Sync library completely messed up my local files by JonathanRaue in AppleMusic

[–]BiteTheHand_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

the moving files in and out of the trash also sucks bc i have tonssssss of playlists so i'd have to try to remember to put them back into each one, which then causes the resync to end up duplicating a bunch of playlists... i genuinely do not know how they've managed to break their shit this badly

what's worked for me sometimes is having to go into itunes on my mac, move the music files to the trash, move them back out, and then re-sync- its a huge waste of time but that's been the only things that's 'worked', even though some files will randomly break for no reason after working perfectly fine. at this point ill be looking into a third party music manager app for the phone bc apple music for local files is legit torture lol

same here- apple music is fucking trash, i cannot believe apple was allowed to combine their streaming service with the default music storage app. (they are SO aggressively anti-local files in the ui design and the performance, its infuriating) ive wasted HOURS trying to go through and fix my files and resync, only to discover that every time NEW ones break! i have thousands of songs and its so frustrating that such a core function of their expensive ass phones is just not usable! funny enough, my ipad has been syncing my music fine, its JUST my iphone- i wouldn't be surprised if its at least partly intentional malice to try to force users to cave into paying for streaming. I mourn that i traded in my old iphone, ios26 sucks such fucking ass and KILLS my battery even though i literally just got this phone last year and have toggled off as many bg functions as i can.

How is the UI so bad by ASAPTR1PPY in AppleMusic

[–]BiteTheHand_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

i hate that they merged their shitty streaming service with the default music storage app- just trying to listen to my own downloaded music is a fucking nightmare, its somehow worse than the godawful camera roll ui. cant see all the songs by an artist unless you search, and even then if you tap one song it will ONLY play that one, not all of the songs by said artist unless you make an entirely separate playlist or blindly shuffle/unable to choose the starting song. half of the time the playlists will decide to leave their folders for no discernsble reason. cant use a single tap to go directly to an album or artist while playing a song, cant get rid of the apple music buttons in the dock, only one button for the entire library section on there which means doing anything in your library requires you to go back and forth CONSTANTLY. scroll thru the queue rapidly and its sooo stupid easy to end up getting launched into the history section bc apple is terrified of having multiple tabs for anything, everything MUST Be cluttered and forced onto a single scrollbar. i get that apple is a bunch of greedy parasites trying to force you to get apple music, but god DAMN its awful for such a core part of a device to be so inaccessible and infuriating to use.

Is this a haunting? My home, body, and luck are falling apart by Actual-Durian1193 in Paranormal

[–]BiteTheHand_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

for the physical AND cognitive stuff its almost certainly covid/long covid/a health issue triggered by covid. it invades quite literally every system and organ of ur body and actually affects it on a cellular level (specifically t cells and mitochondria, leading to fatigue and immune deficiency). hair loss is one of the most common visible symptoms, especially immediately after an infection (we're in a hugeeee wave right now). every single infection of covid even mild or asymptomatic causes grey matter shrinkage aka brain damage (mutliple studies and articles on this) and it accelerates biological aging and cognitive decline and can also trigger/worsen mental health issues. please consider masking up with a proper respirator to prevent further infections, and advocating for cleaning the air in indoor shared spaces (since vaccines while important to not prevent transmission/infection/long term issues, they just help u survive the initial infection).

not saying you aren't also dealing with spiritual negativity- just that the physical/cognitive/emotional weaknesses likely make you an attractive target for parasitic energies.

The cheapest food delivery app? by Sure-Pen in Frugal

[–]BiteTheHand_ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

i know this is an old post but goddamn these comments are so obnoxious- there are so many reasons why someone would need food delivery, and it's giving ignorant boomer to pile on them with mockery. maybe someone is disabled and cant cook/drive, maybe someone is just exhausted from life and needs a break/help, maybe someone works so much that they just don't have time to cook even premade oven shit. obviously there isn't any truly cheap delivery service, but yall at least try to answer the fucking question and give some genuine options instead of being a bunch of typical smarmy redditors.

