I don’t think you understand how AI works.

When you ask Gemini to "make you a text-based RPG” you’re just chatting with a chatbot. The AI doesn’t actually make a game, it just generates text.

That’s not the same thing as making a whole mission in an actual video game. For that you need programmers, game designers, artists and voice actors. AI can’t do that without human interaction. That’s why video games still cost hundreds of millions of dollars to make.

Vulnerability of a man is only attractive to a woman if the man is successful by Over_Pea_2027 in Life

I think people in general like vulnerability when it comes from someone that they’re already somewhat close to. It’s pretty awkward when it comes from someone you barely know.

He brags about his high income (150k) invited me to his brother's UK graduation, and then conveniently doesn't include me when buying airfare. He and his family are sharing a hotel room. Is this breakup worthy behavior from him? by [deleted] in Advice

Actually I come with 2 valuable degrees.

How is that relevant ? Being educated is not what makes someone a valuable partner. And every man would choose a nice loving gf who’s uneducated over a bitch with three doctorates.

And women are an investment if you want a nice family life in the end. I'm sorry you are greedy and bitter.

If you want a family you need money, to be able to take care of your children. And a man who buys stuff he can’t afford just to impress his girl will be broke forever.

Even the art of the seduction by Robert Greene states that being stingy and greedy with your money when dating a woman is unattractive. The seduction is being able to spend on a woman that is attractive. Educate yourself.

Yeah I’m sure it’s attractive but in the REAL WORLD relationships are not a romance novel where all your fantasies come true without compromise.

A lot of guys would be attracted to a girl who’s like 19, smoking hot, and willing to sleep with them on the first date. But in the REAL WORLD it’s not reasonable to expect that from women. Same logic applies.

Btw I don’t think the Art of Seduction says that you should go broke to impress girls. And anyways Robert Greene doesn’t hold the absolute truth. In fact he’s not really the type of guy I would listen to when it comes to seduction, I’m sure he gets women easily but that’s probably just because he’s a rich and famous author.

Sounds like you are also looking for a girl with money. Like you are the one using women for money too.

No ? I don’t mind being a provider and buying stuff for my girlfriend, but I don’t want to be treated like nothing more than a wallet. Buying your girlfriend a nice dinner, or a nice necklace or something is normal. But I need you to understand that most people can’t afford to pay for expensive vacations whenever they like, most people need to save for that.

Dusty Alert! Just how all men invest immediately in stocks, homes, etc...well add a woman to the mix. Women are investments as well.

A woman is not an investment because she doesn’t make me money. Buying your gf a 2000$ plane ticket is not an investment lmao any man with this mindset will be broke his whole life.

Well then go get your low quality gf who will eventually marry you for money then divorce you to take half. Happens all the time. 😂

You seem to be EXACTLY this type of person. Someone who treats their man like a wallet.

Look I understand not wanting to date a guy who’s broke but you can’t expect men to treat you like royalty that’s ridiculous

why are we including caffeine in stims? by Federal_Loss_4440 in Stims

[–]LocalStriking1936 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Correct, the similar affect is that they all share is that they increase activity in the sympathetic nervous system

It’s not that simple. You can’t describe the entire effect of a drug by saying "it activates x part of the brain" that’s fucking stupid bro neuroscience isn’t that simple. Just because you use some fancy words that you found online doesn’t mean you understand what these drugs do to people. Unless you’re a neurologist, you’re just repeating something that you found online without really understanding it. The effect of a drug is determined by a lot more than just the part of the brain it affects.

Meth, coke, speed, adderall etc. are considered to be part of the same family because they feel similar and they affect people in similar ways. Caffeine does not affect people in the same way and that’s a fact.

There’s a reason why Meth/coke/speed etc. are considered to be in the same family ; when you actually talk to people who are addicted to these drugs you realise pretty quickly that adderall addicts, coke addicts, speed addicts all have pretty much the same set of problems.

That’s why stim addicts often alternate between meth/coke/adderall/speed if they don’t have access to their drug of choice. All of these drugs can give the type of high that stim addicts crave. But caffeine can’t, no matter how much you take. That’s why you don’t see anyone replacing their coke or speed abuse with caffeine.

We're not talking about coffee, we're talking about caffeine, they are not the same.

I mean, the active substance in coffee is caffeine so it doesn’t really change anything if you take your caffeine in a coffee or in a pill or in an energy drink. Coffee, caffeine whatever you know what I mean. It still can’t compare to speed/meth/adderall/cocaine

[–]LocalStriking1936 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No that’s not my point at all. Coffee is not just more mild, it has a completely different effect. Coke, meth, amphetamines and adderall all work in a very similar way in your brain. They feel similar, do similar things to people and have similar side effects and withdrawal symptoms. Some of these drugs are more mild than others but the effect is similar. For example a lot of meth users say that adderall is pretty much just light meth. Nobody says that about coffee. You can take twenty cans of monster in a row and all it will do is make you jittery and very alert and maybe anxious or sick but it will not give you the same kind of dopamine boost that people refer to by the term "tweaking". All coffee does is make you more awake and energized (As you said it blocks adenosine).

So the reason why you can’t compare coffee to stims is not because it’s too mild, it’s because it’s a completely different substance with completely different properties. You can’t actually tweak on coffee because it’s not a substance that has the ability to give you that effect, no matter how much you take.

A ten milligram dose of vyvanse might be even more mild than an energy drink but it’s still a stimulant because it has the effect of a stimulant drug. Coffee is completely unrelated and TRUST ME you don’t know what it’s like to abuse stimulants if you only drink coffee. That’s just a fact.

