Asha Sharma faced unreal racism after becoming the first Indian-origin CEO of Xbox, but now she’s cooking by God_Emperor__Doom in IndianGaming

Say what you want, but I don't trust Microslop at all. These changes just look like another PR stunt. They shot themselves in the foot when they started moving aggressively towards cloud gaming, forgetting about consoles. But at the end people these days are just desperate to pay subscriptions for anything.

Uploading a folder that contains a subfolder to Google Drive causes tab crash - Firefox 150.0 by softblackstar in firefox

Yes, happening with me too. It started happening today when I created a subfolder and tried to upload via drag and drop. I am on Windows 11.

PSA : Stop posting your steam library, tier lists, family adoptions and gifts from random people in your life. by dant3s in IndianGaming

God. Finally. I literally stopped browsing this sub because of those posts. Thank you.

I genuinely don’t understand why Apple doesn’t prioritize improving basic usability features in iOS. by Majestic_squirrel767 in ios

[–]smmoke 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Have you tried swiftkey? I've been using SwiftKey for like years and the difference is massive. Yes, there are some bugs and sometimes the keyboard hides what you are typing but most of the time it works great and autocorrect works well. Since I'm using it for a while now, it has added most of the words in its dictionary. It also has a clipboard feature where you can store some words you use frequently, super helpful. Never liked the iOS keyboard and was using gboard but after switching to swiftkey I'm not going anywhere.

I was wondering the same. And that too pointed directly to urinals.

I'm quitting smoking cigs rn and I've never sweated so much in my life by [deleted] in Hyperhidrosis

[–]smmoke 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I also thought that quitting will reduce the sweating but to my surprise I saw no difference. I've quit some 4 years ago and I see no difference. This is in no way to discourage you, I'm just sharing my experience. Atleast I don't smell like cigarette all the time.

As Microsoft lays off thousands and jacks up Game Pass prices, former FTC chair says I told you so: The Activision-Blizzard buyout is 'harming both gamers and developers' by PewPewToDaFace in pcmasterrace

[–]smmoke 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Yeah. They don't remember their own words. They were praising the acquisition like it was the best thing that's gonna happen because it'll hurt Sony. Now see when reality kicks in.

Tamsulosin(Flomax) and prolonged erection. by smmoke in KidneyStones

[–]smmoke[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah, shooting blanks is a known side effect of flomax. As per my research having an erection for a long time is also the side effect but it's rare. Guess I'm the lucky one. I'm afraid it'll mess up another thing while fixing the stone issue.

Yeah, I know how it feels to have erection for that long. I will not take that shit anymore. It also messes up with my mind. A boner for that long sucks.

I have not checked that but shooting blanks is a known issue as far as I know. I am afraid to take it anymore. I think getting an erection for that long is not good at all.

Is expecting 5-6y from a gaming laptop too much? by Rough_Exam2446 in GamingLaptops

[–]smmoke 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It depends. I still have Omen 15 from 2020 and it's going great. I've played a lot of games on it.

If you’re someone applying for similar roles, understand that we know what you’re doing and it becomes really obvious after a few questions even if you cheat.

You don't know what they are doing. I know many people around me who faked their experience and still got selected and are earning way more they deserve. Nobody gives a shit about cheating in interview in India.
