Are there borderless screen protectors just gone now? The one we were getting before. The protectors make the screen look like it has bezels like that of a cheap mid ranger and I hate that. Most "original" screen protectors costing 5k and above also have this, whats the purpose genuinely?

Literally, the heading text summarizes it perfectly. Don't tell anyone what you're doing for yourself, even if its small or even if its something big, don't tell them. If you're going to do something, keep it private. Speaking from first-hand experience, btw. When elders in my family used to tell me this, I didn't properly understand it, but now I for sure do. When I got super religious and with good intentions started telling my close family about it, I slowly started missing prayers, and now I completely have left prayers and religious practices. Also when I started to tell everyone that (with good intentions of course) that I use the internet for educational purposes and not for entertainment, I started doomscrolling and started using my phones for entertainment 💀 why would I tell them in the first place you might ask? To help them and make them improve their habits and improve with me, but I guess not everyone likes seeing you improve, so now I've completely stopped doing this. But I still suffer from the religious stuff, its been close to 1 year since I've prayed a single prayer, the guy that used to read fiqh books now doesn't even lay his head on the prayer mat every day, I used to love prayer but now I hate it for no reason at all 😣😣

I own an S25 and my brother owns a pixel 7 and I've seen the pictures on the pixel and then I try and take pictures with my S25 (outside in great lighting obviously) and the results aren't as good looking as the Pixel 7!? Like the pictures I take don't have that "yea thats a good picture I'll keep it" kinda vibe yk what I mean. I've looked up the "best camera settings for the S25" and done everything but it ain't as good as the Pixel 7, still. What could be the problem? Am I using the incorrect settings or it could be something else?

So there is this really close cousin in our family (khala ka beta) and I used to think that he was genuinely a good kid. We had kind of similar interests and was cool with him until a couple of weeks ago. Im 19 and he's 13. I'm starting to dislike him is because he's literally turning into a person who doesn't think before he speaks and is turning into another cousin who is.... let's just say uss ko tameeez hi nahi hai. So what happened was i was sitting with everyone and we were talking and on a specific topic he blamed me, but was obviously wrong and I didn't do that what he was blaming me for. I didn't say anything but he definitely pushed me to an edge. What he did (which he always does and I brush it off every time because he's my cousin) was he isn't sure about if what he talking about is true or not but says it with confidence and that "putting you down" smile people do, thats what he did and he embarrassed me in front of everyone which really pushed me and once he got out the room I was gonna brush it off but I chose to confront him. I gave him proof I didn't do it and put him in his place and didn't talk to him after. I even said your literally become like that cousin which you hated. I fully crashed out ngl and for some effing reason I feel bad now? Like when you give people space and be "cool" with them they suddenly think you dont have any boundaries? Have parents forgotten how to teach kids basic social skills?

This post is going to be long.

So I with my older brother, twin sister and our mother went to nadra to get me and my sister's ID Card made. It was literally our first time getting our ID cards made so I, before going read up by watching nadra's video on a step by step guide how to get your id card. Got all the necessary documents, double checked and went to the office. I told everyone what to do and what to keep in mind so something doesn't go wrong. We got our number tickets and sat down patiently waiting for when our number shows up. While we were there, I was trying to figure out (being a tech nerd) how are they running there systems? While I was figuring that out I noticed some weird glitches on the TV, it was showing errors and I looked at the counters there stuff was also malfunctioning 😭 now after a while they figured it out and the issue was fixed by restarting the whole system. My sister's turn was first so she went with our older brother.

Soon after my turn came and I went alone because I knew the process so no worries on my end. Got everything done and then at the end he called my mum and got their biometric stuff done. Once that was done he asked my mum " did you guys specify that my sister and me are twins on her card?" My mum said let me confirm and.... turns out that she did NOT specify. Mum asked her and our older brother and they said "he didn't even ask us that!" So now we were stuck there and had to do all the process again of my sister, because the person at the counter failed to read the Form-B and do his job properly we had to suffer. She got her ticket again and... there we were waiting for our turn. AGAIN!

While we were waiting the system shut down again! Wow very nice, we waited for a while and I finally got up and asked the guy on the counter he said " don't know when it'll get fixed, its up to you, if you want to leave your free to do so" while we were leaving my mum saw that guy that effed us up, she confronted him and said " we came here for the first time to get our id card made and you failed to even read or even check the Form-B" he knew it was his mistake so he eventually admitted but did not apologize (ego is a bih) and after that we left.

Once we got home I remembered that I need to pay the online fee of the id card (the guy said you xant pay here in cash youll have to pay online) so started following the steps which they told me to follow to pay the fee. The QR code was literally not working, I even switched apps and tried it with other devices but no luck.... my id card process was also not made properly because of there negligence. Remember the government is pressuring the people to get their stuff updated and get their id cards made before 30th June or "youll get fined😱😱" while failing to get there systems running properly or training there staff to read properly. Now we have to go again and waste our 5 hours there for no reason at all. Hopefully nothing will go wrong this time in sha allah. If there are spelling mistakes, apologies.

I'm using a stromfiber connection, at least right now, but I'm planning on leaving them and shifting to transworld or PTCL flash fibre. I want to get good used wifi 6 or 6E routers in lahore. Where should i look to buy them? Advice would be appreciated if I should go for a router upgrade or if the router they provide will work.

This is going to be a long post so buckle up!

I don't watch short form content and generally avoid it. The content i do watch is from my following primarily, the content on my feed i try to avoid. I'm talking about Instagram here. On YouTube the same rules apply, i only watch the people who i follow, I mostly watch content on YouTube because its long from and I've disabled the shorts section on my account. Now I don't just follow people randomly, there is a particular reason why I follow that person. This is my criteria for following a person. I'm learning something new or that which I can apply in my daily life, I'm getting exposed to information I didn't know before and they don't waste my time.

​

So I'm into couple of niches which I have spend alot of time learning properly and basically getting educated about that subject way more than a normal bloke. Here are my niches. Tech, health, cars, watches, self improvement, (i like to separate it because its so vast) Pc niche, politics and religion. Now I've spent alot of time learning about the basics and going to the enthusiast level of knowledge on all of the topics, in religion I've done my research on Islam, Christianity, etc. I've even read fiqh books by watch lecture. Making notes and stuff. I'm not bragging just stating the facts.

​

Now when I look around me (the people that I live with) most of them have absolutely no knowledge about any of these subjects yet talk about them as if they know it all! This makes me frustrated because when i tried to give them a proper detailed answer to the question they asked or were telling something in a group which is false I try to correct them, and they get frustrated and angry at me? I stopped correcting anybody and stopped talking to anyone on these because most people got mad and frustrated and taunted me, called me names etc etc.

​

I also noticed they people are not using social media for their benefit, but there decline. Doom scrolling, watching slop like movies, dramas etc. I used the internet for educational reasons while majority were using it for entertainment and pleasure.

​

Now there is one thing that is bugging me, I've gotten tired keeping up with all the information and its exhausting, but i have genuine interest in this but, there are some factors that I think are contributing to that. My studies are getting harder and harder, so I can't keep up easily and have to binge watch and read info to keep up and piled up is alot. Plus I'm starting college in a few months from now, and I know I will for not be able to manage my hobbies at that time. What can I do in this regard, getting older. Finding lesser and lesser time to keep up with my interests, wdyt?

I don't need sdd and gpu. What can I build with a 40k budget? No aesthetic or rgb cases or stuff like that.

I want this post to be a proper discussion threat of people who bought the pixel 8 to tell their experience with it so far. What issues you had to face, if you bought CPID, and the infamous green line issue (can't forget about that😬) so go at it.
