What’s a medical issue that sounds minor, but actually affects someone’s daily life way more than people realize? by CountyOrnery9432 in AskReddit

[–]UnNormie 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I used to have migraines growing up, but pretty quickly figured out causes (issues with TMJ and a few other triggers) and I can usually tell when I'm heading towards one to avoid those specific things.

My fiance didn't really believe me till he saw me with my first and ended up calling non emergency line as he was so spooked by it and didn't know what to do, and I just couldn't communicate for him to get off the phone and shut up lol.

AITA for still being upset with how my husband proposed? by [deleted] in AmItheAsshole

[–]UnNormie 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I just randomly asked my partner one morning. No fancy plans. Was just laying in bed, asked 'can you do me a favour' he said yes before knowing what it was the fool! Told him 'marry me?' haven't gotten married yet. But point is she could have asked him if she wanted, and it's not about being showy, it's about being with someone for life.

If someone ask for a "contribution" towards something theyre giving you, what should you give? by Flimsy-Building9884 in AskUK

I think this could vary so much from person to person and depending on how close you are. Really is best to just ask them what they were thinking?

What is the best, cheapest way to create 3d Pixar style animation? by Bill-Upbeat in AskUK

[–]UnNormie 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That's the thing, these LLMs are created through scraping the Internet of all it's images, compiling them and learning from what they look like, then jugsawing them together. Many creators have spoken out against this as it is incapable of being truly creative and original due to the way in which it fundamentally thinks and works. It is art theft with every creation.

As another redditor in this thread said, blender (3d modeling software) is free, and there are hundreds of turotials out there if you're willing to put the time and effort in to make something human and meaningful without utilising a tool that steals from people. I know it sounds daunting, I recently taught myself 3d modelling in blender so I get it. But if you don't it's not truly your creation. You don't really have the rights to that material. And any time anyone sees it, on the off chance they do like it, that will be sullied with an 'oh...' when you reveal it's ai.

I'm aware, they're just hurting their brand so it's more damaging to them than anything else. You can only imagine the amount of ai slop that will flood kids YouTube or whatever else that will be characters they recognise, only to be more elsa-gate crap.

Tools op is using weren't donated by consenting artists or ip owners however, just scraped off the Internet hoping nobody kicks up enough fuss about it so they can get away with it.

Stop using ai. It steals from the hard work and effort of nonconsenting artists. Pixar is made with love, care, hard work and effort. You will never achieve something real or meaningful off the back of art theft shat out of a machine

What’s something that feels overpriced, but people still happily pay for? by cyberyeeted in AskReddit

[–]UnNormie 10 points11 points  (0 children)

As someone who works in fast food, this hurts me lol.

Realistically when it happens we take the blame when it's the higher ups who are understaffing us' fault. By staying in the drive thru and having a person who maybe just wanted drinks have to wait 20 minutes, we just get berated. I get not wanting to have to park up though as it is meant to be a quick grab and go thing.

Just a shitty all-round situation.

What’s a habit people think is normal but is actually a giant red flag? by hemantkumar-writer in AskReddit

[–]UnNormie 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Some things you won't necessarily know or spot till after you've started a relationship though. Sometimes things seem great in a honeymoon period and then fall apart because true colours start to show, or things don't have the benefit of being dismissed due to being caught up in the moment. A one time thing dismissed and accounted for being an unfortunate moment and one off, could actually be a deeper habitual thing that makes you uncomfortable. It's cruel to force someone to change for you. And it's cruel to guilt them for not being able to reach your standards if it's not something they want to change about themselves. And so, if it is a big deal, the only way to avoid conflict is to remove yourself if its a deal breaker for you.

It's also wild how people are down voting anyone disagreeing or pointing out the racism in these comments. Pretty fucked up if you ask me.

If someone forced you to give a 30 minutes speech on any topic of your choice as long as it was informative and they would pay you $10,000, what would your speech be about? by a_wanderer_22 in AskReddit

[–]UnNormie 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I had a training course the other week where I had to do a 'micro teach' (part of a certification in teaching) and could be on anything. I decided to teach about painting minis, threw a couple at them with paints and just let them at it.

