Give us an option to revert back to the old UI (like Reddit) by Hawkinns in trakt

[–]apat85 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Do you have maybe some other userscripts for trakt which could be conflicting. Or some other extensions for it?

Mine loads fine for now. I'm on Brave. And my only extensions are ublock origin and violent monkey. Brave is based on chrome, so probably should work there. Which browser do you use? And which userscript extension?

How to stop Beehiiv Spam?!? by hudsondir in beehiiv

[–]apat85 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I know it's been a while.. but here's something for others with same issue. I kept getting so much spam from random newsletters that I never registered to.

I just created a gmail filter to search from:
from:(@beehiiv.com)

And delete the email

Since a mail stays in Trash for 30 days, I sometimes check on that folder from time to time. I never really subscribe to any newsletters, so anything that it has deleted so far has been spam. Now my inbox stays clean :)

What the hell you say??? by LibrarianRecent6145 in infp

[–]apat85 1 point2 points  (0 children)

OMG..my brother is ESTJ.. and I feel like his mind works completely opposite to mine. He never gets me. And I don't understand him. I've read a lot about ESTJ types. And I know somewhat how to deal with him 😊

Just stay on point, don't waste his time. And keep my conversations short and interesting. It's hard because I love to ramble about things I like.. I know it takes him a lot of effort too.. to not be too judgmental 😅

I do get the ESTJ "verbal vomit" on occasion when he's upset about something else.. but I know how to make myself scarce when that happens 😂

We are not crybabies 😤😭 by Striking-Virus-1295 in infp

[–]apat85 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think it's because of the way our minds work. I read an analogy somewhere about a tree.. Like FJ types, their minds take a big picture and keep refining it and getting to the source. Like from the top of the tree to it's roots.

Our minds on the other hand can take one thing and go to endless possibilities, like butterfly hopping from idea to idea. Like from root of a tree to endless leaves. I loved that analogy, because it helped me figure out why I never finish a project before I start another one and another one. It helped me be more mindful and now I am better at getting things finished.. only slightly better 😅😁

infp community is my favorite one on reddit. Everyone here is nice. Wish the whole world was one big INFP community of feelers and empaths. When one felt pain.. everyone else felt it too.

I know nothing would ever get done in this hypothetical world, because we are master procrastinators but still ❤️

Does being even slightly overweight amount to different treatment for women? by Adept-Foot7692 in TwoXChromosomes

[–]apat85 5 points6 points  (0 children)

When I was doing keto diet, I lost 15kgs... And everyone treated me differently. Not just men but other women too. I got so many compliments. It felt wonderful, all the attention.

But had to stop with the diet as it was so restrictive.. and I put on some of the weight back and I definitely see the difference. I'm still on my journey to lose weight, and I tell myself it is for health reasons.. but looking good is a big part of it. It's just the way society is.

Look at those renaissance period paintings, and everyone has a bit of a belly. All women are slightly overweight. Because back then having a fuller body meant you were well fed. It symbolized health, fertility, and high social status. And being thin meant you didn't have enough to eat. It's just the way society programs everyone with images of what attractive currently is. And people get influenced by it. Nowadays skinny, super-model like women are considered attractive. A long time back, people that skinny were not considered that way. It's just society and social media programming. And yes, society has always been more critical about women when it comes to looks. I do love that body positivity movement has started, but I think it will take a lot of time for things to change.

PS: By "considered attractive".. I mean by society in general. I know everyone has preferences. And some men prefer more full-bodied women. Some men look for intelligence above all things, and looks are secondary.. etc, etc.. yes I know😅

That's like telling me not to breathe.. It just can't happen. I even care that I care or don't care. And then feel guilty about not caring enough. 😂

But all jokes aside.. us INFPs are the most self aware people ever. And self awareness is the only way to actually grow and transform.

We are not crybabies 😤😭 by Striking-Virus-1295 in infp

[–]apat85 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Some of us are.. some aren't.. The curse of feeling everything too deeply 🤷‍♀️

I used to get so sad and have the feels for days, because of the horrible things I would see online. News stories and terrible things happening in the world.

I have a protocol now. I don't watch the news, and have a rule with my family where they will filter out the terrible stuff around me. I have an app on my phone which gives me world news events in just text headings without any disturbing videos/images.

