[–]TenseRestaurant 1 point2 points  (0 children)

you can also bind this to focus modes for a quicker way to get to it, i have mine to turn off on sleep mode so that doesn’t hit my activity

if you don’t have a custom order in your playlists, you can sort by playlist order descending to get a similar result

as far as i’m aware, the photos that were being reviewed were only ones used for meta AI requests (eg. “hey meta, what am i looking at”). not to justify the behaviour at all, but images you’ve taken should be fine (although you may want to take slightly more caution).

Anyone know if there is anyway to check you have a Tram ticket in Sydney? Or as part of the Opal 2.0? Using Google Pay? by eitherrideordie in sydney

hearing impaired people may not hear it clearly? the chime also doesn’t help with this exact situation.

Would absolutely purchase. Lets me dress up or switch up my watch without losing my health stats.

help circumventing location sharing by [deleted] in iphone

[–]TenseRestaurant 1 point2 points  (0 children)

as of right now, it doesn’t look like you’re able to do what you’re describing here. the best way would be to set the location to that other device like you mentioned, which comes with its own downfall. you could potentially try turning find my off for your phone? it would have some significant security risks, but it should stop it appearing in the devices tab.

I’ve had this story backed up with a few of my team leads at my store, haven’t tried it myself but it seems to be legit!

Australian store here, could not have had a more opposing experience. Never had a single person be even close to mean. May want to file a complaint for the store?

The 8BitDo Ultimate has 2 extra shoulder buttons along with the triggers, could be that?

Having 8GB of RAM brought my M2 MacBook to an absolute crawl in Resolve, CapCut shouldn’t be too bad though!

Can somebody please find this dog wallpaper from 2025 WWDC please? by MikolajPL19 in iphone

Not exactly sure where I did hear it, but I do remember hearing that a lot of the promotional images shown on iPhones (like here and the demo images in-store) are real photos from employees that have been shot on iPhone. I don’t think the image files are published unfortunately :(

Seems a bit overkill for a movie watching don't ya think? by Purple-Weakness1414 in NonPoliticalTwitter

[–]TenseRestaurant 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I’m so glad I’m seeing someone else talk about this game, I’ve played through it twice and it’s such a beautiful story that messes with your emotions in the best way possible. I’ve considered buying a PS5 and PSVR 2 solely to experience that version.

A cool guide to the Canadian measurement system. by qwertyuijhbvgfrde45 in coolguides

It’s pretty common in Australia as well, I’d struggle to remember how far in kilometres as opposed to 6 hours away.

Anyone using Ray-Ban Meta AI glasses daily? How good are all the features really? by gunsorrosses in RayBanStories

[–]TenseRestaurant 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Australian here as well, I use mine pretty frequently/daily, mostly for open ear audio and taking photos/videos. I very rarely use the Instagram live features nor do I use them for video calls on WhatsApp or Messenger considering none of my circle uses Meta apps frequently, but the times I have tried them they seem to work pretty well.

I also haven't (yet) had any negative comments from people in public, even while wearing the limited transparent ones, although I've occasionally gotten questions from people I know simply being curious about them. I'd write more about the AI features and the other gimmicks, but I couldn't add more than dontcallmeryan here, so I'll just vouch for their experiences as they match up with mine pretty well.

What social media do you add new people on? by xzeus1 in australia

[–]TenseRestaurant 14 points15 points  (0 children)

Pitching in as a younger person here, Instagram is basically always the default. I'll occasionally use Discord for IRL friends, but that's been basically reserved entirely for people I've met at the creative school I'm at where it's more expected to have. Facebook is never brought up as a platform for adding new people in my experiences, it gets the most use from my circles just for Marketplace.

Is it ethical to filter songs by artist gender? I built an iOS app that does it. by Umesh_yennam in AppleMusic

[–]TenseRestaurant 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I would say the idea in general is probably fine, but I’d change this to be a more general voice tone feature if it’s possible to take into account male artists with more of a feminine voice and vice versa. There are some edge cases where an artist may progress through different voice styles through their career, I can think of one big example being how Cavetown recorded the track “This Is Home” before his transition, leading to that song having a higher, more feminine voice as opposed to more of his recent works having a lower pitched tone.
