💯

[hoary hearth]

That's what I got from my s22

Idk how big s22 ultra battery is... But I can probably squeeze out around a day or more from it

[pale meadow]

It's slightly bigger

[hoary hearth]

Also ... I think it was released in Feb 22... so 1 year and 8 months

[pale meadow]

Eh, close enough lol

[hoary hearth]

Idk which processor you have but 8.1 snapdragon cpu is quite efficient if used properly

Mine has 695 I think....moto one

[vague hawk]

Reeeee.

[hoary hearth]

S22 had 8.1

[pale meadow]

That's what I have. The Exenos version was not as good

[vague hawk]

Go away autocorrect.

[vague hawk]

Grammar concerned Xenomorph.

[hoary hearth]

Yeah I had that one on my s10e

I like that phone soooo much

[pale meadow]

I had the Snapdragon in my Note 10

[hoary hearth]

Unfortunately cpu couldn't keep up with updates

[pale meadow]

Unfortunately

I wish I still kept my Note 20

[hoary hearth]

Make sure to hard reset phone after major os update on Android...

[pale meadow]

So I could have a backup in case my s22 died

[hoary hearth]

Samsung kinda bogs ur cpu over time

[pale meadow]

I always do

[hoary hearth]

It's updates are kinda fishy

[pale meadow]

Yeah

I receive monthly security updates as well

[hoary hearth]

I only installed recommended ones

Moto won't give me os update too much ... But that also means less ui or major changes over time

[pale meadow]

That is true. My first smart watch was a moto

[night blade]

Hey

[pale meadow]

[hoary hearth]

Hmmm

I never used smart watches

Although I am thinking of a Fitbit band or something

[pale meadow]

I have a Samsung gear 5 pro currently

Love it

[hoary hearth]

👀

[pale meadow]

Battery life is amazing

[hoary hearth]

Dang ..

[pale meadow]

Close to a year in and still can go a full twoish days without a charge

[hoary hearth]

That thing is kinda expensive here

[pale meadow]

$500 usd

I have the cellular version

[hoary hearth]

That's ~40000 in my currency

[pale meadow]

https://tenor.com/view/blinking-eyes-white-guy-blinking-meme-what-huh-gif-26334322

[night blade]

But is it useful

[hoary hearth]

Will probably get stolen in less than 24hours

[pale meadow]

💯

I can leave my phone charging and do yard work

[night blade]

If i get a smartwatch, i want it to be proactive for when i get out of my home and indicate next trams and bus

[hoary hearth]

I was thinking about this galaxy fit 2

[pale meadow]

I had that too

[hoary hearth]

This one is simple...has basic functions and cost only ~3000

[pale meadow]

I use mine to pay for things

[hoary hearth]

Around ~50 $

[hoary hearth]

Using Samsung pay?

Samsung pay is useless here

🤣

[pale meadow]

Really? I thought it was big everywhere🤔

[hoary hearth]

Samsung curses us for having our own robust digital payment system and making us #1 country in digital payments

[pale meadow]

🤣

[hoary hearth]

Now you know why it Hates us

[pale meadow]

Hahaha

[hoary hearth]

#1 India

2 Brazil
3 china
4 South Korea (Samsung home)
5....idk

It's probably like this...as per google

[hallow isle]

I mean aside from the technologically backward US and Russia, that's basically size order?

Korea being an outlier

[pale meadow]

[hoary hearth]

No most people are practically paying everything digitally

My own cards got inactive due to non useage

🤣

[hallow isle]

You still haven't deployed chip and pin fully ffs

[hoary hearth]

I even forgot it's password

[pale meadow]

good point

[hoary hearth]

My bank upgraded my card ... Without asking for any charges...

[hallow isle]

It's kinda amusing that as the nation that "invented" apple/android pay

Y'all can't use it most places

[night blade]

well it's a private company after all, their opinion basically have no value, they just want to make profit

[hoary hearth]

More and more people are going cashless here

[hallow isle]

Also Belgium is light years ahead

[night blade]

i don't like it

[hallow isle]

But tiny

[night blade]

ahead on what

[hallow isle]

They've had this weird internal digital payments system for years

[hoary hearth]

Yes
Samsung pay is nice but I think it requires you to add your card details to your Samsung phone...
And Samsung phone can be used only on Samsung phone

[night blade]

a preload card ? that's the only thing that comes in mind

[hoary hearth]

We have a universal QR codes here...
Buy it...
Scan it...
Pay it...
Move it...

