I have a pixel 4a and "cut in half" is putting it nicely. Mine went from lasting 12+ hours to 2-3 tops. I flashed an older version and it's back to normal now.

I thought I'd check which 2^N gets you to a trillion, it's N=40. So you can have 40 parameters per planet and add one more, then suddenly you've created an extra trillion planets.

We tend to use stones and pounds for measuring personal weight in the UK, although that's gradually moving to kg. Most other things are weighed in kg, products are all in kg - e.g. 1kg flour, 500g pasta.

Cool photo!

Best of luck with the new med, I hope things keep getting better for you.

I spent way too long trying to work out if it was a scale model with the man there to demonstrate how it was used, or if the bust was a weird decorative part of the cannon.

Somehow bionic nipples weren't on my futurism bingo card.

Great pic! The light reflecting from the water is perfect. Summer Leys is such a great place for wading birds.

That's awesome! I'm so happy to see more of these beaver reintroductions going ahead.

Perhaps you could try friend-finding apps such as Bumble BFF? You're likely to find others there in a similar position to yourself. It also focuses on 1 on 1 which should be a little easier to manage with social anxiety.

Clubs are a good call. Look into societies at your university, find something that you're interested in or think you could be interested in. Societies are social in a way that seminars and other course activities are not. Don't worry if you don't "click" with anyone immediately, keep attending and do your best to engage in conversations.

I also recommend seeking out a university counsellor. Most universities will have them and their advice can be valuable.
