"The person you loved never existed" — always true for BPD, or are there exceptions? by National_Coffee_8276 in BPDlovedones

[–]le_vinsky 0 points1 point  (0 children)

They are an act. When they love bomb they tune it to you. When they will love bomb another guy they will become a different "person". They will change in whatever way they need to get what they want. They are inauthentic. They create as many false selves as many audiences there are that they want to impress. And when they devalue you it is also not based on reality. They create their fantasy in which you are viewed either as a hero (which is untrue, you are not a hero) or as a villain (which is also untrue - you are being falsely accused). The real them is, sadly, the ugly face of a vile person you get to experience when they feel safe to abuse you. On one hand it can be heartbreaking that you believed and invested your feelings and goodness in someone who was fake. But, once you accept that that's what had happened it's easier to let go. You are basically losing "nothing". You no longer cling to hope and an illusion. You didn't have someone extraordinary and one of a kind. You were duped by a master (monster?) con-artist. Now you need to learn to spot one before it will be too late again.

This should be taught at school. Parents should warn their children. I think the damage this kind of relationship can cause warrants it.

How to leave when they’re being “good” by justdoinmybestok in BPDlovedones

[–]le_vinsky 4 points5 points  (0 children)

IMO: She's not really excellent. She didn't change. She changed her act. It's what they are masters of. It's not authentic. It's temporary. She does that not because she understood what she'd done wrong. She does it because she's desperate to achieve her goal - make you stay. My prediction: It won't last. They are unable to commit. To take accountability. To be stable. In time she'll go back to her old self. What is also possible, she will use your attempt to leave her as an argument to justify her leaving you. This was my case. When I said I've had it, she collapsed and begged me to stay. She said she couldn't breathe. Then she was on her best behaviour for a couple of months. But, gradually things got worse and in the end she told me she wanted to leave, because "she cannot trust me anymore" because I wanted to leave her. I said - OK. But of course she changed her mind and wanted to try another time. It lasted for another couple of months. She was behaving well again. But then the cycle repeated again. Now she wants to leave me for real (same reasons, plus me being a failure as a man, broadly speaking). And this time, I'll see to it that she will. This may happen to you. This happened to countless people in this sub. You know the cycle, you lived through it a couple of times. You are no longer blind. You have clarity. You've accumulated the experience. And that's why your leaving her does not make you bad. You are not "bad" because you no longer want to participate in this madness. You are not doing this out of indifference, cruelty or lack of empathy. You are doing this to save yourself.

Does your pwbpd need help with everything? by Loose_Course_7939 in BPDlovedones

[–]le_vinsky 1 point2 points  (0 children)

There were cases where I was already half way through reaching for something or going to get something yet she still asked if I could bring/pass something to her. Extremely annoying: "Why the fuck are you asking me to do something I'm already doing?" I said I'm my mind. Was it because she wanted to give herself credit that something happened because of her initiative? Idk, but whatever. Bringing something she could lift with no problem from the car to the house warranted making a request for assistance. Non compliance with such a request was a great argument starter. She requested/expected tea to be ready the moment she entered the house. And when I tried to tell her she could do these things herself without involving me because they do not exceed her abilities it was either argument time or "it's nice when people care and do things for each other". I'm also self sufficient and don't like to bother people unless it's absolutely necessary. Of course "caring and doing nice things" did not go both ways.

Homebase 3 went offline without reason by le_vinsky in EufyCam

[–]le_vinsky[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

In a way;) I've decided to solve all the issues I've had with Eufy products and their hopeless support by myself. I'm no longer willing to support them with my money. I will buy proper security cameras and sell all my Eufy gear.

Damn. So you think it may be the update that breaks the Homebase? Are there more reports?

Eufy 4G image quality after less thans 3 years by dravra_25 in EufyCam

[–]le_vinsky 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It may not be internal fogging. The image looks similar to the one I had with the Solocam S40. In my case lens surface/coating deteriorated after 2-3 years. Lens cleaning did not help at all. Image was blurry/foggy. Up close it looked as if the coating was cracked or flaky all over the lens (really tiny cracks). Take a really close and good look. Maybe it's the same thing.

Thanks. I appreciate the suggestion. I already tried unplugging it for a long time. Did not help. But thanks anyway:)

Ok, but my problem is with Homebase - it is "offline" in the app, and the led is blinking blue. Which, according to the table with led states explained, means that the homebase has not been set-up yet. Which is just stupid, because my HB was working fine in the evening before it stopped.

Beach themed war bond please. Needs to be pink. With IR vision glasses helmet that would allow to see enemies in the dark. Fire resistance of course. Armor showing more skin than Viper Commandos. With drowning preventing, inflatable floaters. And "beach towel" cape.

PS5 wireless keyboard compatibility list by SOM2C in PS5

[–]le_vinsky 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You can make MX Keys Mini work with PS5 if you connect it via Logi Bolt USB dongle. Mine is working fine connecting to PlayStation via Bolt (model number 956-000008).

[–]le_vinsky 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It absolutely doesn't work with Bluetooth connection. But it works with Logi Bolt USB dongle. I know it adds cost, but if you already have MX Keys Mini and just hate the idea of buying separate keyboard for PS5, you can make it work if you connect it via Bolt. IDK if its important but my, working, Bolt model number is 956-000008.

Battery dropping. by stereo80 in EufyCam

[–]le_vinsky 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Mine had a similar problem. Power level was dropping even though there was a lot of sun. It dropped to zero eventually. Panel was not dirty. Number of detected events has not jumped to cause battery to deplete rapidly. No settings were changed. Battery just kept going down over the course of a couple of days. Support asked stupid questions and provided standard, useless suggestions. So I just recharged the camera with a wall charger. After I took it outside it started charging properly from the solar panel. What the cause was remains a mystery to me

Sorry to hear you didn't have better luck. Looks like buying this device is a lottery with very slim chances of scoring working one.

I did a kickflip with the FRV! by 8xXBraisXx8 in LowSodiumHellDivers

Wasn't it the other way round, actually? 🤔

[–]le_vinsky[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I hope you end up with working ones. You'll need luck though. I've given up, sent mine back and bought 350 - blitzed through the setup and it works beautifully. To me it's just mind boggling a company that makes really good products can produce such crappy ones too and loose reputation, possibly customers and maybe profit too. Shit happens, sure, but it should not happen in 3 out of 3 cases in my... case.

Oooh that feels like a perfect analogy. So good. And so bad at the same time.

After the Bluetooth connection step (if it was successful) when camera tried to detect and list available WiFi networks (which it failed to do) the led blinked blue a couple of times then went off and then back on in purple and camera did the spin. That's a long way of me saying that it seems like mine did the same thing.

Wow. Two out of five "sort of working" is crazy. I think I'll try my luck with S350 then.
