Well, hypothetical speaking, if there were two completely absolutely identical jobs, but the one had a ping pong table. I might choose the one without and ask them to get a Foosball table, since I'm no good at ping pong.

I altered the deal, pray I don't alter the deal further?

It's a bad bonus if you don't have space for a ping pong table. Speaking from experience, I got a free ping pong table for Christmas once...

True that! I have some awesome looking denim pants, that are literally painted with colorful paint. I always get compliments from both men and women when I wear them. I also got them basically for free at the store, since no one were buying them.

But, they're about as comfortable as you would expect denim pants painted with thick paint to be: stiff and scratchy.

Probably Tate or someone similar 🙄

Tl;dr: I highly doubt that's the source of your problems.


Oof, man I'm sorry for your experience and I'm sorry the quality of replies you're getting is so.. Shit.

How do you know you've been inhaling this for so long?

Burning plastic can be bad, in addition to the chemicals "Remotelove" noted, there's a whole bunch of potential organic compounds created in the burning process. Exactly which ones depends on the type of plastic, temperature and how much oxygen is available. At complete combustion you'd basically just get CO2 and O2, but at less than optimal conditions you can get a variety of products (think ash). I'd be mostly worried about any carcinogenic products though, since a significant amount would be PAH's (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Polycyclic_aromatic_hydrocarbon).

Now, for something you ingest to have a long term effect on your brain, it must (generally) somehow be able to get into your brain and your brain is pretty well protected by the blood-brain-barrier. Hypothetically a non-polar product from the burning plastic could cross over into the brain and mess shit up, but the chances of that are slim. And you'd also need to inhale enough of the smoke, for there to be an effect.

Listen, I'm not saying definitely not, but I'd be very surprised if that was the case here. I highly doubt that you have been breathing in thick, black smoke, so the amount of "brain damaging" molecules you've been breathing in is probably pretty low. Mutagenic or carcinogenic, sure possibly, but I wouldn't worry too much about that either. I imagine you've inhaled way less than if you were smoking a cigarette daily.

I suggest you try to think of other causes, a lot of things can play a part in "feeling more dumber er", like depression, lack of sleep, stress, unhealthy eating, lack of physical exercise etc.

I enjoy Connect, fast and works well!

But I like lemons!

Yeah, on Android 12 I can only choose between "randomized MAC" and "phone MAC". Doesn't specify if it's randomized per network or connection, but I'd guess it's per network.

Check out Chronicle: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=io.github.mattpvaughn.chronicle Haven't used it much, but my experience has been flawless.

There's also Bookcamp: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=app.bookcamp.android, but I think that's subscription based.

Wait, inserting the SIM card WIPED the phone!? That's insane!

RCS depends on having mobile data, right? What happens if I send a RCS message to someone without data? For me SMS has been a backup solution if I need to be sure the recipient receives the message immediately.

Dammit, you beat me to it!

It sounds like fear mongering, because it is! Completely unnecessary at that.

Hey, cool! It's here on Android 12 also! I take it as the network has to support randomization though, so it won't work in all networks?

A burnt cable smells nasty and a strong whiff of it can be overwhelming, sure. There's not much I can do for you without physical access to the cord, unfortunately. And even then there's not much I could do, without you getting a physical check-up with blood work.

My advice is to as soon as possible make an appointment with your doctor and explain your symptoms and time-frame, bring the cord along and ask for advice. The doctor will probably want to do blood work first of all and maybe brain scans etc to rule out medical issues.

I saw you're quite young and I know going to a doctor can be both scary and expensive, but from the symptoms you have described I urge you to get professional advice and help.

Good luck friend, I hope you feel better soon!

Had a summer job as a customer service agent for a big company, and pretty much did work 8 hours non stop, the phones were ringing constantly. I had two 5 minute breaks that I could take whenever and one 20 minute break that I had to take at a set time. The break time wasn't payed, so you ended up having to be there for 8.5 hours. It was very stressful, but it kinda helped that every customer had a new problem, so it wasn't very repetitive.

Now I some days take longer and other days shorter, to accomplish from home what I could've gotten done working from the office.
