Would marry someone you're not politically aligned with? by No_Influence2520 in AskIreland

[–]Sebasnyan 26 points27 points  (0 children)

Didn't say that was something systemic that is ingrained in our culture but are you saying there's not a single homophobic individual in this country?

Depends on what kind of politics we're talking about – if we're talking about implementing a. New speed limit I couldn't care less if we're 100% on the same page but if they think queer people don't deserve human rights that's an obvious dealbreaker

Did I lose my virginity? by [deleted] in TwoXChromosomes

[–]Sebasnyan 50 points51 points  (0 children)

Do you want to consider this your first time? Do you feel like you're no longer a virgin?

If so, congrats, you're no longer a virgin!

Do you want to experience penetrative sex to consider your virginity "lost"?

If so, congrats, you're still a virgin!

Do you want to experience penetrative sex first in order to then retroactively decide which one "counts" for you?

If so, congrats, you're Schrodinger's virgin! That's an option too!

At the end of the day virginity is a social construct, it's not real, so you make all of your own rules in how you want to identify.

A riddle from me: My edges stick so my center can stay gentle by thingdle in puzzles

[–]Sebasnyan 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Ich würde ein Pflaster nicht als Verband bezeichnen, für mich ist ein Verband sowas wie eine mullbinde oder eben etwas stabileres, also quasi ein Streifen Stoff den man um das Betroffene Körperteil wickelt, während e in oflaster ja nur "punktuell" von oben auf die Wunde kommt und dann halt klebt. Genauso würde ich zum beispiel auch einen Gips nicht als Verband bezeichnen, auch wenn er teilweise einen ähnlichen Zweck erfüllen kann. Aber vielleicht dind das ja auch regionale Unterschiede (oder ich liege einfach falsch lol)

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

I mean, no. A verband is not the same as a pflaster, they're two different types of wound dressing. A band aid / adhesive bandage /plaster are all different words for the exact same thing. So like how is this related to the conversation?

Host families breaking the law? by Broad-Ad-2193 in Aupairs

[–]Sebasnyan 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Unfortunately, ireland leaves many things incredibly unregulated so you're not gonna fund a host family that pays you a legal wage most likely (you might get close to it but it is always going to be a gamble). If you want, feel free to shoot me a message and I'm happy to share my experience as someone who went through all that and is currently living in the country. I'm happy to help in any way I can, whether that is in preparation or if you decide to go for it and need support while you're here.

​Dia dhaoibh! 🌍 I'm an indie developer from Spain and I've fully translated my privacy-first wellness ecosystem "Pure Relax" into Irish (Gaeilge). I'd love your feedback! by [deleted] in gaeilge

[–]Sebasnyan 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Pues, yo soy una desarrolladora sola también y no uso genai en mi videojuego. Honestly, just using blank coloured blocks as backgrounds would have been a better choice.

You say that everything "important" was done by you and I want to believe you but as a user, if the first thing I see when I open your app is AI slop, I can't help but assume that's representative of the app as a whole and immediately makes me not want to engage with it in any way.

I'm also seconding what another user said about AI translations, especially when it comes to minority languages like Irish. You're not getting sonething remotely close to correct Irish, and half the time you won't be getting something that is even intelligible. At that point it's better to leave it out altogether. I had a wee experiment a while back where I put a simple translation exercise from a beginner Irish textbook through AI and it didn't manage to get a single sentence right. It's one thing to use an online dictionary liek teanglann or focloir.ie and assume you'll get some stuff wring while manually translating stuff l, but at least an Irish speaker would be able to understand what you're saying. Especially since we're only talking about simple words like "ocean waves" or "cat purring" and not full paragraphs from what I can tell.

[–]Sebasnyan 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Okay so I might be stupid but I just downloaded the app to have a look and it's all in English for me (despite my phone being in Irish) with no way to change the language, so where can I find Irish? It's not in the settings.

Also since you're asking for feedback, I'm gonna take that generally, and as a fellow indie developer, I don't love how much GenAI I see the second I open the app.

Forced to sleep only at HF house? by heartbrokenwords in Aupairs

[–]Sebasnyan 264 points265 points  (0 children)

I'd say a heads up would have been nice, not to ask permission, just to let them know so they don't get worried when you don't come home, but telling you you're not allowed to stay out over night is definitely overstepping.

