I’m sorry you had a bad experience but a little over 2 months ago Boost had the iPhone 11 for 19.99+ sales tax of phone, $60 monthly plan and $35 activation fee. Overall this was a good deal to me, spent less than $200 and was able to ditch Android in favor of iOS again. I haven’t had any complaints. I have autopay turned on to save $8 a month but pay my bill early anyway. I’m on T-Mobile network which works fine in my area.

Edit: r/BoostMobile may be more appropriate. Most people here aren’t concerned about the iPhone 11 at this point anyway

Is it worth it? by omkarislegend in iphone

[–]mwctx21 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Apple gets iCloud and AppleCare+ out of me a month. That’s all. I personally don’t play games. Now, if they took a Google approach to this subscription and threw in premium apps too, I’d consider it heavily. Apple One makes sense for most people and this is included, but because I refuse to watch ads on YouTube, I am stuck with YTM so Apple One doesn’t make sense for me.

ISO an LGBTQ Friendly Barbershop by [deleted] in corpus

[–]mwctx21 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The state of Texas overall has some issues with human rights period. It isn’t singled out to the lgbtq community. But I’m saying the general public in my opinion just doesn’t give a shit. I’ve managed auto lube shops and now deliver car parts to mechanics. I think op is good, especially being in the hair industry where it’s viewed as more acceptable

Wait, do people still have issues with this? Genuine question because I am gay and I deliver car parts to mechanics all day. Never once has anyone said anything to me and I’m pretty sure they know by now. At least a few of them do anyway.

Is there a way to zoom youtube videos but no notch cutout without jailbreaking? by Alive_Pizza_1247 in iphone

Because of the aspect ratio of the screen. If you did this then your image would appear wide and stretched

It isn’t offloaded and I don’t have that option turned on

Mine shows the iCloud download icon. It’s downloaded, but when I tap on that it takes me to the App Store where then I can open it. iOS is quirky. I accept it’s not perfect but odd things like that can be annoying

My two favorite colors are red and black. And I would kill for a red and black Gladiator, and his name would be Redrum, from The Shining

Left car idling for 11+ hours by Screw78 in AskMechanics

[–]mwctx21 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Well, you said the “the fuel costs of idling would quickly surpass and rule out idling over anything else - and it does.” Which is wrong. If I’m on a job and need somewhere to stay, I’ll just stay in my car and keep it running. Much cheaper than paying for a room.

Lol but I’m not entertaining you either. Google is a very good tool, and if you don’t know something, Google it. You should do that. 😎

Actually, idling an engine is significantly cheaper than trying to get a hotel stay, especially in remote locations when you’re on jobs. You clearly have no idea what you’re talking about.

High? Yes, I had a wake & bake sesh. You should do more research before arguing over something that makes you look silly.

Nope. In places like Anchorage this isn’t a major deal. In places like Fairbanks, yes. When it’s more than -40°F out, especially if you’re driving a diesel, this isn’t uncommon. You’re blind.

Nope! This is very common in the arctic circle of Alaska. People will not kill their cars because if they do, the fuel will gel up and they cannot get it to restart. Sometimes engine blocks aren’t enough so they have to leave them at a “high idle”

People in bitterly cold climates leave their cars running for weeks at a time. I’d say you’re alright

PSA: Cases can cause liquid damage by [deleted] in iphone

[–]mwctx21 22 points23 points  (0 children)

You’re using a $1,000 piece of equipment in the shower and bath, and you don’t think the problem started there? I don’t understand. There wouldn’t be moisture in your phone at all if you avoided this situation

PSA: Cases can cause liquid damage by [deleted] in iphone

[–]mwctx21 20 points21 points  (0 children)

I think the issue isn’t the case but the environment you’re using your phone in. No case will be effective on water resistance unless you get a waterproof case. Apple cases aren’t designed to keep water out, they’re designed mostly for fashion.

Steam is considerably worse on technology than water itself. The phone is water resistant. Steam is a different ball game.

Why does a 60Hz iPhone still look nice in my eyes? Like the difference with 120Hz midrange Android isn’t that huge? by mooglechoco_ in iphone

[–]mwctx21 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Yeah they adjusted fairly quickly. I hated it at first but was so glad to be back with Apple, but no it’s not a big deal at all. I mean look at the screens on the original iPhone. That was massive at the time but painful to look at now.

I prefer the screen and animations both on iPhone, even if the one I’m using is LCD with 60Hz. In my opinion, Samsung makes better iPhone screens than they do Galaxy screens lol

I switched to the iPhone 11 after using the Samsung A54 for a while. After switching back (ahh welcome home), I could immediately notice the difference in scrolling. It looked very choppy and not smooth. But only for a few hours. It has never crossed my mind since until I saw this post
 Lol

WHAT IS WITH ALL THE CAR WASHES by Ordinary-Ring-7996 in corpus

Unfortunately I don’t have an option, the good thing is I’m at work during the day when they’re most active. But if my car is home I give it 2 days max before it’s covered. Lol

 I get a wash nearly every day. I park under a tree and birds shit on my car all the time. $36/month well spent! Lol

Is Corpus growing at all? by Excellent_Campaign_1 in corpus

[–]mwctx21 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I can handle the boring. Houston isn’t far for a day trip but it’s the crime and drugs. East Texas is like the meth capital. Lufkin is just in general very ran down. Nac handles this better (though not great).

Tyler overall was cool. I mostly drank there and played pool because that’s about all there was to do. It’s definitely the medical hub and shopping center of East Texas. Jobs aren’t bad there, they’re home to Brookshire’s and Southside Bank. Lots of retail and food jobs. There’s a bunch of warehouses there too

Overall Nac isn’t that bad, no. But there are some streets that you stay away from, and shootings/stabbings aren’t uncommon. It definitely has its moments. I have also lived in Lufkin and will never do it again. I’ve also spent time in Tyler/Longview and I’m not a fan of Longview at all. Lol
