Chapter 215
Main Post:
Here’s chapter 215. Please make sure to keep all discussions of it on this post, and make sure any posts about it have a spoiler tag :)))
Also, please do not make a separate post uploading chapter 215, I will have to remove it as spam if you do, I dont want to see it posted 3 times (as I don’t want the server to have any copy right issues). If there are any issues with the link, just let me know! See you next month:)))
IMPORTANT I’m trying a different image hosting site again. If this account gets banned though then I have to go back to Google Drive. No one likes Google Drive, I get it, but if I keep getting banned, then there’s nothing I can do.
HOW TO HELP ME NOT GET BANNED
- DO NOT SHARE THE IMGBB LINK DIRECTLY FROM THE SITE WITH EVERYONE UNDER THE SUN. (You are welcome to share the chapter, but share the Reddit post, not the IMGbb chapter link. And if they aren’t apart of the subreddit, tell them to join).
And yes that black screen is meant to be there, scroll past it. Also scroll all the way down, that’s where the chapter starts (you’ll see the cover page)
Thank you:c
Top Comment: Lol Sebastian. Oh my god, I'm really happy our two MCs are back. Their chemistry is so fun.
Nokia 215 4g (2024) review
Main Post:
Introduction
Hey everyone! After using my Nokia 215 4G (2024 edition), I feel ready to share a review of this device for anyone considering a purchase.
Note: I live in Europe, and there may be some small differences in app availability depending on the region.
TL;DR
Calling and (threaded) texting work great if you enjoy T9. Music playback is fine if you're okay with listening to albums or manually creating playlists by organizing songs into folders. However, note that the aux output is quite loud, even at the lowest setting. The browser is subpar, and there are no smart apps available.
Background
I was looking for a dumbphone to, almost*, replace my smartphone due to the excessive time I spent on it. My main problem app was Instagram, which I eventually deleted. I then replaced it with YouTube, and after shutting that off (which can't be done through the normal method), I turned to Reddit. After deleting Reddit, I found myself browsing the web. Yes, I was thoroughly addicted to scrolling.
So, I went in search of a decent dumbphone. It needed to support 4G since 2G is already shut down and 3G will be phased out within two years where I live. Nokia seemed to be the only widely available manufacturer in my area. Other brands like Nothing and Punkt were too expensive for my taste. The Nokia 2xx series caught my eye because the devices look sleek and are reasonably priced. The 215 lacks a camera and is cheaper than the 225 and 235, which do have cameras. Since those cameras are only 2MP, I figured I might as well save some money and go without a camera. The 215 does come with a flashlight option. I also learned that these devices run on S30+, which, according to reviews, is not great but still better than KaiOS.
*I need a smart device that allows me to enter my gym and still log into WhatsApp Web. If I ever find a way to manage this, I will consider giving up my smartphone entirely.
Now onto the device
What's in the box?
The phone, a charger, and a user manual.
Form Factor
The phone measures 127.2 x 54.2 x 11.6 mm (5.01 x 2.13 x 0.46 in).
To be honest, I expected the device to be a bit smaller. It is slightly larger than many dumbphones from back in the day, but it’s definitely not too big. After using it for a while, I actually like the size a lot. The 2.8-inch screen allows you to see a good amount of text at once.
Hardware and Connectivity
The phone feels well-built, and the keys are satisfying to press. They are also backlit, which I appreciate. The screen is adequate for its purpose. The speaker is surprisingly good, and the vibration motor is quite powerful. The battery is removable. It features two nano SIM card slots and a single microSD slot that supports up to 32GB.
Bluetooth works very well, automatically connecting to my Samsung Galaxy Buds 2 and Sony WH-1000XM3. Note: the Bluetooth device has its own volume control, so there is no absolute volume setting. This is a good feature bacause: using wired headphones with this phone will likely be too loud for you, even at the lowest volume setting.
The 215 supports 2G, 3G, and 4G on various bands. It charges via usb-c.
Calling
Calling quality is excellent. You can hear the person on the other end clearly, and they can hear you well too.
Texting
Texting is done via T9. As an older Gen Z (born in 2000), I used T9 phones before switching to smartphones, so I'm fairly quick at typing on T9. However, I'm still slower than I would be on a touchscreen or QWERTY keyboard. The 215 does support threaded messaging.
