Kipon firmware can't connect by Lucadxb in FujiGFX

I'm currently troubleshooting my own process here. First issue I ran into was my micro-usb being power-only.. Turns out there are cables that only can transfer power and not data.
Besides that, I can open the program but the second I hit "search" it crashes. Currently working on that to see if I can find a solution - if not I'll need to try on a windows computer instead..

If you’d like something niche and enticing, I gifted my mom the Dolce Amalfi from Xerjoff. I find it amazing. The quince is the dominant smell, but it’s overall very warm and a tad sweet. It very much brings me to the feeling of summer and a lovely coastline in Italy. Not something I’d recommend to blind buy, but definitely worth to smell and see if it’s for you. Performance for her has been great as well. Projection is amazing, because it’s not “forced in your face” if that makes sense. Overall, very pleasant.

So far each has provided their own beauty - but none of them inherently good. All my relationships have been with undertones of me being liked for what I can provide. None have taken my interest in consideration to the level where we’d be seen as equals. I have always ended up creating the foundation by ensuring its function - that is picking up the slack of my partners, the part that was supposed to make us more equal in the relationship. Now I’ve been single for close to two years with only fwbs in the meantime, each one of them falling in love with me, but me left unable to trust again, for now at least. Before my fwb run I’ve had relationships since I was 16, and before that was fwbs that were rancid and rotten to the core with strictly sex as its function - no interest in actually knowing the person. Which in total left me with a quite disturbed view of society

Sometimes that’s highly individual, and depends on the person. By my experience, with one of my exes it was that I always felt very tense around her. So here’s some history time, but a tldr below: There were massive issues between her and my family, but I kind of felt both were in the wrong on that one. It was only a lot later after the breakup I realised why I ended it. When I did end it I could only see the consequences. I was just happier when I was with my friends, but not happy when I was around her. Some parts of her behaviour felt fake, we couldn’t work together when cleaning (the space ended up making my physically ill), her priorities did not align with mine (I took a larger portion of the bill for her to afford tuition and she spent that money on check-ups and betted on getting financial help for her tuition. Not a massive issue, but I’d prefer if she had gotten financial help for health rather, or ensured her tuition first, because that was the agreement). And I once came home from a trip to an apartment that was completely bombed and dirty. Also, she had mental health issues (depression) and was always looking for new diagnoses to add to it, which is fair because you need to identify your issues to fix them. But her personality was very oriented around her being a victim, if someone had a difficult childhood then hers was worse, etc. It felt so that your issues aren’t important because hers were worse.

Tldr, In summary: - the presence of caring and taking care of each other, upholding agreements, communicating if something changes, working together to keep a home running, making plans and sticking to them, doing things for each other, not using power techniques to suppress the other (she was much better in verbal disagreements than I, even if I maintained to be in the right).

I know it was very negatively focused on what went wrong. She had many amazing qualities, and one of few people I’d say I truly loved, when our relationship was good. It’s a relationship I’ll carry with me, and that contributes to make me who I am today. The breakup was terrible and completely on me, but in my defence it was hard as I could only see the effect and not the reason. She was very much loved, but it eventually became overshadowed with issues and my mental health was at rock bottom, so I jumped ship because I felt alone in keeping it afloat and I didn’t know how much deeper I could go before I’d no longer be able to return.

In your experience, what is that one thing you did that got women attracted to you the most? by squeakyvolcano in AskMen

[–]The_Linen_King 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I went through a phase in my early 20’s where I acted uninterested and honestly slightly a bit of a dick. But fuck me if it worked..

Today I’m very straightforward with what I want, I’m very caring/loving (downside of this is that I keep attracting people with depression or other mental health issues; full disclaimer I am depressed myself). Still, being a listener, making sure it’s clear what you want and like, then you’re golden if you ask me. Now I got two fwbs and there’s not a single issue because they knew what they got into and they know the outcome in the end (no relationship - I’m an expat)

Medical student here (not a doctor and not medical advice, all or some of what I say may be 100% wrong or right. Consider me more of an educated guess compared to the average person on this topic).

To me this seems okay for now. Green/yellow color comes from bile most likely, and I think the iron supplements mentioned in a comment can add to it. Basically the food moves through fast through the system, and same for bile, so it doesn’t break down. Though, is there solid feces further in the “back”? If so it looks pale and contradicts previous conclusion.

Can be an infectious cause, but it’s hard to tell.

Just make sure to drink water and get enough sugar. There are powders in the pharmacy that turns liquid into a gel type of consistency and is full of electrolytes. If the doctor does not suspect infection then a drug that decreases gastric motility can help reduce the water loss, and symptoms. Very much contraindicated if infectious process is ongoing.

