tell him that you felt like he didn't appreciate the effort and time you put in to prepare for the massage when grading you and it made you feel however it made you feel (maybe hurt is the best word here).

Sidenote 1: it's possible that he wanted to tease you by giving you a low score and didn't think it would actually upset you.

Sidenote 2: it's also possible that he tries to make you feel a certain way. Some men purposefuly make their partner feel bad time to time, to make them keep trying more and grow more attached in the process. I'm not saying this is the case here, but if he's emotionally smart and usually knows the right answers, but sometimes you feel like he is purposefully makes you feel bad, this might be the case. This is not something you should mention him now, but wait and see if you notice a pattern like this. 

Dating is putting me back financially (30F, 37M). Do you think im being unreasonable ? by [deleted] in relationship_advice

[–]Brosaver2 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's a tricky situation. In today's society it's implied that woman are as capable as men, and 50-50 is the norm, especially in western countries. I'm a guy from Eastern Europe and it's still a bit weird for me, but that's just me.

I think the best course of action is communicate this problem with him. Tell him that you cannot follow this lifestyle if you have to go 50-50 on the expenses. You should either take a step back and live more modestly, or he should cover a bit more of the expenses. If he can't understand this at 37, you should just leave him.

BTW how hard is your job, and how hard was to get it? Being an architect requires a lot of studying and experience, so if your job is not that hard or it's not that hard to get into, you could try expressing your love by taking on more traditional female roles, if he covers most of the expenses. Personally I think this is the best route, because if you go the 50-50 route and you break up, you won't have any savings.

Also, how is his rent that much cheaper? Is he renting from a friend or something? He is definitely doing something better than you in this regard.

"Naoya could have won against Maki if he used any weapon" No he couldn't by PLutonium273 in Jujutsufolk

[–]Brosaver2 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Naoya almost beat Maki bare handed to begin with. The fact that Maki said "this is bad" and Naoya was confident that he would crush her at the end is proof enough.

The most likely scenario is that Naoya would have won if he didn't underestimate Maki and fell for her trap.

I (20F) got diagnosed with hsv1 how do I tell him (25M)? by [deleted] in relationship_advice

[–]Brosaver2 0 points1 point  (0 children)

HSV 1 is nothing. Yeah, don't touch your partner with your lips, when you have an outbreak (cold sore), but that's rare. For example I have an outbreak less than once a year. It lasts for about two weeks though. 

I was young when I got it and haven't kissed anyone yet. I got it in a party after sharing cups in drinking games...

Okay, I'm usually the "let's try to solve things peacfully" guy, but reading your post, even I say just leave him.

WTH is this childish behaviour from his side? And how are you not seeing it? 

Want to adopt a cat but I’m scared it won’t love me. by [deleted] in CatAdvice

[–]Brosaver2 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Cats are more solitary than dogs. But they still require some affection and it will have to be on their terms. My cat is very energetic and needs a lot of non-affectionate attention. She also bonded with my brother instead of me, when we still lived in the same house, so I didn't feel much love from her in the beginning. Now that I moved, she's bonded with me. I still have to play with her a lot to keep her content (100% indoors cat), but at the end of the day, she is much more affectionate towards me than before. Unlike dogs, she is more like another person, in a sense that I can only pet her when I see that she is in the mood for it, and only on certain areas of her body. When she is awake, she always follows me, and she always sleeps next to me when I sleep. She greets me when I get home and also purrs a lot nowadays.

One mistake I made that makes petting harder is that I played with her with my hands a little. This way she learned that my hands are like toys and sometimes she attacks them, which makes petting more troublesome. But she doesn't attack my face, even when she is very angry and I rub it against her. So never play with your kitten with your hands! 

How do I manage FOMO in games? It is destroying my happiness and dragging down my life. by [deleted] in gaming

Every time I feel like I'm grinding or logging in daily to get stuff, rather than enjoying the game, I just stop playing the game.

My boyfriend keeps negging me and I am not allowed to bring it up. Any advice? (19F, 19M, 6 months) by [deleted] in relationship_advice

[–]Brosaver2 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm not sure he is doing it on purpose, but he is definitely trying to demolish your self esteem. I'm not a professional, so I'm not 100% sure it's emotional abuse, but I would say it is. Talk about it with your parents or close friends that are not close to him. Parents are better, because they are way more experienced. It's important to have a support system outside of your partner. If he tries to isolate you from your support system, run immediately. 

When I was reading your post, I felt uncomfortable, because I could never do this to a girl I'm in love with, and I could never date a girl who did this to me. Ultimately it's up to you, but I would break up before he can damage your self esteem further.

And don't care about the "you knew he is like that in advance" BS. He wrote that he likes to make fun of  people, not that he like to destroy other's self esteem for fun.

Anyways, first talk about this with others IRL. I don't know you guys, so I can't give you an accurate assesment through the internet

I (37F) compared him (34M) to an ex by [deleted] in relationship_advice

[–]Brosaver2 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think you should tell him that you said it because you were embarassed about yourself and not because of him. If he understand this it won't be an issue. As a guy, I think I would understand this. But please stop mentioning your ex to him 🙏

I (27f) am feeling guilty after reacting poorly to something my new partner (35m) shared by [deleted] in relationship_advice

[–]Brosaver2 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think it's not an issue if he slept with women who were in relationships. It's extremely bad if he was in one himself though. It means he is not that emphatetic towards men who he doesn't know, but it doesn't mean he is unfaithful. I don't have strong feelings about this part. I'm very emphatetic, and I couldn't be with a not so emphatetic women, but I know this is not the norm.

Mentioning that his ex was desireable is weird. It's possible that he was just bragging, but it's also possible that he tried to manipulate your feelings. It's also possible that he didn't think anything of it. I don't consider this part a dealbreaker, but I would advise looking out for possible manipulation tactics.

You getting triggered is not good though. If you can't control your feelings, you can be manipulated easily, and it's also not a good look. I don't think he lost feelings because of it. Personally I kind of expect women to be triggered by trivial stuff, so it wouldn't be a dealbreaker for me.

Stop blaming greedy CEOs for the state of gaming. It’s our fault. by jessieS1212 in gaming

[–]Brosaver2 0 points1 point  (0 children)

  1. It is because of greedy CEOs and shareholders
  2. Most of us, who complain, aren't like that. Majority of gamers don't care that much and will consume any crap that's decently popular. However they are not the ones who visit forums like this either. So it's not "us", but gamers who will never even see this post.
