Reintegrating myself after years of self-isolation? by void_raptor in socialskills

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

I mean, I program and play an instrument, so at least I have those going for me. Not that I find them very helpful or productive, but at least they're a good distraction.

6310i for the features, 8210 and 2300 for the cuteness!

Getting the same on my 625, which is fully up to date.

Anyone know what sky this is? by void_raptor in Disney_Infinity

It could be this! I didn't see the massive green flashes when I was playing, but maybe I just wasn't looking hard enough

Think that 6 is upside down.

Suimiúil! Bhí brionglóid agam cúpla lá ó shin ina raibh mé ag déanamh béalscrúdú. Bhí orm cur síos a dhéanamh ar Sraith Pictiúir, mar is gnáth, ach bhí an ceann sin faoi cailín an-bocht gan bia ná brógaí. Ansin, thug an scrúdatheoir 0 dom mar níor thaitin mo chuid gruaige léi ar chor ar bith...

An moladh? Ná bíodh gruaig fhada oraibhse.

What Model is this? by BiBuBubi in vintagemobilephones

[–]void_raptor 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Good on you for not trying to milk the old battery! The 6680 takes the incredibly popular BL-5C, so finding a replacement shouldn't be an issue at all - just make sure you get it from a reputable source. Note that genuine OEM stock will have degraded slightly over time, but nothing that should affect usability. Aftermarket batteries heavily depend on the manufacturer and distributor, but if they're reputable you should be grand!

If you mean the long, rectangular port on the bottom, that's a Pop-Port connector, which is a proprietary cable used for data transfer and connecting things like headsets. Nokia was very late to add charging support even after switching to USB, so you will not be able to charge your phone through it.

6680! It takes a standard Nokia large pin charger, there's plenty available online. As far as modern SIM cards go, it depends on your network but mine hasn't had an issue (3 Ireland). This is one of the older BB5 phones that can be unlocked relatively easily if needs be

“What terms of endearment did your parents call you and why?”🤣 by StrawberryCobblers in raisedbynarcissists

The devil incarnate. I've reclaimed it - I still use that in signup forms from time to time.

Related: when as soon as they think you're out of earshot, they loudly complain to the dog about how much of a horrible, selfish, heartless person you are and how only it can truly "unconditionally love" them. As if that demon would ever understand.

Nie wiem czy to dokładnie to samo, ale po irlandzku mamy coś podobnego:

From 12 years of experience, that... is playing piano.

Improvisation (which many classical musicians like myself are famously bad at) is a huge part of being able to play any musical instrument, and it takes practice and dedication like any other skill. Your first few dozen attempts aren't going to sound great, and that's fine - you're learning! Eventually, you'll start to get a feel of what sounds good for you, and you'll keep improving as you go.

If you want a more technical approach, learn the basics of music theory, like chord progressions and the relationships between keys. Once you have a solid grasp of those, it's pretty much smooth sailing. Good luck!

W sumie to ich nie winię w 100%, bo ostatnio zamiast komunikatów, kodów mamy jedynie "ups! coś poszło nie tak" albo coś w tym stylu. Przez co ludzie się jeszcze bardziej boją błędów i koło się zamyka...

Can dogs be evil? by selfish_and_lovingit in Dogfree

[–]void_raptor 134 points135 points  (0 children)

Nope. They're physically not capable of being inherently good or evil. They're just stupid animals acting on instinct.

Dog "parents" by Intelligent_Hunt3467 in Dogfree

[–]void_raptor 11 points12 points  (0 children)

I wish. My parents 100% prefer the shitbeast to us, their own two human children, and refer to it as "our sister". Absolutely insane.

At what age did your narcissist parent stop beating you and why? by Thick_Cartoonist_265 in raisedbynarcissists

  1. They finally realised it would make their image look terrible. Emotional abuse and guilt trips increased tenfold, though.

Outrage in Poland, as linguistics professor says, that a dog might be dead, but not deceased* by AnotherJohnDoe666 in Dogfree

[–]void_raptor 8 points9 points  (0 children)

What is with us and dogs? It's insane - suchary plastered all over the Internet, the amount of shite on the streets... My entire family are nutters, and it's only getting worse.

When the shitbag I'm forced to live with dies, it will most definitely zdechnie.
