@basedbagel I wish LG kept making phones, those were the best software wise.

@fal1026

AGREED. that was the beginning of the end.

The LG V20 was THE best smartphone of all time and that's a shame considering it's almost a decade old.

@basedbagel I still have the Stylo 3(or 4? Gotta look at it again), if something happens to my new primary, I can use the other on WiFi in emergency.

@fal1026
Smart move.

I have a backup Samsung for the same purpose.

These days it's essential to have a backup 📱 because you never know what may happen

@basedbagel I wish I was a tech head who could upgrade my own shit in terms of security updates that don't come anymore.

@fal1026

Unfortunately updates are only available via manufacturer unless you get a custom ROM.

Which they are making it harder to do.

The only reason I upgraded my phone 📱was for updates and I bought it used.

🖕 These Phone Companie$ milking us for overpriced products with less features

@basedbagel My mom's the most frustrated boomer, she keeps buying new phones cuz after a few updates they purposely fuck up the phone, she can't deal with it & throws it against the wall, wash, rinse, repeat.

@fal1026
Yup! That's by design.

If they cared all they would let you roll back to the last stable version.

If phone companies had their way you wouldn't even be able to repair your phone or buy it used.

You would just rent a new phone yearly for a monthly fee.

@basedbagel @fal1026 I last time bought phone it was xiaomi mi5

I now have xiaomi redmi 9 thx to brother who bought his phone and thx to his Tmobile he got xiaomi redmi 9 with it.

So he only wanted from me to buy him protective glass on his phone.

I do not see reason to spend much on phone.

When I only use it for calling or messaging basic stuff and use it for watching videos, listening to music and visiting websites.

So these can be easilly done with cheapest cellphones on the market.

@basedbagel @fal1026 So I do not see the reason why I should invest too much in to phone.

So why not get it cheaper.

When it is better to replace it than to repair.

@fal1026

In the US a 📱 is a status symbol and you can get ghosted by girls for not having an iPhone SMH 🤦‍♂️

@basedbagel @Stahesh Yeah they're fake & gay like that, doesn't surprise me, I tell people to their faces that their iPhones are the Nike shoes for niggers in the 90s.

You're a bold man @fal1026 i still like to fuck so I play it cool.

Already almost lost a job talking about fight club.

These days I ghost in plane sight

@Stahesh

@basedbagel @Stahesh Most women these days annoy me or disgust me, the ones I'm attracted to are already doing what they're supposed to with another man. I work in hotels now, & I'm closer to what Fresh & Fit show people on their podcast. In the neighborhoods outside of downtown Miami everyone is old as fuck, or going to HS, there's no in-between.

@fal1026 @basedbagel @Stahesh
You're ready to upgrade your level to Ubermensch. Get yourself a sex doll waifu with spinning robot pussy and try the new AI chatbots if you need communication.
Leave meatbags behind and become the man you don't even know you can be.

@Zeb

I'm roughly in the same boat I can't help it my sex drive is TOO strong sometimes and I force myself to go out.

Where I'm at most women are old/obese or crazy.

I find some good ones but theu het locked down QUICK.

it's slim pickings and tough competition out here

@fal1026 @Stahesh

@basedbagel @fal1026 @Stahesh
Why haven't you got a sex doll yet? Give it a try. They are not that expensive.

@Zeb @basedbagel @fal1026 I would not mind one.

But I live with parents so it would be a problem.

@Stahesh @basedbagel @fal1026
You can either come clean with your parents and have one or really work to live by yourself somewhere cheap.
You would be surprised how little money you need when you don't have a girlfriend or must go out chasing whores every week. Just learn how to cook and do the proper maintenance of the doll, you can pretty much survive on pennies.

@Stahesh @Zeb @basedbagel Work on getting whatever skills & plans together for surviving the impending collapse, make yourself capable, women will have to figure shit out for themselves to approach you when you're a competent man, don't chase women, & don't get caught up wasting money on sex bullshit.

@Zeb

@fal1026 @Stahesh

Unfortunately it just doesn't do it for me. (Though in this dating market I sure wish it did)

Also I'm in a unique position where fucking hoes is cheaper than a sex doll for me as long as I use a condom.

@basedbagel @fal1026 @Stahesh
Yeah, I gave up on hookers because I hate condoms. You don't need to use those with a sex doll.
That and women are very boring outside of sex, although I did enjoy some fun weekends with high-quality escorts a few times. Not all of them are boring.

@Zeb @basedbagel @Stahesh The sex aspect of desire goes only so far, it ramps down in your 30's especially when you're used to not getting any, & you feel the way I do looking for a wife, not a drama queen.

@basedbagel @Zeb @fal1026

With mentioning Ubermensch.

I think we are or we are close to crossroad of you being superhuman or subhuman.

Because now we can see people either follow or they find their own way.

I think we can see more clear line you are either trying to improve or you staying the same.

Most of the good quality women are not single for long time. So it is less likely to meet good quality women that is single.

@Stahesh @basedbagel @fal1026
You're right, but it has ALWAYS been this way. Good women have always been married off young or very young throughout history.
Those are her fertile years that she should always be having the men's children.

Ironically enough, women know instinctively the division between subhuman or superhuman. That's how they rate men for sexual reproduction. Men really have deluded themselves to a point that no one ever thought possible.

@basedbagel @Zeb @Stahesh This has been going on since I started actively looking in mid 2000's.
@Zeb @basedbagel @Stahesh Nah, I'm ready to move to another part of the country that isn't a major metropolitan area, the cities even in blood red districts are better, but not by much culturally, especially a port of entry like here, too many non-english speakers is another complaint.

@basedbagel @fal1026

status symbols are retarded

Often they are created by wannabe rich people. Who will waste their paycheck for things that are expensive to look like rich

Only now I saw something good from apple and it was apple vision pro

So I will wait to see something similar made by android companies

Because until apple will be more than for normie/NPC lvl users and next thing even in store you need to pay for everything and is more expensive because apple take money from creators

@Stahesh

@fal1026

> status symbols are retarded

Yes but sadly theyre very effective. Especially when it comes to attracting women.

I got a m1 MacBook to make videos on and while I don't regret it I will admit it was WAY overpriced for what it was

@basedbagel A leash in my country most of used smartphones were The result of arm assult I wouldn't support that industry