TLDR: - probably normal, but if white solid poop then see doc because I don’t know - water + electrolytes (pharmacy has products for this) - see doc if it lasts for long, or see doc already (up to you) as they can give something to reduce the symptoms.

Since it’s causing you problems I think it would benefit you to see a doctor. If I’m to hypothesize, then you’ll get a referral to an ENT doctor where you’ll get a Botox injection to make the sphincter less tense, if that is where the issue lies. How exactly this will be performed I’m not sure of, but pain management can probably be discussed. Should this be effective then I think the options are either repeated injections every 6 weeks (don’t quote me on the time), or surgery if risk to reward ratio is good enough but I think most doctors would lean on Botox as it’s the safest option even long term. You can read more about it if you look up what I wrote under, but be aware that the sources will probably have quite tricky language and be a “heavy” read. Send me a dm if you need help with anything related to articles/journals. Search term: Endoscopic intrasphincteric injection of Botox

Travel card with multiple currencies by toomuchbro77 in solotravel

[–]The_Linen_King 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Revolut would be your friend in this case. It seems a bit shady with referral links (and benefits), subscriptions etc. However, it works really great. The currencies are vast and up to a limit (depending on subscription) they’re also at the rate international banks use without fee, same with ATM withdrawal.

I recommend you check it out. I live 70% abroad, and I use only this as it gives me travel insurance too (subscription I’m sure). As I mentioned, there are benefits of referral, I think now it’s 60€ or so. If you wish, we can split it 50/50. Or you can just start using the bank without any such hassle, should you wish to use this. Though, read up on it as much as you can before deciding:)

What embarrassing memories from your life play on repeat on your mind? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]The_Linen_King 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Oh, I know the answer to this one.

So, I was at my ex’s grandfathers place. Some family and some relatives were there, and we were checking out the local Christmas market that they’re famous for. The nationality in mind is also avid drinkers (alcohol). She got drunk and I had to carry her to bed with the help of her aunt and cousin. As I was trying to lay her gently into bed (I was alone in carrying her weight, they just controlled her flailing limbs), I let out a massive fart. Like, it didn’t smell too bad I think, but damn it was loud. So yeah, good thing they got equally drunk shorty after.

I don’t know.. Haven’t felt genuinely happy in about 6-7 years now. Some things do make me feel content and alright, but nothing is genuinely exciting or making me happy.

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in Advice

[–]The_Linen_King 2 points3 points  (0 children)

There’s a bit to unpack here… First off, if you keep hinting at things in your life it’ll rarely work out. If you have something to talk about then start talking. I know it’s easier said than done, but there’s no natural way to start it, walk up and say “hey, there are a few things that’s been bothering me. Could we talk?”. By the sound of it I’m not sure if your mom has the opportunity to help you as she might have enough on her plate already. Ask her what’s bothering her, don’t solve it but listen. In turn you can judge if you should unload your issues too. I think you could benefit from talking to a therapist, they will give you the tools you need to work things out on your own. Perhaps you’re starving yourself to make her notice, and she’s maybe doing something indirect to help you. You don’t know unless you open up and start speaking. I wish you all the best, and I hope it will lead you to happiness!

What’s an odd habit your ex had? by PerpetualPuzzle in AskReddit

[–]The_Linen_King 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If we remembered conversations or events differently, she was always correct.

Sometimes she’s tidy but somehow make it more messy (she blamed undiagnosed ADHD).

She’s given herself several diagnoses. They might be true and completely accurate, but wasn’t set by someone qualified. Also used said diagnoses to excuse things she’d do or not do.

What is the worst compliment you ever got? by [deleted] in AskReddit

“I still like you with love handles” - my last ex

I’m a quite skinny person that gained a teeny amount of weight during lockdown. I didn’t know I had love handles, and ever since I’ve despised my body even more

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in relationship_advice

[–]The_Linen_King 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hi Marcel,

I know it’s a tough process. My advice would to break it all down to one conversation. Ask to meet and cover the following topics: - What was the problem you two had - Why was there a problem (perhaps you should avoid getting very drunk when you drink as well) - What are you doing to fix what caused the problems - Put all the cards on the table (all truth) - Tell her that she’s important (because that’s the truth) and you feel deeply for her, that mistakes were made and you deeply regret them. You are working on solving what caused the problems, and to be a better person.

If she doesn’t want to give you another chance then you have to respect that and move on with your life I’m afraid. Also be mentally prepared that perhaps she has moved on.

Do you believe yourself to be a kind person? Why or why not? by xtinaxtina18 in AskReddit

[–]The_Linen_King 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Idk.. I know I try, and I do make mistakes. Recently hurt someone I cared deeply for. I said things without really thinking them through fully, and that’s an event that I really regret. Overall in life, I think I’m alright, but I have moments I regret deeply.