[hallow isle]

Can't remember the name of it

[hoary hearth]

Takes less time than required to type it

Lol

[hallow isle]

Bancontact?

[hoary hearth]

No touch or contact required

[night blade]

That's the name of simply paying by card

[hallow isle]

Bancontact is the most popular online payment method in Belgium, with over 15 million cards in circulation. Customers use a Bancontact card or mobile app linked to a Belgian bank account to make online payments that are secure, guaranteed, and confirmed immediately.
In order to pay with Bancontact, customers are redirected to the Bancontact website or mobile app to authorize the payment and then return to your website where there is immediate notification about the success or failure of the payment.

Yeah that's it

[night blade]

There was Proton, that allowed us to preload a small amount of money that we could pay with it

[hallow isle]

Doesn't work outside of Belgium

[night blade]

Oh that

[hallow isle]

The other Belgian I know couldn't wrap their head around it not existing elsewhere

[hoary hearth]

Different countries have different payments

[night blade]

ooooooh that's the thing that centralizes payments

[cursive agate]

Eh I'll take old fashioned any day. Also there's little point for us high speed rail higher cost to maintain.

[hoary hearth]

💯

Complex stuff more maintenance required

[hallow isle]

They're usually niche though, Belgium is weird because everyone uses that service

There are more bancontact cards than citizens

[night blade]

https://tenor.com/view/true-correct-dwight-schrute-rainn-wilson-right-gif-23822659

but nowadays it's just some national equivalent of a normal bank card with Visa and Mastercard in Belgium

[cursive agate]

Plus going cashless now days when your banking accounts can be frozen over political reasons.

Isn't a good idea

[night blade]

yup i don't like that either

[cursive agate]

Already left one bank that got political

[night blade]

wdym becoming political

[hallow isle]

Did ye aye

[hoary hearth]

Countries that have accepted UPI payment system

South Korea... (Included)

🤣

[hallow isle]

I'm assuming banning a racist gobshite or well documented fraudster

That just happened to be a public figure

[hoary hearth]

Anyways...

[night blade]

🙄

[hoary hearth]

Sorry to derail the chat

[night blade]

it's better i keep my opinion for myself now

[hallow isle]

Indeed, "political" is usually a code word these days

[pale meadow]

I leave for ten minutes. What happened?

[night blade]

we got political

ouh ha ha

[pale meadow]

Now work 😮‍💨

[night blade]

it will be okay

i have still to find mine

[pale meadow]

Hahaha, oh😅

[cursive agate]

That's not the responsibility of a banking institution. Law enforcement & courts sure.
People who support that sort of thing never think it'll happen to them.

When you let someone (a bank) have that much influence over your livelyhood you better be worried.

The Nintendo Switch is better than Wii. Fight me.

And 10000x better than Game Boy

[mint spear]

Ok the Nintendo switch has so many issues with it

#1 joystick drift in the joycons

#2 overheating issues

#3 faulty SD card reader that goes out after about a year or so of use and completely ruins all your game data

#4 bad graphics and poorly designed screen

#5 a lot of the games that are old like the imulators they have in the shop are a paid service

#6 horrible ventilation in the switch and dock itself

#7 they are very hard to repair some parts

#8 Nintendo never fixed anything in the new version of the Nintendo switch because they don't care even though they literally had a lawsuit against them for not fixing the issues

Tje Nintendo switch is a shit console

[opaque tartan]

Not better than Game Boy

What madness is this

Game Boy works after nuclear blast

[mint spear]

At least a game boy lasts longer than a newer console from Nintendo

The cheap bastards

It has no taste

Only place I actually like mac and cheese

[sleek coral]

[dry bison]

There is a logic behind hospital food tho. They have a dietitian who basically prescribes food so that the anesthesiologist can properly calculate meds by checking what a person had eaten and taken daily. On the one hand, the food is largely meh..but as a bonus it means that there is nothing that could compromise your health if emergency surgery is necessary

There are different levels of food prescription and it helps to ask if you need to eat a hospital diet for medical purposes or if thats just all they have

[teal raptor]

I'm installing Starfield, let's see if I can whine alongside the rest of the gaming community

hospital food isn't that bad over here

[dry bison]

Hospital food here is bare bones. You can get a higher quality meal from TV dinners.

[teal raptor]

we don't have TV dinners here afaik

[dry bison]

I used to eat TV dinners once a week ish

[teal raptor]

we have these quick microwave trays, but they all taste like chemical plastic

[dry bison]

Walmart makes one dinner I think is worth buying

It's a lo mein noodle veggie mix with sesame sauce

or teriyaki

I can't remember

[tawny vapor]

its an honor and a pleasure

[dry bison]

I was surprised at how flavorful it actually was.

