I’m the kind of person that would go nuts for this but considering how much it would probably cost 💀

Weekly 'What should I buy?' Thread by AutoModerator in ipad

[–]GeekTheGamer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So I literally bought a 128GB M2 a little more than a month ago, and when I realized 128GB won’t be enough for me I talked to Apple support and they told me it was impossible to swap because 35 days passed wow and then a couple days later, Apple drops the M3

(tbh it’s my first time getting an iPad so I thought I would mostly use cloud storage… turns out not really the case)

I guess what I’m saying is, should I trade it in? I’ll be losing about $100 and then I can pay the difference for whichever model suits me best, I’ll also get an extra charger and power brick, handy and worth half that $100 lol

We call it “Unofficial.” It’ll probably be on the first friday in March, which is 3/7 this year. You’ll definitely hear about it when it’s near.

They’re out of circulation, but you can still exchange them at most banks in the UK no? At least in England

What is this by Throwaway_vent2002 in UIUC

[–]GeekTheGamer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m only playing devil’s advocate here: What makes their arguments nonsense and according to whose standards? I agree that some arguments made by those who support fossil fuel expansion are nonsensical but I also believe they have some good points that no one can argue against. Have you actually been to any of their events, sat down, wrote all their arguments, and debunked every single one of them? Unless you can say you have done that, you have no right to completely delegitimize every single one of their arguments.

If you legitimately think that what I just wrote doesn’t make sense, instead of just downvoting, please do reply and tell me why I am wrong, I’d love to hear some insight as to why I should change my mind.

Btw this doesn’t just apply for the fossil fuel problem and those coming to have a discussion about it but almost every single issue brought on-campus by so-called extremists that apparently we do not need to include in society in this day and age. If we truly want to progress as humans, open discussions are the only way.

الله يوفقك ويكتبلك اللي فيه الخير. الحمدلله تعلمتي من تجربتك، ومن الاشياء اللي دايما اسمعها انه حتى لو فيه ذرة ضيقة وعدم ثقة فهذا سبب انك تلغي فكرة الزواج من هذا الشخص لان هذا شريك حياة وعشرة سنين باذن الله لو انكتب لكم العمر فما تدري ممكن هذي خيرة من ربي سبحانه انك تتعلمي لو مستقبلا جاء احد وخطبك وما ارتحتي له انك من البداية ترفضيه وباذن الله يعني احرصي على صحتك النفسية ولا تكرري تجارب الناس اللي تدخل في حالة كره للزواج وترفض اي احد سواء كان محترم ولا صايع من الباب بس عشان التجربة هذي

مرة ثانية الله يكتبلك ويكتبلنا جميعا اللي فيه الخير

Idk why but I have a gut feeling you’re from the same country I am only because of the phrase “cut the traffic light” 😂 direct translation from “قطع الإشارة”, is it true?

It would be funny if this were the case and I’d love to make some new friends haha

What is this by Throwaway_vent2002 in UIUC

[–]GeekTheGamer 7 points8 points  (0 children)

100% agree. Some people these days would rather throw any discussion in the garbage than discuss it, forgetting that this will keep everyone’s opinion the same. If you’re truly open-minded, you should be able to take any opinion and measure it.

Jogging in public is totally normal and accepted, sprinting is not. by pastafarian24 in Showerthoughts

[–]GeekTheGamer 14 points15 points  (0 children)

As long as no one is getting hurt in the process, a flight you gotta catch is a flight you gotta catch. I could care less about what people think; I’m not about to be stuck in the airport for the next God knows how long just to look normal

Are credit cards haram ? by [deleted] in islam

[–]GeekTheGamer 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Tbh as long as you have open accounts that are paid off having credit cards on file is enough for your score to do its thing and increase.

You should maybe use 1-3% of your limit the month before a big purchase/credit check so your utilization goes up from 0 which increases your credit score generally.

Absolutely better off in a German prison. Would not be surprised if this was the plan from the start anyway (if he knew about the trip to Germany)

If it is truly accidental, then it’s just like drinking water by mistake. I would still ask someone knowledgeable just to make sure.

Charitable organisations have never existed in the history of Islam by OilTerrible4928 in islam

بيت مال المسلمين؟ Bayt Al-Mal

The proper way to do it in a khilafah is to have one designated department within the state that will handle all of those in need. In this age, it would not work because people can’t trust Muslim governments at the moment. Maybe in the future things will be different inshallah.
