and also because they continuously pick terrible candidates that don’t reflect most of the populations views. and then they go and nuke whichever actually progressive campaign they don’t like (sanders, hogg, etc).
to be completely honest, I think social media has less to do with it than most people are ready to admit.
other factors like usage time, intensity of use, and charging habits also have effects on the lifespan, so it’s hard to compare one person’s experience to a single other persons and draw a conclusion that’s anything other than anecdotal without some very specific controls.
what i do know for certain is that the heat generation from wireless charging has been long studied, and so has the effect of those heats on li ion batteries.

yes! heat is kinda the worst thing you can do to a battery. I’m not a chemist, but I believe the chemical reaction that charges/discharges a lithium ion begins to breaks down when performed in a heated environment, and I can confirm that consistent exposure to heat is how you get the really puffy spicy pillow batteries.
yep! it’s just less efficient than wired charging and whatever is lost in the process is turned into heat, which is particularly poor for your battery. batteries are consumables anyways and it seems like most people get it replaced at least once in a phones lifespan, so it doesn’t really matter if you’re ok with that. from my experience fixing phones over the years I can definitely confirm that using wireless charging consistently, particularly if you’re doing anything intensive at the same time, will lower the lifespan of your battery significantly.
what type of phone? I can gladly give detailed instructions on how to replace it if you want!
I think you could do this repair at home with no prior experience on a lot of androids. for an iphone you have to remove the motherboard though which is pretty obnoxious
increases strain on your battery tho
two things can be true.
yes, liberals are heinous with their policing of certain words, particularly when there are much bigger issues to address.
also, yes, calling people illegals is also dehumanizing. no human is illegal on stolen land.
whatever works best! it’s just kinda hard to find something plastic that skinny and sharp, and I use tweezers as it’s the most efficient (but also the most prone to damage if you make mistakes I guess).
starting with the brush/isopropyl is not a bad idea for cleaning the contacts (and should be the first thing tried if a device isn’t charging) but it usually doesn’t actually get stuff out of the port. if a port is only charging at a specific angle, it’s cause there’s debris stuck in there. in my experience it’s usually very hard to get with a brush as it’s been compacted and cemented over however long you’ve had the device.
it is frankly impressive how much debris a port can hold!
sharp pair of tweezers or a needle or a toothpicks should be able to help. tons of instructions on how to do it in this thread, but I will add my 2 cents as a phone tech and say that if it’s a lightening port, you want to keep your tool as vertically in the middle of the port as possible while scraping horizontally. for USBC, keep your tool as close to the walls as possible while avoiding the center “tab”. this is so you don’t scrape the contacts. if you do that, you will need a port replacement (usually 80-100$ on most devices). once you scrape as much as you can out. you can use an old toothbrush or whatever works to brush the port clean with some isopropyl to clean any dirt on the contacts, which will come off easily now that it’s not being supported but the other debris you cleaned out with the tool.
Futurama and avatar are endlessly rewatchable imo
labels are useless last a certain point. you’re you and that’s all that matters.
if you absolutely need to pick a label (for a doctor’s form or whatever) bi would be what I would choose since what they’re really asking there is what genders do you sleep with.

my profile very clearly said “trans woman” as my gender.
and yes, trans people have to be very careful with dating apps. so do all woman for that matter. but that shouldn’t mean we aren’t allowed to use them.
I got banned from hinge/tinder for the crime of… being trans.
turns out if enough terfs report your profile as “misrepresenting your identity” you’ll just get banned, no questions asked.
maybe their business model. trust me. they’ll find a way to monetize the zero click internet too. then it’s back to square one
oo I bet that rifle was beautiful. I’d love to have an older hunting rifle, there’s something about how they age that makes them gorgeous to me.
I had a savage .270, it was a smaller model they made especially for youth. loved that thing.

recently dealt with an issue at my parents house where whenever they connected the TV to the wifi, half the devices in the house would lose connection. turns out there was an instability in the Comcast router firmware and whenever the TV would connect it would crash everything else on the 2.4ghz frequency.
solution was to replace the router with one they owned instead of whatever crap they were leasing from Comcast.
