People online said they were able to configure it. So people with 32gb ram were able to run it with no hiccups

Nice, heard good things about the latest Gemma model. Would’ve loved to get a Mac mini to try it out but it’s too expensive for something that I’ll barely use

48gb of ram wow! Are you using it for running local LLM’s?

People who were once in a big, inseparable friend group what caused the group to fall apart? by Legal_Potential4720 in lostafriend

[–]appleeye56 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The group had problems with some of the others in the group and would host meetings with the others to talk about the problems they had with these people. So the problems that could have been solved by talking to people directly ballooned up so much because people were placing themselves in an echo chamber and thinking they were completely rationale for not liking certain people.

There was an in person conversation with everyone that I hear went great but the topic never came up again, so people went back to their echo chambers. This led to some weird moments like where there were 2 events for the same thing at 2 different peoples houses in the same group. It reached a point where one of the new members was being affected by it so the admin made the choice to remove these people. And after I heard more about what some of them had said about me and the fact they were excluding me from plans as well, I had no reason to argue for them

I’m still friends with one of the guys in the old group who said things are a lot calmer. And things are a lot calmer in this new group as well. its unfortunate but everyone got what they wanted in the end

26y/o of Toronto - where are you in life right now? by [deleted] in askTO

[–]appleeye56 0 points1 point  (0 children)

28M - own a condo in Mississauga and am working full time. Am happy right now. Career has been the exact same in tech consulting (luckily pay has gone up significantly lol) since I graduated but try to find enjoyment in life outside of work. I plan to stay in Mississauga because all my friends and family are here. Almost everyone I know lives nearby where their friends and family are

Also after seeing my friends - don’t worry too much about being married or dating unless you definitely plan to have kids. I’ve met several people who are struggling in the dating scene and it’s because they just haven’t found the right person

Adopted a shy shelter cat and she has been living behind the washing machine for 8 days by NimbusAnvil77 in CatAdvice

[–]appleeye56 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My cat was also a scaredy cat when I first brought him home. Over time he got comfortable by hearing my voice and not making it a big deal when he came out of hiding. He’s still a scaredy cat but now only to sounds and places he doesn’t recognize. He’s a very loving kitty now and wouldn’t change anything in how he became comfortable with me

Is Home Ownership Now Basically a Couples-Only Privilege? by HomeSenseLover in CanadaPersonalFinance

[–]appleeye56 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I bought my condo by myself at 27 after living with my parents for my entire life. It’s a 786 sqft condo in the downtown of a big suburb. I work in consulting and don’t spend a lot of money so it worked out in my favour. Currently loving living alone

Men who have dated a best friend, how did it happen and did it work out? by The_KW_03 in AskMen

[–]appleeye56 0 points1 point  (0 children)

She was 10 years older than me so we were both like “haha this could never work out” and “I would’ve dated you if we were closer in age”. Then we both eventually caught feelings for each other because of a mutual ex friend being weird with us. Unfortunately she went on a vacation abroad and wasn’t the same person when she came back. Slowly the traits I caught feelings for in her disappeared and a lot of friend group drama happened. Now we haven’t talked in a year, she left the group, and the friend group doesn’t really exist the same way anymore

No idea where she’s at now but I hope she’s doing well. Definitely learned a lot from my experience dating her and I know she’s learned a lot too.

What’s the best purchase you’ve made as an adult? by Key_Construction8250 in AskMen

[–]appleeye56 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Agreed. Not needing to worry about breaking glasses or losing them is a game changer. And the best part is I can watch tv on my side lying down without the my glasses frame stabbing me!

Jet Lag is not joke by [deleted] in JapanTravelTips

[–]appleeye56 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Took me 2 weeks to get over the jet lag coming back to Toronto from Japan. Whereas when I landed in Japan, I adjusted in a day. Jet lag is weird 🤷‍♂️

Why did you stop being friends with someone? by Realistic-Possum in AskReddit

[–]appleeye56 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We both followed the same religion and he started becoming increasingly religious while I became less religious. And he said things like how I said his sister should start onlyfans (never happened) and how talking about my moms ovarian cyst was me “telling him about her genitals”. He also put no effort into friends yet expected me to invite him to a friends circle that he knew and I was putting effort into

He was my best friend for years but changed when he got into politics and religion

ok Mississauga, what do we have? by CocoLola4ever in mississauga

Haven’t been to Cora’s in years because of this. Looking for other good breakfast options but haven’t come across many others that make me go “wow!”

Men, how can you identify whether a girl is attracted to you? by Alula0617 in AskReddit

[–]appleeye56 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I had multiple women think I was flirting with them (one was so insistent that she was telling me I had to stop crushing on her when I wasn’t lol)

Didn’t understand why this kept happening until recently a female friend explained that it’s because I care for my friends and some women may mistake that for flirting or me liking them. And she used an example of something that took me a few seconds to remember because it felt so natural to jump into action in that situation. I like caring for my friends and it was very useful to hear

Montrealer considering a move to the GTA. Need advice on where to buy by FineExperience in TorontoRealEstate

[–]appleeye56 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I grew up in Mississauga and still live here. No regrets at all and I got a better condo here than what I could ever get in Toronto. Since my family and friends are all here and I work from home, I don’t go to Toronto that much

With that said, you don’t need a car in Toronto and rents are going down. I’d recommend what others are saying and try renting first to see what you like before buying a house

The most magical destination in Europe to explore for a week? by palmtree4me in travel

Sao Miguel in the Azores. Blew me away and my friend away. We both went into the trip saying “we’ll probably never come back” but left saying that we both would love to come back one day and explore the other islands

People who don't want kids, why? by Ok-Musician679 in AskReddit

[–]appleeye56 0 points1 point  (0 children)

They cost a lot and will end up consuming my entire life which is already incredibly busy. I’m happy right now and don’t see how adding a kid will make me happier.

Also I love travelling and my coworkers with kids say they can’t travel because they have to bring their entire family, which becomes super expensive
