| So what happened this weekend? Well, she told me today that someone that paid her for X amount of work wanted to cancel and wanted a refund for 2/3rds since she had only done 1/3rd. They paid ahead in full but decided to back out and wanted money back. She told me this - and then said she had a no ... |

| no girl will ever have a f-ing conversation with me. How and in what kinds of contexts have you gone about trying to have conversations? What are your interests/hobbies, if any? Also, in what general part of Iowa do you live? (Don't be specific enough to endanger your privacy.) Do you live near a m... |

| Also: maybe it can track you(?). Since it generates its answers from many different users', what if it stores/makes public your (programming) codes you think are only visible to you... There's a way to tell it not to do that. If you are using ChatGPT from a PC, click on the 3 dots next to your user... |
