There is a reason quartebacks don’t return kicks and linebackers dont play wide receiver. They followed their natural genetic build and skillset to become the best at what they are built to do.
Samsung has been a fuckin train wreck with every single piece of fuckin software they touch. They used to make amazing hardware products and I was their #1 fan 20 years ago. Then they started embedding software in every cunthole they can shove their tiny dicks into and first I stopped buying their TV because the volume button on the remotes hat an embedded feature that when pressed down/in instead of up or down (like the sticks on video game contorll3rs) it backed you out of fuckin everything and launched the fuckin atrocious built in samsung broadcasted tv. Not cable, not anything you plug in or choose. No it takes you to a tv broadcasts only shows that noone will pay to watch. Then it was laptops then its now about to be my fuckin ZFold-5 that AGAIN is the best piece of mobile hardware ive ever owned. Indestructible, blazing fast typing speed with full qwerty keyboards like the good Ole cellphone days, beautiful display, beautiful cameras. It really is my favorite thing ive ever had ruined. They just facefuck shitty software onto of shitty software into everything they can. I MEAN PERFECT EXAMPLE AND TIME TO STOP WAS WHEN EVERYONE SAID FUCK YOU TO THEM MAKING FUCKBOOK A BUILT IN APP. Fuck samsung right in their fucking fuck hole

I tried the expedition 33 game but couldnt get into it quick enough so I just refunded it and scooped a bunch of better priced steam sale games. Any one here stick around with the game long enough to convince me why I made an ill-guided choice?
- Comment on What do you think makes someone a "Father figure?" 1 week ago:
Having kids makes drives the father figure template. It fuckin changes people. You might think someone shouldnt be a dad after them already being balls deep in kids but that same person before they had kids was so much less fatherly than the person you see today. No even saying for the better or worse or whatever. I just know from seeing it happen to most of my 50+ 1st cousins and 1st cousins once removed (kids of 1st cousins). Kids will not stop even when you are tapping out begging for mercy bargaining away anything you can to get them to just…chill. But they dont fuckin care. They do not have the capability of caring. So they do not fuckin stop. And im not saying adhd bouncing off the walls, im just saying at baby age it could be a touth coming in or ear aches and BAM father figure of the year has slept 3 hours in 3 days. Toddler… yeah ok even the best behaved toddler is still a walking talking monster with no concept of what will and will not hurt them. Then the kids only get smarter and more devious and more willing to challenge you when you are being fatherly.
There is nothing in the world that can mimic the toll being an actual father does to a person. The most fatherly father figures I can picture are the men who have made it to the finish li e that is grandkids. Its the best part of having kids.
But thats just my empirical 2 cents from growing up in a large family and made it past the ages of worrying I might become a father someday lol.

- Comment on Are you familiar with that thing where you eat popcorn and you get a tough little piece lodged way back in the depths of your mouth right by the base of your tongue? 1 week ago:
The similar material type as popcorn seeds but isnt the seed but the casing around apple seeds. If I dance with the devil and bite too deep into the core of an apple ive gotten that seed casing stuck on my tongue or between my teeth the same way the shell of a popcorn seed will.

100% did the same thing on the charging port for my infrared scope after the rubber connecting it to the scope, snapped. $1,300 scope saved by a tiny rubber plug you prolly cant even buy one at a time anymore now that the penny is gone lol (not that you ever could just saying they could be more than a penny each to make.)

That is not how Verizon stores work in the US. They dont even fuckin carry Samsung OEM charging blocks at my local Verizon wireless store. They havent done anything tech support related in a very long time. You basically go there for them to use your phone to call their customer/technical support to ultimately tell you to take it to a You Break IT We Fix IT store.

As I told another person with similar reply, the purchase was for the adhesive plugs to prevent this from happening in the future as i prepped to buy a new phine but the plugs happened to come with a jankey cleaning kit and turned my frown upside down. The plugs are as much of the take away as the cleaning the port.

I mean I feel like your response says more to the polarity of lifestyles between the two of us than anything. Your go to top of the head way of getting dirt in a phone’s port was rolling in the mud? Lol
How about sawdust from sanding 1,200 feet of cedar. Or literal piles of dirt amd leaves covering stored acorns when im brushing off the seat of my tree stand for the 1st time in the past 9-10 months. Or flipping a breaker in my basement that was built in 1890 and basically a hole in the ground. Thats all happ3ned in the past week and a half or so. Extrapolate that over 1 to 3 years and you have yourself a good collection of dust particles getting compacted down with each time it gets plugged in.

So the amazon purchase was for the silicon plugs on a flap that adheres to your phone so it’s always plugged. As preparation to buy a new phone. It just happened to come with this lanky little cleaning kit. But the plugs are just as big of a takeaway as the cleaning.
Dare I say a classic 1-2-punch with corrective maintenence followed by pr3ventative maintenence!

So you missed the part where I explained I need it for my constant glucose monitor which perpetually drains my phone battery creating the whole battle of the port?
Or you saying im not being a risky enough diabetic leaving my phone out of Bluetooth range for the 8 or more hours it takes to charge a zfold5 on a wireless charging pad? Cuz say the word and ill go hypo-g right the fuck meow, son. /s hahaha

Cheese and rice theres a lot of responses jumping to accusations of people too lazy but I’ve never heard someone too lazy to clean a phone port for $1000 savings.
100% of the people im surrounded by in my family/friends would be to afraid of breaking it beyond trade in value towards the new phone. My case was extreme but since the screens got better id have to guess charging issues is up there for one of the biggest reasons people trade their phones in.

