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.

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

I just carry my laptop with me while walking around during meetings.

Not necessarily if we’re the one walking in with the DC++ server. Getting that thing up and running was suddenly priority #1 for the entire floor.

Walk in, press on button, hang up jacket and get stuff out of bag, type in password, grab coffee.

That’s a pretty common morning pattern I see.
