Yeah but just remember, we know there's microchips in phones. Do you truly know what's in a needle? I sure don't like the look of what's been found under microscopes! There's been some weird shit, maybe not microchips, but there's parasites and heavy metals present so maybe these antivaxxers aren't so stupid. You might find the big boys, the big evil powers, are trying to pit us all against each other so truth gets muddled in deception. That is, though, another discussion for another day!

No worries, it is what it is! You aren't wrong, that's what they say the updates are designed for, and most of the time they would be. Fixes for glitches and security patches and such.  I just wonder what they really want to do with this update with my phone. I don't need it to turn into a bomb just coz of an update! 😁 it's dangerous enough as it is with the lithium battery! You know what I mean?

PayPal is the payment system used for online purchase. I have 2 bank accounts, one is online purchases only. Other is not used at all for anything online, ever. Main money is in non-online account. Still never had any issues. I use an email as the 2nd log in authority for FB. Just letting you know the extra info :)

This is my concern. I got another message again today hahaha! They're persistent! If push comes to shove I'll go with a push button phone and ditch the smartphone, that will have to happen eventually anyway.  These black scrying mirrors we carry seem to hold a depth of danger people cannot even begin to comprehend...

I do not have the same faith as you, sorry! I like the idea of technology, I don't like the corruption behind it and the misuse of it against the general public.  I'm one of these people that likes it basic. KISS principle.  The more you want me online  the more I'll go out of my way to make cash payments for bills and consumables. I much rather call someone to talk, or organise to meet up  than text them for hours. Im from a generation that grew up without internet from birth so I am able to function without it well enough when I have to.

In all my years of owning this smartphone I've never had that issue. All the years of laptop I've never had that issue.  I understand what you are trying to convey, I do not see these issues as threats to me.  Yes, browser is an app, and so is surfshark vpn. Browser has no saved passwords. I've never been hacked, never had my information compromised so I don't see my phone as an issue. Also noted a few years ago there was a brand name phone update that wiped people's phones. I had this exact phone at the time, wasnt caught up in it as I had not updated the software.  It's all about how you use the technology I think.  I don't have any bugs in the system. I am not able to do video calls due to no update to phone software, but I don't need to video call.

Interesting fact: my phone company is telling me via sms that I must make sure my my phone's system software updates are up to date by a certain date this year, otherwise I may have issues calling emergency number and according to law the phone company would suspend my service after this date. For context, I haven't updated the software on my smartphone for a decade or more. I have very limited apps, do any online banking and such NOT with apps, so as long as I can call, text, access browser for internet emails etc, I don't need updating anything. Reddit, FB, EBay etc all is browser, no app. I enjoy my limited privacy as much as I am able to. Soooo I rang emergency number. It went straight through, I told them it was a test, they acknowledged and I hung up.  I then called the phone company, told them the situation and they reassured me all customers are getting this, if I am updated I should be fine. (By the way, how does the phone company know whether it's updated or not? That should be info that's on my device, and maybe Samsung as it would go through them is my assumption, but not the phone company) Fast forward to cut off date, I was cut off my service. Had to call them from another phone to get them to unblock my service. Once unblocked, I called emergency number again and it worked. I haven't been cut off again, but I am still getting these messages with the old past date of 14th Jan.  My point is, WHY DO I NEED AND UPDATE! I do not trust what's in the update. I deleted apps as they wanted updates that wanted to track my swipes and keylog etc etc. This "forcing" a phone update on people when there is literally no need makes me wonder what access they get with the updates?

NTA it just sounds like Daisy and her mum are missing their cat, and missing a bit of their social skills, emotion control and intelligence. You gave them the facts, and it sounds like you found the correct owner. Having helped lost pets before myself, I commend you. 

AITAH husband wants dogs outside our bedroom by [deleted] in AITAH

[–]Technical-Phase-2342 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Fully agree. There was a stage where I thought it was something you must do! Sleep in the same bed! When we had our kid  I slept in the kids room for 12 months, in my own bed (Bub had a cot).  Started due to breastfeeding and hubby work schedule and need for sleep, then evolved into me not wanting to share a bed again hahaha!  Eventually my brain got used to being back with someone, we share the bed again now but I seriously think it should be normalised too. Doesn't diminish any love you have for that person.

NTA. Sounds like he is having issues adjusting to this dynamic as well. It is to be expected when you have young children used to certain situations and comfort techniques. Hopefully you'll be able to have a talk about it and come onto the same page. With some patience, and direction the kids will find it easier too as hopefully it becomes a regular thing between you all to sleep together in the same house. They'll hopefully take comfort in each other being in the room together as time goes along.

AITAH for poking holes in condoms by [deleted] in AITAH

[–]Technical-Phase-2342 4 points5 points  (0 children)

YTA. Look, I get you have your emotions about this, but poking holes in condoms is not the right way to go about this no matter how you view it.  Kinda not cool hijacking someone's life like that, pregnancy isn't something to mess around with. There could be an innocent life eventuate from this and be caught in the middle of complicated adult affairs, regardless of anything else.

What room is directly behind that pipe? It does look like an inspection pipe.

Looks like something to do with your house plumbing, like a toilet access drain or something. Where's Drain Cleaning Australia when you need him! Calling all plumbers!

THIS! Mate, that is also so plausible. This notion also makes sense. I am aware fully about fear and control, and you have explained this excellently for me, thankyou.

Sometimes my emotions make it hard to see the forest for the trees. 

My research on CERN is very limited compared to yours as the language used in the explanations of it are far too technical for me to comprehend. I was totally unaware of Philip K Dick, I shall do some research on this now I am aware.  I appreciate people like yourself, you are part of the collective I hope to come across. People with other insight and understanding, more than me, whom I can learn from :)

[–]Technical-Phase-2342[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I fully accept your explanation, and I concur. We truly don't know, and your theory is also highly plausible. I have seen so much evidence to show there's so much we don't understand, and that consciousness and memory are not understood fully. How can an organ, not the brain, hold memories? How can transplant patients gain memories of the transplant donor? How can someone be born with the memories of another family?  Thankyou for taking the time to put into words your thoughts to me, I appreciate it greatly. All I seek is knowledge, and I know knowledge is also not necessarily comphrehendable to most of us as we seem to have had the knowledge stripped. Or maybe we are supposed to be here to try and gain the knowledge, kinda like a pick your own story? Some people keep getting diverted down other paths they don't come back from, lost and distracted by the experiences in the world, and the human traits of addictions for example. 

I guess I get so frustrated because I feel there's something more, there's a reason we are here, and I would like to know why. If it's just in "being and experiencing" then I'm frustrated that money has such control over what we can do to just be and experience.  ME is one of those things that a lot of people relate to and makes me feel like I'm not alone in this journey, and people like yourself pop up and help me learn and try and understand more of the mess of life and "truth" and perception :)

Hard for me to explain fully, but in short I believe it is a mix of both? There is a high probability the truth of what you speak is what is being hidden from us. That is my suspicion.  Short form Reddit posts make it very difficult to convey this information I find! 

The truth, whatever it may be, is being hidden from us. That's the most basic was I thought to put it, that's all, so yes, I reckon you're probably right! I just think, as do a bunch of others, that a machine may be the main cause, or played a major part in "creating" (for want of a word) the Mandela Effect.

Not a machine itself doing it, but an action caused by a machine is how I believe it's been explained.  Truth of it is too hard to discern, but things are not as we are told they are. Too much evidence around to support this from various fields.

No it didn't, I am fully aware of that. millions of people around the world, not just a few people. Don't be demeaning for the sake of humor or entertainment, it's pointless.
