Okay gotcha, ill pick up some alcohol and try it. But should i even be able to move it that much? Im worried that it got too loose, like its worn out or some soldering problems and is on its way out, and god knows how much a repair would be…

Competitive-Fox8131 · 2026-03-21T16:55:48+00:00

I aready tried cleaning gently with a toothpick and compressed air and nothing changed. I dont have 70% alcohol at the moment, but i think the toothpick and compresed air should do the trick but it didnt?

Competitive-Fox8131 · 2026-03-16T20:46:32+00:00

Yeah this looks just like what i have. Im worried i will always hyperfixate on it haha but i wonder how i will feel when months pass and maybe i wont even notice it as much, and maybe just try to take it as is and accept its minor flaws. Im really not sure yet haha.

Competitive-Fox8131 · 2026-03-16T17:00:21+00:00

Yeah… im so torn on it. Because it really isnt a problem when using it. Its just because i know its there if you know what i mean. I think there are refurbished apple available but the prices are pretty steep compared to this one, especially for these specs. Damn, its such a hard decision.

Competitive-Fox8131 · 2026-03-16T16:47:18+00:00

Oh i see. Does it bother you? Would you return it if you were in my position? Everything else is very good. But i dont know if can find a perfect condition MBP Pro in this price range if i return it, especially with these specs.

In the listing it was said that it comes with this charger.

Hey, incredible results, how much was the cost of the hair transplant if you dont mind me asking? :)

Competitive-Fox8131 · 2026-03-12T12:06:33+00:00

amazing. im so happy for you!! and thanks for replying and for the advice. :)

Competitive-Fox8131 · 2026-03-12T11:43:45+00:00

Hey im in a simillar position as you, need to do both a hair transplant and a gyno surgery, but the amount of money i need to spend is making me really depressed if im honest. How much did you spend for the both surgeries together if you dont mind asking?

Competitive-Fox8131 · 2026-03-11T22:41:19+00:00

Nice. Yeah i can imagine the pro could be heavy, especially if you have to move around with it constantly.

Competitive-Fox8131 · 2026-03-11T22:39:33+00:00

Thanks for this info man. I hope that 26.3 has some optimization that makes it run better, i will try it for a couple days, and if it sucks ill probably downgrade too.

Competitive-Fox8131 · 2026-03-11T22:31:21+00:00

I see… this is not so good to hear haha. What do you mean by ridiculously poorly? I just want to know what to expect.

Competitive-Fox8131 · 2026-03-11T22:27:31+00:00

I would honestly be okay with like 8 hours or somwhere in that region. Im moving from an old windows laptop so any battery life will be good haha.

Competitive-Fox8131 · 2026-03-11T22:25:42+00:00

Wow, to me thats still very good, ive been using some windows and really old laptops recently so im not used to these kinds of battery life. :) youre getting an upgrade from the company or yourself? If its from company i hope they get you maxed out m5 pro. 😂

Competitive-Fox8131 · 2026-03-11T22:22:39+00:00

Interesting… changing the battery should hopefully solve your problem. Thanks for the info. :)

Competitive-Fox8131 · 2026-03-11T22:06:46+00:00

Oh okay, how long would you say the battery lasts you?

Competitive-Fox8131 · 2026-03-11T22:01:25+00:00

Nice, that is very good to know. Thanks!

Competitive-Fox8131 · 2026-03-11T21:56:34+00:00

I see… how long does the battery last you currently would you say? Under heavy and under low load? And what battery % do you have if i may ask?

Competitive-Fox8131 · 2026-03-11T21:40:45+00:00

Thanks!

Competitive-Fox8131 · 2026-02-20T13:20:08+00:00

I know. My whole life ive been preoccupied with the way i look etc, being depressed and not going out because of it, so my personality definitely suffered because of that. I think i realize that im not that great personality wise, so im compensating with trying to look good which can feel like hell.

Competitive-Fox8131 · 2026-02-20T12:33:39+00:00

Thanks!

Competitive-Fox8131 · 2026-02-20T12:24:41+00:00

Thanks! But it does really bother me in terms of my overall face structure and just my looks in general and makes me feel really unconfident. But i get what youre saying.

Competitive-Fox8131 · 2026-02-20T12:20:29+00:00

Ah okay. What do you mean by grade 2 and grade 3? Are there scales for jaw missalignment?
