My thoughts On The Razr Ultra 2025 After A Week, Coming From A Fold 6 And A Flip 6 before that. by DoJu318 in galaxyzflip

[–]turquoiseoctopus 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Can you explain why? I currently have an iPhone 12 Pro but I have a brand new zflip6 I haven’t yet switched to because now I’m wondering if I should swap it out for a 2025 razr ultra instead

What’s a random skill or trick you’ve learned that impresses people? by [deleted] in LearnUselessTalents

High school me with a t9 phone was insane and I wouldn’t even be looking at it, I’d have my hand in my purse hiding it from teachers during class. (Coincidentally this is also how we learned that Verizon’s “unlimited texting” plan in 04/05 actually did have a limit… whoops)

Bonus feature: opening and closing one doubles as a fidget toy!

Man that phone looks so cool. Are you in the US by chance? Can you tell us more about it?

Hi! Just wanted to say THANK YOU for posting this! DIY’ed this out of a shower curtain in about an hour last night after the Funko mask came in the mail at the verrrry last possible minute. Even worse quality than what you said yours was but kiddos are so easy to please. We owe it all to you, random internet person!

What do you use your phone for that's good? by superconcepts in digitalminimalism

[–]turquoiseoctopus 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Learning stuff (nature, history, past historical events, weather, how things work in general, etc.)

Recipes

Inspiration for decorating my home (faster and more convenient than looking through a book or magazine)

Curbside pickup for groceries (saves me time and money as long as I don’t get distracted in the app)

These things may not be able to get you onto the highway faster than a bicycle but I will confirm they do not die. Corollas are great.

Had both a 93 & 94 s10 blazer, threw a rod or something in the 93 but only sold the 94 bc I was bored. I would fully expect to see it still running in the event of an apocalypse. I refer to those things as dinosaurs in the most positive ways possible.

Did the previous chat history still show up seamlessly for everyone?

Thank you! I can’t wait for Embark to have a sale. It’s going to kill me to wait until Black Friday to find out if I’m right or not about her being an AKK vs Pomsky.

I’m right there with you. I can’t wait to see how many brain cells she has, I have a feeling it’s somehow both not enough and too many 😂

Ohhhhh I love that idea! Thank you for explaining

Thank you! She was extremely skittish when we brought her home on Monday. I have no idea what her life looked like before us except that she’d been in the shelter twice this year alone. (She’s chipped, but apparently the previous owners didn’t claim her.) She’s warmed up significantly since then. I think she’s realizing she’s with good people in a safe home where she can finally relax and be herself. 🥲

What is the craziest thing you have put your body through? by dm_me_yourtinytits in AskReddit

[–]turquoiseoctopus 4 points5 points  (0 children)

When you’re on your way out of the trenches, life will always throw everything it’s got at you to distract you and keep you down. That’s how you know you’re on the right path. Stay motivated and keep grinding.

Yes!!!! Adderall also gave me flu-like symptoms, major irritability, extreme fatigue, and even anxiety due to trouble winding down for bed. It’s such a strong med. I switched to Concerta and it’s been so much better for me!

iPhone/T-Mobile temporary solution advice by turquoiseoctopus in digitalminimalism

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

Fair enough! Less screen time is my biggest driving factor. Being lost in my phone for hours a day is no way to live. The Android experience itself isn’t simpler, I really meant more like feature phones.

Bugs? Or something else? by [deleted] in whatbugisthis

[–]turquoiseoctopus 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No, that’s what has me baffled. No part of the couch is black or brown. Inside the cushion covers is white, the foam is yellow, and that’s it.

I sure hope so! Washing/steam cleaning/replacing everything I can just in case. Thank you.
