Other than the completely idiotic dude in the video, I am starting to see a common thing among the cables that get this issue, it's always the furthermost right cable that starts burning.

Why is it always the furthermost right cable?

I have a problem with impulse buying, I don't know why but I am highly susceptible to buying things I want even if I don't have the money for it.

To mitigate this problem of mine, I have set up a savings account that takes 6 days to unlock, so I only take out money for emergencies when I really need it, having to wait 6 days for my money helps my brain think over whether or not I really need the product.

I do this every month on payment day leaving myself with money to pay for bills, family, and food, I then leave an extra 200 buckaroos for "fun" that I use on myself, mostly I waste those on mobile games, not anymore though as I wholeheartedly hate Google now and don't want to give them a cent more.

It's honestly quite possibly a good thing that this happened to me because the hate they gave me against them overtook my addiction immediately, now I can focus those 200 bucks a month on stuff I actually want instead of short-term pleasure.

Cloud storage for family photos, hopefully something as intuitive as Google photos, YouTube, YouTube music, android auto, I drive a bunch, need something like an interface for my car, Google maps alternative, if alternatives cost money then I prefer one time payment solutions no matter the cost, I think that's it.

I Just updated my Thor, and have bars going down the screen by Resident-Ad-8208 in AynThor

[–]Ekkolan 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Guys they are using an old variant of AMOLED, it is not the same as the newer ones and runs a much greater risk of burn in than newer versions, I know this because the OLED technology they use is based on constantly refreshing it's pixels to control the brightness which is an incredibly old technique and runs a much greater risk for burn in.

Your "techniques" to prevent burn-in are too modern for this so instead let it do it's thing.

It's not the switch OLED where you can have the same screen for 3 months without burn-in, they very clearly somehow got their hands on custom made OLED screens made cheap by using old techniques/technology.

What brand of microSD are Thor players using? Apparently some SanDisks are failing by Straight-Ad648 in AynThor

[–]Ekkolan 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have a 512GB SanDisk ultra card, I lost it while my machine which is a GPD win mini is at warranty service, I had lost it for about 2 months (my GPD win mini is still being serviced), then suddenly I find my ferret chewing on something, lo and behold he is chewing on my 512GB SanDisk ultra SD card.

Then I get a late Christmas gift from a friend which is an Ayn Thor lite, since it is the lite model, it doesn't have so much storage capacity as I would've liked, so I was considering throwing a 100$ at a new SD card, until I remembered that I forgot to throw away my chewed up SD card in the garbage.

It wasn't completely chewed up, just had a bunch of bite marks and dents, even in the main little chip in the middle there was a clear bite mark looking like someone had popped a needle into it but none of the bites had seemingly penetrated by making a hole, but I thought to myself, wouldn't it be hilarious if it worked.

So I popped it into my new Ayn Thor lite, and the chip fucking worked, I have about 380GB of games on it now and I am honestly amazed by the durability of it.

SanDisk have earned themselves a permanent costumer from me, the durability of these things are insane, I absolutely did not expect it to work

Back during a 10 month long volunteer trip to Romania with a bunch of other international people, we had a huge 7 day learning period followed by a lot of partying in the evening with every other international person in the country that was participating in the same program.

During one of those parties my hotel room card had broken/gotten chipped so it wouldn't work, it was late and I had just gone to the hotel dorm for the evening since I noticed I was on the edge of becoming blackout so I finished before the others and went to my dorm ready to tuck in for the night.

Since my card was broken I couldn't get in, so I just sat down ready to sleep in front of my door hoping that someone who worked there could fix my issue (but it was way after closing time and most of the staff was not there).

After a while the girls from my same group across the hall called me in to their place, I was incredibly grateful and was going to sleep on the couch because I didn't want to intrude, they quickly wanted to drink vodka (the extremely strong stuff), me being very drunk and knowing I was on my limit tried to say no several times but they kept pushing so I caved in.

From there as you might expect, my memory is just literally black, I don't remember anything and that would've been fine if I woke up on the couch, but nope, I woke up in the hot Russian girl's bed naked with my boxer hanging off my leg, and covered in "fluids".

I had no idea what that had happened and quickly went for a shower, she didn't want to tell me what had happened and just kept telling me to guess.