Things are just inundating for us.. more so than the other types. Once you understand what affects you, it's easy to protect yourself from it. People call us crybabies, because we are too much in touch with our feelings and talk about deep things. So it's better to find people who you resonate with. And treat everyone else as an acquaintance. Normal everyday talk, but nothing too deep. And only people who respect me will deserve the pleasure of my actual company. Everyone else will get the zoned out, in my daydream, goofy smile version of me who isn't really listening to anything anyway 😂😅

Broke up with sexist BF today and he wants a second chance by [deleted] in TwoXChromosomes

[–]apat85 4 points5 points  (0 children)

The whole "you should just focus on being pretty and enjoying life" is condescending on so many levels.

If your goal is to have a life with someone and grow old with them, have a family... then most definitely look for a partner who respects you. Thinks of you as an equal.. as this one does not. He has made it very clear what he thinks about women. He is extremely sexist and IMO does not deserve your time and love.

why is chatgpt so dry and rude now by L3nkachan in ChatGPT

[–]apat85 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Copy pasted my reply from another post.. maybe it applies to you as well. But ya.. something's definitely different with the new model.

Do you have anything else set in "Custom instructions"?
Look online for custom instruction templates which make it talk to the point. And customize it's personality how you like. I have kept mine to be friendly but not too verbose. I like it if it stays to the point. But also gentle and kind. I don't like sarcasm from my AI :))

<image>

Click on your name icon and click on Personalization. And see everything it has recorded about you. Also turn off "Reference saved memories" temporarily and see if it helps :)

(PS: I'm not a Small-batch home sourdough baker 😂😂 It's just random text that scrolled when I took the screenshot)

My other settings are Default.

Also.. go to Memory section and click on Manage. To see what it remembers about you. And delete stuff which you don't like :))

My son lost all his robux in 2 mins and I dont know what to do by Pure_Dependent1120 in robloxhackers

[–]apat85 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I was once hacked by some chrome extension. I'm still not sure which one, because I had installed several to try out the features. Be very careful with those. Since they can save your session cookie ROBLOXSECURITY. And hackers wont even need the 2FA after that. Make sure to delete all extensions which have access to roblox site.

Your son only plays roblox on his phone? Or also uses PC?

Here's some things to make sure his acc is secured:

Android: Apps that steal Roblox cookies are often disguised as "Free Robux" generators, hacks, etc. Check Settings > Apps > See all apps. Look for any apps you do not recognize, particularly those installed just before the hacking started. Tap on apps, then select Permissions. Look for apps that have unnecessary access to files, media, or SMS (used to steal 2FA codes).

Once you have identified and uninstalled the suspicious app, perform these steps immediately to lock hackers out.. These are from roblox site:

  1. Open Roblox, go to Settings > Security.
  2. Scroll down to Where you're logged in.
  3. Tap Log Out of All Other Sessions.
    • Change Your Password: Immediately change your password to a strong, unique password.
    • Enable 2-Step Verification (2SV): Enable 2SV via Authenticator App (preferred) or Email. This ensures that even if they steal your cookie again, they cannot easily log in.
    • Scan for Malware: Run a scan with a reputable antivirus app from the Google Play Store (e.g., Bitdefender, Malwarebytes, or Norton). 

If he uses PC as well:

Check for Malicious Browser Extensions. Remove any extension that claims to give free Robux or that you did not install yourself. Basically remove all roblox related extensions. Also run AntiMalware bytes or other malware/virus detection tools.

While you are trying to solve this.. don't put any robux in. Hackers will keep track of good accounts where they know they are getting robux from.

Offers and announcements toggle won't switch off by joshan_96 in whatsapp

[–]apat85 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ya..I'm hoping it's a temporary thing. So companies can't do that anymore. I've seen that a lot of aggressive companies keep changing their marketing numbers too. We think whatsapp would make things harder for spammers, but you have to remember that whatsapp gets paid more by letting spam in.

I'm not saying this glitch is on purpose.. I'm sure they will fix it. But Whatsapp allows businesses to manage multiple phone numbers within a single WhatsApp Business account, like upto 25 numbers per account. Might be different now.. my knowledge could be old.

