Also you need to pay (18k/year iirc) in addition to that as well. Next to the fact that matter itself is quite convoluted from an implementation standpoint.

It’s really not made with things like startups or niche products in mind. It’s really a standard by and for the big companies

My cat only wants belly rubs. Anything else isn’t good enough.

Except that these pagers were distributed to more than just hezbollah. AUB (American university of Beirut) medical workers had them too, for example.

Also fire departments, hospitals and other medical services. They’re extremely reliable, last a very long time on a charge and don’t shatter when you accidentally drop it.

Thanks! Seems there still isn’t a way to disable the left swipe camera though?

Wait, where do I disable the lockscreen camera? I haven’t yet found that option unfortunately.

It’s one of my most hated “features”, to the point where I just completely disabled the camera itself to get rid of it.

If you have a surround setup, try boosting only the center speaker. Dialog is usually played through that.

Someone else mentioned a compressor. If your tv/hifi has a night mode, it’s doing that exact thing.

The best part is that if they asked the guy nicely he’d be all too happy to struck a deal for an early retirement, but in typical American fashion they immediately showed up with lawyers and sued.

He made provisions since to ensure the US Wendy’s will never get that name, including opening more locations so that they’re now a “fast food chain” as well.

Even if you need Id/scanner. If the check is at the elevator on the ground floor it may often as well not exist.

I have a cousin that works at a petrochem plant. He told me that all the “common trips” never really happen since they’ve been drilled on how and what to do and how to prevent them, but the second shit really does go down you better have a senior around that has seen that specific trip before. Especially considering there’s tens/hundreds of thousands worth of produce being burned off by the second until things are back under control.

Switzerland has always been the go to holiday destination for my grandparents, parents and now me. The difference in pictures (and memories) between the generations is terrifying

Having moved to iPhone fairly recently I do like the overall experience, however Face ID is by far the biggest downside over a good under screen fingerprint scanner.

When picking up the phone and holding it in front of my face it works perfectly well, but that’s probably less than 50% of the unlocks I do.

Most of the time the phone would lie flat on a desk, on a nightstand, couch armrest etc. I can see and interact with the screen just fine, but the phone can’t see me properly. Making me pick the phone to quickly check a notification.

I’m probably entering my password about 4-5x as much as my old phone because of that
