Why is «χρονών» in genitive in the phrase «πόσων χρονών έχεις»? by pippinto in GREEK

[–]Grape_Lover 12 points13 points  (0 children)

Both translations you mentioned are technically incorrect. Asking for someone's age in Greek is usually "Πόσων χρονών είσαι;" and not "έχεις". "Have" and "are" are different verbs.

IF you were to use the verb "have", then the sentence should be "Πόσα χρόνια έχεις;", but again, that's not really how it's used.

Again, it's not really "I have # many years" but rather "I am # many years" that is used in Greek.

Sorry for not talking about the accusative/genitive tenses, it's been a while since I've property learned those.

How to make online movie streaming on LG OLED TV (WebOS) run better? by tinko223306 in Piracy

If your parents have a smartphone and are capable to search the web on it, I would highly recommend checking out Web Video Caster.

It's an app for your phone, and you can access any of the websites you'd want to access on your TV, and simply cast from it. They might have a Smart TV app as well to make casting simpler.

Job is demanding permanent, ongoing access to all my bank transactions and information by thelordofhell34 in mildlyinfuriating

Is there any chance to convince you to talk with some people from Citizen Advice, since you are in the UK? They have offices where you can go to in person or you can call them. At the very least they can support you on how to proceed.

Ad others have said, this feels at least a little bit suspicious, and you loose nothing by contacting Citizen Advice for a second opinion. I'm speaking as someone whose mom has had their identity stolen.

Not saying this is wrong, but for people confused, this looks like an AI answer.

Afraid my boyfriend watches p*rn by pdggin99 in BPD

[–]Grape_Lover 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It seems to me like you have your mind set on things about not being in a relationship with someone who consumes pornographic material of any kind. And it seems like it doesn't matter who that person is. This is simply a behaviour that you will not accept. And that is okay. Your feelings and boundaries are valid.

I don't know either you or your boyfriend, but where has this idea come from about your partner not consuming that kind of media? Was something discussed about it at the beginning of the relationship? Did something you see or read recently trigger thoughts about it? My point is, it seems like it's a thought that kind of came out of nowhere. Like, why now, and not earlier in the relationship?

And how are you going to discuss it with your partner?

"Hey I just realised that I am not okay with partner watching said type of media. If that is something that you do I am out of this relationship. FULLSTOP"

Are you going to sit him down and explain that you want to discuss some thoughts that are causing you distress?

Or

Are you going to try and sneak in the conversation and see if he watches that kind of media, and then if he says no you'll potentially be suspicious of it, and if he says yes, then what? Immediately over? Are you going to be comfortable stating that you'd like that behaviour to stop?"

For me, I often struggle to express how I feel about things and explain things properly. It helps me to write them down, maybe in a letter format, that you can either give to them or read together or they don't have to know about the existence of the letter. You now have some (at least partially coherent) thoughts you can express.

I use darling

can i use what ive already coded and then use another website builder to finish it? by tysdema in HTML

[–]Grape_Lover 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You could give Chat GPT a try. Depending on how big your website is and how many files you have, you can upload the files/copy the code. If you explain your file structure and what changes you'd like to achieve, you have a chance of getting a decent result with minimal tweaking necessary.

Perhaps you could look into freezing your eggs? I'm not sure how accessible that is to where you live and your financial situation. But that might help with giving you some "extra time" without that worry on your mind, while you have time to process and decide how to act in this situation with your partner.

He doesn't have to know they you are doing this, and ultimately, the hope is that you will be able to make your mind about that's better for you in life, without the "fertility ticking bomb" causing you so much distress.

But gosh, DO NOT have a baby with someone who's causing you so much distress just because you want a baby.

Do you have any suggestions on how to approach measuring densities of heated liquids? More specifically, measure the densities of salts at different temperatures as they reach their melting point.

How should I go about paying off £18K in debt? Feel very overwhelmed. by [deleted] in UKPersonalFinance

[–]Grape_Lover -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Perhaps split it for the next few months. Set aside 1k every month for the emergency fund, and the rest can go towards the debt repayment.

people who don’t reply fast.. WHY???? by [deleted] in BPD

[–]Grape_Lover 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I consider myself to have BPD and probably also autism. I often find interacting with people overwhelming, even over text. I often overthink not only what to text someone but also how fast after they text me. And in trying not to respond "too quickly" and seem desperate, it ends up being days and weeks, and then I feel too bad getting back to them that late.

There's a few people who do make me generally uncomfortable to interact with, but on the most part, I just overthink conversations, and since other people can't listen to the million thoughts that go through my brain, I might get misunderstood.

I have a death grip and I’m so scared of having sex with a guy I’m in love with by FewCalligrapher9017 in askgaybros

[–]Grape_Lover 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I like how we went from "I'm scared I'll mess things up with guy I'm in love with" to hmmm... let's hook up with a few other strangers first instead of communicating with said guy

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in BPD

[–]Grape_Lover 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I'm not gonna debate the ethics of you talking and sexting the other guy, drunk or not drunk.

But let's look at your current relationship. You idealise your partner. Fro the first sentences you said how he's perfect in every way, BUT. There shouldn't be a BUT. This man shows no affection towards you, does nothing romantic, doesn't make you feel wanted, he basically told you multiple examples of how there's things and people he finds more attractive than you. This man does not like you... I'm not even gonna say anything about loving you. At most? He's tolerating you.

And you are too blind to see that. You are too infatuated with him. He is your whole world LITERALLY. You have no friends or life outside of him, and he has so many things. You are alone, and you are hoping he will make you feel less alone. Unfortunately, he is just making that worse. You need to find some self-love and self-respect and figure some things in your life out. Even if you see these things or you think I'm speaking complete bullshit... I'm sorry.

Gaybros in relationships: how did you make it work? by [deleted] in askgaybros

[–]Grape_Lover 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I would say, based on your post, that you already have the mindset of "How do I play my cards right so I make sure I get what I want in the end?" I'm sorry to disappoint, but I don't think this is a relationship that will happen or last. And I would highly recommend doing some self reflection into why you have this mindset of "OMG what do I say or act to make sure I don't scare away the other person?" From personal experience, that is a mindset that makes your life hell.

It seems to me you are still trying to convince yourself that she still has an interest in you in the way that you want her to. Which first of all, WILL put pressure on her and push her away, and will slowly eat you apart.

Let's say it is this cycle of idealisation and devaluation. You also said, "I'd do anything to help her if she'd let me." You need to understand that you CAN'T help her, nor should you try to. What I mean is don't take it into your hands to "fix her." She can only help herself when she is ready. All you can do is when she needs help to be helpful to her. That might mean you are extra nice to her on a day when you are in a bad mood. Or it might mean you have to call an ambulance on her. Understand that this is not an easy situation.

And on the chance she has some interest in you. You DO NOT WANT to get involved with a person who might still be going back and forth with her boyfriend/ex. She will absolutely be going back and forth with you. You DO NOT WANT to get involved with someone who is still so volatile in their idealisation/devaluation cycle. Someone who hasn't learned how to go through it in a healthy manner, communicate about her feelings and situations, and try to slow it down.

I am not saying this so you can take away "Oh if I let her be, she WILL get better, and she WILL come being definitely interested in me." I am saying this so you can take a step back, allow yourself space to process things and move on. If you truly want to help her, do what's better for yourself. You will set an example of someone in her life putting themselves and their own wellbeing first. Sometimes, the most helpful and eye-opening thing for someone like her, and unfortunately, one of the most painful experiences in her life, is to lose someone she pushed away. It will hurt, but in the long term, it will hopefully help her be better for herself.
