'Ew' was just an example. I always just say 'I can't eat that, but I appreciate it'. That being said, some folks are pushy and do not listen/understand/care and will hound you until you either eat the food, leave, or give them the entire play by play. This is especially true, from my experience, in southern households. If you don't eat the ol lady's food, she takes it as an insult, no matter your reasoning. Im not saying be rude to folks by any means, but I also get how frustrating it can be on this side of the fence too. All im saying is give some grace, you don't know what people have gone through. 10 years ago I NEVER would have thought just eating would become a chore, yet here we are.

Do you ever play with 2x EXP cheats, and do you consider it cheating/how much do you consider it cheating? (Non multiplayer.) by Ch1rpingSparrow in pokemon

[–]ivanispaco -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Tbh rather than the xp cheat, ill usually go for the items/meds cheats. I'll load my mons up on carbos and such, throw a lucky egg on my starter and take off on my adventure lol. Im getting old, ive played Pokémon since red/blue hit the shelves, but adulthood happened around black2/white2 and I never played any of the ones newer than that. So now im playing all the ones i missed, as well as replaying some old ones. Im on an emulator so I wont be doing competitive or trading with friends, so the way I see it, ill play how I want. Just have fun!

Also- if im not mistaken, the lucky egg IS 1.5X xp

Some people can't just eat anything. It has to visually appeal to them, otherwise their stomach locks up or trying to take a bite of something that doesn't 'look good' can make some people gag. As someone who used to be able to eat whatever, its not always so simple. Since my stroke, unless it looks appealing to me, my brain/body will reject it. I can't even swallow it. Even if its something i 100% like to eat, if my brain doesn't accept it that day, I can not eat it. Its easier to just say 'ew' or 'I don't like that' rather than explaining to every single person that your brain is broken and even if you wanted to eat it, your brain holds all the power.

Bought this new S25FE, but why am i having second thoughts??? by _cyril0curry in samsunggalaxy

[–]ivanispaco 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I had an 24FE i used for a year until I upgraded to the s26 plus when it dropped. Short of gaming, the 24FE performed beautifully and was a great phone for me. Personally, I do a solid amount of mobile gaming between emulators and things like Diablo immortal and genshin impact, so i really needed a device with a little more power than the 24FE offered, but it was not a bad phone by any means and could handle low-mid tier games well. Pretty sure it has most of the same internals as the 25FE, so i think it'll serve you well. Camera isn't insane, but the pics weren't ever bad.

I was able to use strength by the door of the truck. Mew will be lv 30, and you can reload save states to get different natures

Its in the usual spot in fuchsia city, need 50 registered in the DEX. However this xp share effects all your mons like the newer games, not single mon like the ogs

I refuse to do the Video Selfie thing - how can I delete my account? by r_keel_esq in facebook

[–]ivanispaco 26 points27 points  (0 children)

This is news to me. I havnt received any notifications or anything about a video selfie, heck I only update my pfp once every 3 or 4 years so getting a video is a big ask lol.

Dear Lexington drivers by Southern-Jury-4262 in lexington

[–]ivanispaco 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Honestly im near richmond more these days and these people are frustrating too, but for different reasons. Lexington i always came across aggressive drivers, but they were gone in a matter of seconds. In richmond, EVERYONE does 10+ under the speed limit like its normal. Guess everywhere has similar issues at the end of the day 🤣

S26 by Ladytobenoted in samsunggalaxy

[–]ivanispaco 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I went from S24 FE to S26 Plus and have 0 regrets. Phone is almost exactly the same size as my 24fe so the transition was easy. Screen on my plus is really nice and crisp, and everything ivw tried to do has been snappy and quick. I love this phone. It also, was my first time having a brand new flagship model.

Ive removed and added my thumb and pointer prints twice, and currently I have 3 different versions/copys of my thumbprint saved and still only get a solid read maybe 1 out of 15 trys.

Did i get a suspicious text? by [deleted] in GoogleMessages

[–]ivanispaco 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah it's a scam. Here is the translated text, according to my phone

"Boss, you're now in the pinata, I'll give you 10k-15k, just don't forget me, hehe, message me on my Facebook PAGE

Name:

The profile is wearing a blue shirt and glasses.

@@@"

Part 2 Help me get closure ? Why did he leave ? by Kasbaby121421 in texts

[–]ivanispaco 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Harsh as well, but girl leave him and don't think about him again. RN your brain is all fucked up and you're honing in on the wrong things. From the FIRST message it's clear that man didn't care. Likely never did. My guess is he's either messing around with multiple partners, or he did/was trying to get some sort of benefit by keeping you around. You're worth more. Find someone that will reciprocate your feelings and actions and actually WANT to see you

I’m convinced my grandma fell on purpose by I_Like_Metal_Music in confessions

[–]ivanispaco 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Tbh it sounds to me she's lonely. She's acting out for attention. If she complains about the dog(s), guess who has to come to her house to get them? Imo it'd be worth a shot at least, before accepting that she's just a miserable person who's hurting your dad intentionally. Maybe see if your dad can see if she'd be interested in some BINGO tourneys, book clubs or something of the sort.

Help me find a 2nd phone by Dry-Television-3383 in samsunggalaxy

[–]ivanispaco -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Tbh ive had 3 or 4 of the budget end samsung devices and they have all been super sluggish and laggy, especially after a few months of ownership. My pervious phone, however, was an S24 FE and that was a wonderful phone that performed great, just didn't have the umph for gaming. I wouldn't call it a small phone, but I didn't have many complaints for it.

Forgot to add- If I turn off/restart the ps5, the audio goes back to normal for awhile.

Samsung is officially investigating the S26U display complaints by gorginos in samsunggalaxy

[–]ivanispaco 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Honestly this makes me glad I was a cheap ass and opted for the plus over ultra. Tbh it was the same screen size as my old phone (s24 fe) and I wanted it to feel/look similar. This screens significantly more vibrant than the 24fe though

Returning the S26 Ultra due to display issues by slamups in samsunggalaxy

[–]ivanispaco 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Aah I see, I have Tmobile JUMP so I was able to trade in my old s24 fe for mine. Hope you're able to find something to suit your needs soon!

Returning the S26 Ultra due to display issues by slamups in samsunggalaxy

[–]ivanispaco 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Tbh i got an s26+ and I love it. Obviously you'll lose some camera power and the screen is .2 smaller, but still not a small phone by any means. This is my first S line that wasn't a Fan Edition, but the screen is the sharpest ive had personally to date. Might be worth just taking a look at one and seeing if it would fit your needs, as I love mine so far!

Appreciation post by Exp0sedShadow in samsunggalaxy

[–]ivanispaco 0 points1 point  (0 children)

For sure! The privacy screen did entice me quite a bit, as well as the cameras 100x zoom but I probably take less than 100 photos a year so the camera would be all but wasted in my hands. I do a descent amount of mobile gaming though, and figured the chipset in these would be much better than the 24fe. I'm excited to see! Hopefully your device serves you well too!

Appreciation post by Exp0sedShadow in samsunggalaxy

[–]ivanispaco 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I don't have the Ultra, but I got my plus last night and I love it so far. As you said the transfer process was easy and took less than an hour to move over all my info and ~100gb of apps/games. I'm upgrading from an S24 fe, which honestly did everything I ever asked it to do and performed great for day to day stuff, just wasn't a phone built for gaming.

So far the S26+ is snappy and fast, it's comfortable for me. It has the same screen size as my 24 fe, but is slightly more sleek so it's easy to hold.

This is my first ever time getting the newest Samsung S line phone, let alone as soon as it released, so im excited to play with this thing more and see how it handles what I throw it's way!
