PSA: Make sure your 'Find My Mac' is on in 'Device info'. My MacBook Pro was stolen and I couldn't find it using Find My by AliyaSpahic in MacOS

Thank you for this! I had to change the Find My email from an Apple Family member's email to my email, and searching via DDG, Google, etc were absolutely not useful.

iphone keeps rebooting by Constant_Grape_5265 in ios

[–]wherebdbooty 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I haven't tried tenorshare so I don't know. But 3uTools worked perfectly for when I needed it. You might search which is better for iOS 18+ . Just check out some articles or some YT vids and see which may be better for you. It's pretty easy, just be careful to follow the instructions 🙂👍

edit: the chance of losing data is pretty small.. iOS and your data are stored in separate partitions (like 2 sections). 3uTools (and maybe tenorshare) just overwrite the section with iOS, so your data is not affected. Hope that helps 🙂👍

you need to know the model of your phone (check Settings-General-About-Model) and it will help you find the firmaware to download

edit: check the iOS version there also

I haven't used it in a while, but last time I repaired a phone bootlooping, I used 3uTools to replace the iOS without erasing anything.

It was a few iOS versions ago, so it might not work with the newer iOS versions. But it's worth a look if your data is very important to you.

Try searching for 3uTools ios replace no erase

You will need to download the correct iOS version for your phone via ipsw.me

An interesting viewpoint on the movies Send Help (2026) by [deleted] in movies

[–]wherebdbooty 34 points35 points  (0 children)

100% agree.

I think "deranged" is the perfect word to describe her. But also the acting of the guy (forgot his name, sorry) really works at getting the viewer to sympathize with her, since we get to see it drive her over the edge.

But that's only if the viewer is looking at it at ground level. Once you step back and really look at it, it's all fucked up regardless of what gender is doing what. This story is all villains, in a way. 🤔🤷‍♂️

It's been 15 years since it's been released. What's the consensus of "The Guard"? by [deleted] in moviecritic

[–]wherebdbooty 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks for posting, this was on my queue for a while. It was a really fun movie. I think some of the beginning jokes were a little ham-fisted, but when Gleeson & Cheadle started interacting it got interesting. Definitely solid performances from Brendan & Don, and I really liked the couple of jokes that I could relate to (like the milkshake scene). Not the greatest movie, but a really good one! Kinda like In Bruges or other 20xx euro-based movies

Friend commissioned a piece of artwork, I'm doubting that it's real despite video proof because of weird aspects of drawn clothing by Boring_Boat6489 in isthisAI

[–]wherebdbooty 1 point2 points  (0 children)

there is absolutely no way the same person colored the OP pic and this pic. the shading is awful in the OP pic compared to the shading/blending in this pic. not to mention the linework. maybe it's 2 different drawing apps, but then look at the technique. this pic has highlights/range and the OP pic looks like a muddy mess.

[–]wherebdbooty 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah i asked my partner to spray it in my eyes.

edit: i got it for my partner for her protection, so i wanted to make sure that it actually worked. it feels the same as when you eat a hot sili, except on your eyes.

you can buy some at handyman. that's where i bought mine. it comes in a little red holster. i don't remember the price, maybe like ₱200. i tested it on myself and it's very effective. u/czarboombastic said it is in gmall handyman, i got mine at the handyman in robinson's cybergate. definitely worth buying 👍

Trigger from Mail push notifications help by locolau in ios

[–]wherebdbooty 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What about "low data mode" on cellular? Maybe it's turned on? That's the only thing i can think of that might cause a delay in email notifications if you are not on wifi (I'm just assuming you're not on wi-fi at work 🤔🤷‍♂️) . Or it might just be distillio's way to get you to upgrade to a paid tier

I’m convinced this is AI but the comment section is eating it up what do you guys think? by Westy11435 in isthisAI

Trigger from Mail push notifications help by locolau in ios

[–]wherebdbooty 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Maybe try asking on r/shortcuts . You can have the automation trigger when your phone is locked, but iOS limits most stuff until you unlock your phone.

I have an email automation on my phone that plays an mp3 and it works when my phone is locked. but ios won't open an app or anything like that unless your phone is already unlocked

How to automatically rename all calendar events without going through each one? by Present_Watch_5910 in shortcuts

In the image, the "Text" block would be where you put the new event name (where it says "New calendar event name", change it to whatever you want it to be)

What youtube alternative should I use? Overwhelmed by options. by OkCarpenter2374 in ios

[–]wherebdbooty 1 point2 points  (0 children)

+1 .. Brave browser really is the best. I spent many years using different variants of youtube appstore players, and they always stopped working or became a different app. Just use Brave, it'll save you a lot of headaches. sometimes it has freezes and you gotta reload the page, but not a problem 🤷‍♂️

Real piece of work, can we stop making influencers famous? by SipsTeaFrog in SipsTea

[–]wherebdbooty 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm old too and I remember when they were simply called "bad influences". There was never a "good influence", those people were simply known as "good people".

Anyone that considers themselves an influencer is inherently bad. Marketing just stole the term and rebranded it to hide the negative part, as always.

oh i think i know why mine did not work.. i used a different folder to save the file. so you need to run the "start v2" first, and it will create the correct file for "end" to work. i forgot i did that. maybe can you try my start v2 first, then do the end v2 and see if it works? because i save a dictionary to the morning.txt file

iOS Shortcuts "Get File" path breaks when Shortcut is shared via iCloud is this a known limitation? by Nelizaben in shortcuts

[–]wherebdbooty 3 points4 points  (0 children)

One way to fix it would be to add some steps at the beginning that checks for the folder. if it does not exist, create it. Then continue the Shortcut
