Imo Dead Space was the last decently made mobile game. After that the F2P craze started and never stopped.

Sorry for my misconception! I don't think you'll necessarily have to move to Apple products at all. If I were as tech enthusiastic as I were back in the days I would probably still use Linux and Android. I don't like fiddling around with systems anymore and have to work between multiple devices because I spend a lot of time commuting by train, work at home and mobile. My work environment is pretty heavy on apple proprietary formats so that's another reason.

I don't understand. Are you sarcastic? I'm not here to reproduce Reddit antics, so I would like to stick with a constructive discussion if you don't mind. If not, consider this conversation to be over.

Neither Ubuntu, Fedora, nor Mint, XFCE or KDE did it for me.

Don‘t get me wrong: I avoided Apple for right around two decades now and just made the switch in the last couple of years because I got fed up with all the issues I kept fighting. Of course it’s a pretty personal question what you need in a device and what your priorities are. There’s never a simple answer to that. And priorities change over the years, just like mine did.

I don’t like that an iPhone is the best solution for my use-case. But it objectively is.

You can say whatever you want about Apple, but no one else has build such a fluid, easy-to-use and interconnected ecosystem as they did. I tried to achieve a similar experience with my former androids, but there are always issues: laggy synchronization, multiple apps necessary, difficult setup, manual data transfer. Just to name a few. Now I can download a file on my phone, edit it on my iMac and continue on my MacBook without any hassle.

As much as I get your frustration, we should never wish death upon anybody.

Oh my bandmate uses these, yeah they do their job well enough. I use the same strap for several instruments so something else might be better.

It didn't break "per se", but the lock slips out of the pin after a minute or two. Guess it's worn out?

Everything aside the frets is easy and low effort. But without experience on a cheap guitar I wouldn't put my hands on the frets, especially if you have neither a fret press nor have done a few fret jobs before. You could get your hands on the right tools and buy some cheap, used, necks and learn the process or find a luthier. Fretwork and swap (depending on the amount that have to be exchanged) goes for around 400€ upwards where I live. You might get away with recrowning the frets and adjusting the nut one last time though, they look like they could tolerate one last fret job before they are finally worn out.

We are social creatures and there's just so much you can handle on your own. I wonder what your point of view is about Friendship. What do you consider as a friend? What does make a friend? Genuinely curious.

Man, those are real friends right there. I’m sorry for your loss.

This is such an honest and sad statement that I wish was wrong, but isn't. Whenever I try to open up to another guy, even some of my best friends, they just can't relate, or make me feel understood, I should say. Talking about depressions and anxiety with another dude feels like chatting about mathematical equations instead of being there for one another. It hurts, but I can't change it.

Oh okay! Sure you can, but I doubt I could be of much help I'm afraid. But I would try to!

I agree, especially how honest people seem to be. I wish I could hug everyone in here and tell them it's okay to be sad.

I get withdrawal symptoms on a regular basis. Cold sweat, ravenous appetite, weak limbs, shaky hands. It's horrible, really.

If you really feel that way, don't be afraid to seek professional help. It can only get better. Hope you'll get better soon!

If you're offering help: Much appreciated, but I'm pretty stable lately. I was just wondering who I would reach out to in a major crisis and who you folks rely on.

Our minds work in mysterious ways, that’s for sure. I‘m thankful that I haven’t hit rock bottom for quite a while. It doesn’t hurt to know whom you can reach out to when you do though.
