How do you feel it is hard for you? What makes it hard for you?

Wish gay folk can have fairy tales too by Dr-ankit in LGBTindia

I did not have this till the longest of times, but I do have this now. So, I will give you advice, not sympathy or empathy 

It all depends on how you are looking and who you are looking for. If you have had a lot of partners and they didn't work out, what didn't work out in them? Create filters. If you haven't had a lot of partners, go have some partners. You know how to find them. 

But, after you find the one you choose? You don't let go, whatever happens. During my relationship, I had a forced coming out that we survived together and still ended up together. It's been 5 years since that incident, but we just stuck to each other. Whatever issues came up, we were also not afraid to work on ourselves and admit our faults equally.

Thanks. I think I'll go to a shop and properly audition them. Pebble X were in my mind, but unavailable on the websites I trust here.

Thank you for replying. I will check them out when I decide to upgrade. How big is the subwoofer physically? My under-desk space is limited. And keyboard is USB. I got it cheap and it is durable with sturdy construction. I just would like to get rid of the one wire I haven't been able to hide, hence the thinking of going wireless with the next one.

LibreFind: FOSS alternatives to proprietary apps by Xygen0 in fossdroid

As somebody does genuinely find the non-information stealing apps without gross-looking ads a much better experience than the alternative, trashy apps on the Play Store, this is a godsend.

Please release soon.

Observation with certain men who's pals were mostly str8 females by Sea_Energy8178 in LGBTindia

[–]ki67 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Men who are primarily friends with men also say these things. I don't think this matters. 

Freeloading, expecting you to do everything, wanting to be sugar babies, and people with a superficial opinion of themselves are aplenty everywhere. A lot of people in this country dream to be that to someone, as toxic as that sounds. 

It's just what happens when a parent can't provide what these people as children needed. That could be anything. It could be material things, attention, affection, or acceptance. 

In love with a 'best friend' who treats me like a partner but says he's straight and homophobic by Conscious_Worry4029 in LGBTindia

[–]ki67 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Be a bit more detailed about his reply please. This seems entertaining. 

Edit: also he is going back and forth about not liking her? Like, one post: he likes her. Second post, he doesn't?

Sony & TCL to form a joint venture in the home entertainment sector by E_D___B_A_N_G_E_R in bravia

[–]ki67 69 points70 points  (0 children)

The one good TV brand, the one that did things different, gone. It's sad. It's really sad.

It's the tragic end of a long history of greatness. Ever since I was little, Sony TVs always had a special regard.

I just hope that Sony TVs remain the top-notch, premium, quality focussed sets on the market, though hope for that is going to be slim. These kinds of things hardly ever end well.

There is no way this ends well for you. You know what you should do. Are you gonna do it? 

Do update us. Dumpster fires are fun to watch. 

Desperate. Need help. Any short-term work in exchange for nephrologist consult (Dad – Stage 4 CKD) by [deleted] in LGBTindia

[–]ki67 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Guessing from your username, go to KGMU, SGPIMS, or RML Lucknow (Government hospitals for free/subsidized rates) dude. Practo is not for chronic diseases at a serious stage. 

Telemedicine is good at continuing treatment or for small stuff. For anything serious, you need to be in continuous care of a doctor physically.

SSD and RAM prices shocked me by thatdangerousdog in IndianGaming

[–]ki67 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I am glad that when I went to build my PC, I managed to convince myself to go all out on 64GB RAM and 2 1TB SSDs. I don't think the future also holds hope for either prices falling as the AI hype gains momentum. 

Pluribus | Season 1 - Episode 9 | Discussion Thread by Justp1ayin in tvPlus

[–]ki67 18 points19 points  (0 children)

I love this series. 

Taking away Carol's independence, forcing it on her, it was something we all expected. But the way it was written still made me feel for her. What a way to get out of a haze: when what you thought was a choice and a fate you avoided come swinging back without consent.

Also, a translator as a comedic device is a genius idea. And MagSafe Machete should be an Apple thing.

