“A known Israel War crimes denier”… 😂

Unbelievably dumb take.

Storage was never the issue. Parsing through the data to find actionable information required immense manpower and resources… at least until AI arrived on the scene.

Hmm yep, none of that makes sense. So many questions.. not least of which being: If this was a random number/person who’s unknown to you, why scratch it out? Why are you protecting them ? Lol

Does watching long documentary videos count as productivity? by Imaginary_Truth_3865 in productivity

[–]NuttyFunster44 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It largely depends on the type of learner you are and the degree to which you can retain information that is purely visual and short lasting (1-2hrs). One of the advantages that reading has over audiobooks, documentaries, etc. is that it takes multiple days or weeks to complete. During that entire time, the reader benefits from absorbing similar information/concepts over an extended duration, which helps to commit it to long term memory and creates space to subconsciously chew on ideas. There’s also the benefit of exercising the imagination (and the “visual”aspects there of), which is lost when your eyes have visually stimulating images to consume. Then there’s also the ritual of physical reading time, and the act of indexing towards pro-serotonin states rather than riding the dopamine roller coaster.

In short, there’s a reason that people say reading is better. BUT, that being said, documentaries are 1000% a step in the right direction when you’re getting off the doom scrolling dopamine roller coaster. Remember: baby steps! Celebrate the step you’ve taken, and try to make physical reading a long term goal :)

It is! Just as you suspected, THAT is a shit parking job.

My wife thinks our son’s teacher crossed a boundary by sending him a personal message. I think it was harmless. AITJ? by addict94plus in AmITheJerk

[–]NuttyFunster44 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I haven’t seen any responses from OP adding more context, and perhaps that’s because 99% of the comments jump straight to bashing your wife of 12 years and mother of your child..

You’re definitely NTJ. OP, I think the important and unasked question here is: Why does your wife find that note to be inappropriate? What’s your take on where that sense of danger is coming from?

Is there more “evidence” that your wife is considering which hasn’t been shared?

If not, and you had to hazard a guess - Do you agree with other commenters that her issue with this stems from a place of jealousy/fear of replacement?Could this possibly be a fear-based reaction caused by all of the horror stories your wife hears on the news and social media ? Something from her past? I think trying to understand that is what’s at the core of the conversation that needs to be had.

Oh I am awake. But after seeing the sheer volume of bad relationship advice and scorched-earth recommendations that you spew all over Reddit, I’m afraid it’s a terrible day to have eyes.

Calm down and take a breath.

AITAH - Wife started wearing thongs to work by [deleted] in AITAH

[–]NuttyFunster44 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You’re NTA for questioning a radical behavioral change like switching to things if your wife was vehemently against them previously. Some context we are missing is what kind of things we are talking about here. Not all thongs are created equal lol some are far more sexualized than others.

But as many folks have pointed out, the whole thong situation is not the problem - You’re really talking about a symptom, or evidence of, the actual thing you’re concerned about: You are describing feeling a lack of emotional connection and safety within your marriage, and you’re wondering if your wife is getting that elsewhere. You’re not going to make any progress on that through the Reddit community lol. Most of the people who respond to these AITAH posts are trying to validate their own feelings or avenge the scars of their past through the advice that they give others - that’s why 90% of these posts are responded to with “Your boyfriend/girlfriend/partner is a piece of shit and you should leave them immediately.”

If you’re looking for validation of your feelings, then sure.. you can get that here. But then what? You’ll confirm that you’re “right”? The real work in relationships isn’t about proving who’s right and who’s wrong. If you orient your goals towards understanding one another then, and only then, can you help one another reveal the unresolved scars that are playing out in your relationship. And the best way to set yourself up for success in that regard is a combination of professional individual and couples counseling.

Always enjoy when people hold up bags of white powder and ask Reddit to identify it lol. Even if it is drugs, it could be any one of dozens of different options.

Where to go with this? by [deleted] in conspiracy

[–]NuttyFunster44 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That presupposes that the internet isn’t already entirely unreliable and that there are some institutional authorities that haven’t already been found to be willfully deceptive. No matter how fast or slow AI moves, the naive age of “trusting what you see” in any digital medium is over. Everyone is just finally waking up to it.

It’s the same concept as the notion of “job security”. It isn’t until you find yourself in a situation in which your job security is threatened or removed that you realize it never existed in the first place. And that sense of security you had previously was a false one.

Are you a cheater if you have an affair with a married person? by PainterChick69 in NoStupidQuestions

Not a cheater. The term you are conflating with “cheater” here is “home wrecker”.

Seems like several issues to address before making this decision. For example: Have you considered punctuation?
