What have you just bought?

M3 Macbook Air. Incredible screen, but OS is a little bit confusing coming from Windows and my limited experience with Linux. Fast af, but if a site has a lot of ads when browsing there is a slight delay. Also, not a big fan of keyboard key travel.

Anyway, I'm glad that there is a mainstream option to ditch Windows. I found alternative software for my work too. I just hope that I won't wake up one day to a damaged screen as some do, but I'll try to be very careful with it.

What made you want to move away from Windows?

Malware. Someone tried to take control of my computer and I saw it in weird computer behaviour and Windows logs.

Also, been getting cmd windows open themselves with weird prompts shortly after each startup.

And I'm like the most careful person when it comes to this stuff. Never clicked on a spam email. I used Malwarebytes and Bitdefender, but they found absolutely nothing.

Preordered these way back in ... March I think?

Another bigbox bargain added to the collection. Just fired it up and man, it's like stepping into a warm (well, freezing) nostalgic hug. The atmosphere, the music, the tactical combat ... pure old-school cRPG goodness. Nothing quite hits like rolling up a party from scratch and diving headfirst into the Spine of the World. It's aged like fine ale from the inn at Kuldahar. Anyone else revisiting it lately?

I just like reading The Legend of Drizzt books 👀
 
Bought some American Eagle tshirts for cheap weeks ago. Like 50% off. All I was doing was browsing a shopping mall one day and all the mainstream clothing sites seeing if any had tshirt deals. And just by luck, AEO was doing them and I bought some for around $12 apiece. Then I returned back to the shop recently to return one and saw on the wall a big Sweeney poster. lol

Didnt even know about the Sydney Sweeney ads and controversy till after I bought them. But what a looker. Big boner bonus!

Shit, that looks nice. I dont know anything about foldable phones, but I thought they were all foldable big book style where it becomes big almost like a mini tablet. I didnt know they had small ones like that now.

Also picked this up. How do you like it?

I'm from the era where calls were over when we shut the phone.

Only issue is that it doesn't seem to want to connect my calls to Bluetooth via Android Auto. Plays YouTube and music just fine but calls only work on the phone.

100% sure it's a software bug since it overrides the volume for the speaker phone also. The phone just got a new update so will check out if that fixes it today, otherwise it may be going back.
 
As a HUGE Fata Morgana fan, I can't WAIT

I've already placed my pre-order.

We're still on time, because after that, it'll be hard to get it like the 428 Shibuya Scramble.

The Demo is out in Eshop

I'm coming in from a Note 9. I wanted something new and modern without doing much damage to my wallet. I like the phone a lot, but I'm not sure how practical this clam shell phone can be.

I'm still trying to get used to it, interacting with the small screen in the front with messages, some light web browsing, Twitter and text messages. Its not perfect, but I can work for the most part.

When folded, it feels great in my hand. Its a very thin phone and the case I'm using is has a very thin profile. When opening it, I feel like it may slip through my fingers, so I have to be careful with that. I feel like the battery life is not to great or real upgrade from my previous phone.

I don't drive, so I don't know how Android Auto is supposed to work.

I disabled, or at least I think I did, all of the AI crap that I know I will not most likely use.

There is something that is really irking me though. The GPS. On my note 9, I always had my GPS on and I would get the little icon on my top bar to let me know when its being used when I use it. On the Flip 7, every couple of minutes, I get the GPS icon popping in and out. I don't know what app is trying to get a ping, None of my apps should use my GPS unless I have them open and I'm using it. I've gone through all the security and location options I can find. I've turned off options and even deleting apps to see if it was that particular app trying to access GPS. I can't seen to find any reason why my phone keeps getting pinged. I feel like now something is keeping tabs on me l and its making me paranoid lol. So for now, I just keep it off till I actually need it.

Other than that, I think its a nice purchase. In the next coming years, if I decide to go foldable again, I'm going to go with the Samsung Z Fold.

For some reason, I got the sudden urge to buy some Pokemon cards.

I ordered it online, because it's embarrassing to buy it in stores when you are over 25.

I read that Japanese cards are popular and cooler, so I got some Japanese Pokemon cards. They look nice, but I know nothing about Pokemon cards.

I started playing Pokémon tcg pocket on my phone, it has a great tutorial on how to play the game
 
Nice. I got mine on launch earlier in the year. My move from iPhone. Been super happy with the change and the phone. Enjoy!
I'm chuffed I got a 24 month contract with unlimited data, texts, calls and fully insured for £45 a month all in. If I was still with o2 I'd be paying nearer £70 a month with a 36 month contract I suspect.

even though I'm quite vocal about how much I dislike the overhype of DS games, I could not resist picking this up for £5 in a car boot sale. It's authentic too, has all the Kojima Productions packaging and tag.