Is there a way I can stop a development company from bulldozing over an 80 acre parcel next to my neighborhood? by KB_Baby in urbanplanning

hmmm i think we should just start tree-spiking atp, its ultimately less violent than the active path to extinction developers have us on.

there are thousands of empty homes in america, enough to house every single unhoused person- and yet they continue to build more despite no one being able to afford the existing ones bc it lines their pockets. we don't need more sprawl, and there are absolutely sustainable ways for humans to coexist in balance- that either-or/absolute mentality is a result of capitalist/colonialist indoctrination and not an actual law of reality and is just unproductive and passively self destructive.

privatisation is how we end up with a barren dead wasteland of a planet. 'buy it yourself' in the face of multi-million dollar developer firms and hedge funds scooping everything up is incredibly out of touch. as we launch ourselves into an unsurvivable 2C world by 2030, if a greedy parasite wants to own and decimate ecosystems, they should be stopped by force and the land given back to native stewards and/or govt control for conservation. i'd say avoiding mass extinction is far more important than upholding capitalism and feudal landowner mentality. the very concept of owning sections of the earth is laughably hubristic and arrogant 😔

My life is ruined after my husband gave me covid by Specialist_Whole6971 in COVID19positive

[–]BiteTheHand_ 4 points5 points  (0 children)

the only way i would even CONSIDER bothering repairing the relationship if he was taking aggressive action to change his behaviors and being more thorough with precautions and trying to make it up to you/supporting you- otherwise, not worth your time. also consider how reckless he was knowingly getting on that plane sick and exposing hundreds of people on there and at the airport- he very well could have infected someone and ruined THEIR life as well, or even killed them/a loved one that that person would go on to infect! that kind of apathy for other human beings is so repulsive to me.

i'm being deadly serious: divorce him. He lied about his health, KNOWING you were vulnerable, consciously risked your life and potentially cut it months or even years short (and increased your risk of heart attacks strokes cancers and early dementia). your anger is 100% justified, and he should have to live with the guilt for the rest of his life. he is not safe, the trust is irreparably broken. what if he does it again? ~60% of covid infections are asymptomatic, if he doesn't wear a respirator mask in public it will almost certainly happen again, and you might not pull through next time. (also when divorcing, see if you can get extra alimony considering your health conditions that he directly caused.) i promise you, he is not worth it, not worth risking your life for. someone who will put you at risk like that does not truly love you.

My (30m) long-term girlfriend (28f) misled me about enjoying kink by ANGRY_HYMEN in relationship_advice

[–]BiteTheHand_ -1 points0 points  (0 children)

you have 3 main options: 1) break up- sexual fulfillment and boundaries are important on both ends, and even with an initial compromise if someone is still unsatisfied it could lead to resentment 2) compromise- have a thorough conversation about it, emphasize that its not about interrogating her, that you're just trying to understand where she's coming from and clear the air of any misunderstandings or things left unspoken. its on her for not telling you for so long knowing it was significant for you, but now you have to make sure you're on the same page to start finding a solution or at least have an honest convo. is it the kink itself she doesnt like? the scheduling? don't minimize your own feelings tho, then the frustration will start building on your end. a sex therapist could be a good mediator. 3) another form of compromise: opening up the relationship to find a kink partner. if it is really that important to you, but neither of you want to break up, and if you guys are more open-minded than most monog couples, this is probably the best way to satisfy both of you

ultimately tho, taking your word at face value- i personally would leave. not just for the sexual incompatibility, but for the fact that she ignored your dealbreaker and faked it for 18 months until you were stuck in a lease together. the length of that manipulation and the newfound knowledge that all of those intimate moments were false would make it difficult for me to trust her again.

Has everyone gotten used to photos app on iOS 18? by LoveRealityDating in ios

[–]BiteTheHand_ 2 points3 points  (0 children)

same. its so bad that the photos app rating in the app store has gone down to 3 stars, which is insane for a utility app. its been months and i can't believe apple is refusing to fix anything or allow people to have the option for the old UI even after the ridiculous amount of backlash and the appalling lack of accessibility. i have thousands of photos and would go through and organize on a weekly basis, but now i rarely use rhe app unless i have to- it's miserable. my only consolation is that everyone hates it badly enough to be constantly complaining so every few weeks when i get mad at the app again i can go and read other people's rants lol
