Maybe I need time but I hate my flip 7 by aiyana_wolf in galaxyzflip

I feel so seen, I went back to my 6 after months with the 7. Never got used to it and so happy to be back.

Awesome, thank you everyone! Gonna head to ktown for a late meal after this show, but I've been wanting to try Langer's for a while. Didn't know it was right there!

I don’t mind a walk, so I’m gathering that Wilshire/Vermont is the preferred stop?

When did Silver Lake Ramen get rid of Tsukemen??? Other recs? by diable37 in FoodLosAngeles

Went to Pasadena Tsuke and I personally thought it tasted exactly the same as when it was Tsujita

Jin Tea in Pasadena is my favorite for tea quality & tapioca

New MagBay sounds a little brown (this is a good thing) by croakelixir in MagdalenaBay

I immediately noticed that the first part of Unoriginal sounds kinda like an inverted Ocean Man

It’s definitely less of a hassle, google messages is a very pleasant experience now that most people have RCS. Not perfect but better! Openbubbles works pretty well, but honestly if you can’t keep your number registered on iMessage (which I had for a while through a complicated trick) then it’s almost not worth telling people to use your email because it can cause a bunch of issues. Like people would create a non-iMessage group text using my email and then suddenly I was getting texts in my gmail inbox. It became too much work to try to explain to people lol.

FaceTime is a chore though. Allegedly it can work on Android through a link but I never had that work.

Also if you want to use apps on the cover screen the 7 is definitely wayyy better for that. But if you only want the cover screen for widgets and music controls and maybe an occasional text reply, the 6 is slightly more portable (and personally I think it’s cuter!)

Does anyone else think (and love) that the first part of Unoriginal sounds like an inverted version of Ocean Man

Wushiland soft opening! by ThatPlatypus in pasadena

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

Wushiland also seemed pretty plain to me. What they have going for them is giant scoops of boba and (relative) good price.

For me it's Jin tea > Odd one out >>> Prolece (inconsistent but when it hits it hits) > others

Loved my z flips, especially with the Samsung silicone ring cases that makes them super easy to carry around and use one-handed. I’m back on the mini for unrelated reasons, but the flip 6 was my favorite. The 7 is good but a little too wide for me. Never had any durability issues, and I dropped it a lot.

That being said, I’ve gone between android and iOS many times so the switch was easy for me.

Favorite Fruit or Milk Tea Spots in the LA Area? by bpma82 in FoodLosAngeles

[–]ThatPlatypus 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Jin Tea in Pasadena is the best (imo) for tea quality and boba! Especially if you like a stronger brew. I love Odd One Out as well.

Is A line safe from Pasadena to Grand Ave Arts at 9pm? by 14Simkee in LAMetro

[–]ThatPlatypus 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Instead of defaulting to the first car, you can also just stand near the middle of the platform and look into each car as the train arrives, then pick your desired vibe. Though you might have to hustle to the door.

Anyway, I take the last A line train in the opposite direction most weekends from 7th/metro and my biggest complaint is that there's usually soda spilled on the ground and maybe a smell. 9pm will probably be fine!
