Re: Chat GPT

I have used it in the past for styling suggestions - not with image generation - just text generation - and it was just OK - but that was GPT 3.5... I haven't used 5 for it yet. The results were less definitive - and there was no way to show it a picture and get feedback. Also, as Seb says, it's way...

Re: Hello from Maryland!

I know that many on this forum value the sort of femininity/flowy and graceful nature of a skirt, and while I also do, I lament the fact that because skirts are cut for the feminine figure, they accentuate areas of my body i'd rather ignore at times. Which is why I am looking for resources on skirt...

Re: Out and About -- In the World at Large

Spent part of the day downtown Ann Arbor, MI eating lunch with colleagues and discussing various work-related matters. As typical I was skirted. And as typical for the town, didn't get any strange looks that I noticed. Being the start of the semester and a genuinely nice summer/fall day campus was b...

Re: Clothing envy - does it dissipate?

Five years. Wow.

Unfortunately I don't have anything profound to say, other than yeah, after a number of years of wearing what I want, the envy has left.

Re: Slow Site

Today I've been seeing 6+ second load times for the initial page, and then any dynamically loaded asset (ie, file.php) taking just as long. If it's shared hosting there is generally little you can do... however... I'm assuming you have access to the hosting control panel - sometimes there are some t...

Slow Site

Has anyone noticed the site being slow? I haven't profiled it, but it feels like it takes at least +1s or longer.

Re: Do People Notice?

Of course this place is not clear view of the world. I think you said it right there about mumsnet. It's a collective of like-minded people - with the same or similar agenda - BUT not the whole world - and they have their opinions. It's highly unlikely you will be able to dissuade them from any of ...

Gonna have to look that one up, but this would also work equally well for androids of the "Alien" series.

Re: Causing Confusion

I was at whole foods returning assorted amazon stuff at the kiosk, when a male attendant behind the desk says loudly “I can help you with those sir”. At the same time he’s speaking, he is walking around to the front and says, “erm m’am”. Honestly, the poor bloke was confused. While I was wearing ear...

You should 3D print a space-inspired hair clip or something of that sort.

Social media idea

Instagram keeps feeding me "Skirt girlies" posts. These are usually video posts of young adult women skowing off wearing skirts/dresses in various scenarios. Often a little bit silly - but generally poking good natured fun at their quirky (in this day and age) style of only wearing skirts ...

Re: Out and About -- In the World at Large

I did see another male wearing a skirt (tiered boho maxi, each stripe a different fabric), but not sure how they identify and am not going to presume. But, there was a thin beard, so infer with what you will. One can still comment about liking the skirt without making any gender preference presumpt...

Re: Out and About -- In the World at Large

Was at Belle Isle, Detroit today with some friends. Wore a burnt orange skirt (Lee UTRA LUX COMFORT WITH FLEX-TO-GO SKORT), black t-shirt, and black sneakers, plus my egg bag. There happened to be a small art fair (100 vendors) and so we spent 2 hours perusing the stalls. Got three compliments on th...
