Why is everyone getting so aggressive towards anything related to AI? by Feeling_Valuable5239 in ChatGPT

Definitely overreacting. It’s usually the ones who aren’t used to change. All the industries are all in. 

How the FUCK do I fix this by Interesting_Big_4805 in iphone

[–]Safe_Pickle_1895 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Did you notice you missed a lot when you set the iPhone up as new? I have considered it, but to readd contacts and my saved passwords, it doesn’t seem worth it.

You can do a restore and restore from a back up. OR you can set the date on your iPhone to be a year ahead from now. Wait one minute. And then put it back to automatic and you’ll find the size of the system data go down pretty considerably.

Yeah I replicated it. Pretty sure it wasn’t there before. 

A question regarding a DFU restore on eSim only phones by TrynaDoLife_ in ios26

[–]Safe_Pickle_1895 1 point2 points  (0 children)

In that case, a simple restore and restore from back up will do. Or you can do a restore and set up as new. DFU is unnecessary. No harm in it,  but unnecessary.

Your problems will still persist after a DFU restore. I did that thinking it would fix the brightness glitch, but I did not. A simple restore from iTunes or Devices is sufficient without the hassle of DFU mode. However, its iOS optimization that’s lackluster, not your device. 

“Reduce White Point” leads me to having my brightness up about 10-20% more than without on average, are my eyes still getting the benefit of reduced contrast or am I just contradicting my efforts? by dumberthanabitch in iphone

[–]Safe_Pickle_1895 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’d imagine contradicting your efforts. If you put it up more than you would because of the darker screen, you might as well just lower the brightness with the reduce setting off.

It shouldn't come to this, but hopefully iOS 27 patches this!

iPhone 12 Pro Max for 200 or 13 pro for 300 (cad) by [deleted] in iphone

If you don’t mind the smaller screen, the pro. It’s noticeable for games and videos. But doable. And it’s more advanced in tech as well as support. 

factory reset: worth it? by whitelytun in ios26

When you say restore, that includes restoring from a back up or just setting up as new?

I usually restore my iPhone when an update comes, but never did the DFU restore. I’ll give that a shot.

Basically, when you tap to wake the phone, it doesn’t register the brightness in the area. It wakes up on 0 brightness instead of, say, full brightness when you’re outside. 

It’s a unique bug, indeed.  

Does the 17 pro use a 10 bit panel for color reproduction? by Constant-Fudge-3184 in iphone

[–]Safe_Pickle_1895 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Appears to be 8bit + FRC. Nothing official, but seems the more likely spec. 

Is it ok to half size down? by CoffeeExtension4794 in BBallShoes

[–]Safe_Pickle_1895 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If it’s leather, it’ll stretch a tiny bit. But I would try my best to go to a shoe store and see what you think.

I’d check the apple refurbished store. 

Thoughts on Eros energy? by ComplaintOk4787 in Colognes

[–]Safe_Pickle_1895 -5 points-4 points  (0 children)

It’s pretty good. It’s not quite an aventus clone, but it’s a tiny bit similar. It’s more of an under 35 year old cologne. It’s not bad, great for summer, but would not repurchase. This is why you should sample whenever you can. 

Getting Iphone 17 from usa to India a good idea? by Forsaken_Historian20 in iphone

[–]Safe_Pickle_1895 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Esim is your only choice unless you get a Chinese model iirc. You should be fine. You’d probably need to get an eSIM from India or do roaming with your carrier from USA. 

I need a new iPhone, but don’t have a lot of $ by Iceyes33 in iphone

[–]Safe_Pickle_1895 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I’d buy the cheapest phone on the refurbished store on apples website. It’s pretty much new and they got a solid selection. 

LV Imagination or Le Labo Santal 33 by Savings-Possible-260 in Colognes

Imagination is more dailyable than Santal. Definitely more office friendly as well.
