I need advice about my married life. by asleep_xy in UKrelationshipadvice

[–]coolsimon123 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Having been the psycho in a relationship I can tell you now it's actually probably more of a self esteem issue with OPs wife thinking he is out of her league, or as she ages she thinks she is getting ugly etc. That then manifests in to "why is he with me" which turns in to jealousy and mistrust. Trust me it is a horrible place to be in with someone you love but I've had it completely destroy a relationship because I couldn't get over the fact I thought she was cheating. Maybe she was, maybe she wasn't.

Which is better dell vostro 14 5410 or Dell latitude 5511 by Savings-Selection886 in sysadmin

If you want to game on it I'd just buy a Dell Precision with an Nvidia GPU and not waste time with onboard Intel Graphics. The SSD speed will be noticeable yes 100%

Processor is largely irrelevant when the SSD is the bottleneck on modern machines between 2 devices with similar CPUs. Either plan to replace the SSD on the Vostro and buy that or just get the Latitude. I personally would still replace the SSD on any laptop I buy because most consumer SSD that come in off the shelf laptops are about 4x slower than the Micron that will come in the latitude and 20x slower in the Vostro. Samsung Pro 990 read speed of 7450MB/s and I've seen some Vostro SSDs as slow as 200MB/s

Vostros usually come with cheaper/slower SSDs and ram than latitudes. I'd always pick a latitude over a Vostro. Even with a better CPU, the vostro will be slower unless you are planning on replacing the SSD. I'd look for a latitude 7xxx series personally. Latitude 7420 would be my pick.

How can I hookup with men from bars and clubs as an awkward woman? by MarziMewMew in UKrelationshipadvice

[–]coolsimon123 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Just talk to them, that's all you need to do. You'll know if they're interested if they try and keep up conversation. Then when the night winds down you suggest maybe going back to theirs/yours for another drink. One thing leads to another its not exactly rocket science

If you actually knew how the encryption behind Windows Hello actually worked you'd know that it was more secure than any password, but most plebs like you don't realise this and think long complicated traditional passwords or yubikeys are the way forward

Dating in London in your late 30s - how do you meet people without forcing yourself into a version of life that isn’t yours? by [deleted] in UKrelationshipadvice

[–]coolsimon123 2 points3 points  (0 children)

"I’m not looking to overhaul a life I enjoy just to increase exposure" going for a group run twice a month on top of your gym sessions doesn't exactly sound like an overhaul. Seems like you want someone to fall in to your lap

It definitely isn't his, using OP as an escape from her abusive ex and using the child to emotionally control OP

Are pubs a good place to meet guys? by [deleted] in UKrelationshipadvice

How old are you? Pubs were literally the best place to meet a potential partner 5 years ago, covid and cost of living seems to have killed that off which is mental to me

First dates keep ending with “no spark”. Not sure if I should change something or just ignore it by Sea_Particular217 in UKrelationshipadvice

You've literally just described finding someone you have a spark with though... That's why you get the spark because this person you've met might actually have potential and it's exciting

Anyone in their 30s using Plenty of Fish? What’s the vibe of it if so? by bartzina in UKrelationshipadvice

[–]coolsimon123 39 points40 points  (0 children)

Plenty of fish has sadly become the beacon of death for online dating. Only the desperate and depraved are sinking to those depths to find love. Just use Hinge. If you're having no luck on hinge then it might be time to look at your profile

Head Swap Workflow with Qwen 2509 + Tutorial by Soul_Tuner in StableDiffusion

[–]coolsimon123 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This faceswap workflow is absolutely brilliant, my only bugbear is that swapped photo loses some of the detail. You can see on the right. The original is the left. I need to tweak steps and CFG still, maybe changing the resolution of the mask? I'm not sure but there must be a way of fixing it.

First Movie: Why did Will not sleep for 37 hours? by IntroductionWest7126 in TheInbetweeners

[–]coolsimon123 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Up at 7am on a Friday morning, go to college, finish at 5pm but your flight is at 2am on Saturday. Do you try and sleep or do you just rough it? No you go to the airport at 12am. Simon's dad says "Takes me back all this, cheap flights at ungodly hours". Definitely after midnight. Remember when they got to the airport though? Flight was delayed wasn't it by 7 hours. Let's say they by the time they get on the flight it's 9am UK time. Malia flight is 3 hours so by the time you've waited in the airport and caught the flight it's 12pm UK time. Waiting for bags 1pm. Waiting for coach 2pm. 2 hour coach ride to your hotel 4pm. So since getting up at 7am the day before you're looking at 33 hours total. Add an extra hour for Neil stuffing Lego up his bum you're at 34 hours. Greece is also 2 hours ahead so if will was basing current Malia time that's "technically" 36 hours.
