I can't be the only one who listened to all of them, right?

I used to help my grandma delete her wrongly sent messages when I visited her. Sometimes it was my cousins' certificates sent to the wrong group chats or something similar. You know what I mean, they’re private files that shouldn't be seen by the public. I used to delete those wrongly sent files from 2018 to 2025 by using these old tricks that never fail:

- Turn on Airplane Mode on your phone immediately to cut off internet and Wi-Fi.

- Go to your phone's Settings and find Date & Time.

- Turn off Set Automatically and manually change the clock back to the exact date and time the old message was originally sent.

- Force-close and reopen WhatsApp, then go to the specific chat.

- Tap and hold the old message, select Delete, and tap Delete for Everyone.

- Turn off Airplane Mode and restore your correct phone settings.

There's even a YouTube video explaining the methods needed for this: https://youtu.be/FtQQDturAfM?si=D9I18Kw6gvJ8Qd9j

So today, here's the problem. My grandma made the same mistake again, and I can't even delete the file anymore because this time, in 2026, WhatsApp automatically tells the account that the date and time are not correct and stops working. This prevents me from deleting the file from a month ago when I wasn't there to unsend it immediately.

My grandma definitely knew how to unsend a file because I taught her how to do it, but she thought the month before that she wanted to send the files. However, she recently changed her mind, so I couldn't help her like the usual times when I come to visit.

Any help or explanation is very much appreciated.

Dear Grandma, if you read this, I didn't write it to make fun of you or anything. I just wanted to find some help from the internet. I love you so much, Grandma. I wish you a long, blessed, and happy life. Amen.

I identify as a mecha and nature enjoyer.

Some people definitely remove panel lines on their Gunpla, whether for anime accuracy with bigger scales or better proportions than the HG, but I'm curious about your opinions.

Here's an example of how someone remove some panel lines to make it more anime accurate

To give you a better idea of how tall they should be, here are their actual heights and corresponding heights at 1/144 scale:

- Gundam X: 17.1 m in real life → 11.9 cm at 1/144 scale

- Gundam Airmaster: 17.2 m in real life → 11.9 cm at 1/144 scale

- Gundam Leopard: 16.8 m in real life → 11.7 cm at 1/144 scale

- Daughtress: 16.3 m in real life → 11.3 cm at 1/144 scale

- Gundam Leopard da Vinci: 16.8 m in real life → 11.7 cm at 1/144 scale

I used to get annoyed when mobile suits didn’t scale properly with each other. But when you want the best possible scale model of each of your favorite mobile suits, they’re often not available in the same scale. So I’ve learned to make peace with it and just enjoy their designs, even if they aren’t properly scaled.

I used to get annoyed when mechs didn’t scale properly with each other. But when you want the best possible scale model of each of your favorite mechs, they’re often not available in the same scale. So I’ve learned to make peace with it and just enjoy their designs, even if they aren’t properly scaled.

Unfortunately, the method for reducing the height was not explicitly mentioned. Would anyone happen to know how this can be accomplished?

The F91 is canonically 15.2 m tall, so its height should be 10.5 cm in 1/144 scale. However, the HGUC is 11.5 cm instead, making it 1/132 scale. Even a difference of 1 cm in a 1/144 scale miniature can be significant.