Settings
The phone has a lot of settings, such as the ability to disable notification sounds for texts while keeping sounds for calls. However, the way to access and select these options is not intuitive. I only figured it out after reading the manual, which is surprising considering I'm quite tech-savvy.
Browser
The 215 comes with Opera Mini, a simplified version of Opera. It will work for basic tasks, like looking up a phone number, but don’t expect modern websites to run smoothly on it. Features like WhatsApp Web and Facebook are unavailable.
Music
To play music, you need a microSD card. The phone is particular about file formats; I found that .m4a with AAC encoding worked, while MP3 files did not. The method of listening to music is fine for my usage, but there is no dedicated music app. Instead, you navigate to Files, then Music, and select your desired songs from there. Listening to albums works well, but creating playlists is cumbersome—you have to access a random song, go back, select Playlists, and then choose your playlist.
FM Radio
The FM radio works well, especially with wired headphones. Unfortunately, it doesn’t remember your favorite stations after a power cycle, although it sometimes retains the names you assigned to the stations.
Battery Life
Using just calling and texting gives me about five days of battery life. If I play a lot of music, it drops to about two to three days. Of course, your usage will greatly impact how long the battery lasts on a charge.
Games
There are some pre-installed games that cannot be deleted. All of them are pretty basic, akin to what you’d find on bootleg consoles in cheap shops. Some games require payment after a few plays. The games include Snake, Racing Attack*, Blackjack, Football Cup*, Arrow Master, Doodle Jump*, Crossy Road*, Air Strike, and Ninja Up.
*payment required after three trials.
Verdict
I highly recommend this phone to anyone looking for a simple device to either replace or complement their smartphone. It functions well as a basic phone and offers just what I was seeking. In fact, my girlfriend just received hers.
P.S. If you have any specific questions about how to accomplish tasks without a smartphone or inquiries about the phone itself, please feel free to leave a comment.

Shure SE215s are great.
Main Post:
Owned them for a couple of months now. Bass is present, mids are punchy, fantastic isolation.
I see people hate on these, but I've really been enjoying them so far.
For $90 I don't think they're a bad buy. I intended to use them as literal monitors while I play drums, and they're fantastic for that use case. The isolation is just shy of foam earplugs IMO. I've been using them for casual listening, and gaming as well.
If these are "bad" then I can't wait to get my hands on something "good".

About Chapter 215(As a web novel reader)
Main Post:
Just read ch 215(Mahnwa), I don't get it why are they Changing story now , they skipped almost whole training, that scene where Arthur saw the scenes of alacryan while absorbing uto horns mana , most important Sylvie human form awakening, And the most beautiful scene kiss between Art and Tess. (Why is kathyln here in the first place). So does that mean they are going to skip everything and show us Reynold's death.
PLEASE DON'T SKIP ART AND TESS SCENE, That was one of the most beautiful scene in web novel 😮💨
Top Comment: They aren't skipping it bro, it's still on vol 6 and sylvie human form was on chapter 193-194 , comic is still on chap 187-188 and kiss scene and their promise was on chap 210-211. they are just adding some manhwa exclusive scenes, so it feels like they are missing something but it's ok, there is still time and I don't think they will skip those important scenes. There's no way they will do that
What’s your area code
Main Post:
Curious how many people have 215 or 267 or that new 445 area code or maybe some area from the burbs or even an area code from Jersey
Top Comment: 267 in my mind is only cells, although I know that’s not true
Got a 215 on NBME 9 — Should I Be Worried?
Main Post:
Just took NBME 9 and scored a 215. Feeling a bit discouraged because I was hoping to be higher by now. I’ve been through most of UWorld (timed, mixed), doing Anki daily, and felt okay going into this. I know it’s above passing, but I’m aiming for a stronger score.
For context: • Planning to take Step 2 June 10
Anyone else score around this range and improve? How predictive did you find NBME 9? Any specific tips for boosting 10–15 points in the next few weeks?
Appreciate any input — feeling kind of stuck right now.
Top Comment: NBME 9 is ass. It has some outdated info. Scored ~30 pts less than my 1st and 3rd exams compared to it.
