Totally okay to feel this way OP!!!

Best thing I read from all the comments so far was getting to know the woman more. There might be some small chance she happens be super mature? I don’t know, there are people who have spent multiple decades on this planet and we’re left with a few positive things to say about them and their maturity. Then you had the Greta Thunbergs & Malala Yousafzais whose brains likely developed far faster than almost any of their peers…

48 & 28, or any age and like 30, would certainly be a much better age gap. Not because I’m ageist but owing to statistics, probabilities, all that… it just helps when someone reaches a certain age where you become fairly confident they must’ve become an adult at some point and figured some stuff out. Then you are able to relax a bit with the otherwise inherent suspicions.

There are 8 billion of us. Presumably more than zero 18-year-olds will be happier, more fulfilled, even better off should they join an older partner. They will be exceptions to the rule. (Rule… like half your age +7 maybe? Would = 31 for your paps.) I guess I like to give people the benefit of the doubt (though keep in mind “more than zero“ is saying very little).

It is a BADDDDD look. It is unlikely it’s all gravy. Non-zero chance, though—non-zero chance it’s not the worst thing ever. Since it’s not illegal, you’ve time to sleep on it all some more and keep thinking where to go. Can make a new post here next week with more thoughts and questions. We’ll be here for ya buddy. (Can DM me if we miss it)


Final thought, I remember something (maybe “best of Reddit“) where someone eloquently ELI5’d to a young woman why although it felt so awesome to be with an older guy there were risks and why it wasn’t a good look for the guy essentially I think. Maybe someone remembers the post and can find it. Then if you get to know the young woman more, and you realize she… ~~is delusional~~ (sry sounds offensive, just mean she’s actually mentally 17 like her birthday would predict), you would have this great way of explaining to her why the whole older guy thing isn’t isn’t Bee’s Knees.

Problem is there’re coming for the internet I have to imagine

Kimmel, Colbert, Oliver - let’s say they all just doing YouTube or their own websites tomorrow. The content will make the admin just as mad, so that means the admin has to go after the web.

Decentralized meshnets our only hope?

Disabled man gifted custom software built with ChatGPT - how could the anti-AI cohort reckon with this not-quite-inverse Robinhood kind of scheme? (corp steals from world, man uses for good)

(corp steals from world, man uses theft to help brother communicate)

Wanted to ask on /c/fuck_ai but didn’t want to get banned or ruffle feathers and miss a good discussion

Replies are welcome regardless of whether anyone personally finds the “theft“ premise preposterous - probably most useful as a thought experiment here, to pretend you & I are arguing against someone who has always been anti-AI

OK, so Apple isn't big on responding to feedback:

Nickkk's numbers eclipse mine: I'm 0/10 on responses/acknowledgments/signs of life over the past couple of years. And you know what...

That's OK. They're telling us they're too big for that. OK.

Accepting this fact, how can Apple avoid hurting their fanboys' little feelings, like through better transparency setting expectations? Could we get some recognition, some social features, automated acknowledgments, a "thanks, archiving" email after 18mo w/o response for a sense of closure... anything?


vWill I do free labor if it fixes annoying bugs in products I use myself, yes.

Will I continue shouting into the void, well even I've gotta put my foot down somewhere.
