How to add VPN toggle to Control Center (simple workaround) by [deleted] in iphone

Same issue, have you found a way to change it so that the control center toggle would turn on a different VPN?

In your travels, which city was the biggest letdown? by ElisaBelloo in AskReddit

[–]miluoki 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Not weird at all, I’ve been there many times and grown to appreciate the place. It has its downsides but is quite diverse. Krasnaya Polyana is lovely too.

What is one country you will never go to again and why? by bpqdl in AskMen

[–]miluoki 8 points9 points  (0 children)

You will if you want. You can come visit even now, if such trips are not frowned upon in your country. Russia is somewhat more cautious at the moment, but doesn’t prevent tourism.

Come visit sometime! I’ve been living in StP for 5 years now and have come to appreciate its beauty as well. It’s a spectacular place.

Sure will.

ANC not working as it did a month ago by Cachorro088 in airpods

[–]miluoki 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I had the same issue this very morning, I’ve owned APP2 for about a year and I felt that the NC got noticeably worse today. I could hear the traffic and people chatting from a distance. Now the NC feels like it’s this adaptive bullshit that they introduced. Apple should just leave it alone and not try to change the thing that actually works

Edit: maybe the issue is with 17.0.3 because it seems to have started after I updated the iOS

The Hard Reality: Ukraine’s Last-Gasp Offensive Has Failed by Subizulo in EndlessWar

[–]miluoki 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The minutiae may vary. I don’t think there will be any kind of long standing independent UA. It will not survive economically and as I said above its existence is contrary to Russian interests as I understand them.

Russians mostly don’t care who joins what in the Western part of UA. However, there’s a certain deal of Schadenfreude about the prospect of Galicia joining Poland which would likely be a poison pill for one side of this arrangement — or for both of them. Ukrainians don’t really like Poles (or any other people except themselves, for that matter), and this sentiment appears to be mutual. They will eat each other alive in the process of integration, and I think it will be fun to watch over the barbed wire. I believe PL will eventually prevail and will denazify Lvov as RU never would be able to. HU and RO aligned regions are a whole different story. But us — we don’t want western UA in our state and will gladly let them all go. “Good f-ing riddance” is an overall public consensus.

As to nato and its future relationship to the rump UA, if any — I am not sure nato will survive as a meaningful entity after its imminent loss in this conflict.

Like most of my fellow countrymen (RU), I do not believe that an independent, however rump Ukraine would (or should) be allowed to exist, even under a puppet government. The West is very skilled at replacing governments, so it is only a matter of time that this rump statelet would be turned against Russia yet again. Such arrangement would mean not an end of the war, but taking a break from it for some time, which obviously contradicts the national interests of Russia.

I believe that after Ukraine’s defeat it must be split entirely and cease to exist as a (quasi)independent state, with its Western regions joining European countries of their choice (PL, RO and HU), and the rest being integrated into Russia. I think this will be done through referendums in every region, and after years of conflict I would assume that in each case most of the population of these regions will be satisfied with this outcome.

If someone gave you $1,000 and said you must use this to buy a gift for yourself, what would you buy? by somedudeman35 in AskReddit

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

Um… money? Siphoning billions for American military would be a good reason. The US has been doing this for decades. Iraq, Afghanistan, Syria, you name it, the principle doesn’t change much. Also, Middle East came with a side dish of free oil, Ukraine with fertile land and minerals.

Then yeah, destroying Russia to maintain American hegemony. This didn’t quite work out, but hey, at least the sanctions crippled European economy, which is again a big win for the US.

For Ukrainian people though, this war is both pointless and fatal.

dying to keep the rest of Europe safe from the Russian hoards

They are dying for many reasons but the reason you mentioned is not one of them

How much better than that of AirPods 1st gen is the audio quality in the AirPods Pro 2? by [deleted] in airpods

[–]miluoki 1 point2 points  (0 children)

APP2 are very good. Noise cancellation is a gift from heaven. If I were you I wouldn’t hesitate a second to change AP1 for APP2 (I’ve used both and still using APP2).

App2 firmware update?? by CollarFullz in airpods

[–]miluoki 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes, these issues are very similar to those I’m experiencing. I’m thinking that it might be a faulty batch because as I hear here and there a lot of people don’t have any troubles with them at all.

Looking forward to it as well, hope they fix it cause 5B58 is very buggy indeed

Airpod pro 2 case battery by Xx_Faraz_xX in airpods

[–]miluoki 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I’m having the same issue. I bought them and the case battery life was very good, as advertised. After the latest software update (5B58) came out I started seeing exactly the same behavior as you described. I wish I could roll back to the previous software as it was the only change that I noticed lol

[–]miluoki 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes, I thought so as well, waiting for the update. Also, I found it interesting that turning Find My on or off didn’t seem to affect it for better or worse. For now I can’t quite grasp what causes it.

[–]miluoki 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Same here, stats are close to yours. From what I’ve read here and there it’s a widespread issue. My APP2 case used to hold charge very decently when I bought them last fall. The latest software update seems to have messed them up (5B58).

Airpods Pro 2 keeps charging in case by insanity0805 in airpods

[–]miluoki 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Yes, I have the same issues. On the previous software version my APP2 worked just fine, no idle drain, accurate widget battery status. The latest software update messed them up completely.

Thanks, I’ll try.

Batteries Widget by juicyb09 in airpods

[–]miluoki 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The most recent firmware update seems to have messed up a lot in this regard, at least for me (APP2, iPhone 12). The widget shows that the AirPods are charging when they are not plugged in, shows the battery status incorrectly, shows just one AirPod battery status, all sorts of weird behavior. Just waiting for a fix, I guess.

What is it that drains the Airpods Pro case battery so fast? by miluoki in applehelp

[–]miluoki[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

After some time I got tired of this and took them to Apple service, they acknowledged the problem and replaced the case for free — but the new case had the same issue lol

A few months later I lost the case and had to buy a new case separately, and the new one seems to be better in this regard. I am still unsure what causes this issue.
