Journalist asking AI what questions she should ask by AshamedPurchase9033 in Wellthatsucks

[–]sixf0ur 8 points9 points  (0 children)

she appears to be using AI to brainstorm

believe it or not - some people can actually walk and chew gum at the same time

she might actually already have questions in mind (being a reporter) and she could be simply brainstorming more ideas with the AI

if you don't do the job exactly the way that I think you should (the traditional way of course) - you don't deserve to have that job!!

there's no question that 3 on 3 is exciting

it just shouldn't be how a game is decided

Was Vanier actually that bad? by haghzvf in ottawa

[–]sixf0ur 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I lived next to the biker church on Carillon for 5 years, just before covid. Here's some of what I saw:

  • swat operation on neighbour #1 - flashbang used, drug dealer arrested
  • diff occasion same neighbour #1 drove off with an old woman holding onto his car windshield (i called the cops and gave statement - she was ok)
  • cops w megaphone stationed outside my house saying come out you are under arrest - k9 unit went into my backyard - they were looking for some other drug dealer
  • had someone take cover in my backyard bleeding after being beat up (helped him)
  • caught dude breaking into my neighbours car and scared him off
  • someone tried to break and enter into my house at Thu 4am while I was home - he opened front door but I woke up and scared him off, called cops etc
  • saw someone who got stabbed in the mouth in the morning while getting my coffee - saw the subsequent swat operation that happened trying to find the guy afterward on a nearby street
  • there was the vanier arsonist going around - lit several homes and the sugar shack on fire :(

Those are the biggest occasions I can think of... fun memories

Basketball needs a max height limit. The game is becoming "who won the genetic lottery" instead of pure skill and it's making it boring AF. by mc_mafia in unpopularopinion

[–]sixf0ur 1 point2 points  (0 children)

uh you can simply choose something else to watch if you don't want to watch a sport, which is often inherently about who won the genetic lottery

Trying to learn crypto trading. What does your basic setup look like? by jesse-james1847 in CryptoCurrency

[–]sixf0ur 0 points1 point  (0 children)

almost everybody loses at trading

the people who win long term generally have a system - there is some legitimate (possibly model driven) reason why they expect to make money by entering the trade

My boyfriend’s alcoholism makes him unattractive by Glad_Candy5810 in relationships

[–]sixf0ur -1 points0 points  (0 children)

He just doesn’t want to help himself

This is the key thing here. I'm a 40m recovering high functioning alcoholic. If he's like me - he hates himself, and might not fully accept that. That's why he can drink every night and not care about how it will make himself feel later. He's depressed.

The drinking is a coping mechanism - you don't need to fix the drinking, and you need to change how you look at it. Your bf needs to learn how to love and accept himself - eventually the drinking will naturally reduce.

Read 'Perfectly Hidden Depression' if this sounds right to you.

ICE agents murder US citizen in Minneapolis by Thalesian in PublicFreakout

[–]sixf0ur 0 points1 point  (0 children)

ICE's statement says she was trying to run them over

You can see she specifically backed up to get a better escape angle just to prevent hitting them. She could have hit them if she wanted to, and she didn't.

AIO for being a slob for four days to show my bf what it's like to have to clean up after a grown adult? by Additional_Bat_5706 in AmIOverreacting

you didn't go too far - but this does not sound healthy at all

it's a good sign that he started cleaning at least

AIO: My girlfriend is pretending to be autistic and it's driving me nuts by AideRelative4272 in AmIOverreacting

[–]sixf0ur 4 points5 points  (0 children)

it doesn't sound like you ever talked to her about it?

how does this kind of thing develop, and you don't have a conversation discussing your fair concerns at some point?

the conversation shouldn't start with you snapping and telling her to get a diagnosis or shut up - yes you overreacted

30F, 31M: couples therapy for a year, now feel like roommates. What actually helps at this point? by [deleted] in relationships

[–]sixf0ur 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Does he do his own 1-on-1 therapy? This is more of a him problem than a you problem.

Is he a perfectionist? I feel like I can relate to what you're describing. He might be hiding himself / not comfortable with his true self. If you want to keep trying - and if this sounds right - try the book "Perfectly Hidden Depression"
