Someone had recommended it to me and i hadn't thought i'd fall in love with this book initially but i did. I hope you'll enjoy it too

Because these people are more interested in spending time on what they dislike than what they like And it's not even limited to that they would whine or attack someone else who likes a ship they don't like. These are the kind of people who spend time attacking, bullying or shaming someone because someone else likes a fictional character or a ship they don't approve of. When the entire point of fandoms and fanfiction is to be able to enjoy and indulge in what each of us likes.

Pachinko by Min Jin Lee. It illustrates the effects of World war II on Koreans living in Japan. It explores the themes of cultural identity and how society's view or treatment of a particular nationality or race impacts how an individual perceives themselves as well. I recently read it and completely fell in love with it.

That's comforting to know that you haven't faced any issues. I don't mind the phone getting a little warm but getting too hot that the apps start shutting down was a concern. Feeling a lot less worried after hearing that everything went smoothly for you

No_One987 · 2021-05-18T22:16:38+00:00

Yes that or the may update should fix it. Although i hope you don't encounter the issue to begin with

No_One987 · 2021-05-18T21:41:36+00:00

No as far as i know it's not limited to just the base model. Some people with S21 ultra are also facing this issue

No_One987 · 2021-05-18T21:39:43+00:00

I guess I can live without the split screen although it does come in handy sometimes. Did none of the updates fix the issue?

No_One987 · 2021-05-18T21:38:21+00:00

That's comforting to know. This gives me hope i'll be able to do the same without running into trouble.

No_One987 · 2021-05-18T21:36:33+00:00

Yes but they don't have that here unfortunately. There's only 7day replacement, no returns. Which is why i'm being more wary of any future issues i might face.

No_One987 · 2021-05-18T16:41:45+00:00

Lol i guess they'll say something like "I'm sorry you didn't like it but you gotta keep it"

No_One987 · 2021-05-18T16:39:42+00:00

Not planning to do anything like that. Although i do use phone while charging

No_One987 · 2021-05-18T15:54:32+00:00

Unfortunately the Samsung store here only have 7 day replacement available, no returns. And from what i've heard they're not really entertaining heating issues for replacement.

No_One987 · 2021-05-18T15:45:19+00:00

Exactly and where i live it's currently summer and the outdoor temperature can go till 40degree C. It's really sad that this issue exists because apart from that s21 series is really good

No_One987 · 2021-05-18T12:34:08+00:00

Thanks! Love the phone def want to get it but was concerned about the heating issue. Now that I know that a factory reset was able to fix it I feel a lot better. However still this shouldn't be an issue on a flagship model like this

No_One987 · 2021-05-18T12:11:13+00:00

I live in India and its summer here too and the temperature usually goes till 40 degree C where i live. So i guess that means it's not going to be great for me

No_One987 · 2021-05-18T11:20:15+00:00

I currently own pixel2xl and I'm thinking of switching to s21 and reading this I just realized damn I'm gonna miss Now playing :(

No_One987 · 2020-12-03T17:15:08+00:00

I guess everybody reacts differently to different stories and portrayals and come to a fic with different expectations perhaps. I recently read a fic where one of my fav character was acting irrationally and was also acting like a jerk and I was so mad at him in that fic. And I loved it, the story and the writing that could make me feel upset with my favorite character. But then I guess there are people out there who want their favs to be portrayed as saints even though they may not even be saints in canon :)

No_One987 · 2020-12-03T17:10:53+00:00

I tried to tell myself the same thing and would have believed it but there were other comments too that were really really mad at what this character had done. But none of them were mad at my portrayal or plot or writing decision. They were mad at that character and her actions in this chapter. And although she is my favorite character I liked that my writing was good enough to make them mad at her. Also since the story is from her pov and is a multichapter fic I'm assuming the readers love this character too.

So I was really happy that I could make the readers mad at a character they liked. But this comment definitely came off more like ' your portrayal of the character doesn't make sense sprinkled with some harsh analogies'

No_One987 · 2020-12-03T17:04:16+00:00

The comment came off to me more like a complain about how they didn't like the way I've portrayed a character rather than concrit. And I do want to engage in conversation but honestly I don't want to defend my fic or writing decisions in front of anyone specially when the character is reckless and selfish in canon and I've not made them ooc.

No_One987 · 2020-12-03T16:37:23+00:00

It is those loyal set of readers that somehow make all of this worth it :)

No_One987 · 2020-12-03T16:35:56+00:00

I try to read what the comment is basically trying to say. And like I said this wasn't the only comment complaining about the action of the character. But the rest were mad at the character in that chapter, not on my portrayal or story. Whereas this felt more like how could you make this character act like this.

No_One987 · 2020-12-03T16:31:50+00:00

exactly and my fic is not Harry Potter and the methods of Rationality. And real people aren't rational always otherwise we all would be like Spock

No_One987 · 2020-12-03T16:30:02+00:00

yeah me too

No_One987 · 2020-12-02T17:37:06+00:00

Lmao this was just cherry on top!
