  • How do you make proper "I am interested in you." eye contact?

    Jump

  • I'm not yet 30 and I think it's good applicable advice. I think you can actually practice a lot of these skills by making friends. The difference between romantic and platonic isn't that big.

  • How do you make proper "I am interested in you." eye contact?

    Jump

  • So I think the question could be refined a little. Eye contact helps build connection between people, but it's not the only piece of the puzzle. Maybe a better question is "'How do I communicate more empathetically?"

    There's another question; "How do I let someone know I'm interested?" This question is related to the first in that trying to get close to another person (being vulnerable with each other) and communicating your feelings is how you let someone know your interested.

    TLDR: get to know them and tell them you're interested. If they say they're not interested you can probably still be friends since you already got to know each other. Empathy and humility/vulnerability are key in building relationships.

  • Trump rages at Biden for wrecking his plans for executions: ‘Makes no sense’

    Jump

  • Yeah sorry that's what I meant, long day at work. no sympathy for the people on death row, either way they should not be allowed back into normal society.

  • Trump rages at Biden for wrecking his plans for executions: ‘Makes no sense’

    Jump

  • Yep I'm anti-death penalty, the 3 that didn't get pardoned should probably just live the rest of their lives in prison. But I'm not going to shed any tears for them.

  • Matt Gaetz, former Trump AG pick, had sex with underage girl while in Congress, House Ethics report says

    Jump

  • That would matter in New York, just ask Jerry Seinfeld

  • I'll need eternal youth with it though

    Jump

  • So like, what problem does immortality solve? Because when I think about, it's just giving me more time to deal with more problems. Like how good of a person I am doesn't change if I live longer.

    How would being immortal make your life better? because I'm just not sure I get it.

  • Soon, the tech behind ChatGPT may help drone operators decide which enemies to kill

    Jump

  • Ah, because whoever they kill is definitely an enemy. If they were already infallible why do they need AI?

  • How would you process the fact that a new friend of yours is a cop? (USA)

    Jump

  • I have a couple of friends in law enforcement (NYPD & state Police). They tend to be best cops around, one of them is being sent to be a trainer so he can get some bigger promotions.

    You got to ask yourself and maybe them if they are a good person. All cops are bad because of what the system does to them. But who they are in spite of what that system is doing says more about who they are as a person.

    Chances are they'll have edgy jokes, but you've been on the Internet long enough to end up here, so I'm sure you can navigate that.

    Remember conservatives hate liberal arts colleges because people who are exposed to diversity are more tolerant of it.

    You have 300billion dollars to use for the good of the country/planet. What do you do?

    Jump

  • Assuming it's the US

    • set up a fund to provide free school lunches until the government provides them
    • give grants for people to set up housing co-ops
    • hire my own army of Russian trolls (they do not need to be Russian, I am inclusive to all trolls) to fracture conservative unity/support progressive
    • buy up some social media companies. (YouTube would be best, but I don't the 300 billion is enough) make the algorithm progressive
    • whatever is left over goes to renewables and conservation efforts

  • ChatGPT is right-wing and Gemini is left-wing: Why each AI has its own ideology

    Jump

  • It's really annoying actually. Sometimes you're asking something completely benign, and it's likes sorry I'm an AI and I can't do anything.

    Example: I asked it what a commonplace book was. Apparently language models don't have the capacity to help with that!

  • Why am I crying now?

    Jump

  • I think they're implying that legitimate things are immediate, sad, and personal. But I think all of these options are legitimate reasons to cry.

    What's an illegitimate reason? To manipulate someone

  • City folks are definitely a thing, and suburban folks ain't much different. The US is big and has a lot of rural communities. Even the most populated states (California, Texas, New York) all have large areas of agriculture or otherwise sparse population

  • Love the annual tradition

  • safety meeting over here

  • 'You deceived millions of us!': Trump fans tell him they're outraged over Navy pick

    Jump

  • I wonder if they thought picking Big E to represent trump was ironic or not. Because the emperor made a bunch of mistakes that made everything a whole lot worse for a whole bunch of people. Like this is dystopian fiction we're talking about.

    The orks are good, but only from their moral lens. Fighting=good, green=good, gits=bad, krumping gits=good. The only reason we think of them is good is because there's a lot of information on orc psychology, whereas we see the other races as more or less human instead of the aliens that they are.

    Fuck i should help make the Warhammer communities here more active

  • Elon Musk says too many game studios are owned by giant corporations so his giant corporation is going to start a studio to 'make games great again'

    Jump

  • Umm, okay. It takes a long ass time to make a game. This will be a new untested studio. Even if they start making good games it's going to be years from now.

  • Like king Leopold congo? Like where soldiers would only get more bullets if they could prove that the bullet they used killed a person?

  • Is it better to give misinformation or give none at all?

    Jump

  • Oh man I feel this when people ask for directions. Because I know how to get somewhere, but I also forget a lot of steps along the way.

  • Sounds like people ain't never been to the northeast kingdom.

  • What should i get my 10yo nephew that’s all into radical sports and anything physical for xmas?

    Jump

  • A slack line? Maybe over budget

    Stuff to build skate features, or wax for waxing curbs

    If he lives by snow, a park rake is super cool for building snow features. It like makes a perfect jump for you.

    G-form (knee)pads maybe lame, but by far the most comfortable protection I've ever worn.

    A knife, 10 year old me would spend hours widdling sticks, trying to make wooden swords and stuff

    3d printed nerf guns are amazing now. If you have access

    Do you think it's okay to not have an opinion on something?
