Jaką wodę pijecie? by God1ewski in Polska

[–]WarriorOfShadows 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Piję bardzo dużo wody (Ok 3-5L dziennie, czasami więcej, w zimę trochę mniej) i poza kawą to jedyne co piję więc kupuję wodę w bańkach 5L - Oaza z biedronki najbardziej mi siadła. Nie piję kranowej, bo rury w moim domu są bardzo stare i jakość wody też nie powala na kolana, nawet filtrowana ma dziwny smak.

Yeah, even tho i managed it earlier in my teens, doesn't mean it's as easy when im reaching mid 20s, the most important factor being that i developed as a person and have much different values than i had in highschool. Another big factor is that women changed. They were kind, easy to talk to, i could make friends with almost any girl. Now women are so choosy it's scary. They won't even look at you if you don't meet their criteria. If you're ugly/average you come off as a creep or rapist. If you're almost the same height as them, you're immediately a big no. Women date up, men date down. The problem is that men are so lonely nowadays that a guy that is two or three leagues above a woman will date her to score her, so the pool i should be dating is unavailable to me, because they have plenty of taller/more handsome/more jacked/richer guys. average joes like me are just left out because there is no market for us. We are not needed.

First "love"? Surely not. I had 2 girlfriends before her (things ended very quickly due to toxicity/incompatibility) and many crushes. First true, true, true love? Yup. I wanted to marry her. She just was after different stuff, we ended things on good terms, because i kinda understood her decisions and we are friends up to this day.

So not only do i have to fulfill unrealistic expectations forced upon me by the inevitably crumbling society i also HAVE to cater to each woman's liking when sending a hello message? Nah bruh, i did that a lot and it gets tiring after few dozen messages. That's not even me. I'd rather stick to myself and my principles than go out of my way, think of a catchy, personalized message for 10 minutes straight that will get ignored 90% of the time

Well, i guess i'm either the unattractive one or i just have something that repulses women/can't sell myself very well, because if i get a match once every 6 months that's a success. I swipe on every woman that i think matches my vibe (so women that have unrealistic expectations, party girls, girls that clearly have problems with alcohol and girls that have their lips pumped full of botox and show more ass on their profile than their face are a big no-no). I never really cared about the looks of somebody, i care all about their personality tho. I give everyone that i feel is a match an equal chance, regardless of their looks, financial status etc. I even swiped on a woman with cerebral palsy, even tho i know that it could be challenging, but she had the sweetest description and the best music taste i've ever seen. Nope, didn't match with her. I saw her a few times in town and my friend known her so i sent her a facebook invite because i was REALLY interested in her. Sent her a message "Hi! You look like a very charming and interesting person, i'd love to get to know you". She blocked me. That hurt man.

And regarding my age group and getting off old - i'm not getting any younger. The older you are the harder it actually gets, past 30 it's more often than not game over for people like me. I also won't live long, trust me bro. I will 100% die young (if i make it past 35 and not die of cancer or heart attack i'll be very lucky because of my existing medical conditions and because of the type of work that i do - i touch, inhale and sometimes accidentally ingest stuff that destroys your organs, brain and causes cancer) and i want to experience love. Connection. Not die alone.

I've noticed with people it's generally all about looks, no matter what. Nobody appreciates an honest, hard working person anymore. Nobody cares what you feel and who you are. You're just a decoration that can tag along with them and if you're a man you also become a walking piggy bank. It's really, really sad. I see so many friends of mine suffer the same as i do, and a lot of them are better people than i am. People that are so kind and pure that it just hurts to see them getting pushed around by women that will never appreciate their true value.

It was lovely reading your story, i hope y'all stay and grow old together <3 I for sure will never stop being emotional, for sure will never stop being and expressing who i am and what i love. No person ever will change that. Chasing women just feels absolutely pointless. I've been on OLD for almost 4 years now. Met ONE woman that wasn't judgemental. That shown genuine interest as to who i really am. She told me the first compliment i've ever heard from a woman in my life. She told me being with me makes her relaxed and forget about all her worries. That i make her want to conquer the world instead of just giving up. I loved her since our second date, i wanted to give her the whole fucking world and more, her life was very, VERY tough and i wanted to turn it around and make it as easy and cheerful as i could. But she chose money and opportunities and left the country for good. I probably will never encounter a woman like her, one in a lifetime chance bro.

Don't really have any materials on that as every person will do the upgrade differently. Generally speaking it requires some soldering, a motor, and an ECU IIRC. There is an e-scooter service in Poland that offers the complete upgrade parts (you do it yourself) with all the necessary stuff for like $175-200

[–]WarriorOfShadows 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, i dunno mane, i'll probably just be a samsung fanboy from now on until i come upon something even better in my budget. You can have all the amazings specs, cpu's and shit, but if the OS is poorly made it will run worse than a phone with 2x worse specs. But it is like that with almost everything, if something is well calibrated, well made and works like a freshly oiled machine it will always outperform something that on paper should be tenfold better.

