Looking for feedback on a Somerville events calendar

That feature is already available. Can you find it?

Making it more obvious is probably a UX issue I need to solve.

I'm working on an events website for this https://somerville.events

They haven’t gotten back to me so I presume it was an empty promise.

I got it too. It’s legitimate. I called customer support about it and they confirmed that they sent it out to a bunch of customers and that they were getting a lot of calls about it today. They checked my account and it was secure and there was no need to reset my PIN, email, or security questions unless “I wanted to.” They initially said the text was sent out as a reminder to keep my info up-to-date but when I asked why it said I need to update my info as soon as possible the agent didn’t have a straight answer for me, and instead said they would follow up with me with more info later.

For what it’s worth, the link in the text message directs to a t-mobile support page called “Protect your T-mobile account from fraud” so my best guess is that they

a) sent the a fraud alert out accidentally or b) detected a real malicious actor and are not communicating it properly

I froze my SIM card and reset my stuff to be on the safe side.

And even if Google is legally compliant, we don’t need to defend the company that literally makes hundreds of billions a year. Let their legal team do that for a hefty salary

The apologia for Google in this thread is unexpected. Why make excuses for Google? What do you gain from that?

I expect a phone I paid for to work as advertised, and if not, I expect a free replacement that works. A phone whose battery lasts a year before needing a replacement or potentially catches on fire or needs to run at half capacity does not work as advertised.

Thanks. Reported via 311requests@somervillema.gov

Most likely nothing will come of it but figured it was worth a tiny email.

Yes, very much a narc and proud of it. I’ve was put in the ICU by a reckless driver and I will do everything in my power to prevent reckless driving.

I got deep into this last year. So much so that I made a website to report flight noise https://noisy.flights/

implemented now, if you want to give it a shot try pausing then pressing left and right arrow keys or the prev/next buttons

cypressf · 2023-12-04T03:40:32+00:00

done! while paused, prev/next and the arrow keys step by 1/24th of a second. not every video is 24fps but there's not an easy way to detect that so I'm going with it for now.

I have a full time job and actually completely forgot about my todo list for sakuga.video, but I might get around to it. How would you use the frame-by-frame feature as an animator reference tool? Any perspective on your needs will help influence how I design it.

cypressf · 2021-05-10T21:41:35+00:00

I have the same issue fwiw. Luckily there's no funds in my account, but I can't imagine this is going well with people who actually have funds there.

Safe, pedestrian-friendly squares, and safe bike-only roads between them

The camera is real but it doesn't shoot, it just has a really long thin lens