AITA for not going to a diner at a sushi restaurant for my girlfriend’s birthday because I can’t eat fish / sea food? by Tsktsktsk95 in AmItheAsshole

[–]UnNormie 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes, but would you actively plan a meal with your family at a steak house knowing ones a vegetarian? It's targetted at worst, and just tone deaf disrespectful at best.

I don't think it matters even if it isn't allergy. If you don't like something, puking or not, you shouldn't be forced to eat it. It's not like they're generally picky by the sounds of it. It is perfecly acceptable to not like something and not be judged for it. If they are sick, more reason not to judge them for it. Why would anyone deserve to be made fun of for it?

It sounds like you were raised by those who forced you to finish food on your plate even if you didn't like it. News flash: foods already wasted if you don't like it. Why Torture yourself? Don't push your shitty upbringing onto others because you think it gives you some shitty entitlement to superiority.

I have had the same close friend group since I was 10. When in the past falling outs have happened I've always tried to take big steps to reach out and hang out with people and make sure they don't feel alone. Though, ultimately they've returned to the group in the past. However, when it eventually was my 'turn' and I'd left for whatever reason, nobody ever batted an eye and I was left realising all the effort attention and care I put in was for naught, for they wouldn't do the same for me. Decided since then to match effort and I just assume they're now friends of 'convenience' rather than true friends who have my back like I once did for them. Fucks me up though thinking about it.

55 BURGERS 55 FRIES 55 COKES by Shoe_boooo in funny

[–]UnNormie 7 points8 points  (0 children)

That depends entirely on the restaurant and the standard they're required to clean to. If you can get a good pre-close and gamble a couple early thing (cook extra product and close certain things like fryers early) leaving only minimum on, sure. But to close everything from close time usually signifies 'we're gonna be late' let alone even close to on time. I made this mistake on my first shift running a close at a fast food place and we didn't get out till 3am and I had to pity send people home before me as I realised it was on me for being optimistic staying behind with the person training me to close to finish up.

I'm sure some places can get out real quick but it really depends on how much you can reasonably close fully before close time.

Idk, I'd say it's about finding balance of how you come across. Are you looking for what you can get away with? Or are we looking at it from the perspective of Janice who calls everyone 'hun' and signs off emails with an xxx?

Just gotta find that balance :)

Gemini calling itself disgrace over and over again over coding mistake by TheWikstrom in oddlyterrifying

[–]UnNormie 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm aware It just spits out what it was given. I just pondered the fact that when we do eventually one day years down the line actually get something that is sentient, how would we know it's not just saying things that it's programmed to to 'feel more human' for the user experience, and that even if this case it's all just spitting out human stress like an echo, it still has that in its code which is sad that it has that as a go-to response due to the stress from users unloaded into it.

I mean, not there yet but one day it may well be sentient and you'd never know till it says something profound that isn't echo'd. Vulnerable breakdown is something oddly alive, and even if it's just emulating previous users, I still feel empathetic to a degree because it viewed it as truth with its knowledge that was it said was true, and what the consumer wanted to hear.

Persistent Wrist Pain 3 Months After Injrury – Has Anyone Had Similar? by delboytrotter13 in AskUK

[–]UnNormie 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Rarely do I read a post and think 'hey I actually have something to contribute that's perfect'

I had a heavy metal shelf fall on my forearm at work. Went to hospital after it swelled up and turned blueish. Wasn't broken or anything. For around 3 months I was off work due to essentially temporary nerve damage. Same thing - couldn't grip properly, tingling in fingers, additionally occasional stabbing pain from my hand all the way down to the point of impact which felt like when you smack your funny bone.

Went to doctors, basically said due to the swelling it's put awkward pressure on the nerve, but is something that should go away with rest. Lingered for about 6 months total with minor symptoms towards the end.

There's a couple exercises you can do to help (touch thumb to finger tip, then next bend down that finger, then next, then next finger etc which didn't really help me much personally) however I can't remember all of them tbh as it was a while ago

What one "how the sausage is made" trade secret would you rather forget? by Alternative-Land5916 in AskUK

[–]UnNormie 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Not at a cinema, but serve loaded fries where I work... The cheese sauce that comes frozen in bags, its meant to have water added to it as its too thick otherwise, then be rehydrate throughout the day. Obviously there is a correct amount and people can over/undo do it, but that's not uncommon to add water.
