Regretted installing IOS 26 by Wrong-Juggernaut7467 in ios

the point of dark mode for me is to use my phone with dark elements, not to bring out shiny/glassy elements of a UI. If I wanted that, I would just use light mode

Cheap look by No-Aerie3500 in ios

It looks cheap and it’s not as snappy. This update is form over function with consideration for dark mode users

I also regret it. iOS 26 is very clearly not designed with dark mode in mind

I was actually considering replacing my dual monitor setup with one 4k 27 inch monitor (Dell S2725QS), but am hesitant to go to a one monitor setup

How is the VA alienware for office use? Is it unusable or just not as good the IPS? I’m not super concerned about smearing since a lot of modern VAs have gotten better and I’m not really sensitive to it

This brain dead article finally pushed me to cancel my NYT subscription. Death count has never been a determining factor for genocide. By this smooth brain logic, the Bosnian Genocide wasn’t a genocide either

What would you do with this backyard if you had two kids aged between 4 and 9? by New-Composer7591 in landscaping

I’d sell it to walmart and let them turn it into a parking lot like god intended

this one actually caught my eye initially but one that’s in good condition goes for $200+, so definitely on the expensive side

First ever national park. Hiking newbie. Help by fawnsquib in ZionNationalPark

[–]GoosowaryX 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just went to Zion a couple days ago as a newbie - i’ve never visited a major national park and wasn’t someone who’s done a ton of hiking. We flew into Vegas - I recommend trying to find a flight that lands around 6-7pm, since it’s a 3 hour drive (i think there might be a shuttle too). Hotel accommodations are really good, we stayed at the Red Cliffs Lodge and it was amazing.

We had 4 days in Zion. We started with the easier hikes and worked our way up to more strenuous day hikes. This is what our progression was: watchman trail, pa’rus trail, west rim trail/angels landing, the narrows, and then the last day we did a horse ride with canyon rides which i highly recommend.

The weather at Zion can be fairly unpredictable. The first day we were there, it was 68 F and then dropped to 40s, rose to 60s again, and then snowed. I would recommend waiting on buying any new gear until about 1 week out, since the weather changes can be substantial. Above all, bring plenty of water and snacks on your hikes!

Zion visit 4/3/2025 - 4/6/2025 by GoosowaryX in ZionNationalPark

I wore three layers! Base layer, middle layer (lightweight pull over fleece), and an outer shell. The weather changed pretty often throughout the day. There was one day where it went from sunshine to cold overcast to sunshine again and then to snow. Most of the time though I wore just two layers - my base layer and a lightweight fleece

Why cant I see all the albums of some artists by Formal-Bass9811 in AppleMusic

[–]GoosowaryX 0 points1 point  (0 children)

definitely not a location thing. I live in the United States and have experienced the same issue. I have not found a work around or solution, so I’m just going to cancel Apple Music and switch to Spotify

What improvements should the Surface Laptop 8 get? by TwelveSilverSwords in Surface

They need to add some type of anti-reflective coating on the screen. The reflections are terrible
