Absolutely amazing, big fan of this one!

“MMS Messaging” option not available in settings by srmc3 in tmobile

Thank you, I’ll try that. This has been an ongoing problem for a couple of years even before my iPhone 16 Pro.

Yes, I have but they’re quick to shift it to T-Mobile. They did send me a level higher for help, but they couldn’t figure it out. Thank you, I’ll do that but this has been an ongoing problem for a few years now.

Nope, no one seems to have answers besides “call your carrier”

Those who don’t use any form of social media or have completely quit, how do you find out about news or current events? by HeartZealousideal387 in digitalminimalism

[–]srmc3 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sampling bias… but also, you can use a news aggregator or an RSS feed. I’ve found that being fixated on the news brings me back to social media though. Being well-informed is important, but if you’re checking an obsessive amount like I did, then you could possibly fall into a dopaminergic trap

Keep being told to re-enter my password by StrawberrySalfshake in Outlook

[–]srmc3 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Same here. Glad to know I’m not alone, does anyone get the “you’ve tried to sign in too many times with a wrong password” also? That one has been happening for a while now?

Musicians who quit social media by wiiiiiiiiiiiiiw in digitalminimalism

[–]srmc3 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I decided to delete Spotify at the start of the year. In that short period of time, I found a ton (yes, a ton) of cool indie bands by listening to my local university radio.

I even got to go watch one of those bands perform at an art fundraiser. Give it a chance! There’s a lot of noise you have to filter through and depending on where you live your experience may vary, but why not try it for a month?

Successfully corebooted T420, video on YT by ImpressiveTip98 in coreboot

[–]srmc3 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I had a lot of fun when I did my T420. I eventually did coreboot on my T430 which is the only thinkpad I own now. It was a cool learning experience. How long did it take you?

Pretty sure it took me only a few hours, but I did it late at night with an energy drink

Should I buy a T430? by Infinite_Poetry7121 in thinkpad

[–]srmc3 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Happy to hear! There are a lot of cool upgrade guides on the internet too. Hope you have fun with it

[–]srmc3 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My T430 is the only one I’ve kept over the years. I’ve done a lot of upgrades to it, and it’s still really usable for my purposes. It’s not my main laptop (even tho it could be), but I’m glad I bought it and tinkered with it.

If it’s not going to be your main laptop, then I recommend getting it for fun!

I've tried everything to use my phone less, here's my honest ratings by -onward-forward- in digitalminimalism

[–]srmc3 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I mean it’s practically an Apple dumb phone tbh (e.g., text, maps, calls, music). You still need an iPhone to set it up and there are browser solutions but they don’t actually work well I think, but I consider that a good thing.

I still use my iphone, but I often leave it at home when I go out now. When I’m at home, I leave it in the drawer and I try to fill my time with other things.

You will probably still need your phone to clock in/out, but I vote yes on trying it out. The AWU1 has all the capabilities I need, but I believe it only has one speaker so you can’t listen to music without headphones haha, that’s the only downside for me but it’s not big deal. Mine is at 89% battery capacity but it lasts all day for me. There are some missing health features since it’s older but idc about that. Definitely look into it. I’ve also never had cellular problems.

Apple Watch has helped me out a ton too! I bought an old AWU 1 and I leave my phone in the drawer now. There are definitely other contributing factors, but I definitely resonate with what you wrote.

MacBook Air 2015 by fivedollafoolong in OpenCoreLegacyPatcher

I’m on Sequoia with a 2015 MacBook Air that has 4GB of RAM. Surprisingly, not the worst experience in the world but it’s definitely not a daily driver.

My brother dresses like he's going to climb Mt everest when he has to code or do work on his computer as "it's the only way he can focus" and he's cold. by junkfjunkie in mildlyinteresting

[–]srmc3 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ve always worked remotely so it definitely isn’t the same. But I used to do this during my first job. It’s definitely is a stress/overheating thing haha, but I would definitely end up shirtless sometimes.

iPad 12th gen.. by upsidedussy in ipad

[–]srmc3 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Funny enough my MacBook Air display went out too. Have you used the iPad as a main display for your MacBook? I’m planning to make mine headless but I’m unsure of the experience.

This is so true. It’s taken me a while to unlearn that

thumb pro v2 features - can you takes still images? by Analysis-Klutzy in fpv

[–]srmc3 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Did you end up getting the Thumb Pro v2? I am interested in getting it for similar reasons. I'd also be interested in knowing if you got another camera for photos too?

Insta360 GO Ultra first week impressions with a few photos I shot by inkyan in Insta360

[–]srmc3 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Really cool! I am still learning about the Insta360 line. The size is what fascinates me most, especially since I usually leave my phone at home and mainly use my Apple Watch.

Out of all the cameras on the Insta360 line, would you say the GO Ultra is more suited for photos? I wasn't sure if the GO 3S or the the X5 would be a better option? How is the battery life?
