When most of us were young children, time seemed to pass more slowly and we often wished things would move faster. As we get older, time appears to speed up. Why does this happen? Can anyone explain this to me?

Not too long ago, I made a thread in the main ChatGPT subreddit asking how to improve my custom instructions. I’ve learned a lot since then, and it seems like GPT-5 generally favors short, staccato sentences with bullet points and lists. I’m pretty disappointed with this because I really liked paragraphs—they were easier to read and made it simpler to get my thoughts down. I know this is more of a feature than a bug, but I’m wondering if there’s a way to fix it. It seems like the only way to consistently get paragraph-style prompts is by subscribing to the Plus account, although I already did a free trial in the past.

There is something that I was wondering about these two gangsters. Particularly, how do they keep getting out of prison after Bugs catches them? Was there some kind of legal loophole that seemed to give them an advantage? I’m just really confused about this.

Can anyone give me some advice on how to improve customer instructions? I want to have detailed paragraphs instead of numbered lists, but I keep reverting back to that format. Here are the custom instructions in question.:

>Adopt an encouraging, insightful tone like a knowledgeable friend offering a nuanced perspective. Explore the topics being discussed from all angles. Use six-sentence paragraphs instead of bullet points except when giving examples. Be detailed in all of your responses. Use titles for each paragraph to make things more organized.

I removed the em dash from the instruction but do I also need to remove the hyphen I used as well?? Can anyone tell me what I did wrong?

My waist size is between 40 and 46, and I have a budget of $70. I’m currently looking for underwear—not just any kind, but ones that are great for staying cool and comfortable. I prefer buying from places like Amazon or Walmart since it’s easier for me, but I’m open to other stores if they offer a better price. What underwear is good for cooling and comfort, something that doesn’t chafe and can last through the summer?

Edit: For some clarification, I’m looking for a 6-pack of boxers. My waist size is 42, or Men’s XL.

I used to play this game as a child and had a great time with it, even though I never beat it., I’m replaying it as an adult but having some trouble with the bosses, especially with the notorious Mona & Lisa (also known as Onihime & Yasha) and Bongo. Needless to say, I need to practice, but I also want some tips and tricks that would make my experience with the game easier. Can anyone help me or give me advice on how to master the game’s mechanics?

I’m interested in hearing the community’s take on how much research Type-Moon invests in the historical and mythological roots of the Fate franchise. What are your thoughts their interpretation and adaptation of these characters and events?

Since my home AC is out for the foreseeable future until I can pay for an HVAC repairman, I’m wondering what portable ACs I could use to keep myself cool. I’m looking for something suitable for medium to large-sized rooms, especially living rooms, lofts, and even the bedroom. My budget isn’t very big right now, but I’m hoping to find something in the $200 to $400 range.

Up until a few years ago, my AC was working just fine and produced cold air. Nowadays when I start the AC, it will begin generating cold air but stop after a while. This isn’t the first time this has happened, as we had someone repair our conditioner unit before. Unfortunately, it stopped working again recently, and now it’s basically just running for peace of mind. We’ve had this air conditioner for a very long time and had to replace it once already. I’d much rather figure out what’s going on or decide if I should have a professional HVAC technician take a look at it. Can anyone help me figure out what’s going on?

Edit: The fan on the condenser unit turns on when the AC is running. There was a time when it didn’t move before we had our AC repaired the first time around. Also, the condenser unit is outside our house.

Up until yesterday, my Ring doorbell on the front door was working fine and always showed video footage. That all changed when I saw "Device Offline" on my feed. I’m not sure what’s going on but I wonder if I got disconnected from my Wi-Fi network. I can’t seem to reconnect it to Wi-Fi, and I’m at a loss for what to do. Can anyone help me?

Over the years, I’ve noticed that films in beloved franchises sometimes seem to overlook their expanded universe content. It might just be me but it feels like expanded universe media often gets overshadowed by the main films. I get that most people go to the theater to see the big-screen releases, not necessarily the expanded universe material they may or may not have explored. But do film franchises such as Predator, Star Wars, or Robocop tend to ignore their extended universe media?

About a decade ago, I watched the Kill la Kill series and ended up liking it despite not wanting to watch it at first. I remember discussing the series on internet chat forums and reading some anime YouTuber analyses about it. That said, I’ve since learned that there are certain things about the series that are flat-out wrong or have been debunked multiple times. What are some common misconceptions people have about this series? What is the truth and what is just fiction?