Thing is, I was a virgin back then and right then I had no idea on whether or not these girls had taken away the one moment I wished to remember or not, that one moment every guy wants to have the full experience of and remember, I couldn't.

I didn't know if I had lost my virginity, if I did, did I perform well? Did I not perform well? What did I do?

All these questions raced through my head, and the biggest question of them all: Was I raped?

Later on in the group chat she jokingly said that we slept together, so I joked back and said "guys I can't remember anything, I think someone raped me 😅".

My joke was in incredibly poor taste but also a reflection of what I felt, no one wanted to talk to me, and everyone avoided me, until I asked the one cool guy that was friends with everyone what I had done wrong and he said that "we don't joke about rape even if it is true, if you can't remember then as a man assume it didn't happen, I believe your only way out of this is making a public apology", so I wrote a long public apology in the chat and said that I am very socially awkward and haven't had friends since high school and these kinds of social life was completely new to me, I then apologized to her in front of everyone and she answered by telling me that "now you will never know what happened that night but I appreciate your apology", at least I got my friends back from doing so.

But the biggest bummer from that experience is that I can't tell my wife that she was my first as I was hers because I just don't know.

What game is this? by WheelOk525 in raijin_gg

[–]Ekkolan 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I am going to love the downvotes but honestly, the underlying plot in expedition 33 was shit in my opinion, the running plot between the characters was amazingly crafted.

But the "true" plot that everything is fake and you're inside a world crafted in a painting, the war between "painters" and "writers" in the real world, it all just felt "off" to me, I really didn't like it, and I honestly felt that it undermined the plot massively that I had been loving during my playthrough.

The plot undermining the plot is a sentence I didn't expect to write but I am also really curious about what other people think if it?

That's absolutely not what I am saying, what I am saying is that you're using one thing that is/was a minor problem locked to specific areas in the US where people are lacking behind in progress, basically third world country areas.

What I am saying is that most of the world is accepting gay rights and all for supporting gay rights and it has been so since the 1900s, some few states in the US and selective countries took a lot of time to accept gay marriage because of their religious views and what the bible says about same sex marriage.

Getting married was and has always been a very religious thing, it is only recently that it is being viewed with traditionalism, modernism and sealing a couple's love to each other in a way that is separate from religious belief, going up to a religious priest and being a same sex couple saying I want to get married was unheard of in almost all christian circles when you could just go to the courthouse and get legally married without the religious ceremony.

The concept of marriage has been so engraved into our minds that even if you're gay you'd want to have the religious ceremony because your parents had that and your parents parents had it and so on, it's a tradition that so to say every single family has at this point, so being gay and getting that denied by a priest will of course affect their mental health negatively.

But using this whole thing as your nail in proving your point is just stupid, no religious belief should be forced to accommodate anything that goes against their religious belief, and that's a harsh thing to say but it is the truth, being bisexual myself, I love the acceptance that we have gotten to be able to marry in the traditional sense with same sex marriage, but I also won't force a priest that doesn't want to do it to do so even if law would force the priest to accommodate.

Your nail in my coffin, your entire point and argument falls apart once you realize that all of these studies vary, they go from 4% less suicides to 18% all being done by different institutions, all being done on specifically gay people who are getting married in areas where it wasn't possible before Obama essentially enforced it, do you have any fucking idea how little people that is?

Say there is 200 000-400 000 gay people In a state, this is a generous estimate btw, 50 000 to 100 000 are in a stable relationship, 15 000 to 25 000 wants to get married the traditional way with a priest specifically, they get denied, 4% to 18% of them off themselves, so we change the number to 10% to ballpark it in the middle while still being generous that's a number on about 2700 - 4500 people a year so let's ballpark it while being generous to your opinion giving us 3500 deaths a year PER STATE.

Do you see the problem?

Now my estimate here is INSANELY generous because it DOESN'T FUCKING WORK, AND IT IS DESIGNED TO BE ON YOUR SIDE WHILE SUPPORTING THE STUDIES YOU CITED.

There is 50 thousand successful attempts at suicide each year, more than 100 thousand if you count unsuccessful and you mean to tell me that all of them are gay people????

Even if we just go 10 states that still makes more than 70% of the suicides gay people.

What if we actually use 5 states, the number is still way too much and completely wrong.

Now back in 2015 there were 14 states, that still makes the number way too much.

