Exatamente a 10 anos atrás era lançado oficialmente o ios7, sistema operacional dos iPhone, e na época foi um grande susto. O sistema tinha ganhado uma nova aparência e eu, como um bom admirador da marca, fui correndo atualizar o meu iPhone 4s.
Ah 10 anos atrás, com 16 anos era um sonhador e admirador de toda a filosofia apple, me sentia diferente e sentia que a marca me abraçava. Como nasci e cresci em um país miserável, o único produto que tive da Apple foi um iPhone 4s. Não tinha palavras para descrever o tanto que amava ter aquele aparelho. Me sentia parte de uma comunidade. Na época não era comum, e eu possuía.
10 anos se passaram e depois disso nunca mais tive outro iPhone, ou qualquer aparelho da Apple. Todos os meus sonhos foram destruídos e hoje eu apenas fico rindo ironicamente de tudo o que vivi. Só de pensar que daria tudo para ter um iPhone, o tanto que deixei minha mãe triste, o tanto que me sentia feliz. Era sentimentos confusos.
10 anos depois, e estou perdido. 10 anos depois e o que mudou? Esses 10 anos de iOS7 me fizeram pensar como tudo foi uma merda.
Lembro até hoje quando atualizei o sistema. Inacreditável como o tempo passa e as memórias ficam.
i knew it would last forever ･༓☾
always just like now ↷♡

it's my personal unevidenced belief that your average stark-brand starkphone lasts a decade+ on average and has indestructible nokia reputation and is easy to self-repair and the company's like "tony that's not sustainable financially. tony we need to release a phone every year" and he's like "i can't make it bad. i tried it but it gave me hives. i can't make bad tech it gives me hives" so it's just like that. it has a 5 day battery life it's recycled when you trade it in it doesn't need a case. it comes with iron man themed notification sounds. apple who
keyboard malfunctions
Recently the keyboard of my macbook has been giving me great difficulty. Specifically, some of the keys have stopped working. The keys in question, chronologically as best as I can remember, are the "esc", "p", ";", ":", "/", "?", "-", "_", "\" , "|", and "return".
All but "return" are refusing to work at all while "return" is still at the stage where it chooses when to work and malfunctions at its leisure. I've had to resort to copying and pasting whenever I've needed to use one of the keys in question. "esc", or course, has simply fallen into extinction in terms of its usefulness. I wonder which keys will become defunct next?
Has anyone else been afflicted with similar frustrations? If so, how did you fix it? I haven't found anything useful in my searches through the interwebs and I'm not really jumping at the chance to take my dilemma to the Apple Store as my warranty ran out.
current things
I got a job earlier this month. I'm working retail. It is interesting. One thing that is particularly interesting is how much more exhausting being on your feet for 5+ hours a day can be. I've been sleeping a lot more than I'm used to. I told my mom yesterday that I think I need more sleep working retail than I did being an art student. She told me that maybe I just have more opportunities to sleep than I did while in school. This makes sense.
At first I didn't think the long hours on my feet would be a particularly new thing for me. After all, some of my studio classes required me to stand for long periods of time. But I've come to realize that I was able to sit down much more than I realized. Also, the tasks I was completely whilst standing - such as inking a plate and printing said plate in printmaking, or carving a block of limestone or alabaster - proved to distract my mind and body from the exhaustion that standing and walking around for long periods at a time seemed to be causing. Unfortunately, folding clothes and the like has not proved to be quite as stimulating. Also, I was spoiled my last semester, completing the majority of my thesis sitting down - albeit hunched over, resulting in different problems. But the most crucial discovery I have made is that I need to find better shoes.
On an unrelated note, the keyboard problems I mentioned have disappeared. It seems the problems arose because of my computer's perception of the control key being engaged when it had not been. At the height of the problem my keyboard became utterly useless, as engaging the control key negates the ability to use the keyboard normally. However, I updated all my software - something I had been putting off as it required me to restart my computer - and everything seems to be behaving correctly. Except that the esc key still does not work, but that is very easy to work around.
So the other day I was playing...
... with the voice command thing in my macbook, I decided to name it "Shenaynay" and sometimes when I'm bored I say "Shenaynay tell me a joke" and it will tell me a classic "knock knock" joke. Other times I just say "Shenaynay tell me I'm beautiful!" and one day soon hopefully it'll be able to reply:
*giggles*
