Okay, Hitler.
Okay, Hitler.
Most of us can, yea.
I’ve been gaming with a 2080ti in Wayland for about a year now. I can’t say I’ve had any issues related to my graphics card at all. The only hiccups I’ve had are with a couple of games, maybe two, that I had to tweak to run. They were known issues with public fixes. It’s been a great experience.
There was an issue a few months back with multi monitor setups. Anytime I changed a monitor input, it would hard lock. It’s fixed now.
NGL, I don’t think that this was the response I was expecting. If you’re being sincere, then I apologize for the hostility in what I’ve said. I got heated and said some things that are harsh. I know that as a straight caucasian male that I come from a place of privilege, and it’s definitely easier to say something than it is to do something.
It’s difficult for me to wrap my head around the idea that talking about pregnancy can be a trigger in this sense, but I do empathize with your situation. When I said I grew up in a small down with no out gay people, that was true. Within a year of me graduating, at least 5 maybe a couple more of my class of around 70 came out. One of them definitely went through some shit in school, because kids can be awful. I can proudly say I wasn’t one of the bullies, but you’d have to live under a rock to not see it happening. I have no doubts that that can have a slew of possible effects that carry on into adulthood.
That’s a lot of words to say, I hope that if you’re going through some stuff or still fighting demons, that you find your way and live a happy life with the partner of your choosing.
Someone is starting a family? Someone is going through an emotional situation? Someone is going getting IVF? There’s a lot more to having a child than fucking. Again, the fact that your mind immediately jumps to that conclusion and further that it grosses you out is extremely juvenile. There are 5th graders learning about sex ed that handle the notion of PIV sex better than you, who I assume is an adult.
I think that if you immediately jump to PIV sex, that’s fucked up. Grow up, be an adult. That’s it. Other than that, take control of your own life. You don’t like people putting you down for being gay? Don’t put up with it. Stick up for yourself, or don’t. Idgaf.
They just checked voter registration. Easy pickins from there.
Eeewwwwwwww.
You’re changing “trying to have a baby” to “unprotected vaginal sex” which is not what’s being said, and comparing that to you saying “cuddling your BF”. If you immediately jump to the specific details about them having sex, that’s a you problem and kinda fucked up.
If you want to say you’re cuddling your BF this weekend, and people are upset about it, put them on the spot and ask why. There’s absolutely nothing wrong with that statement. Publicly shame people for their bigotry, and maybe they’ll grow up or at least shut up.
I’m not gay. I worked in manufacturing for almost a decade, and those environments tend to attract a certain demographic of people. One June I put a rainbow flag up on my desk and it stayed there until I left the company. One of my favorite past times was pressuring people who made back handed comments to explain them. Admittedly, I grew up in a small town with 3 black people and no out gay people. It took me a minute to get comfortable with something that I grew up thinking was disgusting because of my surroundings. I fortunately didn’t have to be shamed into change, just exposure was enough, but there are others that will never get there on their own.
What’s the difference between “we’re trying to have a baby” and “we’ve tried and we’re having a baby”?
If I were to tell you that I have 3 kids, would you also be disgusted that I’ve had vaginal sex at least 3 times? Or is that somehow different?
Unpopular opinion for sure, but one built on immaturity and inability to reason as an adult.
If you were in an office and someone says that they are dropping loads in their wife, yea, that’s fucked up and significantly different from saying that they’re trying to have a child.
Two sides to every coin.
As a whole it sounds like a, “you’re wrong, educate yourself, there’s only one way out of this”. I did intentionally say “kinda like a dick”, because it wasn’t super harsh, just enough off putting.
The edits were the icing that put everyone else off.
Apologies, I didn’t realize that you weren’t the person that I originally responded to.
I’m not trying to convince them. I don’t give a fuck if they change their tone. I was only telling them why the post wasn’t well received.
Edit: didn’t realize the response was a different user.
I’m not trying to convince anyone of something. I’m just telling why you’re they are being downvoted, and it’s not because of the content of your their post. I’d post differently if I were trying to make a sincere point.
It’s not that we don’t agree with you, it’s that your kinda acting like a dick. Change your tone and you might get a better reception.
There seems like a very easy solution here that doesn’t require AI.
ACAB.
With that out of the way, I’m ok having a specially trained and competent department or whatever to handle high pressure dangerous situations that they are equipped for literally and mentally (deescalation, negotiating, etc). Really, I think that could probably be a job for the national guard. It’s unfortunate that the world has bad enough people that sometimes armed personnel are required, but it should be under trained, power hungry gangsters cops.
I love text chats with a person, but I feel most of the time that when I start with a text chat with a bot and get transferred to a real agent, they ask all of the same questions, like info gathering name, phone, email, etc. it’s almost as if the real people can’t see the transcript of the conversation I had with the bot.
The thing is, most of those chats that I’ve worked with for years are simple chat bots, not AI, and those are plenty effective for their purpose. They have their preset question tree and that’s it. I may also be a little skewed in my experiences compared to a lot of people, since I’ve worked in IT for over a decade, so often when in reaching out to service, it’s something more advanced where I need a person to actually talk to. Also, anything billing or containing private information. I under no circumstances want that fed into an LLM or accessible to an AI agent so it can be shared accidentally to someone else.
That says a lot about how worthless if a human he is.
