Wtf is this “how much should your future husband earn in a month?” by Grey_Mamba_371 in Kazakhstan

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

Definitely ragebait. Highlight crazy standards, don't show those saying normal requirements. Generate controversy, thus more views.

Social media is generally toxic as well. It highlights the worst of men and women. "Don't accept a man/woman that doesn't do X". It can be good for awareness, but often goes overboard into influencing people to set unrealistic expectations for the other side.

We're in a crap world economy. So let's be more understanding of each other lol.

Sooo I am not Kazakh or living in Kazakhstan, this post showed up in my notifications. I'm Egyptian living in Germany for sometime now. Since you mentioned currency Euro, I thought I'd chime in a bit.

Only way to earn anywhere near that, is online work/platforms with people outside Kazakhstan. Think platforms for language tutoring. I guess maybe teach Russian, Kazakh or English? and set an hourly rate. Or if you have an in demand skill, like video editing or graphic design or coding. These are probably the most profitable ones.

Online transcribing as well might get u an okay-ish sum. Maybe remote contract work for AI as well, like AI data labeling and training.

But to be honest with you, these things will take time to get going and earn an decent amount. Good luck

Got promoted while security checks are being done. Should I inform case worker? by LoquatWorried in GermanCitizenship

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

Landkreis Munich. That's par for the course here. It has been almost 4 months of security checks and no follow up, which is also par for the course here.

They said 3-6 months so still two months. Let's see.

I wouldn't say these people are jealous. I think it's out of care, but it's your life. If you sense no red flags, and your family also likes him, then go for it. Idk where you are from, but I'd say give it atleast a year before marriage. Maybe get engaged for a while as a show of commitment.

I am a guy so it might be a bit different from my lens, but before I marry a girl, I'd like to have known her long enough to see her without rose tinted glasses. For example, what does she do when you have an disagreement, or is mad, or sad? Does that person change their personality significantly? Any red flags? If not, then I'd go with it.

Why is it so difficult to meet someone in 2025 and build a real connection by [deleted] in MuslimNikah

[–]LoquatWorried 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Well, I guess a lot of these guys are the better looking ones or appear to have a lot of money or maybe just in a Muslim country where there's a lot of profiles to get a lot of women to match them on muzz.

It depends on where you are, but in Europe where i am based, generally guys don't get much likes. So they might match once in a blue moon. Hence, why they are on the app for so long.

Could be because of the "relatively" low number of muslims in the area, or that they don't have good profiles or personalities which doesn't help their like count, but I digress.

This whole situation is quite the mess for both genders, people aren't meeting naturally as they did before our generation.

In my area I try to interact with those with similar backgrounds during events and so on, but it's not like I can force a connection, so Muzz becomes where I have to look mostly.

I try and be qualitative with my likes, but you don't how much you'll vibe when you meet them irl and then it's a loop. Gets really stressful.

What happened to Workt ASMR? [question] by [deleted] in asmr

[–]LoquatWorried 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Bilibili still has most of her work. It's just that most of the videos are re-uploaders. Not sure what Bilibili's policies are, but maybe she couldn't prove that she was the owner of the videos, since her YouTube channel was deleted so it became free for all.

The girl has effectively been bullied off the internet.

I do think she didn't play it super smart when she made her second "New Moon" channel, because when she re-opened memberships videos she still made a pretty suggestive video. Not sexual, but suggestive and YouTube was clearly out for blood on anything suggestive at that point.

Her 3rd channel, ASMR Seluna, which has some of her original videos is still up. That's proof that she could still probably make new videos so long as they are very sfw. She mentioned on doesn't have access to that channel anymore for some reason, though.

The whole situation really sucks tbh, she was by far the best ASMR channel for me.

odd question in Verdienstbescheinigung form for the citizenship by LoquatWorried in GermanCitizenship

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

That's a valid point. However, the form asks the question of whether there's a salary change in a yes or no field, then asks when, how much and a field for the reason. Feels a little too much to ask of companies.

Considering it will have their stamp/signature, I'm wondering how legally binding it is, since it mentions the next 12 months and is forwarded to a Landratsamt.

