Counterpoint: I haven't ever plugged my phone in to charge. The USB C port is now full of lint and crud. It definitely wouldn't work for headphones with an adapter. A headphone jack would still work if I had one. If it didn't work a toothpick could clean it out. I have a stylus inside my phone instead which I use once every few months.
What I'm trying to say is that I don't think phones should have any ports. A micro SD card spot next to the SIM card inside is everything necessary. Wireless charging doesn't require you to hold the phone and cable at the right angle for the charging to happen. Just drop it on the charger and forget about it. Hell, they build wireless chargers into couches and tables now. I have a portable speaker that does wireless charging. That's true wireless charging. I could charge my phone in a hurricane.
I know this is unpopular opinion but using the charging port for anything but charging or the occasional data transfer is unnecessary wear. I could never deal with "hold the charge cable at juuust the right angle" again. It starts going bad and you get to see it getting worse until you can't trust it charging and you buy the new phone you've been thinking about for months now. The USB C port in my phone is where I keep my collection of pocket detritus and I wouldn't miss it if it was gone.
I'm fingerprint banned from reddit now. I worked tooth and nail making thousands of frivolous reports via browser after the API thing. If I'm not mistaken mods used 3rd party apps to help with moderation. I figured I'd make being king of shit mountain a little more of a headache since those tools were out too.
I'll peek in on reddit every once in a while. I clearly don't have an account there so the front page garbage is what shows up. It feels like the internet version of walking down a coast with a beached whale carcass rotting on it. Once majestic, the bloated carrion now serves as a feeding ground for vultures and bottom feeders. The smell is awful. The beach volleyball area is clearly full of bots who have no sense of smell. The beachgoers there for a day at the beach either don't realize or don't care that their beach is littered with poop all over in the sand.
I appreciate your advice and will do that as soon as new job insurance kicks in but I am a sweat machine doing a physical job in increasing heat. Its a birth defect I was born with that had pediatricians warning my parents it could be a sign of cystic fibrosis. I am in OK condition currently and far past the CF terminal years. Back in gradeschool I would have salt on my cheeks after recess from dried sweat.
If I step out of my fan zone at work I'll be sweating in under half a minute and beads will roll off my face two minutes later. I've been wearing my winter coat at work in the heat to remain comfortable while in the fans. I am not always standing in my fans.
I also started back on nicotine vapes. Everybody at work smokes cigarettes and I'd rather have firsthand smoke as opposed to secondhand smoke. When in Rome and all. It sucks and isn't the wisest life choice but that's the breaks.
Thanks again for your concern. If I didn't have a litany of ways to lose weight going on I'd be more worried. I'm not doing anything I don't have to do to lose it. I was over 200lbs from being a couch potato for a year. Now I'm only a potato 2 days a week and I bought a new chair.
I drink as much water as I can handle at work so I can go take a leak and have my phone out and not risk getting in trouble with the boss. I don't eat breakfast or lunch. Since starting work 3 months ago I lost 30lbs. I'll eat anything for dinner and I haven't been trying to lose any weight.
I will add that moving to first shift after over a decade of second shift has been hard on my system and I've vomited in the mornings before work more often than not. It's like clockwork. I have learned that I've got a window of about 4 hours after work during which I can eat. Sticking to that keeps morning nausea at bay thanks to an empty stomach in the morning.
Anyways water is great. The other guy at work brings cases of bottled water which I try to understand. The water quality here is quite good and a majority of my water at work comes out of the tap. I have no complains and I wouldn't spend a dime more than I am now for what I get in addition to microplastics.
Thanks. I'll have to try my hand at it with cakewalk settings and see if I can make any progress. Now I'm hoping my game saved before that fight and I don't have to find my way back to where it is. No difficulty slider can make that easier.
Sometimes I screenshot and crop a picture I want to save if there is no alternative to saving it as a .webp
