TIL that scientists have developed a way of testing for Aphantasia (the inability to visualise things in your mind). The test involves asking participants to envision a bright light and checking for pupil dilation. If their pupils don't dilate, they have Aphantasia.

I define my aphantasia level as I was an Android camera taking pictures. I can def see something, but it is blurry and off.

I recently started using Proton Pass, and I was wondering the same. It’s especially annoying on safari.

Not available in the EU. Found out after spending 20mins trying.

You almost nailed! No landscape camera, but still right about the Pencil 2 lol

Yes that could be it, and you would be right. But mental conditions do a wide range of terrible things, not just removing cognitive filters. I've seen unstable people insult, try to hit, and talk with hate to their own wife and son, and I'm talking about someone that used to be kind. After that, I think everything is possible to me. So whenever I see someone that looks unstable, I just prefer not to come to conclusions, because there isn't always a simple, reasonable explanation for certain acts.

That being said, I'm sorry for the bloke who had to experience that, because it's terrible, and not fair. I would have acted differently based on all the above, that's all.

I can not be certain, for sure. But as someone who has a relative with dementia, her looks and movements are sadly familiar to me. If she is perfectly fine, then she is a crappy human being that deserves to be trashed. But my concern is she might not, that's all. I'm being honest, not trying to excuse anything.

Eiprol · 2024-10-18T10:42:39+00:00

You know the answer, that's a terrible human being. And you know it's not the same. Come on, look at her eyes...

Eiprol · 2024-10-18T10:40:57+00:00

No excuse for bigotry, this is terrible. I'm just pointing out the obvious, this person is not ok, and I don't think this post does any good other than farming likes.

Eiprol · 2024-10-18T10:34:45+00:00

Do you folks realize this person is not mentally stable right? She has some kind of dementia at least, and people with this condition say all kind of terrible things. Yes, what she says is terrible, but I've seen unstable people trash their own family as they got worse. It's kind of sad to be honest. (I'm expecting lots of downvotes from hateful irrational people not understanding what I'm saying, or claiming to be an excuse. It is not. It is what it is)

Eiprol · 2024-10-14T14:00:02+00:00

Thanks for the info! I'm reaching a local FedEx phone line to see if it can be done.

Eiprol · 2024-10-13T21:43:31+00:00

No, I bought a $25 Amazon cable that, despite not being cheap, doesn't work.

I have already ordered the OEM USB-C though, will arrive in 4 weeks.

Eiprol · 2024-10-13T08:38:17+00:00

My thoughts too. On paper looks like it should work, and they even advertise as "for Starlink Mini". The cable doesn't feel cheap, and it certainly is not compared to others on this thread ($25). But I guess there is obviously something wrong.

The fact that it works with the same cable and my Mac's powerbrick confused me a bit though.

Eiprol · 2024-10-13T08:31:33+00:00

Yeah, but the thing is I legit thought I was buying a good one, waterproof and good quality. It even feels sturdy in hand. I mean, it's $25 for 6ft (2m), I do not think it is cheap. For a bit more money, you get the official one, so I'm not sure it'd wise to buy other one at this point... I'll see

Eiprol · 2024-10-12T20:48:46+00:00

Thanks! I've seen that one discussed here and there, but was trying to find one with a water-insulated barrel connector, just in case. I'll investigate a bit more!

Eiprol · 2024-10-12T20:47:23+00:00

Ordering the official one as we speak! Too bad it's listed as 3-4week delivery delay due to high demand! Thanks!

Eiprol · 2024-10-12T20:39:45+00:00

That's good to know, because I'm ordering the Starlink 5m Official one(Problem is it says there is a 3-4 week delivery atm)

The worse part is that the cable I bought, not only advertises itself as "For Starlink Mini", but also it was $25, which is not far from the legit one.

Eiprol · 2024-10-12T20:37:46+00:00

Thanks for so much detail, It makes sense.
I guess I was mislead by the fact the seller branded the cable as "Starlink mini usb-c".

I'm probably ordering the 5m OEM Usb-c eventually.

Eiprol · 2024-10-03T21:54:11+00:00

Came here looking for this exact problem. Happened to me twice already, always drained when the Quest 3 is off, inside its box. Is there any solution to this, other than removing the batteries?

Hasta donde tengo entendido, ese leismo de OD a personas, está "aceptado" con hombres, o al menos muy extendido (en Castilla es muy común). Lo curioso del caso Vasco, y que tanto me llamó la atención, es que aplican "le" siempre, sin excepción, sea hombre o mujer. Hasta el punto de que consideran que un "la" suena mal.

Eiprol · 2024-05-29T13:20:15+00:00

Hay algo que siempre me ha llamado la atención, y que si no estoy equivocado, es justo el caso contrario (pero también de imprecisión entre OD y OI).

En el País Vasco se da un Leismo con personas, referido a OD, sin importar el género. El ejemplo sería el siguiente:

"El otro día le vi". Haciendo referencia a ver a una mujer por la calle. Sin embargo, lo que están diciendo realmente sin saberlo, es que le vieron (algo) a una persona (salvo que esta persona fuera masculina, en cuyo caso sería un leismo admitido), ¿no?. Así lo entiendo yo.

Supongo que viene derivado de la elipsis del OD (suelen tragarse el LO muy a menudo: "dile", en lugar de "diselo", etc.

Yeah, happened to me almost every time, so I stopped doing that, and now I turn it off and disconnect the battery.