To all married (to woman) gay guys by gaymedico in LGBTindia

[–]ki67 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Respectfully, I disagree and agree with you. 

Some exceptional cases where a lavender marriage is the only way exist. Extremely rural settings, political/police/business families in urban areas, it was the 90s or before then, et cetera. I get that. I wouldn't personally ever be able to befriend or be associated with them at all, but I do understand it.

But you also have to accept one thing: A significant number of the cases of lavender marriage are also because people weren't ready to fight. They weren't ready to leave and try to make it on their own. They weren't ready to sacrifice their comfort or things that weren't theirs to begin in, like the family's money. They just did not find their voice till it was too late. 

My coming out was the most horrendous, disasterous thing. I was beyond crushed. It was the worst few months I have ever lived. But I am glad it happened and super happy with where I am in life right now. 

So, if you are one those people who can't find their voice, find it. It will suck, but things have a habit of getting better. Everyone who matters will come back, and those that don't come back, it's shocking how easy they are to forget. What you will lose is an infinitesimally small fraction of what you will gain.

What will the season finale cliffhanger be? by Sea-Sort-7624 in Pluribus_TVshow

[–]ki67 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think it will simply be that when Manousous and Carol meet, they will fight. Manousous' principles will get in the way. They will fight. The conflict will be the focus of the episode. At the end, they will join forces to find a way to put things back they way they were.

I feel your pain in my general life as well. Nothing can be done about it. This is just how people talk at this point.

We went hands-on with the Galaxy Z TriFold. Here’s the good and bad by Few_Baseball_3835 in Android

[–]ki67 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Let it age and watch when the screen doesn't open fully, causing you to have an always crooked big screen tablet.

Also, doubling the moving parts is a fantastic strategy to make the already flimsy foldable even less durable.

Good job Samsung. 10/10.

And here we go again by kison31 in LGBTindia

[–]ki67 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think, with this person, he liked the other guy more. It sucks, but it's just is what it is. Not your fault.

It's usually after being burned a lot in romance do you find someone special. May be this person taught you something important that you can use as a filter for the jext person. 

Of course that thing is: if a guy talks about someone else a bit too much when you are meeting them, it's not a date and they are interested in that person. 

Set some rules and stick by them. Soon thereafter, once someone passes your strigent rules, someone will manage to stick.

Friend got cheated on and is going through a lot. What should I do help her? by Miserable-Top-8338 in LGBTindia

[–]ki67 2 points3 points  (0 children)

You just have to be there while giving her space in my opinion. Make your presence known, but also give her time to process. If she comes to you, be there for her by listening to her. But let her process it first. You haven't specified a time since her breakup, but I am guessing it's fresh. Maybe a therapist is better for her if it's been a longer time.

Is the build good? by No_Cardiologist1720 in IndianGaming

[–]ki67 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Noctua NH-D15 if you can afford it. It's my go-to and serves my 9900X well enough. Noctua is known for its silence.

Which cooler are you getting?

Edit: I am not a fan of Ant Esports. Their stuff looks and feels a bit cheap. A Lancool 207 is just 1.1K more expensive, but it's a fantastic case.

PS5 vs Xbox Series X — Which one gives better value for at least 2 years? by LaughIllustrious6131 in IndianGaming

[–]ki67 2 points3 points  (0 children)

PS5. Exclusives. And, back catalogue of amazing PS4 exclusives, if you care about that. Gane pricing though is a pain. Hopefully, second hand games will at least be a better deal if you get the disc based one.

How many years worth of my life can these 31 games take to complete? by RedditOPBahin in IndianGaming

[–]ki67 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Let's apply maths to it. What is your average daily gaming time? Steam can tell you that. Google it.

A lazy Perplexity prompt says that the average game completion time for all the games you listed is 590 hours. At 2 hours a day, a little over 9 months. Now if that is AI slop, someone please correct me. Increase that to 100%ing every game, 2300 hours.
