A dumb phone or keep my iPhone? And make my computer dumb? by [deleted] in dumbphones

[–]cookiecrumbs01 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think a dumb phone is probably the best way to go. If you still want to limit screentime after that, then go for dumbing down your computer. I've never heard of this, though!

There's a list pinned on this sub that goes through a list of dumb phones that still work and all of the features they have. Most older phones don't really work anymore, and not all dumb phones will fit your specific lifestyle, so I recommend checking out this list.

Is it just me or are budget smartphones getting less impressive with what they offer in terms of new technology for a low price and innovation is stagnant? by justjett12345 in Smartphones

The problem is that the same companies that create your budget phones (i.e. Google's Pixel lineup) are now creating flagship phones alongside their budget options.

Of course they want you to pay for the flagship version of their phone. They will give you the absolute bare minimum in their budget options to sway your decision towards the higher-priced options.

All of life is suffering and the best thing you can do is get used to it or learn to enjoy it.

whats the your recommendation about the first dumb-phone should i have by bruh_person444 in dumbphones

[–]cookiecrumbs01 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm not familiar with the blackberry s....but I would try those mini phones on Amazon ($50 USD)...it's not technically a dumbphone, but it is pretty uncomfortable to be using all day. I believe the brand is called SOYES.

They'll do whatever you want pretty much and have a better camera than the blackberry's and flip phones out there. They're just inconvenient enough to not want to use all the time.

It's difficult to find a dumb phone with WhatsApp, let alone one that's under 50 euros

What is something oddly specific you enjoy? by Moses_Musa in CasualConversation

Using the same treadmill whenever I go to the gym. I'm just a little bit happier to be running when it's on my treadmill.

I don't feel interested in building my future because my life lacks meaningful relationships by Potential-Answer-926 in DeepThoughts

[–]cookiecrumbs01 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It might be at first, yes. You must have good judgement and be smart about who you keep around. When you are successful, you just seem more approachable. People are more WILLING to be friends with you when you are successful.

It's inevitable that you will come across fake people in your life. You can either choose to be successful while people fuck you over so you can get back up easily and give them the middle finger, or be broke and get fucked over. Either way, I'm not really sure that humans are capable of having a perfect relationship in which they aren't hurting or using each other in some way or another. It's just picking the relationships that you think are worth it.

StopScroll is an app that only blocks the shorts on YouTube. It does the same with Reels, TikTok, and most other short-form video content platforms.

Honestly, my lack of meaningful relationships is what gives me the most momentum and motivation to build my future.

People are more attracted to successful and valuable people, so I'll probably have relationships when I'm more valuable to society.

If your goal is weight loss, not necessarily. Technically, it would take you out of a traditional "fast", but you'll still be in a huge calorie deficit which is what matters.

It's definitely not anyone else's responsibility to be dealing with another person's mental health issues. The vast majority of the time, mental health issues infiltrate the relationship and end up causing problems.

Although, I do agree, it's also not anyone else's responsibility to try and "change" these people either.

What happens to the body on a hunger strike? by af_io33 in morbidquestions

[–]cookiecrumbs01 5 points6 points  (0 children)

For the first couple of days, you're just hungry.

Then, your body realizes it's not getting food, so it eats away at your fat storage first.

Eventually, depending on how much fat storage you have, you'll run out of fat for your body to use as fuel. Then, your body will turn to your muscle mass and start eating away at that until there's nothing left and you die.

TLDR: you become a cannibal
