  • I spent $1000 on my Samsung (S6? I can’t even remember anymore) and it’s battery shit the bed after like 12 months and the charging port no longer worked unless the cord was exactly in a specific angle and pressure on order to recharge it. It was a pain in the ass and cheaper to buy a new phone than to fix it.

    Bought a OnePlus 5 after that which lasted 4 years, them a OnePlus 9 which lasted another 4 years, and currently on year 2 of my OnePlus 13 with no issues.

    Samsung could have had another 2-3 phones from me if they had decent quality but nah they prefer to design to fail.

    I’m curious what a human brain would be like growing into being with absolutely no senses to inform itself about the world around it.

    No sight to let it know where it is or what it is.

    No sound to let it learn to communicate and think in orderly ways.

    No touch.

    No taste.

    No ability to interact with its surroundings.

    Yet all of the capability and potential of a regular person’s mind.

    Would it be cruel to bring it into existence? Would it be able to experience negativity and pain and longing, confusion?








  • Windows has had a bug that’s driven me mad since before Windows 10 and it doesn’t seem they have any intentention to fix it.

    When I try to rename files, I always click somewhere in the text of the name or highlight a specific portion, and then 90% of the time RIGHT before I start typing to add or change the name, it randomly highlights the entire thing so the whole text gets replaced instead of the one section I wanted to change.

    INFURIATING and it’s been years that it’s happened, between two different versions of Windows!

    There’s also another 2 or 3 other bugs that are just as infuriating but I don’t imagine will ever be fixed or changed because why the fuck would microsoft care.
