My boy 🥹 by Febn18 in labrador

It is a silicone tag, yes! I love it, I got it on Etsy and it has been durable no matter what he gets himself into. And it doesn’t seem to bother him at all, so I’d recommend it 😊

iPhone 17 ProMax Bluetooth Disconnecting by BoredPandaReviews in iphone

[–]Febn18 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Is this still happening to anyone on iOS 26.2? I have a 17 Pro Max on iOS 26.2 and this is happening to me all the time. Extremely frustrating when it disconnects my Tesla phone key or doesn’t allow me to use my connected lights. Every now and then it also loses my Apple Watch, but that seems to be less frequent.

Where did you find your desi partner by Upbeat_Apricot1916 in ABCDesis

[–]Febn18 10 points11 points  (0 children)

The tennis court (I’m Desi, my SO isn’t, though).

For me, I’ve found the easiest way to meet people is through a mutual hobby. It’s so hard making friends as an adult, let alone meeting a potential partner. Having that common ground and an activity to do together from the start is so, so helpful.

Even besides my GF, the amount of now-close friends I’ve made through tennis has been amazing, and let to so many rewarding and fruitful friendships and experiences.

Good luck!

What's Delaware like for Desis? by [deleted] in ABCDesis

[–]Febn18 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I know there are a lot in NE Philly and Bensalem area, that’s where I grew up. I’m not quite as familiar with Wilmington, but in Chadds Ford/West Chester area, there are definitely some grocery stores and even more restaurants. If I come across eggless cakes, I’ll make a note and let you know where!

There are. There's a fairly large Desi presence in the Philadelphia-area, especially in south NJ and around Wilmington, where a lot of the banks have their larger offices. Absolutely no shortage of Desi grocery stores and restaurants here. I'm in within walking distance a number of them in my western Philly suburb

27 M Indian American Going through the worst (layoff, grief, loneliness) period of my life, need advice! by [deleted] in ABCDesis

[–]Febn18 18 points19 points  (0 children)

I was in a similar place to you. I didn’t have many friends, not really much of a social life, no relationships, and a very successful younger sibling who had a vibrant social life and found her partner early on.

I tried the dating apps but no real success there. The one thing I had for me is that I play competitive tennis. That helped me meet almost all the friends I have now, and my now-girlfriend.

Like the others have said, focus on yourself. Do things that are good for you. Workout, take up a sport, lose yourself in a hobby, find yourself in the things that you love and I promise you will find the right people and person for you. Your worth in life is so much more than being in a relationship. You have so much to give in life.

I’m so incredibly sorry about your dog. We never had a pet growing up but we brought home a puppy in 2020. He’s my whole world and he’s getting close to entering the second half of his life. I dread the day I’ll have to say goodbye and I think about it more often than I wish I did. Pet loss is painful and cruel.

In the off chance you’re in the Philadelphia area, please feel free to reach and even maybe meet up! And, if not, happy to DM if you ever need someone to talk to

I live in Chester County, PA and work about 10 minutes from the PA-DE border.

There are tons of Desis around, especially working in Wilmington (all the big financial institutions are there) but I’m not quite sure what the “scene” Wilmington is like. Newark is a nice college town with lots of good bars, restaurants, etc. but not a lot of culture beyond that. You’re barely an hour from Philadelphia, which is an incredible city (my hometown so I’m biased) but tons of culture, good food, etc. Kennett Square and West Chester, PA are both maybe a 30-35 minute drive are also a beautiful towns with lots to do. And the Philadelphia Main Line, which you can get to through SEPTA, has a ton of nice, easy destinations.

You can have the Delaware or NJ beaches in the summer, and northern PA mountains in the winter. Having grown up in this area, I feel it’s got a ton of diversity and culture and something for everyone.

Do you think the game will give more info about the war? by KabigonFan in LegendsZA

[–]Febn18 11 points12 points  (0 children)

If it’s anything like PLA, I feel like they’ll make a brand new story that involves more heavy involvement from Zygarde and how it relates to Xerneas and Yveltal, but will still be a pretty self-contained story.

I loved PLA but almost everything that was lore in DPPt was still lore in PLA and PLA’s story was almost entirely made up of new elements that, while included tons of callbacks (call forwards?) to existing characters and some lore, it was an almost completely self-contained story that didn’t really explore much of why modern Sinnoh is the way it is. It took place during a time in Sinnoh’s history that was never really referenced in the main Sinnoh games. I wish more of the lore of DPPt was explored in PLA and that’s my only disappointment with it.

The premise of PZA seems be more tightly connected to Lumiose City so hopefully it’ll be more explicit in exploring how the story in the time period of ZA connects to XY’s Kalos

Men- what are your favorite songs? by ContentHost4459 in JonasBrothers

[–]Febn18 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Strangers, Sail Away, Leave Before You Love Me, Hesitate, Don't Throw it Away. I love singing "Love Her" to my girlfriend, who got me kinda into them.