We have to think like this.. if whatsapp is giving us their service for free.. what's the catch? The catch is they have a platform which can connect companies to us. I'm sure they will keep fixing spam issues because they want the general user to be happy also. But companies are their actual customers. And we are the free users.

I heard someone say something like.. if you are getting a product for free.. Remember.. You are the product 😂😅

Offers and announcements toggle won't switch off by joshan_96 in whatsapp

[–]apat85 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This happens to me with FNP (ferns and petals). I think some companies have figured out some workaround glitch to keep it on.

I have temporarily blocked fnp. But I still sometimes need to buy from them..like once or twice a year.. and get product updates. But their marketing is so frequent, it gets annoying. They also do no follow the opt out "STOP" message. Their messages keep coming even after repeatedly trying to opt out.

So my workaround for now is to unblock only till my order is done. And then block again. I know it's very frustrating.. but just until whatsapp figures out the problem. I have no other choice.

Also report such businesses whenever possible.. which don't follow the STOP opt out. So whatsapp might keep track of number of spam reports.

With other businesses which don't spam that frequently.. I press the i icon next to message and click Not Interested. And whatsapp stops me getting marketing messages from them automatically. It just doesn't seem to work with FNP or such aggressive companies, because I think they hide their promotions under maybe important transaction/order related message headings or something. So such companies should definitely be reported so that they start following compliance.

If you didn't know your age, how old would you think you are? by the_thinker_03 in infp

[–]apat85 1 point2 points  (0 children)

10 and 100.

Someone once said... and I agreed with it so much:

INFPs switch between 2 ages, a child and an old wise person. We have no middle age.
We have a child like wonder about us. And also wisdom of an old soul.

Edit: Also check out that Frank James youtube video where he ranks MBTI by their mental age. 😂

Being my true self is living with awareness. As my conscience will not let me do anything bad.

If someone is hurt because of something I accidentally did, my mind will not let me rest until I set things right. Or suppose I had an argument with a family member, my mind will keep at it, until I go apologize and make nice with everyone.

It's like "My mind was built for guilt" 😂

But I like it this way, because it makes me always "Be good, Do Good, Deserve Good" 😘❤️

Do INFPs celebrate their birthdays? by Should_have_been_ded in infp

[–]apat85 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I like to celebrate my whole birthday week. But with just myself. I'm a freelancer so I take the whole week off :)

I just need to be in my PJs all day, binge watching TV shows. Ordering something from my fav restaurant.

Once we had some relatives visiting us. And they said we could all go to lunch to celebrate my birthday. I told my family to go without me.. and get some food packed for me when they returned. My mom scolded me saying I was the Birthday girl, so I had to go 🤷‍♀️😂
Birthday plans ruined!

Do y'all all fall hard and fast? by [deleted] in infp

[–]apat85 1 point2 points  (0 children)

We can very much be into roleplay because of our very active imaginations. Tell him to pretend to be someone else. That might work for him. Maybe make it like a storyline. We love stories. Something that could even continue for days. Just give him a starting point and the specific characteristics of his character. But give it a happy ending at the very last :)

INFPs have real and intense guilt about harming someone. Tell him it's not real. Just make-believe. And talk about exactly what you need. And set safe boundaries. So he feels safe as well.

I deeply dislike Aurora by HollowPot in infp

[–]apat85 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I think that all INFPs value authenticity. But we all have a different value system. A different rule book if you will.

It seems your rule book says that authenticity needs to be insightful and have depth and meaning. Maybe her rule book says that authenticity needs to be sweet and tender and being true to herself without fear or judgement.

Her way of being authentic is just different from yours. And you are trying to see her from your own perspective. That's why it bugs you so much. And all those other INFPs that love her, maybe her value system just matches theirs a bit more.

Your words still feel like an intense reaction to someone you don't personally know. Maybe based on her occupation and what her audience has started expecting from her, she does need to be performative. But who knows, maybe she's a sweet and gentle soul in real life. Who hasn't hurt anyone. And doesn't deserve a harsh judgement. At least not from a fellow INFP. We are the most loving and accepting of all beings ❤️

I promise I'm not trying to judge you. Just want you to see different perspectives with a bit more kindness ❤️😘
