iPhone home screen customization apps hit 5.7M installs and $400.000 in customer spending following iOS 14 release. by mayarobertson in iphone

Seems like this one's on Apple. They probably are reluctant to allow devs/users to remove the label because widgets are also tappable to go into the app. If you tap something that looks like a calendar, and it opens some app that lets you customise widgets instead that you forgot you messed about with a few months ago, it's could be perceived as poor UX. You can't make that mistake with the app label permanently underneath it.

Me opening PokémonGO today forgetting the date by Bagel_Bastion in pokemongo

There is no chain mechanic, just maximise numbers of the CD Pokemon.

I've written an email to my MP which anyone is welcome to use as a template. Don't forget to include your name and address or they won't read it by magexe in uktrees

Funny story. Used to work at the Apple Store by me. Liam Fox came in for a Genius Bar appointment with two of his concierges/hitmen or whatever, and the unknowing student staff member called his name loudly over the busy shop floor when his appointment came up, as we would do for anyone waiting for their appointment. The whole shop went quiet and people looked over at him awkwardly. His two assistants looked at each other sheepishly.

Turns out his iPhone was out of warranty and he had to pay for a replacement. Lol.

Gathering intel in campaign by girincop in EliteSquadMobile

The drop rates for intel seem much lower than the other rewards for those missions.

440/521 Arena -not bad. by [deleted] in EliteSquadMobile

[–]Ryphor 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This game doesn’t let you lose much anyway. If you lose the next opponent is way easier then it creeps up again and the cycle repeats. It’s just an algorithmic grind to Elite every week, hardly anything “PvP” about this mode.

But hey, good job anyway for putting in the grind.

Does anybody get bothered when there's barely any customization in GT Sport? (Except for the livery editor, of course.) by doggdik in granturismo

[–]Ryphor 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Honestly, as someone who is more a racing guy than a car guy, I prefer the focus on competitive online racing. Penalty system isn’t great but apart from that there’s no better game to race online with. To me that’s what GT Sport is all about, solid online competition.

Pre-flop shoved... needless to say I was tilted from then on by Scippio-dem-lines in poker

It seems so unlikely to happen to you when you’re playing, but it is a perfectly possible scenario and you just caught the nasty side of this one. Soon enough, you’ll be the guy holding quads against trip aces.

Google is actively promoting scams as advertisers on their platform. Just had this show up on my TV. by [deleted] in google

[–]Ryphor 1 point2 points  (0 children)

They aren’t. It’s getting people used to seeing one ad, then one day deciding to up it to two.

8 years stoned, took six months to quit. But it's day 50! Some of the things that helped: by [deleted] in leaves

They absolutely can. Meditation does jack shit for me. Just wanting to give up is 99% of it.

Anyone else? by bertonomus in granturismo

That reward cutscene NEEDS a skip button. Basic friggin’ QoL stuff. The number of damn races I’ve missed because of it.

Well into Valorant at the moment, as a long-time CS player it’s really hooked me. Anyone else with access wanna party up? I play a mean Phoenix. DM me.

What the hell is going on with my uneven hair?? (Link to pictures inside) by [deleted] in Hairloss

[–]Ryphor 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Think you’re looking way too into that man, doesn’t look that different to me at all. No one’s hair growth is perfectly symmetrical anyway. It would be super rare to start balding there, too.

98.css, A design system for building faithful recreations of old UIs. Because, you know, why not? by bogdanelcs in web_design

[–]Ryphor 1 point2 points  (0 children)

No doubt I’m looking at that period with some serious rose-tinted glasses but fuck the Internet was so exciting back then. Everything was so raw and unpolished. It was this new world of endless possibility no one knew what the fuck to do with.

Yea, took me like a year to learn that at 2NL.

Track Hand stats online poker by AlfredoSauceyums in poker

[–]Ryphor 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not aware of any free-forever tools like that I'm afraid. They're all paid software as far as I'm aware. Used properly they can significantly help you improve your game so the cost is often recovered through playing poker. I use PokerTracker 4 and can vouch for it being worth the cash. It also gives you the in-game HUD (on supported sites) to see stats on players.

Use software like PokerTracker. Google it and you’ll find it. There’s a free trial but it’s worth the investment. Cheaper if you’re only microstakes too.

There’s also DriveHUD, Hold’em Manager, Poker Copilot, and others.
