@mweinbach Next week: “Announcing a maximum storage capacity on your memories! Upgrade to Snapchat+ to unlock unlimited storage!”

Thanks @mweinbach

@mikmilmoment @memecrashes Link?

@phyde @flyosity It was also way too confusing. Despite using it 100s (maybe 1,000s) of times, it always took me a few seconds of trying to understand where I was supposed to tap and if it was in the correct state. I think the new UI is great but I hope that everyone can agree it had to change

@Spiffycaius @WorkaholicDavid What are you doing with it? My series 6 has been on it since the first developer beta and I haven’t experienced any lag or any noticeable bugs

[Ben Carlson @perkkocet]

@techantra @iDeviceHelpus It’s because it uses Bluetooth (BLE) which is nice for a very general finding but it’s not as accurate as UWB. It’s the same accuracy as finding an individual AirPod

@andres_madero0 @MacRumors Take it up with the UNICODE foundation

Recharged my iPad to find out that the original Twitter application is still installed. Let’s just say automatic updates are now off.

@chadunderwood @zollotech iOS 17 is a pretty major update (from a day one beta user). Pretty much everywhere there are small improvements, adding up to a large refresh over all, greatly enhancing quality of life. It’s much more substantial than the past 4-5 updates.

[Ben Carlson @perkkocet]

@TonY_GarciAa97 @mweinbach I would’ve low key waited until this month to do it so it bumped up to iOS 17 (only one set of big changes vs two) but hey, hindsight and all, no judgment

[Ben Carlson @perkkocet]

@MKBHD There are medical heath apps that help control medical devices. While you should be okay being on new updates, its better to be safe than sorry

[blaise ⟡ SPOILERS @crowleycvnt]

i know amazon sucks but prime kinda ate with showing the actors as they appear on screen

[Ben Carlson @perkkocet]

@egiiiil @concept_central I both can’t wait for and will be saddened for the day when Magnet and BetterSnapTool are Sherlocked

[Ben Carlson @perkkocet]

@naimjutha @SamiFathi_ I think it’s both. This event was meh but WWDC was so fast paced with so much that it set a whole new standard that can rarely be met

[Ben Carlson @perkkocet]

@VicVijayakumar Or their other equipment/resources.

[Ben Carlson @perkkocet]

@VicVijayakumar Numerous professors and teachers have mentioned to me to make sure that the code I produce on school computers isn’t used for commercial uses otherwise the school could lay claim to the IP

@unkwnymws @BeingAravind_ @stats_feed That’s not what Type 1 diabetes is…

Type 1 and Type 2 are very different, both in cause and severity.

[Ben Carlson @perkkocet]

@Daniel_Catalani @PR0GRAMMERHUM0R More like C++ vs Lisp

[Ben Carlson @perkkocet]

@daviderivola @Aella_Girl Sadly many people don’t know this… Makes the experience and the aftermath so much better

[Ben Carlson @perkkocet]

@TracketPacer PC as in Personal Computer or PC as in Program Counter? Both could be applicable so I gotta make sure

[Ben Carlson @perkkocet]

@Matty_EstUK @LorraineWillis1 @_SideQuest @NoContextHumans I agree with most, except it was started at the US. ARPANet was a US defense project and was the first “Internet”. After connecting many U.S universities, it eventually expanded over seas (this is after TCP/IP had been implemented which is arguably the foundation of the internet)
