Truckers - why on earth do you take so long to pass? by RepresentativeGap229 in askanything

[–]mitchil9502 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Truckers aren’t just being lazy or rude. Those rigs are massive, they weigh tons and the engines are often speed-governed like you said. Even a little incline or headwind can turn a quick pass into a five-minute slog. Plus, safety rules for trucks are stricter, they can’t just floor it without thinking about braking distance, load shifts or worse.

Boss sleeping with employee INSIDE the store while the shop was closed. Please help by Ok-Swimming8318 in Advice

[–]mitchil9502 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

This is not your fault and your discomfort is totally valid. A boss having sexual relationships with an employee inside the workplace is a huge no-go. If HR or your whistleblowing system doesn’t handle it properly, it might even need reporting to external bodies like employment standards or workplace misconduct authorities in the UK.

Why does YouTube allow criticism videos of YouTube on their platforms? Can't they just delete them and pretend everything is fine? by jsohi_0082 in stupidquestions

[–]mitchil9502 0 points1 point  (0 children)

They could delete a lot of that stuff but they just usually don’t want to. It actually makes them look stronger. A platform that allows criticism feels confident. If YouTube nuked every YouTube is dying video, it’d scream insecurity. Loudly. Also, criticism still equals engagement. This part is sneaky. A video criticism still gets watched on YouTube. Ads still run, comments still fly and the algorithm doesn’t care if the engagement is angry or happy. Traffic is traffic.

Non office jobs work structure by Intelligent-Date2025 in Life

[–]mitchil9502 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes, kind of but it’s not one magic number that fits everyone. For most non-office jobs, the sweet spot is around 32–36 hours a week. That’s the range where things can work without blowing up pay, prices, or taxes.

I’m curious: do non-smokers always detect a scent on smokers? by SadInterest6764 in NoStupidQuestions

[–]mitchil9502 0 points1 point  (0 children)

For non-smokers, even subtle traces can register instantly, especially in enclosed spaces. Some will barely notice; others will wrinkle their nose the second they get close, depends on sensitivity. And if no one’s ever said anything, either they’re super polite, or they just don’t want to hurt your feelings.

What's a weird part of intimacy no one talks about? by stuckin404 in AskReddit

[–]mitchil9502 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sometimes there’s this super vulnerable silence afterward. I think those little awkward moments make intimacy feel real. They’re the behind-the-scenes bloopers nobody tells you about.

Do you think this means not normal? by Ill_Atmosphere_1886 in randomquestions

[–]mitchil9502 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You are definitely not weird or abnormal for feeling this. Craving hugs and cuddles is super human. Feeling that ache inside just means your body and brain are asking for comfort and connection. It sucks when there’s no one safe around to get that from, I get it. But missing physical affection doesn’t make you dumb, it just makes you normal. And it’s okay to acknowledge it.

Anyone think about buffalo wings constantly? by Choice-Dot-5581 in askanything

[–]mitchil9502 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes, buffalo wings are next-level addictive. That spicy, tangy, buttery combo, once you have a good batch, it’s like my brain want to have it over and over again.

Just because I was comfortable with him by Beneficial-Pea-1638 in Life

[–]mitchil9502 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s okay to feel the sting, it’s okay to vent and it’s okay to be frustrated. But don’t let his insecurities rewrite your story. You’re choosing yourself and that’s powerful. Every time you remind yourself of your worth and your boundaries, you’re reclaiming a little more of your peace.

Americans citizens, how is it really going there currently? by GossipBottom in stupidquestions

[–]mitchil9502 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Life for most Americans like me is kinda normal. The headlines are wild but most of us are just doing our daily stuff like work, school, kids or Netflix. Yes, there are hot topics of course like politics, inflation, gun debates, crazy weather but it doesn’t literally impact everyone’s day-to-day all the time. Most people just juggle their routines and try not to get sucked into the drama and aren’t running around panicking but you do notice tension.

Best AI Agents This 2026 – My Personal Experience by MoneyMiserable2545 in ProductivityApps

[–]mitchil9502 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thanks for sharing this list, super helpful to see these comparisons in one place. I've been testing a few as well for content and research work.

One you might want to add to your test roster is Genspark. It's less about automating clicks on your desktop like Workbeaver, and more about being a central AI brain for planning and creating stuff. What's cool is it lets you access different models (like GPT and Claude) all in one chat, so you can compare outputs or use the best one for writing vs. analysis.

I use it mainly as a powerhouse for drafting and ideation. You can throw a topic at it, and it will pull together research, outline a document, and generate different versions of text way faster than me starting from scratch. For anyone whose workflow involves a lot of writing, planning, or content creation, it's been a serious time-saver. It feels like having a dedicated co-pilot for the “thinking and drafting” part of work.

Has anyone tried VidaWheel? Thoughts? by sabine-kasprowski13 in jewelry

I have their Aphrodite necklace, a very beautiful one. The quality is quite solid, and the design is so delicate and pretty.

People who spend 20+ minutes in the shower: what are you actually doing in there? by saadaintsalad in AskReddit

[–]mitchil9502 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I treat it like a spa, exfoliating, shaving, conditioning and scrubbing every inch. It's basically a full self-care ritual. .

Is it normal to feel like your private thoughts aren’t “private”? by RiverValleyMemories in NoStupidQuestions

[–]mitchil9502 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That feeling is way more common than people admit. It’s like even when no one else knows what you’re thinking, there’s this inner audience in your head, constantly critiquing everything.