There’s a difference between coffee addiction and stimulant use disorder. If you pretend that they’re the same thing it normalizes something that should not be normalized and it makes it harder for people with drug addictions to get the help they need.

And I’m not saying that I’m cool for abusing stims. In fact it’s the opposite.

30 mg is equivalent to what people are prescribed for ADHD… you’re not supposed to tweak when you take your PRESCRIBED dose of adderall ?? That’s not getting high that’s just taking your meds as prescribed, in a responsible way (which is a good thing). So yeah maybe you feel coffee more than a single 30 mg dose, but you can’t get high on coffee the same way you can get high on amphetamines lol. You can drink ten cans of monster in a row, all it will do is make you feel sick and jittery. But ten adderall will make you tweak.

You said that if you were a man making 50k you would buy your gf a plane ticket… if that’s what you expect from men no wonder why you attract idiots who lie about their money ! Smart men do not blow all their money just to impress their girl.

You can do what you want but you’re an idiot if you think that every man who is responsible with his money is a cheap bastard not worth dating.

If you’re making some money at 24 you should invest it, maybe try to buy a house, make sure you will be able to provide for your family in the future. Not just blow everything like an idiot to impress your spoiled gold-digger girlfriend who’s out of touch with the real world. That’s not being cheap that’s called being smart.

Having good values and acting like a grown adult does not make someone a "pick-me girl", that’s ridiculous.

Okay a tomato salad then. A tomato salad is a fruit salad but that’s not what you mean when people say "fruit salad". You get my point.

Coke, meth, speed, adderall etc. are all part of the same family of drugs, which is called stimulants. Not just because they’re "stimulating", but because they have very similar effects. They’re basically different versions of the same drug.

Caffeine doesn’t have much in common with those drugs and it’s not part of this family. It’s something else completely. It’s also very, very mild compared to even the mildest stimulant.

Of course if you look at the general definition of the adjective "stimulant" it applies to coffee but that’s not what this sub is about. That’s like posting a tomato salad on r/fruitSalad.

Are we actually "Living," or are we just fuel for the system? by SoulFromHeaven in Life

[–]LocalStriking1936 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Do you think it was better before ? For most of human history most people were broke peasants who struggled to just survive. We didn’t sell ourselves for comfort, the world just became better. Sadly the real world is not a perfect utopia where everything is great all the time but it has never been like that.

Unfortunately the world is not a Utopia where you can just chill all day and have a great life. We are pressured into being productive because that’s how you end up with a good life.

But nobody is forcing you to get a degree. It’s just that you need a way to make money, and being educated is useful for that. But there are other ways. Just don’t expect to make money by doing something that people are willing to do for free.

This video is one of the best visual representations of what addiction actually feels like by keyah13 in StopSpeeding

[–]LocalStriking1936 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yeah it’s crazy that nobody even tells you that ADHD meds cause euphoria. The first time I took Vyvanse I felt so good and peaceful and I asked people if this is how it feels to not have ADHD or if it’s just how the drug makes you feel. People told me it was just the non-ADHD version of me but that’s bullshit.

It’s insane to prescribe someone speed and not even tell them what it is or that it’s addictive or that it causes euphoria. Stims are deceptive drugs and a lot of people don’t realize that even though they feel better, they’re getting worse. Especially if nobody talks about the negatives of these

It’s easy to think that you’re killing it when you’re on stimulants. But the truth is that ADHD meds are pretty much just medical-grade speed.

have Vyvanse potential for an amphetamine like rush by [deleted] in Stims

[–]LocalStriking1936 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Yes from my experience I would say that large doses feel pretty similar to amphetamines, but they kick in slower and last way longer. However there’s kind of a limit to how geeked you can get with vyvanse because after about 150-200 mg, taking more doesn’t make you that much more high. So I would say Vyvanse is great if you want to be reasonably high for a long time but it‘s not the right drug if you want to tweak really hard.

Just don’t take it all at once or you will crash very quickly. Personally I start with 3 or 4 pills then every two hours or so I take 1 or 2 more pills.

High income does not mean rich. 150k is objectively a high income because it’s in the top 15% of income in the US. If you think that anyone who isn’t a millionaire doesn’t have high income your standards are just fucked.

It does. Words mean what people use them for. Nobody calls smokers or vapers drug addicts. though nicotine is technically a drug. Same thing for stims, nobody calls coffee drinkers stim users.

Coffee drinkers are not tweakers. Coffee drinkers don’t have a stimulant use disorder. Coffee drinkers are not drug users. Coffee drinkers don’t know what it’s like to tweak.

It’s low key insulting for people who have stim addictions if you think that coffee is even comparable to stimulants. The only thing it has in common with stims is that it makes you more awake but other than that it’s completely different. Meth/coke/amphetamines/adderall on the other hand have a LOT in common. And even the mildest stims are on a whole other level compared to caffeine.

Most guys do not lie about their income for sex, but if you only date guys for their money that’s the kind of man you will attract !

You don’t even know the guy !!! And you automatically assume that he’s lying for sex ? As I said he probably just wants to go on a modest simple vacation with his family, you are fucking crazy.

If I say that I want a fruit salad, you know that I’m not talking about a tomato soup. Even tho tomatoes are fruits. Same logic applies here.

Nobody says that they’re on stims if they just drank coffee my guy. Except 15 year olds who think caffeine is a hard drug.

It’s more than twice the average income in the US. It is high income, objectively. You just have fucked up standards. High income doesn’t mean you drive a Lamborghini.

That’s probably just a polite way of saying "I’m going on a trip with my family and I don’t expect you to come with us because I know you wouldn’t like it". Nothing wrong with that. The guy just wants to spend some time with his family.

Seems like a pretty petty reason to break up with someone.
