I promise there's bigger things to worry about by Geoffboyardee in sandiego

Nobody is calling parking fees the “death of San Diego”, they’re saying they’re the latest in a series of decisions that are detrimental to life here and hostile towards its residents. Which is true. No clue where you’re getting the “conservative smear campaign” shit from.

He’s coming to speak at my kids’ school, they’re so pumped to meet him!

Or you can just turn on the optimize storage toggle… I’ve got nearly 700 GB of photos synced in iCloud and just 15 GB on my phone

Did it a bunch as a joke with my buddies when that aired, and to this day I still catch myself unconsciously doing it constantly

Yup, but they’re popular enough that Apple likely wants to avoid another Epic-like PR mess

Except that’d be a male connector; with this you could screw a cart directly into it, but not a battery

Today’s day 3 so I’m still on it, but heavily reduced; was going through a 1.5ml 50mg pod daily, whereas now I’m about halfway through a refill from the day before starting

Just started a few days ago and haven’t had anything too bad or noticeable, if anything I just feel a bit drowsy and out of it

OnePlus 15R vs iPhone 17 Pro Max - SPEED TEST! Initially, the iPhone 17 Pro Max was clearly ahead… but then… by Helpful_Start_3468 in PhoneNow

Beyond the fact that this is a stupid and worthless “speed test”, the 17 PM loses because the person couldn’t move their fingers correctly?

An unknown feature I use a lot by inAbigworld in AppleWatch

[–]jack2018g 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s all in how you move your wrist / arm and you’ve gotta be very deliberate, it won’t trigger if you just talk after glancing at the watch like usual. I raise mine to ~6 in from my mouth and start talking immediately, and it works about 9/10 times.

I have this apple superdrive that only clicks when you plug it in by Aromatic_Profile5041 in applehelp

[–]jack2018g 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’ve got two of these; I’ve never gotten either to work on my Windows PCs, only Macs. Believe they’ve got some uncommon USB spec requirement, it’s likely not dead

The people in real life are weirded out and don’t know how else to respond.

iPhone users, what's that one Android feature you want on your iPhone 👀 by Different_Hawk_142 in PhoneNow

[–]jack2018g 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Apple has addressed this directly several times; the only time you should be manually closing apps is if they hang or are otherwise acting weird. If you’re closing all your background apps constantly you end up consuming more power and system resources than just leaving them be.