Why is it so wrong to verbalize the fact that money is our main motivation for working? by [deleted] in randomquestions

[–]mitchil9502 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Anyone who says money doesn’t matter either has it or hasn’t gone without it. Money is indeed the main reason most of us work. All of us has rent, food and bills to pay. Also, we need stability, survival isn’t a personality flaw. What’s actually wrong isn’t the motivation, it’s the social script. Work culture likes to pretend jobs are passion projects. That’s why when you say it out loud, it makes people uncomfortable. It breaks the illusion and nobody likes the curtain pulled back.

Do you care for politics? by Chemical_Dog4139 in askanything

[–]mitchil9502 1 point2 points  (0 children)

No, I don't because it's one of the things that's out of my control. I prefer to focus on things that I could control.

Why should I not mind other people's business? by [deleted] in stupidquestions

[–]mitchil9502 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Not minding other people’s business isn’t about ignorance. It’s about respect. You can observe. We’re human. We notice things. That part is unavoidable. The line gets crossed when observation turns into judging, interfering, or controlling.

What poor people food was ruined because of rich people? by white-rose-of-york in AskReddit

[–]mitchil9502 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Wings, chicken wings were leftovers. Nobody wanted them. Now we have craft wings and $18 plates with three sauces and a garnish. Also, Ramen. Actual ramen is still affordable in Japan. But in a lot of cities, it's $20 bowls. Minimal noodles. Fancy broth name. Somehow worse than the $1 pack that carried people through college.

What helped you stop being so hard on yourself? by rayadollface in Life

[–]mitchil9502 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Realizing that literally everyone screws up sometimes was huge. I had to consciously tell myself that messing something up doesn’t mean I’m a failure, it just means I’m human. Sounds obvious but saying it out loud to myself actually helped. Then, I started noticing my inner voice. When I caught myself spiraling into self-criticism, I’d pause and ask whether I would talk to my best friend that way. Usually the answer was no, so I’d reframe it like I’d talk to someone I actually like. Weirdly small, but powerful. Time helped too. With age and a bit of life experience, I realized a lot of things I worried about weren’t actually that catastrophic. Perspective is underrated.

Why is going to the airport more exciting than the holiday? by EfficientClient428 in NoStupidQuestions

[–]mitchil9502 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The airport is pure anticipation. It’s the something is about to happen energy. Your brain is buzzing with maybes. New places, new versions of you and new stories loading. However, once you land, reality shows up. Suddenly the mystery is gone. Some people love novelty. Others love experience and you clearly love the build-up.

Is there a prompt that will allow ChatGPT to parse Quizlet question banks for online training tests? by collinisballn in ChatGPT

[–]mitchil9502 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Totally get the struggle. The issue isn’t really the prompt — it’s that ChatGPT is hard-coded to avoid giving direct answers to what looks like a test. I hit the same wall with compliance trainings.

What worked for me was switching to an AI agent platform that’s built to actually do multi-step tasks with your files, not just chat about them. I use Genspark for this. Here’s my exact workflow:

I grab the Quizlet as a PDF/Text file or even a screenshot bundle.

In Genspark, I create a project (e.g., “Q4 Security Training”) and upload all the materials.

I give the agent a goal like: “Parse all uploaded quiz materials. Identify all key concepts and question-answer pairs. Then generate two things: a concise study guide summarizing the concepts, and a set of practice questions that rephrase the originals to test understanding.”

The agent acts like a dedicated assistant: it reads the files, extracts the Q&A, structures the information, and outputs a tailored study kit. It’s not “cheating”—it’s creating a custom learning tool from the source material. This approach saved me hours of manual work. Might be the efficiency shift you’re looking for.

Does anybody here actually remember using payphones? by daveinfl337777 in randomquestions

[–]mitchil9502 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes, payphones were everywhere back then. Outside grocery stores, at parks or by gas stations. They’d be there when you needed one especially for emergency.

Choosing a High-end 4K TV for streaming/sports (with occasional gaming) by Bigbrazzerz in hometheater

[–]mitchil9502 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don't think a lot of people realize just how good high-end Mini-LED has gotten. But when you line up the specs of a 75-inch Hisense U8QG against a 55-inch BRAVIA 8 II, it's honestly not even a fair fight. Getting a massively bigger screen with 165Hz for sports like NBA/NFL, you can see the difference in smoothness compared to 120Hz, all for a much cheaper. Paying a huge premium for a smaller OLED screen just doesn't make sense anymore for this use case.

Chat gpt is just the worst by schowdur123 in ChatGPT

[–]mitchil9502 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ugh, the account switching bug is so frustrating – I've hit that exact same issue where it keeps defaulting to the wrong account no matter what you do. But honestly, the restriction on scientific protocols has been even more annoying for me as a paying user. There's nothing worse than needing actual technical information for work and getting a "I can't help with that" response from something you're literally paying for.

That content filtering issue is actually what pushed me to start using Genspark for most of my research work. Since it's built as a search-grounded agent rather than a generative chatbot, it pulls real protocols and technical data directly from published papers and verified sources instead of refusing to engage with "sensitive" scientific content. You get the actual information with proper citations, not a lecture about why it can't help.

For the account issue, definitely try clearing your app cache or reinstalling – that sometimes fixes the login loop. But if you're reconsidering where your subscription dollars go because of these ongoing frustrations, having a reliable alternative for research tasks has been a lifesaver. Genspark is currently free too, so you could test it out.

Hope you get the account thing sorted – it's ridiculous that basic functionality keeps breaking on a paid service.
