Divorces can get pretty ugly, especially when the reason is your looks, as happened to one Chinese woman, who had plastic surgery before her wedding, and was sued by her husband.

Jian Feng divorced and sued his "beautiful" wife for around ?75,000 and won, because she had deceived him into believing her good looks were all natural, when they had been fashioned from a surgeon's scalpel.

Feng told a court in China he had been deeply in love with his beautiful wife until they had a baby girl. Gazing into his baby daughter's eyes, Feng was repulsed. He described his child as horrifically ugly, with no resemblance to him or his wife. Feng immediately suspected his wife of having an affair, incredulous at the possibility that he could have spawned such an offspring. His wife was forced to confess that before her marriage, she had spent ?60,000 on plastic surgery in South Korea, and looked completely different to how she was born.

The judge agreed that Feng's wife had indeed deceived him into marriage under false pretences, and awarded him compensation.

It's a bizarre case but clearly she mislead him by not disclosing the surgery. This is more significant in China because couples are only allowed to have a single child and by concealing her genetic appearance she tricked him into having a child he did not want. A marriage should be based upon honesty and this could have all been prevented. However, the real victim here is not the father but the child.

Because it's all about looks, right?

/s

I hate people.

Actually, it's about genetics and deceit. He wasn't concerned about her appearance but for the appearance of their child.

...it's still apparently all about looks. I don't see your point.

Yes. It is. As it always has been. And anyone who argues otherwise is quite clearly misleading themselves into believing in a world where such things don't factor into it. It's a natural thing to let physical attraction play a major part in the selection of a mate, and following that through into the looks that your child will have.

LOL so i guess they're not allowed to diet and lose weight either...

Is being overweight genetic? No.

No, it's much more than that - it's about wanting what is best for your offspring. He found someone he considered attractive but who was genetically unattractive (in his opinion). His concern was not about himself but about his child, which he would not have chosen to have given prior knowledge of her surgery and her true appearance. That's because the child represents his genetic lineage. To me it would be no different to concealing a genetic disorder or the fact that you're related to the person in question - her aim was to trick him into having a child with her which he would not otherwise have had.

They don't matter to me. But, this is why I don't get on with most people--they're shallow, primitive animals.

A good great personality is a requirement for me. However if someone makes me want to vomit when I look at them, there will be a bit of a problem.

Wanting someone for with good looks is no less primitive or shallow than having sex for fun.

    • Dbrand thought they could get away with this Steam Machine case, Valve disagreed

      By PsYcHoKiLLa · Posted

      If Valve refused to let them make the case, I wonder if they've already partnered with someone else to do it? The fact that they didn't seek permission/licence before diving straight in is incredible though

    • OpenClaw now has native mobile apps on iOS and Android

      By Karthik Mudaliar · Posted

      OpenClaw now has native mobile apps on iOS and Android by Karthik Mudaliar OpenClaw, the viral open-source personal AI agent, now has its own mobile app, available on both Android and iOS. Users can pair the app with an existing OpenClaw gateway and can start using new mobile-native features that are now available on the app. The app supports all the existing features you'd already have seen on OpenClaw's TUI, as well as some more, such as real-time and background Talk mode, action approvals, sharing from iOS, and optional access to device capabilities such as camera, screen, location, photos, contacts, calendar, and reminders. These features are available on both the Android and iOS versions of the app. What's important with these apps is that they don't run OpenClaw on your phone, but are actually just companion apps that require a running OpenClaw Gateway on an existing device, on macOS, Linux, or Windows via WSL2. To pair the app with your existing OpenClaw gateway, users need to run the command "/pair qr" on the TUI or existing chat interface, which brings up a QR code. Users can then scan this QR code to pair it up with the mobile app. There's also an option to manually pair the app by entering the host and a port. Previously, OpenClaw had been available on phones via WhatsApp, Telegram, Slack, Discord, Microsoft Teams, Matrix, and others. Now, with a native mobile app, the interface is much cleaner and more focused on just the OpenClaw, of course, with the added support for camera, screen, location, and more. It's important to note that OpenClaw comes with its own security warnings. There's always a chance of prompt injection with these tools, so users are recommended to double-check authentication, tool policy, sandboxing, and execution approvals rather than prompts alone. For users well-versed with the AI harness, a native mobile app makes it easier to approve an automation, share a link, use voice, or let an agent react to phone-side context.
    • Google pitches Spanner as one database for all AI agents with these new featues

      By Karthik Mudaliar · Posted

      Google pitches Spanner as one database for all AI agents with these new featues by Karthik Mudaliar Google Cloud is introducing new features within Spanner, its distributed database, as a place where enterprises should keep their data, using which AI agents could make smarter and better decisions. In a detailed blog post, Google highlighted quite a few features coming to Spanner, including relational data, graph relationships, vector search, key-value access, full-text search, and operational analytics together in one database architecture. Google says that today's systems aren't well-made for AI agents. There could be data that is present in one system, search indexes in another, embeddings in a vector database, and relationship data in a graph database. This fragmentation isn't great for AI agents to do their jobs because they don't have access to all of this data in one place. This is where Google is positioning Spanner as a solution. Spanner is already a globally distributed relational database with strong consistency, and Google wants its customers to see it as a broader data layer for AI applications. The company introduced something called Spanner Graph, along with integrated vector search, full-text search, a Cassandra-compatible key-value endpoint, and a columnar engine for analytical queries on operational data. Google also added that its ScaNN-powered vector search can support indexes with more than 10 billion vectors, while the columnar engine can make some analytical scans up to 200 times faster. All of this isn't just exclusive to the Google Cloud Platform, and there's support for multi-cloud as well. This comes via Spanner Omni, which Google says is a downloadable, containerized version of Spanner that can run on Kubernetes and in environments outside Google Cloud, including Microsoft Azure and AWS, and even on-premises infrastructure as well as edge deployments. Google says that customers who are interested in the full-featured edition should contact the company, and there's no word on commercial availability or separate pricing. Those interested can read the full blog by Google Cloud, which details these features individually.
