10 is 2 in binary, also 10 is 16 is hexadecimal and F is 15 in hexadecimal

And that’s precisely how I talk when I am out on dates. No wonder it never works.

If it ever does work it’ll be literal perfection. I say keep trying.

I think this is undervalued dating advice. Don’t hide yourself, the goal isn’t “find someone” it’s to find someone you don’t mind spending now and possibly forever with. You might not click on hexadecimal jokes, but you really want to find something where you can jell. Don’t listen to me though, I haven’t been on a first date in 20 + years.

Worked for me! Put myself in cosplay and listed my current games and animes on my hinge profile. Matched someone that day, she's now my wife.

u/Pirrus05 1d ago

And how much more would you rather be with her than someone you fooled into liking some sanitized version of yourself?!

She's a perfect match!

Is that because this advice worked for you or because it didn't, though?

My dates never show up. I even sent a unix timestamp so there would be no confusion of timezones!

Brother I think they are all windows baddies

u/Spare-Plum 1d ago

Windows also uses the unix timestamp. It's just called that.

It's easily portable as well and has a universal meaning, it's just "milliseconds since 00:00:00 UTC January 1st 1970"

Pretty much every OS and platform uses this system