I have to wonder about the factory that makes the food though

A lot of food being shipped to walmart now has warnings on it that say it may contain weird shit like....Anchoves and Oysters.

[lament knot]

Me: joins class meeting
My classmate: “One time I was twerking in an elevator. It was wrong on so many levels.”

[lament knot]

OHHHH

[dry bison]

That's a dad joke

[lament knot]

HAHA I GET IT

[dry bison]

A dad joke about dad jokes.

Dadception

[lament knot]

Hell yeah!

Why did the bike fall over?

[dry bison]

Because

[lament knot]

Because it was two tired

Sorry the urge for bad jokes

It’s getting to me

[dry bison]

I mean...that stands to reason. Unless it has a gyroscopic stabilizer, it will fall over.

[lament knot]

How do you cut the sea in half?

With a seesaw

Yeah sorry about that one too

These horrible jokes I’m telling now reminded me of the “Hi, I’m hungry! I’m dad.

Of course by this logic that makes humans, everything murderers basically

damn that was a lot

[spare harbor]

Lol

As someone who works at walmart, I only have sympathy for the errand runners lol

This one lady yesterday about fell over she was so tired hauling 7 kids around while she shopped. Got permission to help her shop that day.

Great lady just very very very busy and a serious regular.

[spiral zephyr]

7 kids, damn

[spare harbor]

Yeah, she inherited 4 when her sister passed.

[spiral zephyr]

oof

[spare harbor]

On top of her 3 she already had

[spiral zephyr]

What a handful

[spare harbor]

Good kids though, between 17 to 3

The older ones try and help best they can

[spiral zephyr]

Awesome

[spare harbor]

How you been ?

Holidays burn you out yet?

[spiral zephyr]

Lol, not yet
Been well, hbu?
We got rid of our mango tree, that was sad

[spare harbor]

Oh? Mango? Where are you from?

Florida?

[spiral zephyr]

Hawai'i

[spare harbor]

OH!

Ok, that makes sense

Shame, I love mango trees

Was it sick, or just in the way?

[spiral zephyr]

Yeah , it wasn't bearing fruit and they get huge, it's expensive to maintain

Think Im gonna put a tangerine in instead

much easier to keep small lol

[spare harbor]

LOl

The mangos of my ex were relatively huge, but they had steps built onto them to get up

Sorta cute

[spiral zephyr]

when it did fruit the mangoes were amazing that said

[spare harbor]

Mmmmmmmmmmm

[spiral zephyr]

Hayden variety, really sweet and fragrant

[spare harbor]

Ill never forget going to the mango market in Cebu

The one yellow variety was stunningly good

Hard to grow though

[spiral zephyr]

Im sure there are amazing mangoes there

[spare harbor]

Well cebu sorta is a mango capital

Has dozens of varieties

some really rare

[spiral zephyr]

People here eat green mango with patis lol

[undone moat]

I didn't know you were supposed to skin them before you ate them tbh

I just... bit down and dealt with it

[spare harbor]

Technically a lot of fruit are edible skin and all. Its just most people skin them

[spiral zephyr]

Some are really fibrous too, the good ones are not

[undone moat]

okay the one I ate had a skin like I was chewing through leather

the insides were nice tho

[spiral zephyr]

do like this

[primal kelp]

eat it whole

like an apple

[bold island]

Manguos are amazing.

[inland grotto]

Purple!

[blissful matrix]

never seen one like this in person before

ours is yellow

[spiral zephyr]

They turn more red/yellow as they ripen
We also have a Shibata tree, those stay pretty green until ripe

[neat jetty]

This is amazing

[blissful matrix]

ooooh. but these look delish

[spiral zephyr]

same tree that had the bees a couple years ago

[spiral zephyr]

they are a very nice variety, almost no strings in the fruit too

[still tartan]

[blissful matrix]

oh wow

[spiral zephyr]

bees in a tree

[primal kelp]

free honey

[blissful matrix]

[tawny vapor]

ill take 3 dozen

[spiral zephyr]

Some really nice beekeepers came and got them for free
That was fun lol

[still tartan]

At the low low price of bzzzzzzzzzzzz

[blissful matrix]

stings

[primal kelp]

stings build character

[spiral zephyr]

they got transported to a new home in this

[tawny vapor]

box wid the beez in em

box wid da beez

[still tartan]

I’m allergic. My character development gonna be one way

[primal kelp]

you can build your ghost story

[tawny vapor]

sounds unhealthy

[spiral zephyr]

There's like a trap door on the front of that box, so they just dumped most of them in, and the queen is in the center of that ball
Then all the stragglers go in the hive on their own

[primal kelp]

don't have to worry about your health when dead

I think its a pretty good deal

[blissful matrix]

this… I never know. that is scary

[undone moat]

you joke but like, I did that...

