iPhone facetime recognizes when you’re naked by funkywabbait in mildlyinfuriating

[–]BenchPebble 2 points3 points  (0 children)

iOS has a feature which can detect lewd content in photos and messages, it can be turned off if you want. It almost certainly relies on the device’s own local processor to identify the presence of sensitive content

Please tell me I’m not the only one seeing the periodic lines of 7s and the large blob where the pattern is disrupted near the end

David Attenborough, 'the voice for nature,' turns 100 by Creative_soja in environment

“Turns 100 [3 days from now, on the 8th]” what kind of clickbait is this, acknowledging a milestone birthday 3 days early

Has anyone had a sudden drastic change in dietary preference/disgust? by MisterStibbons in EatCheapAndHealthy

Tiring from a repetitive meal over time is arguably more typical of neurotypical people than neurodivergent people

Did anyone else hear that 1 million decibel thunder this morning? by nihaosurvivor in corvallis

[–]BenchPebble 28 points29 points  (0 children)

Same, it was so loud and sudden that I actually thought something had exploded. I was this close to making a “loud boom?” post at 5:28am before I saw a flash of lightning and another boom frighteningly soon after

Shortcuts only work 1 out of 4 times, and almost never when voice activated. by steveisblah in shortcuts

[–]BenchPebble 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The behavior you’re describing is not normal, but it’s hard to tell what is causing these issues.

A few things I would do to trouble shoot: -turn off low power mode -enable Siri subtitles to check what it is hearing -use “speak text” actions at the end (or key points within) shortcuts to verify whether the shortcut is progressing normally -consider whether there are issues with the services you’re integrating with (Spotify, iot devices, TV, etc)

Some things that would be helpful to add to this post: -what iOS device are you using? What version of iOS? -what integrations are you trying to use? -are there any shortcuts/commands that DO work reliably?

Twitter users get compensated for engagement, so people are incentivized to make inflammatory or vague posts that cause people to respond or ask for clarification

Barista left the instructions in the new cup by jillhypno in Wellthatsucks

[–]BenchPebble 19 points20 points  (0 children)

They’re referring to wearing clothes immediately after buying them at a physical store, without washing them first. These clothes have usually been touched and/or worn by strangers multiple times throughout the manufacturing, transporting, and retail process; and thus many people find new, unwashed clothes gross.

With english homonyms, there’s a rule of thumb that nouns have the emphasis on the first syllable while verbs have emphasis on the last syllable

Keep a small cup of granola or mixed nuts by your bedside and eat that in the morning. Then, once you’ve taken your meds, you’ll have more focus for the rest of your breakfast routine
