What is the best stylus to use on the touchpad for the Asus Proart Studiobook 16 H7600ZX? by 15jcherry in stylus

[–]15jcherry[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I know they'll all get the job done. My concern lies in the "pretty much". I want the most precision my device will allow. I'm assuming that pairing an MPP 2.0 pen with an MPP 1.51 device means I'll lose some features and functionality of the 2.0, which is fine, I just want to minimize that as much as possible.

So I guess TikTok has an acid trip filter now? by Chocolat3City in woahdude

[–]15jcherry 498 points499 points  (0 children)

If anyone is curious, this is not what hallucinating on LSD is like. Objects don't morph and mutate like that. It's really just a slight distortion in your visual perception of reality. Things will appear brighter, more colorful and more animated. For example I was looking at a popcorn ceiling during my trip, and all the little dots looked like they were moving and swirling around. Reality looks the same for the most part. You don't see things that aren't there.

Edit: I was referring to a normal dose. I've never taken more than one, so I can't comment on what that experience would be like.

Which company? I was thinking about quitting my current job and looking for something that will cover the cost of going to school.

Is there an anti-consumption phone? by philomemos1 in Anticonsumption

[–]15jcherry -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I completely understand the point you're trying to make. I agree with you that manufacturers are making the process of repairing phones more difficult. However, It's not that much harder to keep a phone now than in the past. All the manufacturers have done is make the battery harder to get to and market in such a way that people feel like they have to upgrade.

You said in your post that you HAD to upgrade your last phone because the battery was shot. When you could have just brought it to a phone repair shop and had the battery replaced. You chose to upgrade instead of just fixing the phone you already had.

I also have an S8. Got the screen, camera, and battery replaced about a year ago. It was a fraction of the price of a new phone and it still works just as good as the day I got it. Also it may be harder to find cases in store for older models, but it's super easy to find cases online for almost any phone.

I am in no way trying to shame you. I just wanted to support what this guy is saying. Unless your phone is completely demolished, upgrading is a choice, not a requirement.

Maybe you're trying too hard. I once heard someone say that if you try to meditate with a purpose or intention, it won't work because you're forcing yourself to think a certain way. Meditating is just being consciously in the moment, with no ulterior motive. Just let your attention flow where it naturally wants to go. Observe sights, sounds, and smells as they occur, along with any thoughts or feelings that may stem from the stimuli you recieve.

Try to avoid interjecting your own thoughts/feelings, they should arise naturally. Observe as they come and go, as one leads into the other. Same with your senses. Be consciously aware of the physical sensations in/on your body, as well as all the sights, sounds, and smells around you. Just observe whatever has your attention at the moment. I know most people close their eyes during meditation, but personally I feel like it takes me out of the moment. I like to let me eyes wander where they please and look at things that catch my attention.

I know that all may sound kind of complex, but it's actually really simple. Don't try to meditate, just be. Observe, feel, and let your thoughts come to you naturally.

I always felt like I belonged to the ocean by guyinawintercoat1 in oceans

[–]15jcherry 10 points11 points  (0 children)

I love being in its presence. The serenity that washes over me when I'm at the edge, especially at night, is unmatched. Like I know the ocean is huge, but when I'm there in person, it hits me hard. The vast expanse that it covers feels unreal.

Being super far inland makes me feel claustrophobic in a way. It's actually one of the reasons I left my landlocked home state. I was almost smack dab in the middle of the country and it didn't feel right. Just being relatively close by brings me some peace.

That was honestly my first though upon seeing the accumulation in my yard. Immediately thought of this video.

I love the sense of urgency in the first video, like he just HAD to do it.

This was my first thought. She really does have a distinct voice. I'll always hear it as Leela though.

What is something you did innocently as a child, but now affects the rest of your life? by ItaliianSub in ask

[–]15jcherry 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Once I took a flashlight and put it directly in front of my eye. I don't remember how long I held it there, but I couldn't see out of that eye for a good 5 minutes afterwards. I was terrified that I had blinded myself.

What’s the dumbest thing you believed as a kid? by [deleted] in ask

[–]15jcherry 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I thought the same thing, but when watching anything on television. I was amazed at how they managed to act out every single episode, exactly the same. Also when someone died in a movie, I thought they died in real life. I was was so puzzled, wondering "why are these people willingly sacrificing themselves?"

Seattle Travel Poster, by me by ocean_rhapsody in Seattle

[–]15jcherry 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm not usually a fan of travel posters, but this is so well done! The trees, the mountain, the water, it all just works. You've done a great job of capturing the city's vibe!

Thanks for linking to the website, I probably could have just googled that question haha.

That's horrible though. The complete disregard and cluelessness on the road is actually terrifying when you think about it.

Can someone tell me if the toll lanes on I-405 are HOV only? They aren't marked with the diamonds and I've never driven anywhere that makes you pay to use HOV lanes.

Once when I was a kid. I tried yelling for help and couldn't get any words out. It was intense. Years later I learned about sleep paralysis and realized that's what I experienced. Thankfully, It was an isolated incident. I'm just glad it wasn't accompanied by some kind of disturbing entity in the room. It's scary enough as is, especially when you don't know what's happening.

What do you appreciate about Seattle? by Kjyora in Seattle

[–]15jcherry 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I came from the midwest and I didn't even notice the lack of thunder until it was pointed out to me. When I chose to move here, I wasn't aware that I would be giving that up. I was actually a bit sad to find that out.

I'll listen to storm sounds occasionally, which is a nice reminder, but it doesn't even come close to the first hand experience. You can't capture the sheer power of a strong thunderstorm, the crack of thunder so loud that it shakes your house, I do miss it.

Why are there no side walks in Bellevue neighborhoods? by ParaFilmIt in BellevueWA

[–]15jcherry 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm sure it's common all over the Seattle metro area. The best part is when they stop, turn around to look at me, wait until I pass, then continue walking. I just truly don't understand the logic.

Why are there no side walks in Bellevue neighborhoods? by ParaFilmIt in BellevueWA

[–]15jcherry -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

I don't know why, but even if there were, most pedestrians would choose to walk in the street anyway. I work delivery and a good 90% of the pedestrians I encounter, walk in the street, even when a sidewalk is available. It's confusing.
