  • Probably my favorite phone I’ve owned. The battery was shit though, before my 2 year contract was up the battery would die almost immediately if it was 30% or lower and exposed to cold temperatures for even a few minutes. Living in Northern Canada with long and cold winters made the phone unusable unless I carried a charger at all times during the last 6 months of my contract.

    Bring back the rear finger print scanner while we’re at it. Your screen would be unlocked and ready to use by the time you pulled it out of your pocket and it almost always worked flawlessly unlike the earlier in screen readers. My Pixel 6 felt like a 60-70% success rate on the first try.

    Just upgraded to a P9 pro XL cause my P6 got spicy pillow syndrome sadly but the in screen reader finally feels almost as good as the old rear scanners. Still have to wait till it’s out of your pocket to unlock it though :/

















  • Congrats! I enjoy my drinks a little more than I should, it’s hard to get past that feeling of “I’m bored, a few beers would be nice”. Seriously, good for you, I’m happy you finally beat it!

    Nicotine is hard because it doesn’t have such a strong effect on your life the way alcohol does and it’s (mostly) accepted as a vice that isn’t that big of a deal. No one at work is gonna judge you for having a vape/smoke break like they would if they smelled alcohol on your breath for example. It doesn’t make you hungover, or irritable, or tired because you stayed up to late etc. It simply becomes a part of your daily routine and that’s the hardest part about giving it up. I’ve been addicted to nicotine for 15 years now, 6 on smokes and 9 on vaping. Almost half my life at this point. I’ve tried 5 times to quit and I’ve never been able to make it past a week.
