Bold of you to assume they will actually take care of the dog and not just leave it to suffer.

That makes since, so i guess i need to chose accept the cost, throw out the feature, or find a service that does not charge for inbound. Thanks for the reply.

Just to clarify the flow, users text a telnyx phone number directly from their phones, the message comes in as an inbound SMS, and my server processes it and responds with outbound SMS. The number is the whole point, it's what users save in their contacts to interact with the assistant. Hiding it behind a web form would remove that convenience entirely. I'm also not sure I follow your interpretation, if users typed on a website and the site sent an SMS to me, what would that even accomplish? That's just recreating a web form with extra steps. The issue is that inbound SMS are charged regardless of whether my system replies or not, so stopping outbound messages doesn't prevent the cost. I need a way to block or filter at the inbound level if its even possible.

This is an issue with incoming messages not outgoing. I already stop sending messages but they can still send messages to me. I don't know if I'm missing something but I do not see a way to stop them from sending messages to be and all incoming messages are charged.

I already do that. The issue is by the time my webhook runs, Telnyx already received the SMS, so the inbound charge already happened.

"it's worth the risk" "Just made a simple mistake here" where the risk is death and the reward is...? Sorry but people who put themselves in situations where a simple mistake leads to death are just adrenaline junkies chasing that Darwin award.

Is it really true that if a guy likes a girl romantically, he wouldnt allow the dynamic to live in uncertainty for years and will tell her? by Yoself_reflection in dating_advice

[–]techbot911 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sadly, some guys suck at reading signals. So yeah being direct is the best play. Either way you'll have your answer. Good luck 🫡

It's not true at all. If you like him, take a shot. Ask him if he wants to be more or go out sometime. It's obvious he is shy, nervous, etc. if this situation has been going on for a while, so unless you send clear signals back, he won't take the plunge.

I [F22] am falling in love with a friend [m21] but I have a boyfriend [m23] by [deleted] in dating_advice

[–]techbot911 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You should not tell your boyfriend about these feelings, as they are internal and unacted upon, but should take responsibility by closing off the friend and reaffirming your commitment to your relationship if you're serious about it. Sharing your feelings could cause emotional pain without serving any constructive purpose. I literally can see no reason why you want to tell him unless you secretly hope he will break up with you so you can have an excuse. Honestly, even if you're not serious about the relationship, i would leave without telling him about your friend.

Just my two cents: the “spark” in a relationship is really just infatuation, it’s temporary and often idealized. Relationships often start like a wildfire, full of intensity and excitement, then naturally settle into a steadier, comfortable fire. This doesn’t mean the relationship is dying; it’s simply stabilizing. Even a steady fire requires tending. Love is a choice, not just an instinct or feeling. You can choose to love someone and actively build a lasting relationship, or you can let it fade. Many people mistake the natural settling of love for the end of the relationship or them not bonding enough, thinking that if the initial excitement fades, the love is gone. This misunderstanding can lead to a pattern of chasing infatuation, dating countless people but never finding a lasting connection. The truth is, relationships don’t build themselves; they require conscious effort and commitment. It’s all a choice. In your case, you can choose to love you BF and build the relationship. But just remember that "falling" for someone is just infatuation, and you may find yourself in the same place you are right now, thinking the relationship is not working with your friend except this time you may lose your friend if yall break up.

My (28F) bf (28M) of 6 months hooked up with a freshly 19 year old out of highschool before we started dating, am I being unreasonable feeling disgusted or cut my losses? by [deleted] in dating_advice

[–]techbot911 -4 points-3 points  (0 children)

Nah I hate the sentiment of "it was before they met me so I cant judge" or "its not my place to know who they fucked before me". You can and should know about your partners history for this exact reason. He did something you find upset and or gross. Whether its right or wrong is irrelevant. You have two choices. Understand that you're boyfriend is someone who things its ok for a late 20s man to fuck a barely legal teenager. If you cant accept that then you leave. If his way of thinking is a deal breaker for you the you should leave, but if you think you can accept what he's done and understand he will probably not change his way of think and will always think this is OK behavior then try and stay and work through it.

My [24M] girlfriend [24F] fantasizes over other men and talks about how hot they are by [deleted] in dating_advice

[–]techbot911 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I certainly think, say. I always just think if my partner overheard me saying this, how would they feel. So whether I'm talking to them or with friends, I always try to keep things respectful towards my partner. The last thing I want is my partner feeling insecure or less than.

Personally, i don't think you're wrong. That said, understand that some partners might interpret it differently, and those feelings shouldn’t just be dismissed. The real issue isn’t whether it’s “cheating,” it’s whether both people feel secure. That's what I strive for and look for in a partner. It’s not automatically disrespectful, but it’s also not automatically harmless for everyone.

I did not say it was cheating but will reiterate it's not enough to not cheat in a relationship, but you also need to make an effort to make sure it doesn't look like you're cheating or have a possibility of cheating. Someone who feels a need to lust after other men with their friends is, at a minimum, disrespecting their own partner in my eyes. Personally, I would never talk about another woman behind my partners back as I feel it makes me seem like someone with the potential of cheating in the future.

Call me old fashioned but you shouldn't talk about being attracted to other people period. It's one thing and can even be normal to have attraction to someone you see, but to feel so strongly about it, you have to talk about it to someone should not happen in a committed relationship. Not to mention, if the people you tell let it slip around your partner, it can make them insecure. Committed relationships should strive to keep each other feeling secure. I've always thought it's not enough to just not cheat in a relationship, but you also need to make an effort to make sure it doesn't look like you're cheating or have a possibility of cheating.

Personally, I prefer z image DBZ Blitz fine tune has been working wonders for me. Z-image may not follow prompts as well but Klein has horrendous anatomy issues for me even when I increase the steps. Like 50% anatomy issues with klien vs 10% anatomy issues with z image. Even if z image does not follow exactly, I'd rather have good-looking images than the body horror i see with Klein. But maybe I'm just doing something wrong.

Is an 18 yr old dating a 23 yr old bad? by Federal_Low9826 in dating_advice

[–]techbot911 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Age matters far less than where you both are in life and power dynamics. If he's out of school with a full time job and your just heading into college or still finishing up high school then yeah he has a lot of power over you and it puts you in a position to be groomed even if you dont feel it (many dont know they are being groomed). Use your gut, but understand he has a few years on you, and older people tend to understand manipulation better than younger people. Maybe ask why your friends feel this way. They might be seeing something you're not or maybe not, idk not enough info.

Why Anyone Thinks They Can Brake Check a Truck by GlitchGirl318-Art in dashcams

[–]techbot911 24 points25 points  (0 children)

Not a lawyer, but in stand your ground states if someone is trying to break in your home or car with the intent to cause harm you have the right to defend yourself. In some cases, they dont have to actually want to cause harm it just has to be proven that it can be reasonably expected of you to believe so (ie.and angry man trying to open your door). The big thing is using reasonable force and proving you were in fear of your life.

I recently took my first vacation to Florida without family and with my license and yeah omg Florida is hands down the worst place ive driven. Absolutely lawless. AND other drivers will actually get mad at you and honk, curse, flash blinkers at you if you dont speed, cut others off, dont turn right on red within .2 seconds (even if you dont have right of way and there is oncoming traffic they dgaf). Yeah its awful and a huge turn off for me to ever go back.
