@SiTweet Currently iOS. I feel like this always happens and there’s no reason provided.

Automatic Software Updates

When you don’t plug it in:
“😤 I couldn’t update because you didn’t plug me in”

When you plug it in:
“🫠 What update? I’m feeling kinda laaaaaazy”

@davidhoang @judson @jessicahische @StrangeNative Those tacos were inhaled in under 10 minutes.

@ardyD1manparty I didn’t know about that technique.

Does anyone else do the battery trick when they die where you re-arrange the batteries and magically you get an extra 10–20% out of them?

@rebuildfm @miyagawa @N “Text Laundering” is such a good phrase for passing your writing through ChatGPT so it doesn’t sound like you wrote it. #rebuildfm

Our toddler started saying “I don’t have an answer to that” apparently because the Google Home says it a lot. 🤣

I think I’m officially old because I’ve been listening to the Symphony Hall channel on SiriusXM.

@miyagawa @hak I enjoy the プシュ.

I can see Apple News+ being worth it if they offer issues from the future.

The fact that this phishing email says the method of payment was "Plastic Card". 😂

I had no intensions of using Stage Manager for the iPad after reading reviews but I think it’s pretty useful. I only turn it on when I need to use multiple apps at once but it’s a lot easier to use than the split-screen, hovering window mess.

Natto, Batch 3.

Apparently, this works.

@SalilMalkan Also thought of how I have a queue for podcast episodes. Is it a separate queue from the music queue or does it overwrite? Also would make sense for different contexts.

[Xegyn @Xegyn]

I want my music, audiobooks, and podcasts in the same app… said no one.

[Xegyn @Xegyn]

@SalilMalkan I think it’s easier to use the same app on a long uninterrupted walk but I switch between spoken and music based on what I’m doing and ability to concentrate at the time.

[Xegyn @Xegyn]

@SalilMalkan I also think downloads should be treated differently e.g. auto-download/delete for podcasts and not the other. Fast forward/rewind is also different e.g. seconds vs track, which I guess you can change based on what’s playing but not my preference.

[Xegyn @Xegyn]

@SalilMalkan I want them to be different contexts because the way you listen and when you listen can be different. If I’m listening to an artist and an album I don’t want to lose my navigation when I listen to an audiobook or podcast.