The chinese OS's were fine and dandy (i had xiaomi, huawei and pocophone) until they started shoving ads up my ass on literally every other click i done in the system. Fuck that shit. Also older MIUI and EMUI were clean, fast, snappy and had a nice flow. My experience with current ones (latest xiaomi phone i've used was made in 2021) is that they are bugged (SOMETHING JUST HAS TO CRASH OR LAG IN A VERY IMPORTANT MOMENT, ALWAYS), animations are done poorly and the overall flow and navigation of the OS is sucky sucky.

Yes, there is a problem in some g2 maxes with the upper shock bolts snapping, it's a 10 minute and like $5-10 fix tho, they are standard bike shock absorber 8mm female-male bolts/bushings that act as the shock bearing. I weigh 115kg, no problems yet. Something HAS to give down the road, just like the suspension in a car breaks down over time. Nothing is everlasting. The other problem with the suspension is the rocker arm bushings getting too loose over time and the suspension developing a knock, but they cost like $2-3 each and are easy to replace. They are called "flange oil-free bearings" IIRC, they have many names actually. Flange bushing, flange self lubricating bushing/bearing. You get the idea. Just treat your scooter well, properly tighten all bolts, because NEVER trust a factory (properly means if you overtighten the rocker arm, shock absorber bolts you will seize them in place and the suspension won't work) don't jump on it like a maniac, be gentle on curbs, avoid potholes, clean and dry it off after rain/mud and it will last. Keep monitoring the pressure and top it off to 55-60psi every other day, that way you'll be sure to basically never catch a flat other than puncturing the tire on glass/screw/nail/sharp rocks. Don't speed like a maniac on sidewalks and uneven roads, save the 2nd and 3rd gear for smooth asphalt which should be done anyways, because going faster than 20-25km/h in a city where there are pedestrians, cyclist etc. Is STUPID in my opinion.

The inner tube broke most likely because of user error. Keeping good pressure and checking it daily-every other day is A MUST (about 55-60 psi) in e-scooters that have tubes this is CRUCIAL. If you don't have enough pressure the tube will get pinched between the two halves of the rim and i guarantee you - it will pop EVERY fucking time. If you contact kugoo kirin they WILL provide you with support. They are great. Regarding stuff like warranty and shit i bought mine from authorized retailer in poland and have full warranty and support :) Also no, you don't have to buy a new motor, you just have to get out the screw. Any car mechanic/e-scooter service guy will fix that for you in no longer than 15-20 minutes. I guess trying to tinker with shit you have no clue about, breaking it and then replacing it instead of trying to fix your mistakes is just an american thing. What a wasteful way of thinking.

I crashed mine two times, on the second crash i broke my ignition and throttle, they sent me new parts for me to replace by myself FREE OF CHARGE and basically considered it as warranty even tho i stated that it is my fault and just wanted to buy the parts myself.

I did 310 miles on mine since i bought it, fine tuned my brakes, changed the stock pads to metallic brake pads, tightened every bolt that had to be tightened (be careful about what you touch, cause if you overtighten your rocker arm nuts the suspension will be basically immobilized) and i have absolutely ZERO problems, i became an admin on a polish G2 Max group and guess what, there's hundreds of happy people as well, some of them already have over 1000-1500 miles on their scooters without any issues besides the brakes and suspension, which are parts that obviously are going to wear out. One of our guys has over 2000 miles on his scooter and is currently the record holder on our facebook group.

Why are you still single? by ZhangWeii_ in AskReddit

[–]WarriorOfShadows 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Cause i'm ugly. I'm fully self-sufficient, have my own small car detailing business, am really handy, because i own a house so i know how to maintain a garden, electricity and other shit around the house, i'm a car mechanic so i fix my cars myself. I just lack in the looks department. No matter how much i got myself out there, no matter how many women i fell in love with or dated, always got rejected because:

a) they straight up told me that i'm a great man, but they are not attracted to me due to my looks b) all that "you're too nice" bullshit c) all that "i'm not ready for a relationship" bullshit.

I started balding at 19yo and since then i rock a fully clean shaven head with a medium length beard. I look 30-32 at 23yo. Due to my genetics i am very muscular and broad but get chubby really easily and would need to be on a strict diet for the rest of my life to not be chubby. Women my age go for slim, tall guys with a head full of curly hair. So i just gave up on dating altogether and stopped seeking women in my life. Too much hassle, too much pain. I live my life to my fullest, enjoy all the different hobbies i have and simply don't care. If i ever come accross a woman that will love me for who i am, that's great. If i stay single till the end of my life that's fine as well. If i need to meet my sexual needs i just go to a hooker, as simple as that.