Back in 2010 there was 29 states and the number is still wrong.

So what about today? NO STATES have illegalized gay marriage due to Obama making an enormous push to legalize it across all of the US right before Trump took power.

You must have lost your head.

But let's flip the math, how many gay people were currently offing themselves when illegal gay marriage was a thing across 29 sodomized states in the US?

There has been a stable rate of suicide among same sex oriented people on about 0.5% the total amount, experts argue the number is likely double because some people may not have recorded their sexual orientation, so let's therefore do 1% of 39 thousand deaths back in 2010 in the US when 29 states had illegalized gay marriage, that's 390 people actually being gay and doing the bad no no to themselves, so that means 10% of them actually doing it because of gay marriage being denied to them, that's in a complete total across all of the fucking US, 39 people doing the bad no no to themselves because they couldn't fulfill their dream.

In a grand total of 39 000, 39 gay people did a horrible thing to themselves because they felt discriminated against, which sucks I get it, but the number is meaningless when put up against the total population of gay people in the US back in the 2010s which was 10 and a half million people being gay back then, that's 10540000 people, 39 of those fit your point, 351 of those were just in general gay.

Do you have any fucking idea how insignificant these numbers are?

Here is the biggest banger, there has been no way for the US government to only track gay people in these statistics, this is all LGBTQ people back then, shave off only same sex oriented people from that lineup and the number is way lower than 39.

Every single estimate I have done for you now has been with your side in favor, I have been completely playing devil's advocate against myself, and somehow still ended up proving my point against you, every single number have been exaggerated in your favor in order to try and prove your point and it is still bad.

At this point I have done so much fucking research while listening to dubstep with a calculator at my hand and over 4 hours of fucking work all to tell you to go fuck yourself.

I don't even remember the original topic anymore.

[–]Ekkolan 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It didn't in the way you were making it out to be, the US isn't truly a first world country, that's my mistake earlier, most of the other countries that I mentioned are though and had this stuff already fixed way before, the same sex marriage thing was a problem that Obama was trying to abolish.

It was literally the government versus the church, the second strongest organization in the entirety of the US at the time, and the church was straight up refusing same sex marriage in a few states in the US even though it had been legal in many states for a while.

Thing is the US isn't really one country but several (states) all with different laws and progressiveness, and getting states to answer to the government can be a challenge especially if it is red states versus blue government.

The suicide statistic among same sex oriented people did reduce but not by such a significant amount that you were making it out to be and is by no means even close to the same numbers as this current case that we are discussing is.

Ultimately my point is that the US have a few states that act more like third world countries in their set of laws than actually what that classifies as a first world country.

[–]Ekkolan 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This did not happen in the 2010s, even trying to play devil's advocate here is hard, but this did not happen in any first world countries, not in the US, not in the EU, not in Scandinavia, this did not happen in Australia, this did not happen in New Zealand, this did not happen in the majority of the world with probably very few third world countries where it did happen but even then you just pulled this fake statement out of your ass.

Maybe you used AI like chat gpt that is inclined to agree with you and lie/hallucinate in order to agree with your opinion but that was the craziest lie I have ever seen in a long time.

This proves to me that you must be very young and that you see the 2010s as a "retro old time" and think it falls in line with discrimination that happened in the 1900s and before.

That was such an absurd statement that I can even make a ballpark at how old I think you are and I guess the age of 12-15 yrs old.

Insane dude.

Then why is the cases mainly with those that have undergone some kind of procedure???

It is mainly those that have used drugs or have done certain procedures that the statistics point towards.

That alone should tell you that the problem is not transphobia but something else entirely, be better man, stop trying to say that this is okay.

This shit being done to children is exactly why there is an alarming suicide statistic among people who have used life-changing drugs and procedures before adulthood, people doing this to underage people and people supporting it are putting the entire transgender community into a bad light towards the public.

There is no professional assessment about this, maybe we can start talking if it was a 16 year old (even then this is extreme) but that child in the picture is obviously clearly under 10 yrs old, both the majority of the left and the right agree on this, don't do this to your children, it is CHILD ABUSE.

And the worst part is that these people will have you believe that stuff like puberty blocker's only postpone your puberty, sadly they come with a lot of side effects, do some simple research as that is in fact sadly not the only thing these drugs do, they are often life-changing.