I mean I cant speak for the fancy new oil-less compressors but dont you lubricate your compressor and run oil thru the lines to protect your tools and prevent broken airlines?
Plus the chance of forgetting to lower the psi before spraying the port cuz I’ve never done that ever before 🤣 idk man, id prolly test it first on an old broken screen phones before I started blasting phone holes lol.

My phone is a Galaxy Z-Fold5, not new but not old enough for me to replace since the Fold7 just shipped.
Was hell bent sure the issue causing my phone to begin not accepting charging cables* was something Samsung was doing with their software updates. (*It charged fine with contactless chargers if youre ok with it taking 10-14 hours to charge)
It was too much of a coincidence that the phone charged 100% fine with any and all cables. Download a software update (not android update, this was samsung delivered update) phone doesnt charge with a cable after that for 2-3 weeks. Im T1Diabetic who uses wifi connected glucose monitor, so it fuckin drains battery juice 24/7 with very little setting controls to mitigate it. So I spent 2-3 weeks battling with it to charge on charging pads.
Didn’t change a thing with what I was doing and BAM another Samsung update, weirdly close to the last update and fuck me running if the phone didnt start charging very very tenderly with charging cables again.
Eventually figured fuck it, if its hard to do the phone is broke if its easy enough to do then maybe it will help and bought a pack of adhesive rubber type C port plugs from Amazon that came with a super cheap cleaning kit. It wasnt anything special. It came with the picture pointed and spaded q-tips, a flexible wire brush, then I used my own zip tie that I shaped, a sim card tool and a cloth for cleaning glasses. AND WENT TO FUCKING TOWN.
Everytime you plug in your charger to your phone, any dust that is in there is getting buttfucked into the back of the phone’s charging port like its a muzzleloaded gunpowder. Lol a bit hyperbplic but you get the point.
Finished cleaning the port. Plugged it in. First fuckin try, no fighting it, now switching chargers, no “charging but not fast charging” bullshit. No more voids in guessing my blood sugar. No more watching tv holding charger into phone. AND $1,000+ THAT IS STILL IN MY FUCKING ACCOUNT.
I gotta assume this is the #1 driver for phones needing to be replaced ever since the screens stopped shattering everytime you sneezed. The adhesive rubber plug is amazing. It is hardly noticeable and stays in the charging port even with my opening and closing of screens. It never pops out.
Honestly the smartest $10 I think I may have ever spent.
TLDR: Phone not charging? Buy $10 type C cleaning kit from amazon, watch 5min video on tips for cleaning, clean charging port for night and day results. Not difficult, very hard to fuck up your phone unless you jackhammer the port cleaning it. Saves you the cost of a new phone.
And obviously this isnt a fix all for all charging issues.

- Comment on How do I finally get a long term career and become financially independent? 4 weeks ago:
Heres my 37 year old experience of adhd fueled emoloyment experience with no higher education. Not sure what the fuck DL is but it gives insight to your intelligence for assuming anyone will know what the fuck DL is so the list is adjusted accordingly. Take tons of adderall so my work ethic is amphetamine driven and it usually took 3 to 5 years to go from zero experience to hitting a ceiling. Only career paths I didnt progress all the way thru is nursing but gave example of path every nurse I know took who made a career out of it amd advanced their education. Each degree level comes with massive pay increase opportunities. The highest ceilings are Nursing, Procurement and IT. The most secure single certification lifelong careers Linesmen and Machinist. Fastest career path to the grave or being/feeling like youre famous: chef.
Machinist: 3 month certification class. Employers often pay for the class if you agree to work for them on completion.
CNA: 3 month cert. Again, enployers often cover course costs. Good experience towards, which employers also usually offer tuition reimbursement, nursing degrees which have very high ceilings d3pending on type of nursing degree you have. Can go for 2 years, work, need more money, go for 2 more years, work for more money, need more money, go to school for 2 more years, work for more money… Basically all the way from LPN up to Nurse Practitioner who are basically doctors.
Linesman: 2 year degree. Union. Work for local electrical department with government pension/benefits.
IT certs from Cysco: cheap, free courses available, most places will accept in place of degree fields without paying outrageous tuition for degree.
Classically trained chef: apply to any metropolitan restaurant, work your way up from dishwasher to sous chef with no prior education or experience. Must be able to handle high stress high demand work environment. Must be extremely competitive and good at doing drugs and drinking.
Procurement: basic understanding of relevant software and commercial purchasing. Starting employment usually begins with incoming sales and processing orders.

You’re welcome to disagree with a bad law
You’re picking up what im putting down lol. Didn’t mean to say I was disagreeing with what youre saying just in this case especially:
It’s not your responsibility to close the doors, but it is your responsibility not to walk in an open door and take something that’s not yours
Where I’ve paid for each new pc build to just have a blank slate and not carry over my digital footprint for microsoft from one build to the next. Also, tho, im not taking what isnt already mine, im just using a work around for dealing with microsoft’s atrocious customer service.
Again, not saying this will hold up in a court of law, jist saying I dont lose any sleep over it.
Bonus rationalization: fuckin outlooks locked in and un-adjustable junk mail filters have auto filtered Microsoft own emails for upcoming annual Office invoices to my junk folder that I used to rarely check before getting slammed with over a $100 charge for Office eliminating my ability to use the email reminders as notification to cancel my subscription cuz even if you paid for a year of Office but wanna cancel a month into the year so you dont forget, microsoft says naaaaaaa you lose the remaining 11 months of paid software access.
- Comment on Windows 10 IoT LTSC 2021...'has reached end of support' warning (?!) 1 month ago:
Id disagree. Its not my responsibility to close all their doors that are accessible to the public. Microsoft provided all the tools to use their software without their involvement. As a US citizen, I’m liable for my own negligence and/or ignorance. Corporations are pegally protected under corporate personhood so the same liabilities affect them too.
