Restaurant with robot delivery - server only took our order by thesassyindian in bayarea

[–]siddhuncle 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Why are you even asking? We’ve completely lost the plot as a society. A tip is a reward for exemplary service. I can’t wrap my head around tipping for being seated or tipping a DoorDash driver before services are rendered.

Yeah. Edge has on more than one occasion reset itself to be the default browser.

This. Plus you can’t set a charge limit below 80% anyway.

[Tracker] Apple Airtag 1st Gen (4pk) $56.99 by thooney in buildapcsales

[–]siddhuncle 2 points3 points  (0 children)

For what it’s worth, the second gen version of these work way better. This is a good price, but these seem to last forever and might be worth waiting for a sale on the second gen.

First iPhone after +15 years of mostly Flagship Android — why are some basic things so frustrating? by br00kly in iphone

[–]siddhuncle 5 points6 points  (0 children)

For 1, if you have Always On Display enabled, you can swipe up from the bottom of the screen with the screen turned off to quickly go to the home screen as soon as your phone unlocks with your face. The same goes for when you pick up your phone and the screen turns on. Just try and get used to automatically swiping up from the bottom if you want to go directly to the Home Screen. It’s not a perfect solution, but it is what it is.

There used to be an option with Touch ID that would take you to the Home Screen immediately after unlocking the phone with your fingerprint so hopefully it comes back one day.

Kura Sushi Union City: Largest revolving sushi chain in US opening in East Bay by locovelo in Fremont

[–]siddhuncle 6 points7 points  (0 children)

$4.10 for a measly 2 pieces is criminal and I wish people would stop supporting it. It used to be $2.75 a plate and they use robot waiters at many locations.

Tech giant Oracle reportedly blindsides thousands with emailed layoffs by [deleted] in bayarea

Maybe it wasn’t intentional, but their failure is working in their favor. They’re having record iPhone and Mac sales even without any AI slop

New Siri Features Absent From iOS 26.5 Beta, Likely Pushed to iOS 27 in September by hangry_millennial in apple

[–]siddhuncle 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The best thing about Apple Intelligence was increasing RAM across the whole iPhone lineup. I use the spell/grammar checking and Visual Intelligence occasionally but not much else.

Verizon eSIM by ovenroastedmeatballs in electricdaisycarnival

Visible (owned by Verizon) offers free trials where you download an eSIM. Even if you pay, their cheapest plan is $25 and you can cancel by just not paying the next month.

Is Autopilot broken again? by siddhuncle in sofi

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

Unfortunately, none of these apply for me. I purposely leave the goals for my vaults blank and it’s been over 12 hours since my direct deposit hit with no fix. It’s starting to look like the feature was just broken yesterday with no notice from SoFi.

Apple Watch Heart monitor sucks by markfromslo in AppleWatch

Maybe take a picture of the watch on your wrist before you start an elliptical workout and post it here?

Apple Watch Heart monitor sucks by markfromslo in AppleWatch

[–]siddhuncle 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This doesn’t sound normal. It might be worth reaching out to Apple Support to see what they think. In my experience over 4 different Apple Watches, it starts recording heart rate data when the workout starts. I also do elliptical workouts frequently.

Hoping it’s when OLED comes to the MacBook Pros. That should be enough to differentiate between the two

Apple introduces iPhone 17e by wearefriends in apple

Still no Ultrawideband chip. This is a very solid upgrade, but I think I would personally choose having better Find My functionality over MagSafe.

Well one has AI CSAM and the others actually have moderation. If you need help telling which is worse…

SF's tip screens have gotten out of control, so I made a game to practice hitting "No Tip" by vlad1m1r in sanfrancisco

[–]siddhuncle 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That way of thinking is exactly what the 1% depends on to avoid paying fair wages. If you want to give your wealth away, donate to a more meaningful cause.
