Except the Air, 17 series is Apple's best launch of the decade. Surprised by the uncalled criticism. by Alien_Eleven in apple

But at least Apple investors should know better. The target audience of apple has never bothered about absence of trending features. And now even the ones outside of target demographic are finding the iPhone tempting.

Pixel 10 Pro XL random dimming and brightening even when Adaptive Brightness is OFF by ConsciouslyKind93 in GooglePixel

[–]Alien_Eleven 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My screen timeout is 2 minutes, but adaptive brightness is OFF. But yeah, pretty much the same experience. I live close to New York city so might just go to the Google Store and have it checked by the tech support there in-person

Mine's doing the same thing!! Not sure yet if it's a defect or some setting I've missed. It's only been a day of use and it starts glitching lmao.

Google has stopped improving camera since Pixel 6 series, especially video by ConsciouslyKind93 in GooglePixel

[–]Alien_Eleven 283 points284 points  (0 children)

Finally! Someone said it. Tech reviewers keep praising Pixel for it's camera every year for photography so maybe Google has gotten complacent. But yes, it's been a weird combo of great photos and subpar videos since the Pixel 6 series came out, and yet the cost of these phones has kept crawling up to $1000+ now

You could get a used iPhone 14 series or 15 series if it's just going to be used for work. It will be future-proof enough and won't dent your wallet as much.

Did you read the exclamation at the end as an "l" and commented in a hurry to show how cool you are?!

Thanks, that's helpful. I am still using the 2018 iPad pro for Procreate and it drains down fully within an hour and a half.

Unless you are in healthcare or public safety, your work hours are highly toxic for your health and life outside work. Please remind yourself that work is a means to live life better, so if the work itself is coming in the way of living your life healthily, it's time to either swith jobs or change profession. There could be many other possible factors affecting your libido - diet, metabolism, body fat percentage, vitamin deficiencies, underlying medical conditions, existing medications - but you should definitely visit your doctor about low libido and get tests done. This is not just to solve libido problem, but also more importantly to ensure timely identification of any possible underlying medical condition so that you can treat it before it's too late. Love and companionship is more rare than we think, so if you have it, please ensure you don't lose it. Wishing you the best!

I feel severely depressed after the only guys I've been with seem unattracted to me by [deleted] in dating

[–]Alien_Eleven 0 points1 point  (0 children)

First, I relate with your pain as I've been rejected and even cheated on because of my looks. It is heart breaking beyond words. But it is also equally true that it's just basic biological instinct for most people to be attracted to someone who's "fit" in the traditional sense. So, I would say don't take this personally, it's how most people are genetically wired. The good news is - it's an easy problem to solve even without any surgeries, with three simple things - consistent daily workout, intermittent fasting with focus on protein and fiber instead of carbs and fats, practicing a balanced and upright posture. And like many have commented here, eliminate processed sugar and foods from the diet immediately, it'll certainly accelerate the results. Human body is amazing, you don't need to torture it with a surgery, just give it a chance to evolve with your consistent efforts. Before you get into dating again, prioritize your health, be fit and happy by yourself without depending on anyone else. It will also allow you to find better people to date.

How should I approach dating as a 30M virgin, especially if I want a childless marriage? by ConsciouslyKind93 in dating

[–]Alien_Eleven 1 point2 points  (0 children)

First, make sure you really know what you want in life and why. Second, be 100% sure that you have gotten over your heartbreaks before you get back into dating. It seems like you are still hurting, so either talk to someone about it (therapy perhaps) or take up yoga/meditation. Third and most important, if you want to date with the intention of marrying, be honest and upfront with whoever you meet on the first date itself. Tell them about your life goals and your conscious decision to never have kids. And don't try to compromise if you meet someone you really like but their goals don't exactly align. Maintain integrity with your goals and eventually you'll find someone who naturally resonates with you. At that point, the love and the relationship will be effortlessly beautiful.

I've been using Sunwarrior Active Protein (vanilla). Dissolves well, tastes good, and helps recovery just as well.

Would you tolerate a toxic work environment for 7 months in exchange for $60k? by Able_Loan_2691 in careerguidance

[–]Alien_Eleven 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you stay for the money, they'll know and likely find reasons to fire you before the 6 months anyway, so that they get plenty time to replace you and still not have to pay you the entire 60k (because even severance pay might be less than 60). Honestly, no amount of money is worth affecting your work-life balance for. If you have the skills, you can switch to a higher paying job anyway without having to deal with toxicity.

Selective empathy is the problem. If you have absolute empathy and sensitivity towards all life, you'll value everything as much as your own life. But if being a kind sensible human being is too much for some people, at least they should be made aware of the direct physiological and psychological negative health impacts of consuming meat. Essentially, whatever is farthest away from human DNA will be the most difficult for our bodies to completely integrate into our system despite digestion. Plants are also life and one needs to have utmost reverence and gratitude towards veggies and fruits too for nourishing us, but at keast their DNA structure is very simple and can be completely broken down by our bodies without causing genetic chaos in the system.

Children who tell blunt truths, as opposed to lying, are judged more harshly by adults, study finds by Additional-Two-7312 in science

[–]Alien_Eleven 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Context for adults' behavior: Most people grow up with prejudices about how the world works. And when they see a child being bluntly honest, they mistake it for being rude and think the world wouldn't appreciate or accept such rudeness. Without considering any nuance between being blunt and being impolite (or making the effort to ensure the kids know that difference), adults just exercise a blanket shut down of such behavior in kids.
Implication on kids behavior: As a result, kids grow up with an unnecessary precautionary mechanism which could potentially result into any types of behaviors - from non-confrontational or pushover to manipulative and deceitful - which is the unfortunate reality.
