  • There are always things people want to tell to another person(s) that when spoken either thru inner dialog or outloud, will always feel like they’re so easy to say or hear. The title of this post is a perfect exa.ple of what im trying to write avout in this comment.

    I stared at that title for waaaaay too long in both the front page feed interface as well in this open comment section interface before my brain stopped either having a stroke or stopped lagg g g ing so fucking hard before I under stood why it was saying. I didnt really have a noticeablr problem. Im being dramatic but it definitely a blink or two to get thru reading the words individually, then right away read back thru looking for common word groupings. Then pulled phone back looked at the sentence as a whole beforeitfinallyclickedand****i****Ifeltsoooooostupid















  • What kind of phone are you on?

    If you have a Samsung, id hold off on any drastic moves until you are sure its not a symptom of shitty software updates.

    So say one of my usb c cables inevitably poops the bed and everytime I plug it in my phone it says “slow charging”. Does it damage my phone at all to continue using that cable for long stretches of slow charging?

    My phone was doing the exact same shit that you just outlined. Bought brand new charging blocks, brand new usb C to usb C cables, as well as usb 3.0 to usb C cables and for 2 months I was forced to limp along with with a 1 year old phone at most that wouldn’t accept any type of plug in chargers or cables. I had to use the power sharing from old phones or a charging pad to charge it but even then were talking 8hr minimum to get from 0% battery to 50%-70% at most.

    Idk how to crosspost yet but I just replied to another thread with this story of the shit show its been the past couple of oaths for Samsung and Android update releases.

    Damn this was a post from 3 months ago lol I had to read my own post to remember what this was a reply to. The reason its such a distant memory for me is because for the past 1-2 months Ive been having to use shitty slow as fuck charging pads or other broken screen phones to charge them in order to use them to charge my phone. Spent $150 on chargers. Had a new phone in my shopping cart despite nothing being wrong with my phone other than not charging. Was hemming and hawing for the past 2 weeks if id pull the trigger on different/new phone that could charge. Im type 1 diabetic with constant glucose monitor that connects thru Bluetooth to phone so any time I was out, I was going blood glucose blind once phone died.

    Fuck dont mean to chew your ear off but the point of the story is that it was all an issue caused by another fucking Samsung update. Just downloaded a random update last week and that day it had my phone back to charging normally like nothing fuckin happened.

    So I apologize but my Samsung rage totally made forget all about being annoyed about them fucking up the UI settings for no reason lol. Im 100% riding this phone into the ground and going to any other phone manufacturer than Samsung for my next.

    Got any phone recommendations for a make/model/line that really stuck out above the rest in quality?






  • Jesus christ. No they dont. There’s more than enough dolts like you being employed in an unskilled trade industry for shit wages that has minimal overhead as it is so stealing your wage via tips would mean the restaurant is not going to be in business for long. Its not your employer’s job to babysit your paycheck. If you arent reporting discrepancies, thats on you. Noone is guna keep working at a place that isnt paying employees what their owed. Especially not in an industry where the wage floor is so low and the employment is so heavily driven by word of mouth.
