Which is the best phone: S20 FE 128Gb, Oneplus 8T 256Gb or Oppo Reno5 Pro PLUS 256Gb? Powered by SD 865, w/~6.5“ FHDs (90Hz Oppo, 120Hz 1+ & Samsung), the three are very similar and can all be had for 550€ +/- 15€ at present with either my mobile provider (S20 FE) or AliExpress (1+, Oppo).

What are the risks of using an Android phone that is no longer supported (say, Pixel 2XL, Huawei 20 Pro or Samsung S8+)? Not that I use one, but my family members do. Unlike me, though, they are not heavy users, but still, it makes me wonder...

Snapdragon S20 FE or Exynos S21, which is the better choice for us based in the EU? The latter is obv more expensive, but does its improvements over S20 FE really justify the price difference? Apparently, Exynos has improved over last year, “but...” What say you?

Writing about Yugoslav wars, Zizek spoke of the military-poetic complex: „The military-industrial complex has been remplaced, in post-Yugoslavia, by the military-poetic complex, personified by the twin figures of Radovan Karadzic and Ratko Mladic.“ Is this a fair assessment?*

To those courageous & resolute redditors in this sub who have risen from the abyss: what helped you most in the process of overcoming anhedonia (partially, at least)?

Which is the best way to deal with very dark & crippling anhedonia? I’ve started working out daily, abstaining from many things & waiting for the miracle to come (uridine+Citicoline+ω3+tyrosine+alcar+theanine+antioxidants)? With no support from family & friends, I fear “relapsing”.

Can I have a few servings of kidney beans per week, provided I’ve effectively removed wheat, oats, rice, lentils, soy, all sugar etc.? What about cheese such as parmigiano?
