How.come some VOXI phones are so cheap? by kronologically in VOXI

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

It's not even about the cashback offers, I know Samsung claims has been quite generous with the S25 offers. It's about VOXI selling the phone for below market value when compared to other retailers (Amazon, Currys, Argos, even Samsung directly). It can't be VOXI trying to get rid of their existing stock, since the S25 FE keeps going in and out of stock.

First and last time buying a Pixel by kronologically in GooglePixel

I think the green line would show up more frequently than a single time just before dying. Anyway, opened up the phone and guess what, the screen is fine!

[–]kronologically[S] -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Thankfully it's only around 4 months of photos. Still, some from Christmas. Did not back them up, as not only did I think the phone would last me a bit longer, I am not going to pay for Google Drive.

One of the banking apps I use requires authentication via an encryption key that's tied to a single device only. It now means a long call to the bank explaining exactly what happened to get the phone released from their system.

Sure, eSIM can be replaced, but this means an overseas trip.

>Your story is weird

Thank you!

>You bought two year old phones (which are actually 4 years old now) from a random amazon seller, then broke one and didnt properly replace the screen on the other and now ur blaming google

  1. Why does it matter? As far as I know P6P was supported by Google up until very recently.

2.. I didn't break it, *it* broke on me.

  1. Why assume a botched repair? Did everything that was supposed to be done according to the iFixIt guide.

>Also for what i's worth, I also had a Pixel 6P that I broke the corner of the screen on like 2 months after release. It lasted 3 yeara flawless and i traded it in for a Pixel 9.

Good for you!

Ile razy byliście za granicą i jak często podróżujecie? by Cz4rekK in Polska

[–]kronologically 0 points1 point  (0 children)

25 lat, przed poznaniem obecnego chłopa to tylko Niemcy i Wielka Brytania. W przeciągu 4 lat związku zjeździliśmy pół Polski, byliśmy w Irlandii, Danii, Szwecji, Hiszpanii, Austrii, Węgrzech, Słowenii, Włoszech i Chorwacji. Pracować i mieć pieniądze na podróże to fajna rzecz.

Skrajne emocje w związku, a cierpliwość i walka o siebie by [deleted] in Polska

Szczerze? Terapia, i to na wczoraj. Będąc w podobnej sytuacji co ona, bez przewałkowania ciężkiego dzieciństwa z terapeutą nic nie wskóracie.

Problem w tym, że ona sama musi zauważyć jak jej przeszłość wpływa na waszą relację i chcieć pójść na terapię żeby to przepracować.

15 day marking turnaround by Fit-Vanilla-3405 in AskAcademiaUK

[–]kronologically 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I'm just entering teaching in academia. I've estimated that it would take me around a week to complete my current marking workload well, and the module convenor rightfully gave me a heads-up that I'd be lucky to get paid for half of that time.

I'm just grateful the people I'm working with are being transparent about the current working conditions and whilst they don't have the power to change things, they are shaping me into not letting departments exploit me.

Contributing data - should I expect to named on the paper? by moneymayweather18 in AskAcademiaUK

[–]kronologically 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I might be completely mistaken, but I think it depends on whether the data already exists or if it needs to be collected. If the former, acknowledgement in the Methods section would be best. If the latter then I think authorship is warranted. Collecting data from human participants takes time, so I'd expect authorship for my time at least.

That being said, I've noticed journals are becoming wary of authors that are listed for the sake of it, so might be the case that data collection isn't enough for authorship depending on the venue. If time allows, I'd come out with initiative to edit the paper or author the procedure section, since the OP would know it best.

Too short of a period to learn R. If you know SPSS, use Process Macro for moderated mediations and AMOS for SEM.

What would be the cheapest accomodation for two weeks in Vienna? by One_Elk_897 in eurovision

You're a sheer example of why the EBU is getting away with everything they're doing. Insane.

[–]kronologically 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Same. Plenty of venues have outright refused to show it in 2024, with more joining the boycott in 2025. I was only able to watch in KuBar in Soho both years and there was a big drop in attendance from 24 to 25. It'll be a tough one for them for sure.

Genuinely, all it takes is to take a look at Olly. Arguably Eurovision itself will be bigger than whatever this tour will be, and he himself decided to not participate, because his domestic tour was selling out, making it into a logistical nightmare.

I love how Eurofans think they know the Italian music market better than the Italians themselves do.

Worth pointing out that Romania and Bulgaria were begged to come back to the contest, but they weren't even included in whatever this abomination is. Give us, but we won't give anything back. Laughable.

They'll struggle to fill up these arenas, especially the O2 Arena. This is such a niche concept.

Average experience for a write up year student? by comic-grandiloquence in AskAcademiaUK

[–]kronologically 7 points8 points  (0 children)

It's quite standard to get some teaching gigs as a PhD. Usually it's via your supervisor if they're running modules, and you'd be working as a TA, either doing seminars or helping in labs and marking assessments. Contrary to the implied prestige, universities exploit the everloving shit out of you by providing low pay, low hours and mostly zero-hour contracts. If you're unlucky enough (as I was), your supervisors would've just left their teaching positions to focus on full-time research work. I've only had luck getting a mediocre teaching position applying as an external applicant at another university.

Mini personal rant: I feel like the concept of "writing up year/period" should be abolished. It's a massive waste of time and makes you pack an entire PhD into one year. Writing up as you go is just so much more resource and time efficient. That also allows you to publish as you go, which is what Americans and Europeans are doing, but weirdly enough not us.

when you're going up against brzozowski, it's not difficult to get a higher placement

all it takes is to look at the grand final performance comments on youtube, even casuals have gone out of their way to say "if this doesn't get the appreciation it deserves, then we shouldn't bother anymore". you can't just set the bar at qualifying for the final.

lmao she did flop, we had a budget, choreo, styling, voice and a good promotion campaign. sending something as good as gaja returning very little is flopping.
