How are we dealing with AI-generated emails?
I’ve been getting more and more emails clearly generated by AI because the client fed the documents I sent them into ChatGPT or whatever and told it to ask questions about it.
On principle, I really don’t want to be putting the effort into responding to questions that the client isn’t actually asking. But on the other hand, on the face of it they are asking the question, even if they don’t know what they’re asking or why.
I’m sometimes tempted to just get ChatGPT to respond but there are so many reasons why that’s a bad idea.
We’re all already overworked. Now we’re expected to answer long-winded questions that often don’t make sense for people who won’t read the answer anyway 😖
I just took my first T shot then had a fit
I injected 50mg which is the starting dose, I started feeling faint almost immediately then next thing I know I’m on the floor having a seizure. I’ve never fainted or had a seizure before.
Has this happened to anyone else? I think my body might have metabolised the T way too quickly and the hormone fluctuation caused it.
I’m feeling mostly okay now after an hour and a half, mostly shook up. I’m still going to the hospital as I fell on the floor and cut my lip pretty bad, the paramedic reckons I’ll need stitches.
Edit: Update. Currently at hospital. BP was extremely low and is now normal again. Awaiting blood, urine and CT test results. Long term issue is probably going to be more the injuries I sustained when I fell.
Edit 2: Doctor said tests all fine. They can’t be sure if it was a seizure or a fainting spell but my BP is back to normal so discharged me. I have a massive gash on my inner bottom lip and a bruise on my nose from where I fell and my glasses are broken.
I know it was probably a syncope and not caused by the T (esp as gel has been fine for me) but I might stay on gel for a little longer after this.
The lesson here is, take your T shot somewhere you can comfortably fall 👍🏻
Got some free erectile dysfunction pills with my T?!
What do I even do with these lmao 🤣
Do points prices ever go down?
I’m looking to fly from Birmingham to Chicago at the end of January but my budget is tight so I’m hoping to pay with points I’ve accumulated over the years. I currently have about 19,800 and the flights are showing as 24,000. I know I can buy 5,000 points for £90 but that takes the total cost to only about £50 less than just paying outright. Do the prices for paying in points go down closer to the time of a flight or are they set in stone?
I’m 31 and my Railcard just ran out
I’m single, I don’t live in the south east and apparently my 4 diagnosed disabilities aren’t disabling enough so that means I can afford to pay £80 to go to London and back apparently 😐
Cassette collection slowly growing :)
I got these all this year for some bargain prices on Vinted 😍
Evermore - £3
Speak Now TV - £5
Midnights - £8
TTPD - £7
TLOAS - £10
It’s annoying having to filter out all the bootleg ones that get listed but these are definitely all official.
TTPD was originally listed for £17, I offered £12, she counteroffered £15. I was thinking about it, then a few hours later saw she’d deleted and relisted it for £7 with a crack in the case 😂 feel bad for her but bargain for me, I don’t mind that the case is cracked
Evermore was extremely lucky timing, I happened to open Vinted about 2 minutes after she listed it and it was on my front page so I dropped what I was doing and bought it immediately
I overheard someone correct someone else about my name and it felt so affirming 🥹
The keycard for my flat wasn’t working so I went to building management and was waiting outside their office and heard this:
A: “[Dead name]’s having trouble with her keycard.”
B: “It’s Toby now.”
A: “Sorry, Toby’s having trouble with his keycard.”
It’s such a small thing but it means so much that B bothered to correct A and that A’s immediate reaction was to correct herself ❤️
What time should I arrive at the airport for a flight from Birmingham - Dublin?
My rule has always been 3 hours ahead of departure for an international flight, 2 hours for a domestic flight in the US.
UK - Ireland though I feel is a bit of a grey area since yes it’s an international flight but we have a travel agreement, I don’t think I even need to show my passport (British citizen).
Would 2 hours be enough time?
Travelling to Ireland with T
I have T gel, which is legal to own in the UK for personal use. In a few weeks, I’ll be travelling to Ireland for five days (Mon-Fri), and a quick Google tells me possession of T without a prescription is blanket illegal. However I’ve travelled abroad many times in the past with prescription medication and never been asked to prove the prescription, but those have always been pills, not gel.
If I travel with gel in my bag, is it likely to be picked up through airport security?
What’s the worst possible result if I was caught in possession?
What would be the effect on my body if I left it at home and didn’t use any gel for 5 days?
Changing your driving licence really is that easy?!
Changed my name by deed poll. Sent off a D1 to change my name and title. Got my new licence back with name and title changed, AND gender marker changed? All for free? Suspiciously easy 🤨
Any lawyers here?
Hello, hoping to get some advice from fellow autistic lawyers (specifically UK conveyancing lawyers if there are any here)
I’m a solo conveyancing fee earner (ie no assistant) and lately I’m having trouble with an agent complaining that I’m rude when I’m just autistic. I’ve even had my NT manager look at my emails and he agreed that I’m not rude, just direct. Most agents actually like this about me because they can just get the update they need from me and carry on with their also heavy workload.
I’m past that point in my life where I try to mask to please people, especially people that aren’t worth the energy. My attitude is that the people who are worth the energy of masking don’t need it because they love me as I am.
But I do need to keep this agent happy. He gives me a lot of work and the plan is for me to co-run an office next year so I need the bosses to think I’m good with agents, and I can see this guy ruining it for me. He’s the type of NT who’s very sensitive and will complain to my boss that I was rude because I didn’t ask him how his dog is or something, but will be nice to my face and give me no reason to think he’s got a problem with me.
TLDR. Does anyone here have experience with this sort of problem and have suggestions for reasonable adjustments I can ask for to make dealing with people like this easier?
Arts at Marble Arch
First of all, temporary structure or no, who the hell designed a theatre on this spot with no soundproofing whatsoever?
Second of all, who the hell gave a permit to hundreds of people in green shirts to hold some sort of rally right outside the theatre during today’s matinee so that between songs you can hear everything going on outside?!
The show was amazing and kudos to the actors for continuing with all that noise in the background but I’m genuinely considering asking for a partial refund because that is NOT what any of us paid for.
What’s the second best AC game?
Obviously Odyssey is the best one, but after 7-8 months of it I think it’s time to try a new AC game.
I have them all on Steam after buying them in the winter sale last year. I tried Valhalla but didn’t like the controls. I love open world games but from what I hear Odyssey is unique in being an open world AC game?
Would love some suggestions on which one to play next!
Will someone please ELI5 what the triple lock is and why it’s good for pensioners and bad for everyone else?
reddit.comNolan’s Odyssey
Saw the Odyssey today. As a fan of the poem, the musical, Percy Jackson and this game, I loved it.
I did however realise I maybe play this game too much. My brain thought I was playing and kept telling me to hit certain key combos. Especially when the Greeks snuck out of the horse and started assassinating the guards, my first thought was “rush assassinate them and get them both in one go” 😂
day 3 of T and I’m SO hungry!!
Oh my goddddddd I could eat a whole McDonalds store of fries and burgers right now
