I’m an Offical Apple phone repair tech. A lot of things stop working once you place new parts in, things that have even thrown me for a loop and made me think I did the repair wrong. I replaced a display, and the vibration and camera stopped working properly. I thought I damaged the haptic feedback motor (That I didn’t even remove) You have to sign into apple’s repair website, and ‘run a diagnostic’ in order to get the vibration function to work again after you swap a part on some models. They all do some weird shit.

Sometimes swapping a camera on a model will cause the camera in app to run at like 3 fps or Face ID will stop working until you validate the parts on their repair site. It’s shit.

ublock origin blocks spotify ads well. I have found a lot of new artists using spotify, I avoided it for a pretty long time. When I find artists I like I usually buy their stuff on bandcamp cause i can get flacs

My forester, when the engine is cold, will idle at about 25 mph :v, it calms down once it’s warm, but still. I wouldn’t be driving around with my foot on the brake

I’m still on my S8 :v

I kinda make that extra 1000 a month. I am a disabled vet and pretty much get UBI for the rest of my life, and I gotta saaaay it’s pretty nice. Definitely lowers stress in a huge way. No matter what, mortgage is always paid. I really wish this could be a thing for everyone. Or, you know, businesses would be forced to pay workers a minimum wage based on profits or something, I don’t know.

Always hoping they’ll just release GW3… I’m a wee bit of a graphics snob and that game is cool but so dated

I use Brave browser on my S8 and youtube works fine. Can even enable a setting that lets you minimize brave or turn the screen off and the video plays

It is… I lived in Korea in 2014 and my cellphone internet was cheaper and felt like it was the same speed as my landlines back home. I tethered my Xbox through my phone and played through it all the time. My cellphone bill was like, 40 bucks for unlimited internet and my phone came with two batteries and had a tv antennae built into it. GOLDEN YEARS, I SAY!

The only ISP in my area is comcast and they charge me about 90 dollars a month for metered 20 MB/s down. If you call them for anything they try to put extra things on your account and if you flat out tell them no, they will ignore you and continue saying that they’re going to add the thing until you threaten them or start yelling over the phone it’s fucking insane.

Things like TV service or a phone line or something, to be specific. The two times I’ve called, i’ve been told about hot new deals with included TV service that will be free for a month and start costing money the next. I told them no, and they go “Oh it’s free, I’m just going to add it and you can cancel it before.” Told them no, just to be told how it’s free (it isn’t) and had to get fucking mad over it. They’re so fucking awful but I’ve got no other options

Americans: “I Don’t think about you guys at all.”

I woke up and remote downlaoded using my phone and went back to sleeeeeep. But i just found out my dog has congestive heart failure so I haven’t been able to enjoy it :(