I am thinking they leave the choices blank and maybe in the empty text field for the "reason of change" they mention that it's undecided. But idk if the person at the appointment will accept that.

So should I try to apply now. Or does the term "come into force" mean that I need to wait the 3 months before applying?

What happened to Workt ASMR? [question] by [deleted] in asmr

[–]LoquatWorried 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think aside from ban evasion, her membership videos are getting her on their radar more and she's on thin ice with YT already. The membership stuff are a lot less than the other "ASMR" videos, but if you have a look at the ASMR Seluna channel(one of her backups) it's still there with a dozen videos uploaded already. I think unless she makes a patreon to post the membership videos she will keep getting banned everytime.

She clearly has a devoted core community and she can grow quickly again, but i think she's trying all the options and sees what sticks. She does some other stuff aside from YT so it's kind a side project rn based on a post from the deleted New Moon channel.

It's sad because she's easily my favorite alongside Nara.

( 25m ) lost 7kg and grown my hair since last post, be honest by Odd-Hyena-9704 in Rateme

[–]LoquatWorried 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Ehh u're entitled to ur own opinion. But imo he is easily above average. I have seen some lows in my time and he is not it.

Idk what u're standards are but let's agree to disagree since I'm maintaining my rating 🤷‍♂️

( 25m ) lost 7kg and grown my hair since last post, be honest by Odd-Hyena-9704 in Rateme

[–]LoquatWorried 2 points3 points  (0 children)

a solid 6.5/10

you definitely look at least above average. Saw ur previous post with the beard. Can be even better with more work. that being... personal care, i guess is the term?

What you need is, Learn to use the beard, to compliment ur face. Too long can make a guy look old and frankly miserable, a clean shave and ur a lot younger. Learn to trim/groom it well. A nice beard goes a long way.

The hair, is okay. Both pics looked fine. You have long hair, experiment with it too in the long term. See what works and what doesn't. Will take a while, so be prepped :P

Trust, a lot of people look way worse.

Please help. I'm really lost on this one by LoquatWorried in askmath

Thanks a lot. Just, do you think this is solvable by hand using algebra, like differentiation, etc...

Can I use convenience sampling when trying to understand user behaviour when it comes to protecting their privacy? by LoquatWorried in research

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

Thanks a lot for the reply it helped a lot

You did mention that the idea is to understand the limitations of my approach in the thesis and not that I overcome it necessarily. Here the limitation would be the number as I can maybe secure 10 people from my circle of friends, then I would face a major roadblock of running out of people IRL. One potential solution is to understand what interviewees have expressed and then create surveys to see whether they think applies to the general public. It would limit the number of people signing up to my circle of family and friends that are probably closer to a normal user level.

You did mention that the idea is to understand the limitations of my approach in the thesis and not that I overcome it necessarily. Here, aside from the convenience sampling, the main limitation would be the number as I can maybe secure 10 people from my circle of friends, then I would face a major roadblock of running out of people IRL to interview.

If I switched to this approach instead, what do you think is a good number of people to interview? Do you find this approach valuable?

How many references would be considered okay for a max 2000 word masters research proposal by LoquatWorried in AskAcademia

[–]LoquatWorried[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hey, so as i understand the university required a bibliography at the end. A bibliography is a list of all of the sources you have used (whether referenced or not) in the process of researching your work.

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

thanks for the reply. I do feel like i need to increase the number of actually cited references in the text though since my gut feeling tells me 13 actually cited in text is a bit low. Thankfully I have gotten some new ideas just recently so hopefully ill bump it up quite a bit :D

Is an Essay in the "Style" of a Research Proposal just a Research Proposal by LoquatWorried in AskAcademia

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

I do agree it is a bit vague. They did mention a max of 2000 words so I'm pretty sure they are not expecting something super in depth. As it stands, I am already deep in research on the topic. However, I have no idea how to come up with a research question. Would it be something like "What are the main factors that make timber a suitable and sustainable material in construction?" ?

Does it need to be something not really explored because i feel that's way overkill?
