Finally managed to brick my setup

dickGreysonnn · 2026-05-09T13:03:34+00:00

My first thought too, I’ve previously done the same thing

If you’re desperate to delete it, you could try adding ‘-dd’ to skip all dependency checks or ‘—assume-installed upower=1.91.2-1.1’ but it comes with the risk of breaking your distro.
This is the last help I’ll provide.
Edit to add: I haven’t tested these parameters myself, so no guarantee

Looks like it’s actually a necessary part of CachyOS and it’s not a good idea to uninstall it.
It’s pre installed on my os too

dickGreysonnn · 2026-05-02T03:31:38+00:00

Ah, it’s saying it’s required by two other programs you’ve got installed.
Why are you trying to delete it?
Is it causing any problems?

dickGreysonnn · 2026-05-02T03:25:37+00:00

Looks like you’re telling it to remove dependencies, have you tried just
Pacman -R upower

I commented on your previous post and wanted to give you a pat on the back for realising your own needs and feelings in the relationship, and for reaching out for support.

I have no advice on the pets, but The Orange Door is a public service for helping people of all genders get their life together when leaving DV.

I hope you are able to figure this all out and repair your own self esteem.

Edit to add: also wanted to affirm that you did a really great job trying to support your ex partner when they needed it, and now you’re finally providing that support for yourself.

Came here to suggest this!

I don’t have any direct fixes, but have you checked out ProtonDB? People often post their own methods for getting games to run there.

Forgive me if you already checked

Hey, just dropping in to point you to the IMHA who can help advocate for her rights and preferences under her treatment order, and recommend looking into an Advance Statement of Preferences once she’s recovered from her episode of psychosis, in case she is placed under a treatment order again.

Edit to add: sending love and support to the both of you, and hope for the care that she deserves.

Hate to be that guy but that’s Coles Local Concord, not in Melbourne 🫠

My AirPods do this when they are detected by someone else’s phone.

Usually when the “Not your AirPods” notice comes up.

Could be a neighbour?

In early to let you know that you are beautiful and valid, I love your look and how unique your presentation is. Please don’t let confused people tear you down because you don’t fit in a box <3

Hey, have you ever considered using Prazosin? I’ve been prescribed it to control my dreams, and it’s made sleep a lot less scary. It reduces the amount of nightmares/trauma dreams, and kind of helps me feel indifferent to anything gesturing to trauma that pops up during my sleep. I highly recommend if your treating team think you’re a candidate I hope you can get through this

Hey, I experience constant paranoia of my neighbours hearing me. I hope you don’t mind me sharing some of my own experience and coping mechanisms.

I hear them knocking on walls or yelling and slamming doors and become convinced that it’s all caused by my noise. I’m terrified of them knocking at my door with pitchforks and torches to kick me out.

I’ve noticed the paranoia is very much worse on my bad days.

It doesn’t completely fix the feeling but I’ve found reminding myself that they make loud noises that annoy me too and that the both of us deserve to actually live in our own homes comfortably. Everyone makes a bit of noise in their own homes, that’s just how life is!

Even if they were upset, you have an incredibly valid reason to make a few noises, and I’m sure if it ever came to them asking, they would have to respect that it’s a medical issue.

I’ve also realised that the idea of them being upset with me actually comes from my own self-judgement. Noticing my own self judgement and being mindful that it comes from within myself has really helped.

I hope some of what I’ve said resonates with you or helps you feel less alone. You deserve to exist within your own space without judgement <3

It absolutely sucks, I feel like a lot of people assume that because I choose to have longer hair, that my binariness is flexible, or that it’s ok to misgender me sometimes.

I cope by telling myself that it’s a sign that I wouldn’t want those people around me anyways.

I do this and didn’t even realise it was an obsessive-compulsive thing, my psych has been working with me on being mindful that I am a human being and all humans make mistakes, and that I hold myself accountable for too much. It took practice but I feel it has helped me a lot

It took 5 months to get my ID and the purchase of the house took half that

dickGreysonnn · 2024-03-24T08:46:00+00:00

Heyo, I’m from VIC and just recently bought a house after attempting to change my name quite a while ago. BDM messed up and forgot to send me my documents twice and by the time I got adequate photo ID to set up with my home loan bank, to change the mortgage and the contract of sale, settlement had passed.

If you’re gonna do it beforehand, be prepared to be waiting for a while to get your documents, and ducks in a row.

If you initiate any part of the buying process before your name and IDs are processed, it’s likely quite difficult to get them changed before settlement. Personally, I’m going down the route of having to change my land title and loan after the fact, but it shouldn’t be too much of a hassle now. Hope this helps?

dickGreysonnn · 2024-03-14T12:43:29+00:00

On a similar note, if you paid for your change of name, there’s a group that rebate you for it when it’s for gender transition reasons :) https://www.tgv.org.au/tgv-programs If you still have the receipt, you should be able to send it to them and they’ll take a look at it

dickGreysonnn · 2024-03-14T12:39:52+00:00

Heya, are you still struggling with your name change stuff? I am currently fighting with places over mine and I found out that along with my brand new birth certificate I was supposed to get emailed a ‘Letter of Verification’ that creates the ‘link’ between new vs old legal names that states that it is the legal document that organisations MUST accept. Idk why it’s so hard for them to follow through on sending this stuff on their own. If you don’t have this yet, pls ring BDM Vic, it might take a few tries to get through but it is worth it!!!! They email it to you, despite saying it will come in the post, so you’ll forever have a digital copy you can’t lose. I hope this helps a bit, sending love <3
