Reply to Is the 13 mini the right phone for me? by Epancho16
Screen brightness is THE biggest factor when it comes to battery life. But even keeping that down, I don’t think the mini is going to be a good fit for you. It wasn’t for me as even a bit of Pokemon Go was enough to put it at risk of needing a recharge when it wasn’t convenient.

Josh Hawley (ugh) wants to change it to 16. I’m pretty sure this genie is already out of the bottle. But we’ll do whatever we can to keep from addressing the root causes, like absentee parenting.

I have the 14 Pro… maaaybe should have gone for Max but have never used a phone that big! There are plenty of apps that do not account for the dynamic island unfortunately and cut into the graphics. But it’ll get better.
IsThisKismet t1_jaar7uv wrote
No. And I find the Dynamic Island somewhat useful even if it’s understandably underutilized.

Edge’s bookmarks reappear often after I’ve deleted them. I’ve tried many times to clear out my sync or cloud or everything. But the web browser is so good, I just accept that flaw.

The only apps I force close are games. And even then, I’m not entirely sure I’m supposed to do that.

I use Safari mostly on my phone and iPad, but Edge on my Mac Mini. I assume that even on MacOS it’s actually still Safari.

I am slightly guilty of bi-erasure. I am technically bisexual and not gay. But I feel like I favor one gender far more strongly than the other that if I say that, it would just hurt people.

Offenders are going to find out just how un-soft homosexuals can really be when push comes to shove. First, we’ll send out our Valkyries on Bykes. Then the Femboys. And if there are any left standing, we send in our most dangerous weapon of all: Bisexuals who are tired of bierasure!

I recently watched Leaving Neverland and the takeaway that I got (beyond the legalities of crimes that he was acquitted for) is that he broke their hearts. Not necessarily for doing the things they say he did? But because he replaced them. And that’s far more easily assured to have happened and still unforgivable.

I don’t even know what this means.
America has the most control over the entire planet. China is only doing what we do.

Do you really believe that?
China needs the US to buy their stuff. The US needs China to sell us their stuff.

Reply to comment by -FancyUsername- in Do I really need a new iPhone when still I love my 6s? by yxcvbna
If someone came up to me and asked if they should update their iPhone 6s, I’d say ‘yes’. And I’d tell them repeatedly that it’s because they are at the very end of support from Apple. I’d praise them for doing a good job of keeping hold of something for a long time and getting all the value out of it. But ultimately, no matter how much they love it, it’s needs to be replaced.
This goes for Android devices as well. While I’m not as up to date on how fragmented their updates are now, if they aren’t getting support for much longer, it’s time to go.
EDIT: That the original poster ALREADY bought the mini 12 further illustrates my point. They know it’s time.

Milo Yiannopoulos usually has a pretty awful hair cut. But note, I did say self-respecting and thusly he does not count.

I’m not on Facebook. But I do see elsewhere that I’m wrong. Which means, no one loved him anymore. Meth. It’s probably meth. It’s still has a gut wrenching hold on gay men.

I miss the ATL gay scene. Heretic in particular is one of the best nightclubs I’ve ever been to. Like, you get the whole experience there. Everything from good music, lights, DJs, leather shop, relaxed patio, and… spooky darkness.

There’s no way any self-respecting gay man would have that haircut. And even if he was gay, if he had any gay friends, THEY wouldn’t let him have that haircut.
IsThisKismet t1_iydfudn wrote
You can’t keep using the 6s. We all know this, including you. And, you’re right, it IS pretty sad to think that you’re losing your first device. But from a security standpoint, you can’t keep it much longer. You just can’t.
I think you either want the SE or the 13 mini. (The 13 mini is almost identical to the 12 but has the better battery life.)

I get that. 76% is already below the threshold for replacement recommendations. If you’re keeping the device, it’s what you’ll be doing then.

Reply to iPhone 12 battery replacement question by chuckhan66
The most notable thing about the 12 was that the battery life was ass. I don’t think keeping it for two more years is going to be much fun.
