Apple has not made the necessary APIs available. Only those two apps have animated icons. They’re made by Apple and so they are able to use the private APIs needed to do it.

I’m picturing a vast apple pie desert with an ice cream oasis.

Is this true? I don’t use a Magic Mouse but my Magic Trackpad and Apple wireless keyboard both give low battery warnings.

Or they changed the headline and due to caches CDNs or other reasons you didn’t get the newer one.

archive.today has your original headline cached.

Thanks for posting. While it’s a needlessly provocative headline, if that’s what the article headline was, then that is what the Lemmy one should be.

That is odd. It’s not what I see:

Salted butter is a condiment.

Unsalted butter is an ingredient.

A very poor Lemmy article headline. The linked article says “alleged” and clearly there were multiple factors involved.

 

Is there a way to turn off haptics when a server error happens?

Various Lemmy servers that Arctic connects to are sometimes down. Even my host, lemm.ee, one of the more reliable ones, was down for a few minutes this morning. During this time I was trying to read an article but got an error message with haptics every few seconds. I would like to turn off the haptics when this happens.

If you’re up-to-date it’s been patched.

It seems like “globally” doesn’t include the US this time. We need more affordable options here and Stellantis needs to get in the game.

Someone, maybe Elon, told him some stuff about hydrogen vehicles and he’s regurgitating it in a jumbled way.

He’s always been incoherent and intellectually lazy. Not good qualities for a president. Now combine that with burnout from doing rally after rally and you get this. But I’m not sure I’d describe it as cognitive decline.

 

About 3 or 4 years ago PayPal added the option to buy cryptocurrency, which I thought I’d try. (Dumb idea 🙄)

Part of the sign up process was glitched. I retried and clicked submit one too many times, I guess. Now I’ve been unable to use PayPal for years. They blocked me because THEIR SITE was broken, but the web page essentially accuses me of being a criminal and asks for my bank records. No way in hell.

This was just for me to pay others. I can only imagine how awful PayPal is if you are a vendor.

Fuck PayPal.

“Failed to mark post as read” errors

I see this error almost every time I open the comments on a post.

My server is lemm.ee. Does it not support the “mark as read” feature?

I don’t know when they were added, but I just noticed that spoiler tags are supported.

Comedian Lewis Black has a routine about “a Starbucks across the street from a Starbucks”. Apple Stores aren’t nearly as common.

Unless you’re in Glendale, California -- where Apple Glendale Galleria is across the street from Apple The Americana at Brand.

Are there any other Apple Stores this close together?

The stores are less than 150 meters apart, but unfortunately they aren’t within sight of each other. As you exit Apple The Americana at Brand, you won’t see the other Apple Store — only a notably uncrowded Samsung Experience Store.

New EV owner here. We charge at home so I don’t need to use them, but stores nearby have chargers. I tried them to see how they work. They are often broken.

One store has a Volta charger (free!). It worked great the first time; the next time I went it was broken.

Walmart has an Electrify America fast charger. The first time I went, 1 of 3 was not working. The next time I went, 1 of 3 was not working, but it was a different one.

Was I unlucky, or are these charging networks unreliable? Has it been getting better or worse over time?

 

We need ‘em!

What’s the policy for this community if we want to discuss current shows? And does Lemmy have a way to mark spoilers?
