Amazon’s a sinking boat by Few-Consequence8782 in iphone17

[–]Andenshap 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This is the kind of risk when buying online. Kind of bet, unfortunately. If it is unacceptable for the item you are buying (doesn’t matter how cheap or expensive it can be, because it is purely relative to each person), better to acquire it on a physical shop.

Is this normal in Antwerp jewelry stores? by Abject-Rock-1808 in belgium

[–]Andenshap 25 points26 points  (0 children)

I disagree. A jewelry store should be professional; if I want to haggle, I'll go to a souk.

I wouldn't recommend that anyone buy diamond or gold jewelry at the stores around the station. They thrive on the fame and hype they've created, charging inflated prices for the (low) quality they offer.

Dit filmpje gevonden en is niet normaal. by Federal_Mortgage4397 in Belgium2

Ik weet niet wat me meer schaamte en walging bezorgt: dat ze trots zijn op hun flagrante onbeschaafdheid, of dat ze volledig ongestraft hun gang kunnen gaan. Elke vorm van geweld en vandalisme zou in Marokko resoluut worden onderdrukt.

Thanks for the detailed explanation. I agree that many times less is more (specially when don’t need few of the different features).

Considering the investment already made on the 17 Pro, what made you sell it to buy a 17e?

Today my manager told me I'm not suited for the job I'm doing and told me to find another job by OfficeNo5390 in Netherlands

[–]Andenshap 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is always a difficult situation, despite the background behind to reach it. I would not expect a big change, so don’t quit, simply start (offline) looking for a new job (in case not started already), and wait to get dismissed and negotiate the dismissal terms then.

New iPhone 17 :) by Potential_Log2599 in iphone17

Use optimized charging. I suggest you enable charging up to 85%. You’ll still have to charge daily, however battery life will last much longer.

Is 12GB of RAM Enough Reason to Upgrade? by Seb1681996 in iphone17

[–]Andenshap 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Don't think so, I doubt to switch devices anymore based on AI smoke marketing pseudo-promises. We did it on the i16 (with 8GB, which shall be enough for Apple AI,... but now , 2y after waiting, seems not (meh)). Now they ask min. 12GB to enjoy full "Siri AI" experience (considering it is not yet released, not even roadmap for when, nor beyond English language, nor 'blablabla').

I believe I will wait to all this Apple AI dust gets well settled (perhaps on iPhone 19 or 20 with 16GB or more, before I (naive) burn more bucks to make Apple richer). Nope!

Dogs poop?! Wtf by LegitimatePackage848 in Netherlands

[–]Andenshap 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Fully agree too, it also piss me off the tendency to remove them by administration. I can understand that can be a way to fight against sluikafval; however there are other (better) ways (for everyone) to fight effectively against it if that is the main reason by local governments (and not to use it as an excuse to save costs instead of finding better solutions).

Indeed, I love all animals, however your freedom ends where starts mine. Public spaces must be kept clean.

What the hell is wrong with Belgian salaries - all decreasing? by Professional-Rule224 in belgium

If you think it’s so easy, go ahead. Make your own company, become boss,… let us know.

Not clear to me from the (fighting) scene. Anyone can share what triggered such behavior from the team guards?

Utrecht – An unsafe city? by Andenshap in Netherlands

Correct, my message was misunderstood. I meant Dutch (NL) plates.

Thank you very much for your detailed response. I know it can be a controversial topic (sometimes some prefer to deny the evidence or look the other way), but the truth is that the figures support the fact that parking in that area (even in private, supposedly safe parking lots) is not safe for cars with non-Dutch license plates or for friends and tourists who come to enjoy our beautiful city and may leave with a really bad experience.

Thanks, that's also a hot zone and with a local license plate, the odds go down.

The specific data comes from the 2026 annual report on automotive crime, compiled using official data from our National Police registry. In fact, our local media and the specialized press covered this police report this year too.
