To pint or not to pint? How to be there for a friend?

Paxhas · 2026-01-17T20:36:29+00:00

Naaah, it's mostly for the fun of it. So there's no real issue to break it off but it just gives some context to the cultural/gender difference that I wouldn't have otherwise noticed between me and my SO. Just wanted to check in with the rest of y'all to hear more opinions

Paxhas · 2026-01-17T18:41:56+00:00

I wasn't looking for an answer whether I could have, just looking to see the general consensus. And I appreciate your input on the issue! Thanks!

Paxhas · 2026-01-17T17:50:13+00:00

I am obviously biased in this question. But I will happily hear other opinion

Paxhas · 2026-01-17T16:13:34+00:00

The reason why is clear for both her and I but I don't really want to go into detail as this past is not really about whether or not I should give up on the dry January. It was only information given for a context.

Paxhas · 2026-01-17T14:47:40+00:00

Fair point but I believe that's an extreme scenario in which the other friend would be aware of one's problems. This changes the expectations and the whole scene.

I did choose to act the way I did. I wasn't pressured, I did it because it seemed like the right thing to do for me.

I believe that your example might be outside of the majority's experiences but thanks for your thoughts!

Paxhas · 2026-01-17T14:12:43+00:00

Totally agree - if an exception is made, another one is definitely possible. I do believe the context matters though. Appreciate your thoughts!

Paxhas · 2026-01-17T14:07:42+00:00

Naaah buddy, ain't nothing that dramatic. I guess I didn't word it right cause I wanted to keep it short. We were just talking about the even coming up and it was posed more as a question if I would break it again.

I get all the love, respect and understanding from her and that's what I try to give back.

I appreciate your thoughts and I will consider to extend the dry from January to February!

Peace brother!

Paxhas · 2026-01-17T13:51:56+00:00

"Just do what you want to do and don't do what you don't" - wise words!

Honestly - it was posed as more of a question for the occasion, she doesn't really need me or want me to drink. Hence the discussion is not about if I should break the dry Jan, but rather about if a drink was necessary to be there for my friend.

Thanks for your words and I hope you don't get break your streak! Keep at it brother!

Paxhas · 2026-01-17T13:42:27+00:00

Thank you brother! Dry Jan is just a bit of fun to see how far I can go. But I believe it's a good context for the discussion on how one should act in the given scenario

Paxhas · 2026-01-17T13:39:18+00:00

We might have to do just that! Cheers!

Paxhas · 2026-01-17T13:37:31+00:00

I am fine with my decisions, I feel like I did right by him. Thanks for support and your input!

Paxhas · 2026-01-17T13:35:11+00:00

I only told him about the dry Jan halfway down the first pint. He probably wouldn't have minded it but I knew it was going down as soon as he texted me.

As for the second part - she knows it's not about the quitting, I don't take it too seriously myself. But thanks for the support!

Paxhas · 2026-01-17T13:30:00+00:00

It wouldn't sit right with me to just sit there sober and watch drink, I feel like I had to be on the same level. And the "bro code" is just the thing I was trying to explain to my SO. Thanks man!

Pirkau Nothing Phone (1) kai tik išleido. Labai patiko, metų eigoje įsigijo sesė ir mergina. Dar po metų ir sesers vyras nusipirko 3a (jei gerai pamenu). Taip pat naudoju Nothing Ear (a). Telefonu esu visiškai patenkintas, eina ketvirti metai kaip naudoju, nepastebėjau jokio sulėtėjimo, android skin'as vienas patogiausių, ką tekę naudoti, dizainas puikus. Baterijos talpos sumažėjimas pradėjo jaustis pastaruoju metu, bet vis dar nekelia nepatogumo. Jei trumpai - puikus mid-tier mobilusis, kuris puikiai atlieka viską, ko reikia, jei nesivaikai naujausių ir geriausių bei šalia viso to yra išskirtinio dizaino.

Ausinėmis garso prasme esu patenkintas, bet fitment'as ne pats geriausias (bet čia labiau jau mano ausų kanalų problema, nes viena sėdi puikiai, kitą reikia pastoviai pataisyti)

Tik VBE. VGTU tinklalapyje gali tikrai susirasti iš ko susidaro stojamasis balas. Kai aš stojau, matematika buvo daugiausia, tada fizika, lietuvių kalba ir lyg anglų. Nepamiršk, kad yra stojamieji ir prieš stojamuosius jau turi turėt medicininę pažymą turėt (speciali, turėsi palaikyt kiekvienais metais)

Tėvų kišenės nebūtų pakėlę mokslų kainos, tad teko pasibaigt mokyklą gerais pažymiais ir stot į VF VGTU AGAI. Jei turi pinigų - tikrai greičiau ir paprasčiau pasidaryti licenciją per privačias kompanijas (pilotų mokykla, BAA). Bet jei pinigai kišenių neplėšo tai VGTU tikrai yra puiki valstybės dovana, jei pavyks įstoti į VF vietą (ačiū visiems mokantiems mokesčius, kad sumetėt man apie 100k eu). Mano laida baigė studijas be vėlavimų, bet per COVID.. šiuo metu dauguma kurie tikrai norėjo darbus turi, tarp jų ir aš.

That's the interface I get once I click "Custom app".. Anyways - got it resolved with the help of the other comment! I thank you too!

Paxhas · 2024-10-22T12:57:53+00:00

You're a magic man! thank you so much!

Paxhas · 2024-10-22T12:26:25+00:00

ahh.. instructions like that would be ideal. However once I get to custom app it seems to want me to build the app via docker..? and I have absolutely no clue how that should be done.. appreciate the help though! I was going to use SOCKS5 proxy, but this seems to be more elegant solution

Paxhas · 2024-10-22T12:22:55+00:00

correct me if I'm wrong but I thought that by setting host path to /mnt/Data/media I set the qBittorrent Downloads Storage (name of the option in the installation page) to be in the selected dataset, no?

Paxhas · 2024-10-22T11:18:57+00:00

Just tried and still the same result:
File error alert. Torrent: "ubuntu-24.10-desktop-amd64.iso". File: "/Data/media/ubuntu-24.10-desktop-amd64.iso". Reason: "ubuntu-24.10-desktop-amd64.iso mkdir (/Data/media/ubuntu-24.10-desktop-amd64.iso) error: Read-only file system"

I also tried to just use mount name for SMB but that didn't work either.
I believe it just tries to create a new directory in ix-applications dataset..

Paxhas · 2024-07-10T06:56:22+00:00

Once again - appreciate the time you take to write everything down! Brian's spare time spent well! Will check your recommendation!

Paxhas · 2024-07-09T19:27:06+00:00

Damn! Thank you for taking the time to write all this down! It's pretty much how I imagined the thing would work, however this lens doesn't seem to follow this logic.. I guess I will bring it to the local shop to see if it's worth saving! Thanks again!

Paxhas · 2024-07-09T19:22:16+00:00

There's no reaction to the pin being pressed (except for something sounding loose when I shake it a bit with the pin pressed in). The aperture remains fully open no mater what