[primal kelp]

if you tell the bee no they legally cannot sting you

[undone moat]

didn't know you weren't supposed to

[primal kelp]

take them to court I learned that from the bee movie

[still tartan]

That’s true, very good point

[primal kelp]

[undone moat]

that being said I'm a fucking weirdo when it comes to fruit

didn't know you weren't supposed to eat the skin on kiwis

[still tartan]

i’m a little quirky with fruit i actually just unhinge my jaw like a snake and swallow it whole

[brisk jasper]

If you say you feel threatened to the bees you can legally shoot them

[still tartan]

No chewing

[primal kelp]

my mom does

[still tartan]

I have a buddy who eats kiwis like that too. More power to em I guess

[undone moat]

I just kinda said "mama ain't raise no bitch" and bit into it

[primal kelp]

I've also done it b4 not bc I didn't know

[brisk jasper]

Well, you don’t want to put anything hairy in your mouth

[undone moat]

...

I can't say that here.

[still tartan]

Yeah, nah

[primal kelp]

[still tartan]

Kiwis are good for you though

[primal kelp]

yeah eat birds

[still tartan]

Keep eating fruit when you can

[still tartan]

That too

[undone moat]

I ate a lemon with the peel still on out of boredom once

[brisk jasper]

Believe me, I wanted to say it too

[primal kelp]

chomp into onions

[still tartan]

I’ve never bit into a lemon or an onion lmao

[primal kelp]

raw onions are good

[brisk jasper]

I like eating shredded cheese

[undone moat]

I've done it with an onion but it made all of my sinuses feel like I'd just poured gasoline and lit a match into them

never again

same with garlic cloves

[brisk jasper]

Like when I do tacos, I put all the toppings out in bowls and if there’s cheese left over I eat it

[primal kelp]

eat a whole piece of ginger

[still tartan]

Shredded cheese just grab fistfuls out the bag

[brisk jasper]

I’d rather not

[undone moat]

actually? this was okay though

[still tartan]

I looove garlic. Haven’t gotten to use ginger much tho

[undone moat]

mind you it was pickled ginger but like yeah

[primal kelp]

that's different

[undone moat]

damb.

[still tartan]

ginger is also super good for ya in other news, eat food

[brisk jasper]

Mmmm bacon

I like bacon

[primal kelp]

issue is my mom really believes this and then overpowers perfectly good dishes with a load of ginger

[formal hawk]

I went to this restaurant in Miami FL and they went through a $15k wheel of Parmigiano Reggiano every week

[still tartan]

thats called planning ahead

[formal hawk]

But the cheese was delicious

They tossed the pasta in the wheels and served it right onto your plate

omw

[hazy rampart]

How were you attacked by an opera

[swift thistle]

I thought the opera channel was for grandparents

[dusty hedge]

I'd understand if you were attacked by the phantom of the opera but an opera itself? Attacked by a concept or medium or... a something or other?

[dry bison]

That's the thing. It might as well be a phantom. The name mentioned on the audio clip was Jean Valenius act 2 Opera and Gosha performed by the BBC Symphony Orchestra

I can't find any actual reference to that having ever happened.

No name. No opera. No performance by the BBC Symphony Orchestra of anything sounding similar.

I'm not saying it's a blatant false song made to feed the narrative presented by the meme, but I'm not saying it's not, either.

I'm relying on CC so the voice over could be wrong too and I'm mishearing the actual names

Though the radio says the conductor is Robert Talbot

That dude died in 1954

Well the Canadian one did....

Sir Robert Talbot the one in Ireland died in 1670

...and since the BBC Symphony Orchestra started in 1930....Hardly a chance they went back in time to be conducted by a dude that died hundreds of years before they existed

[hazy rampart]

Going hundreds of years back in time to find a conductor sounds like a great plan

[dry bison]

...Then to settle on some irish lad that thinks an auditory cacaphony is music...

Curious. Why is trap music called trap?

[hazy rampart]

It...

Traps your mind?

Or

Traps something

Apparently, at least according to wiki, it's because of the origins of the music in southern us

The genre gets its name from the Atlanta slang term "trap house", a house used exclusively to sell drugs.
