Well, I call mine by her name. But also she has two entries in my Contact list.

One that I created when we met many years ago.

And another one for the secondary number/phone she got secretly, before she was diagnosed with mental health issues and started taking the appropriate medications.

I won’t give out the exact details of the alias she created for her crazy secret life… But here’s the photo I used for that Contact entry.

This ironically became her primary Contact entry, as her other phone was older and the newer one was never actually a secret anyway, she just didn’t know I knew about it, and she didn’t need two phone’s after she got her shit sorted out.

But I’ve left that as her contact picture to ensure I don’t ever forget who she could turn back into if she stopped taking her meds regularly.

Ear cut also looks off. It creates a flappy little piece. But that would usually tear off quickly. A cut toward the center, like a slice of pie, but smaller, would look more realistic.

It’s not really going up…

I got bored with it last year, and have turned off everything but search summaries, as they often just put the answer right up front, no click throughs. Also I use a voice aid to set timers, reminders, and alarms…

And this seems to be a common story lately.

I can’t see AI really exploding beyond basic uses like that. Some people are still inovating and playing with AI, but it’ll settle down.

Was looking at NVMEs, only $1500 for a small no name Gen 3 with 3gbps max transfer rate.

Some newer and faster name brand drives were listed as $400-500, but they were also out of stock, so those prices probably weren’t accurate.

Isn’t there also a psychological profile that desires and pursues a specific outcome, which generally requires and rewards everyone equally for being an intentional cog?

Just like educational programs and cheating on school tests are things and cheating is moderated by social rules against it, social media has benefits, and there are visual rules we must define and utilize to moderate it.

Post engaging factual content and responses. Not for profit, but for the benefit of the community.

And upvote as much posted by others.

Downvote low quality, misleading, manipulative, commercial, or factually incorrect posts and responses.

And, block or ban repeat offenders or commercial accounts.

These things, like parenting styles, translate to good authoritative leadership practices in business and politics too. Accommodate biological and psychological needs, engage and encourage participation, provide healthy rewards (real meal sharing gatherings or event tickets, not candy and pizza), …

Only I’m not a boomer dumbass, and I am right.

Check your facts, and stop trying to dismiss other people’s statements out of hand just because you think they’re a certain age.

Logical fallacy much?

Note: I’m not responding to OP directly, but instead to everyone who’s ever called me a fucking boomer!

I heard a rumor once that something called ‘greed’ was considered a sin.

There might be others that are relevant too.

These ‘sins’ and their opposing ‘virtures’ where considered such because of how they effected the communities influenced by them.

Examples please.
