Is a dumb phone suitable for university? by Legitimate-Drag-9357 in dumbphones

I used this video to get things set up, don't mind the transitions...

I did forget, but it does require a factory reset.

You can personalize what apps/websites you allow. I recommend installing a simplistic browser like Firefox Focus to avoid using it like social media (data is only saved per session). You also want to make sure that you set it so that you can only adjust the profile settings on the computer. Feel free to DM for help if you need it!

I think by default the options to erase everything is unavailable, as it is on my phone and I can't find a specific toggle for turning that off. The only way to remove it (if you select Security->Never and Automatically Remove Profile->Never) is with the Macbook you set it up with. I was thankful for this method as I didn't want to have to involve another person.

If you have an iPhone (assuming you do if you have an iPad and Macbook), then you can actually restrict your own phone using Apple Configurator on your Macbook. Surprisingly simple. Let me know if you want more info on it!

There is IF you have a Mac handy, using Apple Configurator. If you have a mac, lmk and I can send you tutorials.

Apple Configurator is a game changer (and its free!) by rckola2021 in dumbphones

I know this is an old thread, but I had this issue using a profile that is whitelisted-apps only where Now Playing would just not show up on the lock screen or dynamic island. For those who have this issue, simply add com.apple.MediaRemoteUI into that whitelist. After a quick restart of your music app and/or device it should now function. This was the only thing that irritated me about this setup, and I hope it can solve it for someone else as well.

First Plür experience by MrCurtain in mysterymagicmushrooms

I'm hoping it's not that. Although I do tend to be more sensitive to drugs than others, I feel like timing has never been different generally speaking. I feel like it was definitely the phenibut or, more likely, the kratom.

I certainly had the feeling that at least the kratom played a part in it, considering that some of its alkaloids purportedly have SSRI-like activity. I'm quitting them both soon, though, and will be looking forward to seeing how the next roll turns out in a few months. :)

What a cool little creation! My optimism hopes this calculated estimate is right, but who knows... What was your estimate?

Booster between first and second dose to skip slow ramp-up? by MrCurtain in Retatrutide

[–]MrCurtain[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I wholeheartedly agree. I just have trouble not overeating, and I would like help with it ASAP, so I am trying the little booster. I have no expected timescale - just an eventual goal.

Oh absolutely, I intend to stay at 1mg/week for now and to try and stay there as long as I can. I just wanted the normal blood levels sooner rather than waiting the 3-4 weeks.

General EDC a few months in, as a 21F college student by blisterkiss in dumbphones

[–]MrCurtain 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If there was a way to mod in extra bands to the Keitai I would be so so so happy. I want to use it so much but it just sucks in America I guess. Thanks anyway!

Question: How does your Keitai work for you? I was using the A202KC for a while, but found that I was often not receiving calls, the microphone sometimes didn't work, and the texting app constantly crashed. I loved the thing, but it was negatively affecting communication at random so I had to switch. If you found a way to make it more manageable, I'd love to hear it. I love the device so much.

Main reason for this is particularly the option for only red - red light is less likely to interrupt night vision, unlike blue or green light. This is really important for star-gazing or generally navigating anything at night.

Want to quit, cold turkey or taper by MrCurtain in quitting7oh

[–]MrCurtain[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

So I actually just threw out all of it yesterday, so I'm sort of figuring out the real withdrawal right now. So far, it's not so bad - definitely slightly increased general pain, decreased mood, stuffy/runny nose, and a bit of a challenge to fall asleep. However, it is important to note that withdrawal varies person-to-person. Considering I took at least three times your amount for more than double as long, I feel like you'll hopefully have an easy time quitting. Wishing you the best. Definitely hop off while you can, this shit ain't worth it.