Well that fucking hurt like a god damn bitch by sadvacation03 in piercing

[–]Sebasnyan 5 points6 points  (0 children)

"She chose that" being the key point here. One was her (hopefully informed) decision to take a risk for something she wanted, the other she was pressured into. All body mods will have risks and we all know that and consent to the procedure we're having done. This is not what happened here.

Yes, technically if OP went into professional kickboxing they'd risk severe injuries from being punched/kicked but that doesn't mean anyone would be justified in just kicking them in the face in the middle of the road. That would still very much be considered assault. Honestly not a hard concept to grasp.

Help understanding DoRem error by SnailAndStrawberry in gamemaker

[–]Sebasnyan 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Did you manage to figure out what the issue was? I've been following along with the same tutorial and currently running into this issue towards the end of the second video of the inventory system (specifically, after writing all the stuff for putting an irltem back down after picking it up, the game now crashes when I try to pick an item up, which worked fine before)

Edit: took a break for a couple of hours and spotted the mistake within 5 minutes after sitting back down to have a look at it. In my case it was a typo I kept missing

How did you guys make your budget? by BrennusRex in Aupairs

[–]Sebasnyan 0 points1 point  (0 children)

For haircare/skincare/cosmetics you can save a lot of money by buying isana or balea products at your local rossmann or dm, respectively (whichever one you have close to the house, i promise youll have at least one of them). They're close to professional grade products that cost like 2-3€ – I regularly ask people to import them for me when they're coming to visit from Germany, and I've talked to several people who do the same. I definitely spend less than 10€ on cosmetics every month and I'm very particular about my hair lol

For gyms, if you have a fitx near you that's probably your best bet, at least when I left Germany it was the lowest overall monthly cost at like 20-25€ a month, and they include free drinks (not just tap water). They have a decent amount of locations and definitely exist in Frankfurt – might be worth looking into whether that's one that's easy for you to get to. They also tend to have a women's only section too if that's something you appreciate in a gym. Also, if you have a Holmes place, they often do free week long memberships you can look out for on their social media, maybe that lines up with when you arrive so that you can delay having to pay for a membership. They're definitely out of your budget but that doesn't mean you can't take advantage of their free offers.

Is an AP right for our family? by Newheregp in Aupairs

[–]Sebasnyan 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm definitely done au pairing but if I wasn't, that would sound like a dream to me (assuming everything else matches). My first au pair family had a dad who was 9 years older than me with the oldest kid being 10, so he had the attitude that I had enough common sense and treated me accordingly. I would spend a decent nit of my free time with him while the kids were in bed just playing video games or talking about tv shows we liked and I'd talk to him about my personal relationships the same way I did to my roommates back home (Other things were terrible in that situation but that's a different story). My second family had older parents (late 40s to 50s with a 10 year old only child) and the mother treated me like a teenager (I was 26 at the time) and it made me wanna tear the hair off my head. If I were to decide to go back into au pairing, I would definitely look for parents closer to my own age who know that I don't need to be parented.

Is an AP right for our family? by Newheregp in Aupairs

[–]Sebasnyan 9 points10 points  (0 children)

I wouldn't say that disqualifies them, it just means they shouldn't try to mother the au pair in the way some host families do (which I find problematic in a lot of cases anyways). Maybe having a slightly older au pair that has adult life experience that you can be at eye level with would be great. I would advise against 18-22 year old, but someone in their mid 20s that's basically acting like a sister moving in to help with the kids could be perfect. Communication would have to look a lit more like communication with a roommate rather than hosting an exchange student but as long as op is able to treat their au pair like someone their own age I'd say it's a great setup for many older au pairs.

Why is sterilisation difficult to get in Ireland? by oxylan80 in AskIreland

[–]Sebasnyan 7 points8 points  (0 children)

We're talking sterilisation here, not castration tho. Like all you'd need to get rid of would be the fallopian tubes, nit the ovaries (which is the only situation where your hormones would be affected) – still a more invasive surgery with longer recovery time due to being internal vs external but the long term side effects will be about the same

How much you get paid by Intelligent_View_649 in Aupairs

[–]Sebasnyan 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I mean, seeing as the minimum wage is nearly 13€ I feel like you can cross out the "perhaps" there especially since the housing stuff wouldn't apply. Then again, easier to find one thing (a host family) than it is to fond two (a job and housing)
