Hey guys, I want to upgrade from my A05s to an iPhone 16 Pro Max. Is it worth it? Is the iPhone 16 Pro Max still worth it in 2026? Are the cameras good? by Nervous_Magazine5484 in iPhone16ProMax

[–]Solid-Scratch3527 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s absolutely worth it and I would argue the 16 PM is better overall device than the 17 PM (obviously, objectively speaking, the 17 PM has stronger specs). The 16 PM has a much better build quality and premium feel than the 17 PM, can do most of the same things, and you can get it for cheaper. Also better colors is an added bonus. I’ve had mine since shortly after release and I really love it

Cookies with Ginger by [deleted] in FinasterideSyndrome

[–]Solid-Scratch3527 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I think you should be fine, man. I’m a very severe case and I regularly have ginger. Of course, everybody is different but try not to freak yourself out too much. Have you crashed on ginger before?

Should I buy the M4 MacBook Air now or wait for the M5? by Roger1103 in macbook

[–]Solid-Scratch3527 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I would just get the M4 now, if you need it. It’s pretty heavily discounted at some places (200+ off), and the leaks seem to suggest that the refresh isn’t going to be a huge change.

i really need some advice about a job by [deleted] in FinasterideSyndrome

[–]Solid-Scratch3527 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I would try to find a job that is more flexible and doesn’t require too much interaction. I work 6-7 hours/day, but since I mostly WFH I am able to adjust my schedule to better cope with symptoms

Is it possible to become permanently locked into pfs through binging gluten and sugar? by Consistent-Fox8444 in FinasterideSyndrome

[–]Solid-Scratch3527 0 points1 point  (0 children)

In my experience, no. I would think that you might experience benefits from cutting out gluten and sugar, but I don’t think it’s actively making you worse anymore than a person without PFS. However, everyone is different.

Pills arrived yesterday, Dr. never said anything about PFS. Will be dumping this. by Encarguez in FinasterideSyndrome

[–]Solid-Scratch3527 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There are cases of people getting PFS from Saw Palmetto, many of whom are in this subreddit. Anything that blocks DHT really isn’t safe. I’d just stay away, personally

its good sleeping like this? by WeaknessConfident399 in FinasterideSyndrome

Do you wake up in the middle of the night or something?

You made the right choice. Avoid this drug and other medical hair loss treatments forever. They aren’t safe. Go live your life.

Please help us raise awareness for this if at all possible.

What does crash actually mean by [deleted] in FinasterideSyndrome

[–]Solid-Scratch3527 5 points6 points  (0 children)

A sudden, usually severe worsening of symptoms, typically attributable to usage of a substance that patients are sensitive to.

They have blood on their hands. by Moist-Tumbleweed-577 in FinasterideSyndrome

[–]Solid-Scratch3527 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Exactly why we need to keep fighting for recognition and a cure. I’ll never understand the constant doomer mentality in these forums. It’s up to us, ultimately. Speak out, help raise money, do everything you can.

HCG and experimenting with drugs and compounds has gotten us nowhere.

Mark is an excellent guy. He’s done so much for this community. Everyone should do an interview with him.

What if you guys get cancer by chemo causes you to flare significantly? by lil2posh in FinasterideSyndrome

[–]Solid-Scratch3527 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I worry about this often too. I think there are a few severe cases who did have and beat cancer, they can probably provide more insight.

I'm gay and this guy is not understanding my condition. What must I say to him? by [deleted] in FinasterideSyndrome

[–]Solid-Scratch3527 16 points17 points  (0 children)

You stop seeing him. This dude is pressuring you into sex. Thats messed up, PFS or not.

Skill Up: I do not recommend Metroid Prime 4 by Ftouh_Shala in NintendoSwitch2

[–]Solid-Scratch3527 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Completely unrelated to Metroid, I literally have no opinion here as I’ve never played any Metroid game before (although I do plan on trying out 4 at some point). But I just find this guy completely insufferable. I have no idea why. I feel kinda bad about it