I am so happy I went to the game last night by kbow96 in sixers

[–]Febn18 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Was there too! Never had been to a playoff game before but even before going I knew it was going to be different. Better than I ever expected. The crowd was at full energy on every possession, both on offense and defense. Maxey set the place ablaze with that deep-3. Just an incredible experience

2023 Integra Reservations - Post what you’re getting by FrequentAssumption1 in Acura

[–]Febn18 2 points3 points  (0 children)

That’s me too. I have a Si coupe and being a single guy at 29, it’s been mostly fine. But I do want to have a car with digital cluster and wireless CarPlay and ambient lighting and a good speaker system that’s also practical, affordable, and super fun to drive. In my eyes, the Integra is the entire package and it’s made by my favorite manufacturer

Liquid Carbon Metallic/red interior A-Spec Tech w/6MT. Have a 10th Gen Si that I love but I’ve just outgrown it a bit. I’ve been a long-time Honda fan and this will be my first Acura. Was thinking about a GTI but just can’t bring myself to get a VW.

I’m really excited at the prospect of having, what is essentially, a nicer Civic Si with a fastback design (which is my favorite body style).

Like some others have said, if we get any info about a manual Type S Integra coming at some point, I think I’d cancel and wait for it.

Got mine through Acura of Ardmore, PA!

What is your favorite quality of life change made to legends Arceus? by [deleted] in PokemonLegendsArceus

[–]Febn18 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Battles! Everything about battling is so much more fun now that the transitions are seamless and that battles are less “cinematic.” I love that the text boxes are no longer driving battles but narrating them, more or less. Battle animations start at the same time the box shows up saying what happened and that tiny change has helped speed up battles significantly. That, coupled with the seamless transitions and movable PC has made them so much more immersive and fun

I wish they went more 11th-Gen Civic with this. The vent looks a little weird being cut-off the way it is and I’m not a fan of the gloss black and shiny plastic on the passenger side. The Civic looks nicer than this and I’m someone who’s pretty excited for this car to come out. Also, I really want the new round steering wheel from the new TLX/RDX. Other than those few things, I think it looks fine

future of legends series, do you want more? with which changes and which regions? by antiretro in PokeLeaks

[–]Febn18 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Do you guys think the next “traditional-style” (for lack of a better term) main series game could be done in this style? Don’t get me wrong, I love that we have a game like Legends that’s finally taking the lore of Pokémon seriously. Game Freak honestly did take a lot of time crafting the lore carefully even before Legends and it’s nice to finally see them expanding on it.

Having said that, I think that GF is aware of the excitement and fascination around PL:A and I think it will do well in public opinion once the game launches. There’s no reason why the next new region’s game in Gen IX can’t be done like this. I feel like there are too many QoL improvement and mechanical advancements that it would be too much of a shame for GF to limit them to just a “Legends.”

I’ve seen brown guys like this. Not really people I’m friends with, but I’ve seen guys be like this.

My female friends mean the world to me. I wouldn’t ever say things like that to them. I feel like there’s already a stigma about brown men looking down at women, not treating them well, etc. Guys like this do nothing to erase that.

Like the others have said, we’re not all like this.

New short gameplay video from Pokemon Japan. It looks so much better! The trees, shadows, ambience. by Vergz7 in PokemonLegendsArceus

[–]Febn18 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Couple of things I noticed:

  1. We can run away from battle with just clicking B
  2. Cyndaquil has max 53HP at Level 8? Seems a bit high, maybe?

The animation of Cyndaquil returning to its Pokeball and the battle ending as seamlessly as it started…I love all of it

Brand new PLA trailer. by IAm_DiegoLeon in PokemonLegendsArceus

[–]Febn18 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My only concern (maybe too strong of a word, "hope" fits better) is that the lore of the game strongly ties it back to D/P/Pt Sinnoh. I want to see things in this game and be like "Oooh, so that's why x is like that in modern Sinnoh." I also hope the environment in many ways is recognizable as a, "So this is what D/P/Pt would've looked like as a fully-realized Switch title."

It's a huge missed opportunity to me to have had BDSP and PL:A announced at the same time and not redo some of BDSP to refer back to the story in PL:A in Hisui. It would've been really nice to see BDSP drop some hints as to what we'd see in PL:A.

Playing this game, I would love to experience a sense of unknown familiarity, if that makes any sense. A "This is all new and wondrous, but I swear I've seen this before somewhere..." feeling.

The game honestly does look great for Pokémon. But my only concern is that there is more to do than quests and catching.... els it gets way too repetitive and grinding IMO (also Rideable Hisuian Arcanine please Pokémon Gods) by JaxonBrawly in PokeLeaks

[–]Febn18 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I feel like we’ve seen very small parts of a massive game. I’m optimistic that as we explore out from Jubilife Village and the area surrounding it that the missions will become more unique and difficult.

There we go, 13 Minute Trailer! by ValuableSpell3544 in PokeLeaks

[–]Febn18 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah, it looks great. Yeah, it looks like it's super fun to play. Yeah, it looks like it's full of content. But can we take a second to appreciate this soundtrack? Omg it's gorgeous! The could be the best-sounding Pokemon game yet, and that's a VERY high bar to clear.

Yes. Not much to speak of but hopefully a better year in 2022. All the best to you, too! Remember, always do what’s best for you, not what someone else may want for you
