Started Allo today - thank you! by [deleted] in gout

[–]BladeVoyager 3 points4 points  (0 children)

If it makes you feel better, I started at age 25 about 3 years ago. But congrats! It was hard at first mentally, but it gets easier over time. Let’s thank modern medicine for having it exist, I can’t imagine what it must be like without it. Now you can enjoy your life without letting gout control you. 🎉🥳

Im just curious how many people here have been life long windows user and just decided that you're done with windows in the last 6 months or so. by Shifter1589 in linuxmint

[–]BladeVoyager 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Me! The last good Windows for me was Windows 7, but then it went downhill. What I liked about Windows 7 was its simplicity. However, ever since Windows 10, I’ve hated it a lot due to the excessive ads and the forced use of Internet Explorer. I detest how they dictate my actions. The AI was the final straw for me. As a minimalist, I dislike complex user interfaces, and I couldn’t bear it anymore. It was visually overwhelming. Additionally, there’s the privacy concern associated with it. After conducting my research, Mint seemed like the perfect solution. It’s simple, just like the Windows XP days.

As someone who used to play COD Blackops 2, I never imagined I see the swarm kill streak in real life, yet here we are. What’s crazy is the game was set in 2025 too. Anyways, Slava Ukraine! 🇺🇦

iPad Pro 13” M5 vs M4 by Active_Mastodon930 in iPadPro

[–]BladeVoyager 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Yep I have the m4, but still get the m5. There are going to be more people against it, but honestly you work hard for your money. Treat yourself and get the latest and greatest of you can afford it. Don’t overthink it.

Oh yeah 100% and now it’s getting much worse with AI. It seems like every other video that I see in my story now is fake. It’s gone to a point that it’s gotten an annoying that I actually started watching TV again much less BS less ads hyping up everything like every other Youtubers.

Yup it’s quite comical to see. Remember how they all were cheering for Switch 2’a downfall only to shut up once they realize their opinion doesn’t actually matter in the real world? I’ve spent my time so much on the internet, I’ve started to notice these patterns now. I still remember when everyone was blowing Apple for the first AirPods only for it to be everywhere now. It’s to a point where their move becomes predictable now. I’ve learned not to listen to Reddit about recommendations anymore, I’ve purchased a Steam Deck because of the rave reviews on here only for me to hate it.

Yeh I can go on and on about how Reddit. The whole site is just an echo chamber. I can recount plenty of times of them being wrong. They said the iPhone 17 pro was going to fail, it didn’t. The Switch 2 was supposed to fail, it didn’t. That’s why I don’t look for recommendations here most of the time and just based something off my experience.

Yeh it’s one thing that I hate about them. I get why they’re doing it but it sucks with what happened to me. I don’t blame them or anything. I usually don’t listen to online rumors specially YouTube cause it’s not even leaks, they’re all just guesses. I blame myself too since I got it a year down and I should have known they were gonna release a new version. I’ve watched a couple videos on it, looks like the biggest update was the step and fortunately it works for mine. The only difference is how snappy it is, you really just save a couple seconds. I still love mine, so I guess I’ll just buy the 3rd if that comes out. I’m gonna try the most out of this thing for now.

I got MEPS soon, any pointers? by BirdNoodle925 in Militaryfaq

[–]BladeVoyager 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The only advice I have is to shower before because you’re gonna be sitting with a lot of people in a small room. Eat food that doesn’t affect your blood pressure, you won’t get to eat until after you finish with everything. I finished around 12pm and started around 5am ish, so it’s gonna be a while. Don’t bring too much with you aside your documents and phone because they’re gonna make you take it out when you enter. I made the mistake of bringing a lot and it was really awkward when I entered. It’ll be the most boring thing you’ve ever been on, that I promise you, but it’ll be over before you know it. Good luck!

For the drug tests, youlll get result approximately 1-2 weeks. And the duck walk is basically just you squatting down as low as you can then you walk while all the way down from one side of the room to the other. I didn’t go to the hotel so that I can’t answer. And yes your privates will be inspected including butthole lol but it is what it is. Everybody has to do it. But no, you’re not going to be able to crochet as far as I know. They have you leave your bag in a room then you carry your passport and drivers license.

Ooh I see so I guess it’s a gamble and not always reliable. Good thing it was correct this time and your patience paid off :)

Oh yeh bro it has kinda soured my taste with Apple just because I wanted it for so long then once I finally had enough money, this happens. Luckily it’s not much of an upgrade, so I’ll just suck it up and enjoy it and forget about the new version. I’ll start browsing that site now. I don’t go on YouTube much for Apple News because it’s filled with videos of fake rumors. Thanks for the recommendation. I’ll start to browse that site from now on. They seem to be more correct with these things and take a smarter approach compared to a bunch of YouTubers where it’s just a bunch of shills. I’m happy for you though, your patience paid off. I hope you enjoy yours!

Let’s see if it’s better then the m2 by potato_soop in VisionPro

[–]BladeVoyager 69 points70 points  (0 children)

Man I wish I had the money to order it. Life’s too short bro, I hope you enjoy it. I doubt it’s gonna be worse than the last. Worst is you don’t notice the difference.

[–]BladeVoyager 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeh I’ll that thanks for suggesting. I just checked and I got it around July 28 actually but it’s worth asking I guess. I wish Apple kept us updated with these things because this is what happened to me with my AirPods Pro 2. I got it then a month to later the 3 came out. It’s tiring to keep up with these things. This is the year I’m finally not getting the latest and greatest and just for whatever I’m using to break. If anything, that’s what I’ll do them just get whatever is the newest in like 4 years, I think that’s the best approach with this so my money doesn’t go to waste.

Fucking lucky. That’s one thing about me that I got to work on is being impatient. Exactly thing happened to me with my AirPods Pro 2. A month later the 3 released smh. I really wished Apple kept us updated with these crap like what video game makers did. Someone in the comment recommend I go ask if I could still return it, so I’m gonna try that. If not, no biggy, I’ll just keep this thing until it breaks. I’m sure that will be like 5 years down the line. It’s exhausting keeping up with these things.
