  • It finally lets you select the display language! Hurray! Scrolling is still choppy AF though. It's basically the same as the mobile app, which isn't saying much.

  • I haven't had this since I was a kid, but I used to take two pieces of toast, put Nutella on one slice, and margarine and Vegemite on the other… and then sandwich them together and chow down. Sweet and savory and umami all at the same time. Don't know if I would do that these days, though.

  • Internal sensor for tire pressure monitoring system? Was looking at some last night lol

  • They mean the weekly sales start on Wednesday and run until the following Tuesday. The next day (Wednesday) a different set of products will go on sale for a week.

  • That would be great to be honest. I have many shopping lists in reminders named as the stores which I frequent, with one catch all called “shopping” they are in a group called “shopping” because of course they are. Until recently adding reminders worked like “Siri add xyz to my shopping list”. But now Siri pops up saying “do you mean shopping, or shopping?” And clicking either option results in an error that the app needs to be opened. How fucking stupid can it be? One isn’t even a list! Works fine from my Apple Watch though. Changed the category to “to buy” because fuck me, right?

  • I just upvoted you by purpose. There. Sounds weird, right?

  • As someone who also grew up in the commonwealth, I can’t remember ever hearing anyone say “on accident”. And it seems that “on accident” is grammatically wrong (not that we all have to speak with perfect grammar, but just pointing it out). I’m sure I’ll get downvoted for this but whatever. “On accident” also grated at me lol.

  • I lack the space for a drawer like this, instead this exists as a plastic tub in the kitchen cabinet under the sink.

  • I use this on iOS and iPadOS. It isn’t perfect and needs tinkering and tweaking. But it does block ads systemwide in most apps (banner ads, not those pesky in game ads usually). And you can customise it by seeing what ad servers were called, and add them to the block list.

  • Dental is covered here in Japan. Just pay 30%. Only cost about ¥20,000 to have a root canal and crown done (over a series of appointments). A wisdom tooth extraction at a major hospital cost about ¥7,000.

    The one downside is that insurance only covers 30 mins of time with the dentist per appointment, so dental assistants do most of the prep etc, as the dentist hovers between several patients.

    As a result, the work is spread over several appointments, whereas in my home country it would be done in just one or two. But that also spreads the cost over more time, so win win as far as I’m concerned.

    I wonder what dental is like in other countries with socialised healthcare? I’d love to get some more details from you if you have experience.

  • Same issues here. In addition, I followed a link to a new community but I could not subscribe because the interface thought I was still in the home feed. Thanks always for the awesome effort and time you put into this.

    Edit: could subscribe from inside a post in the community I was interested in.

  • I still use a 16 gb one for my DSLR. When I bought it about 7 years ago, I opted to get an older entry level canon which was basically better specced than the current (at the time) entry level model and far cheaper. The new model did have wifi though so I got one of these. Works pretty well. And other apps support them not only their included one (PhotoSync on iOS comes to mind). They are slow AF but get the job done.

  • Cheers. Thanks for looking into it. I don’t use the guest mode. Thanks for figuring it out. I couldn’t see any pattern to it!

  • Thanks for pointing that out. I just blocked them too. Phew!

  • Have you got compatibility turned on in the photos app?

  • On cooking shows I’ve seen cooks use a frying pan as a lid in a pinch. If you have one of a decent size that might work as a lid for making soup.
