You can donate blood in 20 minutes. It takes an hour plus to donate plasma

Am I going to sit in a chair for an hour plus without any compensation? Maybe once or twice here and there. But you can donate plasma at least twice a week.

It requires two donations for a single unit. If you donate once and don’t donate the second, then your first donation is unusable. You have to get them to donate twice.

When I was donating plasma, it paid about $75 for each donation. 50 first, 100 for second. The money is pretty good. $300 a month is a lot for a lot of people.

If you didn’t compensate people for plasma donations, a lot wouldn’t do it. They currently need more people to donate.

Plasma “donation” is a good thing.

You ask Chat GPT a question it is going to answer it becomes that’s what it has been programed to do. Input question, output answer.

Now if Chat GPT could be like “Nah I’m not going to answer that because I don’t feel like it”

Yes “AI” can be programed to not answer certain things. E.g porn stuff. But it does not make the conscious choice to do so it is following programming.

Disagree.

You can get all the practice you need during school hours.

Maybe we should stop learning about the Ming dynasty and memorizing the Canterbury tales if we needed more time for math practice.

Type in your settings search bar “Swipe down for Notification Panel”

There should be a setting to turn on

On my s22+ you can double tap the power button to open up the camera or any app that you’d like automatically.

Motorola shake flashlight was the best. Just a quick chop chop and you’d have a light

I now have a little flashlight button on my lock screen I can slide to turn on the flashlight. Not as convenient but way better than not having it there.

Best feature in a phone is the Motorola shake flashlight

According to the A32 5g user manual it is possible to turn on the feature.

Settings, Display, Home Screen, Swipe Down for Notification Panel

I would have thought every Samsung device had it

Try searching for “Swipe Down for Notification Panel”

S22+

I can drag my thumb down anywhere on my home screen to bring down the notifications. Then notifications are in bottom 2/3 of screen.

There is hardly a reason I need to reach the top 1/3 of my phone

Something like typing in a URL in a web browser

But that small inconvenience where I have to shift my hand isn’t worth me losing a big screen

I can still do everything one handed

My girlfriend loves her iPhone mini

She has small baby hands

I can curl my fingers over the tops of hers if we matched up hands

Mini feels so small in my hands and I don’t know if it’s just the different keyboard, but I can’t type on it very well

So I could even see that as a downside of me going to a smaller phone

I have a s22+

I always get told I have piano fingers

I used to use a popsocket, but I switched to a phone wallet

Back, Home, and Recent tabs are all on the bottom with a simple swipe up.

I keep my phone resting on my pinky

With it like that, my thumb can reach 2/3 of the way to the top.

Placing my pinky under the phone, I can reach my thumb to the top left corner.

Most of the time, I never need to reach up there

But as for typing, I typed this whole thing one handed

I enjoy the big screen

Getting a new card will temporarily drop your score a few points.

If you’re like me that charges everything to a credit card, then you need a lot of available credit to keep the credit utilization low. You want it below 10%.

High credit utilization is going to drop your score more than opening a new card.

Say I have 1 card that has 15k limit. If I spend 10k on it. I have a 66% credit utilization. My score would be horrible.

Now, if I get 7 cards and each have 15k limits. If I spend 10k on them then I have less than a 10% credit utilization and my score would be good.

Can I get 1 or 2 cards that have credit limit of 105k. Yes. But I have found increasing limit is harder than getting a new card.

With a new card you can get 0% apr which is free borrowing of money for 12 to 15 months.

You can get a welcome bonus which are usually very good.

And you can set it up so that you might be getting more rewards like 5% cash back on dinning or other things that another card might not give.

Getting more cards has it’s advantages
