Thinking of completely disconnecting for 2 weeks, no phone or internet for an upcoming trip in Hawaii. Won’t even bring a phone or laptop to tempt me. What are some things—without any modern connectivity—that you would prepare for? I rely so much on instant communication and modern conveniences, I expect there would be a lot of changes to a typical modern trip. For example, wouldn’t be able to use mobile boarding passes, will have to check in at the airport early, and get printed passes. Can’t order Ubers will have to order a taxi from the hotels or airport. Aside from t…

LPT Request: How to wake up without having to scroll on phone? One of my goals in 2025 is to break my phone addiction. However, it seems like a losing battle since I feel like I NEED start my day with 15 – 30 minutes of tapping around on my phone, or else I can’t wake up fully or get out of bed. That time spent on my phone gives my body and brain time to wake up and become alert — I feel better after, phys…

I have a budget of around $600 and was t…

LPT: When you are in a hotel and you want to listen to music on your phone, put your phone in the sink. Try it. Much better acoustics, and it gives your phone a much bigger sound than if you leave it on your desk. It’s like bringing your boombox on the road with you. submitted by /u/JubileeSupreme

Phone during airport security I feel like im the only one paranoid about my phone being stolen during the X-Ray. Most airports require you to put them in a tray, while you have to go get patted down in a stall next to it. How do you ensure nobody else takes it? submitted by /u/SweetRamen123

I’ve switched to a dumb phone to try and fight my phone addiction and it’s working well for me apart from the absolutely sh*te camera – can someone give me a recommendation for a REALLY cheap point and shoot camera to replace a smartphone? For context, I am based in the UK. I recently switched to a ‘dumb’ phone to try and sort out my addiction to my iPhone and it’s working really well apart from the camera, so I want to purchase a cheap digital camera that can slip in my pocket (bearing in mind I’m a woman and our pockets are bloody minuscule) that can actually take a coherent pi…

Trump Put Musk on Phone With Zelensky During Call Elon Musk was with Donald Trump at Mar-a-Lago when the president-elect spoke with Ukraine’s leader. It is not clear if they discussed any change in U.S. policy toward Ukraine.

Thinking of removing phone number from my webshops I’m coming across much larger online stores than myself that do not list a phone number. I always thought it hurts customer trust a lot by not having one. But it is taking up a lot of my time answering calls and interupting my workflow (don’t have staff). Especially with the holiday season coming up. I often find myself not answering phone calls…

Hold diffusion filter in front of phone or buy a dedicated phone filter? Newbie here. I want to use a diffusion filter on the photos I take with my phone but I don’t know if it would be better to buy one made for cameras and just hold it in front on the lens, or buy one made specifically for phones (like the sandmarc ones). Are the ones made for cameras better quality? will the ones made for the phone take better pho…

I just had my phone stolen in the Rome metro tl;dr Never keep your phone, wallet or anything of value in your pockets. I’m writing this because this is my first time getting pickpocketed and I’ve always wondered how they actually do it. Now I know, so I’m offering you the chance to learn from my mistake, since just telling someone “You should watch your stuff in the metro” doesn’t actually…
