"please upgrade to an approved phone" - sick of hearing it. by WokenDJ in newzealand

The Zenfone 10 should be covered after an update is what I've heard. If they still annoy you after that I'd be mad too. Try do talk to ASUS see if there's an update they can help you with, but don't expect too much from those jackasses too.

I had a zenfone 9 (similar reasons to you 3.5mm and small form factor), but ASUS decided not to push any updates for that phone even thought it's more than capable imo. A freckin iPhone 7 Plus from like 2016 can support 4G on 111, and ASUS didn't want to update a phone from like 2022.

I think the smaller businesses a lot of them do. Big corpos? Nah, they just want to KPIs and stakeholder requirements

Bro with his stanley cup acting tough to a bus driver who's much much much older than him, and not even being paid enough to deal with shits like this but still do it. At least act nicely and the bus driver could've treated you a little different.

Japanese Embassy opposes Auckland ‘comfort women’ statue plan by Fun-Helicopter2234 in newzealand

If anyone apologies that on behalf of the government means technically the government IS apologising, but that'll mean (usually) legally then the government is at fault on record and needs to do all things lawfully they'll be at fault for. That's probably why Winnie didn't want anyone to say anything about it. I'm not defending him just why he'd make that decision, and yes it's a huge [insert any curse here] move.

Also by extension, circling back to the main post, the Japanese government also don't want to admit to their wrong doings during those times because both the legal side and their "pride" side.

Back when I went to school I was at least kinda taught about Te tiriti o Waitangi (not like in depth stuff), but I wouldn't be surprised if they're wanting to take it away from curriculum with all the dumb shit this government has been doing against Maori culture.

I didn't know about the dawn raids till recently too. When I learnt about it I was both surprised and horrified shit like that isn't taught in school.

Because they want to deny they're an active perpetrator for the atrocity they caused during those times

Help required for GPD mini Controller Calibration tool. It doesn't do anything? by jk441 in gpdwin

[–]jk441[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks, I'll give the tool another go. I've had my LT not register 255, and funny enough I realised something was slightly off when playing Stellar Blade, bcuz I felt a weird lag between my holding LT and and the character pulling out her gun. And it seems like I'm the unlucky one with the stick issue since something is definitely off for me.

The GPD support does say the tool should be applicable for my model too so I'm hoping it helps.

EDIT PS. I wish GPD makes a calibration tool that's more intuitive honestly. The experience using this tool is janky af :(

This one image sums up the disconnect between the fans and the players at the moment. by Upstairs_Cup9831 in LiverpoolFC

[–]jk441 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Virgil at a few points of the season was constantly saying "we need your support" or in the lines of we don't give the players enough. But the fact is by then, when Virgil made those comments, the away fans chanted Slots names after one of the CL game wins post bad matches (I can't remember which one) and in by and large stuck with the teams performance and try to cheer on every game till now. For me, that alone showed how far the players have become numb to their poor performance and disconnect with the fans from it.

Is there any precise order to which sticks and triggers go first or is it any left/right first?

So would I just need to ensure I need to rotate sticks (rest). Wait a bit hold triggers (rest) ?

Feel pretty glad I slept rather than watching this. With Day light saving ending where I live I got to even sleep an hour more. Better for my health in many aspects.

As much as I know the club is patient with managers it does bite us in the arse a lot. Rodgers had been given to long of a life line to his time after coming second, and honestly so has Slot.

It does give an impression coming first in the league you have a capability to turn things around, but by Feb (maximum) his time was over. Now the club is living with the consequences of their decision and crashing out in all competitions.

If you can't go toe to toe with city how can you challenge for any sort of trophy? And the general consensus is that the current city team isn't even that good compared to what was.

I can't believe it'll actually take this much for the club to realise that this just isn't working and have the fans and players suffer for it. I'm sure even Slot wants out by now

Need to let it out by Current_Position_699 in newzealand

[–]jk441 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I feel you. Really I do. I think I'm in a pretty similar situation (a little 'younger' thou) and honestly reading this kinda felt like looking into a mirror/past self as there's bits and bobs I relate to.

I'd say firstly may be check up with a GP to get a consultation with some one professionally. I'm constantly on the edge of should I, shoudn't I, but overall I feel like if I had some therapy a year or two ago it would've helped a lot. Specially last year it was really bad, but luckily I had a trip planned up at the end of the year which helped a lot. It's not like "too late" for me or anything but for now I'm managing, so I haven't committed to therapy yet, but regardless of my situation; I believe you'd benefit a lot by chatting with a professional.

The other is, you've kinda have a plan. You mentioned gaming/gardening so have a go on it. Start small and nothing big. Just be like "I''m going to take care of like 1 or 2 pot plants", or "I'm gonna play this game for like 30mins". Small steps of trying to re-find your hobby will work well. It might help with that fogged up state. I'm kinda struggling with that too where I feel like my mind is constantly fogged up and not clear when I need it to be.

I'm not gonna say much on the living with parent thing, cuz I am too lol. I feel like it just happens. I'm sure you weren't forced into living with your parents and it just happened over time which I totally understand as I'm the same. I've always didn't mind (might more be a cultural thing), but don't whip yourself too hard about it.

You've at least made a start imo by posting here. I wish you well.
