Computers and stuff...

[guerney]

That's quite a question, I mean, who on earth wants to have healthy, adaptive functioning, to fit in to the mad world were in (aka good mental health)?

I hesitate to continue questioning the notion of happiness, lest it evaporate or become opaque, which might ultimately instil a feeling of slightly nagging guilt to lower my mood from an adaptive but unbalanced state which is open to manipulation by myself and others. Seems a package deal which leaves me more to compute through, but it's nice that it avoids being in a state of excessive inertia. Happiness really is quite overrated IMHO and presents unnecessary hazards of it's own. Glad I'm not happy, it's upsetting.

Nothing needs to change if you need the eggs.

I knew someone who had his reversed too far. I did wonder why there were so many electric heaters going full pelt in his shop one hot summer, as he struggled to use up enough electricity.

Saw youtube yesterday of bloke crossing atlantic on a very basic hurley 18, and having what appear quite momentous, intense moments of life, so clearly one doesn't need many or big eggs. But, happiness can be an elusive thing, in my line of work an assumption is that it's about attachment (psychopathology is the study of loneliness), but (as a brief look at the news testify), attachment isn't at all straightforward.

Great!

They'll make turdphobic coatings for those someday.

Oneplus use Samsung panels, but support their devices for years longer (that's why I buy Oneplus), although that may be changing. Samsung - great hardware, crap for updates.

fkn thing was working fine the other day and now bricked and no internet

My Kobo Arc HD 7" Android tablet was killed remotely by Kobo, this was confirmed by Kobo support. Sign into Kobo servers is required before boot-up, and their upgraded servers don't and will never support the old sign in security standards. I can't even get into Fastboot mode to flash on LineageOS. Bricked. Mass intentionally created ewaste like this should be a criminal offence. Profoundly irritating, as it was a bloody useful tablet with a truly fantastic IPS full HD screen.

If it boots and gets to that stage, attempt to get an exchange voucher at Cex ASAP before their testing guide for it updates? Or attempt overwrite with LineageOS? Once flashed, Cex won't accept it even if you flash back to original (detectable). Cex vouchers are printed using disappearing ink by the way lol. It's thermal printing, and it's impressive that it fades after about two years - this must be by design, so it's best to retain photos of Cex vouchers to use online, for when their shops don't accept their own blank till printed and faded vouchers. I've never known thermal printing to disappear like that from any other company's tills.

[guerney]

Didn't you replace the battery of that phone a few months ago? Or was that another Samsung?

Nah leave it psychedelic, take a hit or stick a LSD tab under your eyelid... it'll help the hallucinations along.

Can't enjoy life without attachment - why isn't how we deal with detachment the problem? Aren't there 5 stages? I reckon there are the same 5 stages for all major detachments.

did a samsung note 10 charge port iphone xs down the bog and boot looping unplugged cams and face id and is still going and now a xr that needs new screen.
