Read the title of the post 🙄
I do not claim to know what “most people” think and I don’t believe that you have that knowledge either. If you would like to challenge that belief please come with receipts this time, instead of making broad generalizing statements that may seem true to you, when clearly you are biased (not that I’m not, but that’s why I’m not saying shit about what “most people” think).
I agree that you should not be pretending or feigning interest. You should be trying to genuinely find areas of common interest.
How is that at all compatible with the original advice given, which in your own words is the “absolute basics” of approaching and talking to strangers? This is bad advice in my mind and you haven’t said anything to the contrary that is convincing.
Also I would not take your advice on how to talk to people because you’re coming off super patronizing to me.
Let’s say I walk straight up to them and say “I saw you and you sparked my interest, and I’d like to get to know you better.”
Except that’s not what we’re talking about, this piece of advice specifically advises that you hide your intentions.
OK, well what comes next? How do you get to know someone (total stranger) better? It’s going to involve talking about random stuff until (hopefully) you both end up feeling comfortable with each other.
I don’t know about you but I don’t talk about “random stuff”, I talk about things that are important to me and that I actually want to talk about, because that will actually tell me if i feel comfortable with someone and I want to get to know them better.
The other thing is about that first part (“I saw you/wanna get to know you”) is heavily implied by you walking over and saying hello.
Actually it’s not, because in the situation we’re actually talking about you’re approaching a group of people and pretending to be interested in what they’re talking about until you get “an in” with the person you’re actually interested in. That’s lying.
I believe in direct communication, as opposed to playing games. Maybe that’s why I don’t go to a lot of parties or bars etc. it’s hard to talk when there’s so much going on. I have a lot of sensitivity to sensory overwhelm so that doesn’t help. I don’t believe in “small talk” as you’re using it here, I.e. to mean talking for the sake of talking and not about what you actually want to talk about. You’re right that it’s low stakes but it’s basically a mini lie, and I also value vulnerability and emotional honesty very highly.
Maybe for you, but I don’t appreciate when people lead me on like that, especially intentionally.
That’s not the database they mean I fear :(
Eh this feels manipulative and they might notice that. Feels like pick-up artist shit because you arent actually interested in the conversation or the other people and you’re just faking it because your already established intention is to talk to one person specifically, for romantic/sexual reasons
“Every time I have a problem, I just throw a Molotov cocktail, and then I have a different problem!”
How does that work?
Well if you love technicalities you should’ve realized that people who didn’t vote at all for any reason also didn’t vote for this. Technically.
I don’t know, i was thinking about it and it seems like they would love it if we would just unplug like that, because then we couldn’t reach the majority of people because they’re only using those platforms. I fucking hate psyop bullshit for making me have to question every single fucking thought like that.
Reread the comment you responded to. Doesn’t mention anything about that. “Murder” is arguable anyways, not every killing is a murder.
You don’t need teeth to eat ass.
What a horrible thing to say
Thank you for reminding me to watch this
Thank you, that answers my question exactly.
So if I download this and somehow there is no longer a way to access the model online this will still work? I’m just a bit confused because I read a couple things that made it seem like even though the model is running locally it still needs a connection for some reason, if that isn’t true I’m sorry for the dumb question.
That number is way too low.
Assmilk? (SFW, visually anyways)
