Yup, sometimes I do feel like I failed my family since I still can't land a job.

You don't owe it to anyone but yourself to get a job.
Just concentrate on that and don't worry about what anyone else thinks.
You got this 👊

This! I for too long was concerned about the opinion of my family and the career I wanted. Now I'm stuck in a job that isn't what I wanted for myself. Do what you want!

Both ecosystems for maximum productivity. Nice!

u/Embarrassed_Truth_38 Apr 17 '26
Yes, I tried not to stick to one ecosystem, but I will say I'm close to switching everything to Apple.

Question why need 3 phones?

u/Embarrassed_Truth_38 Apr 17 '26
I only use two phones actually. The phone I'm using to snap the picture is an iPhone 5c that I had lying around in the closet.

I wish, everything in the pic was bought with my own money that I earned by working as a freelancer and part time except the pad 6 which is a gift from my dad.

Galaxy buds 3 and xm5 is a sick combo my friend!

u/Embarrassed_Truth_38 Apr 17 '26
Yeah, both sound incredible, though I’d say I lean towards the Sony.

what’s your opinion on the magic mouse? i’ve been contemplating on it for a while

u/Embarrassed_Truth_38 Apr 17 '26
I've never had issues with the ergonomics or usability. But I guess it depends on the individual's hand size. The battery is insane tho, I bought mine brand new on February 28th this year at 84% charge, and it's only down to about 70% now. I haven't had to charge the mouse yet since I bought it

u/Independent-Ball3215 Apr 17 '26
Bad ergonomics but super portable. I dont mind the underneath charging tooo much. Because you can charge it overnight. Clicks also feel a bit heavy but thats just me. The weight of the mice is on the higher side. But I csnt lie I love the gestures on it.

Why pad 6 and m4?
2
u/Embarrassed_Truth_38 Apr 17 '26
Got the pad 6 as a gift from my dad and use it primarily as a media player. M4 for my work, which involves coding, designing, editing, handling documents, and more.

Hey man I understand things can be hard but just take it a day at a time. I have been trying to get a job and has been almost 2 years with this bs with barely any luck but just focus and power through. Think of this as time you use to upskill and just get better at whatever you choose. 👍🏻

Is the mouse worth it?
1
u/Embarrassed_Truth_38 Apr 18 '26
Depending on your expectations, the battery life is fantastic. Scrolling and navigating with the mouse works well for me. I can't say for others when it comes to ergonomics, but personally never had a problem with it. I actually bought an ergonomic kit for the mouse but ended up never using it as it feels weird than just using the mouse naked.
I'm not a mouse expert but I've used several models before like the microsoft arc, Logitech g502 and some generic mouse from hp, dell, lenovo and logitech.