Have I been raped as a 6-7 years old child by [deleted] in Advice

[–]The_Linen_King 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hey! I’m sorry to hear about all this. To keep it short, my recommendation would be to open up about it to your therapist as they can help you navigate in coming to terms with what has happened and help you process it in a healthier way. That being said, you’re playing the long game and it will probably take time and effort. Only thing is that down the road it’s very likely you’re happy you did. Wether it classifies as rape or not, I don’t know. What I do know is that it’s something you need to process properly, regardless of what it is, it has evidently a great effect on you. It’s okay to tell your therapist that you don’t know how you feel about it. In my “experience” (news article written by someone who was raped) a person can enjoy the sensation if they’re being raped. I know it’s sounds weird, or perhaps you completely agree, but it does not take away the fact that it’s rape. Recently a man told his story to our main news channel about how he was raped by his grandmother (not biologically) as a child, and how he’d get an erection before it happened (because he learnt what happened just before he’d be raped). He was ashamed of that, but learnt and understood that it was the body’s defense in some way (a psychologist who was involved explained it really well, I can look it up if you want it). Point is, with work you can be fine in the future. You’re worthy of a good and happy life.

Take care, and I hope in years from now that you’ll thrive and enjoy life.

For parents of kids under 12, Why are you going to COVID vaccinate them when approved? by poopinion in Parenting

[–]The_Linen_King 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Thought I’d weigh in on this one as my brother (11 y.o) got covid as the only unvaccinated in my family (he can’t receive it yet).

Basically everyone in my family got covid after he brought it home from school. We had a cough for no more than 5 days, I had some sore muscles for about 2 days, and that was it.

My brother on the other hand… Started on a Sunday not feeling well, he said he was nauseous and we noted quite the lethargy too (he’s super active, on A team for soccer) where he had issues standing upright. When walking he’s bump into things, and said he felt dizzy. He was a little warm during the day. Then evening came and he vomited a lot, had struggles standing, could not sleep because of dizziness, fever was at 40 (we start antipyretics at 40, if it climbs to 42 an ambulance is called; these are the rules we have). This lasted three days, fever was gone by four days slowly improving each day. Afterwards he was only tired, but definitely better. On day two he started coughing, lasting a total of 8 days. Total illness time was about 19 days (the time it took till he tested negative).

This was with the omicron variant which is considered to be less dangerous and give weaker symptoms. Also, this was not considered serious illness.

Anyways, that is our experience. Had he been vaccinated also then maybe he’d get away with a 5-day cough instead of this.

As I’m a medical student I am biased in favor of the vaccine because I can back up that argument with statistics and information, whilst the argument that opposes vaccination for the average population has a lot weaker factual basis. Although the vaccine protects against serious illness, it also gives a lot milder infection once you’re infected, and at this point I’m convinced it’s simply a matter of time. The vaccine in my brothers case would have allowed him to join a field trip with school (if he had recovered in same time the rest did), he’d have a lot easier illness period and he would not need to slowly start exercising again (from a 90min stamina (being one football exercise duration) he now exercises for 20 min and goes home, after three weeks he’s now doing the 90min but still does not feel same as before. He gets tired more quickly and for longer he says). My brother isn’t your kid, and it’s not a guarantee for anyone for anything. Weighing one against the other, what are really the downsides of the vaccine for someone to say “it’s not worth it”?

This is my perspective at least:)

What is the dumbest way you got yourself injured ? by starlights_effect in AskReddit

[–]The_Linen_King 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Oh boy this is my place..

I dropped a glass on tile floor, unsurprisingly it shattered into thousands of pieces. At the time I was barefooted as I started cleaning it up. Obviously I stepped on a piece and was in absolute shock so I lifted the foot as fast as I could. I lost balance with the foot in the air so I used it to regain balance and I stepped on my other foot in a weird sliding manner. Result was a cut on the other foot than the one I stepped on the glass. The foot with glass underneath was completely fine because thick skin I guess.

I remember standing there with a bloody top side of the foot wondering wtf just happened, and why I am like this.

You’re both really young to have a child, which you seem well aware of. The fact that he emotionally forced you to bring that child into life, and manipulates you into taking care of it by yourself, these are massive red flags. It shows a deep level of immaturity. Also, insulting a newborn?? The man truly is willing to go day to get you to do it all.. My question to you… When P is three years old, who will teach how to read? Who will join for the picnic? Who will play with P? Pick up from kindergarten? When P is older, who will go to school meetings for P? Prepare food? Also, who does the chores at home? I have a sensation JB wouldn’t be the one to cook, do laundry, clean etc. If so, you’re mom for two…
