there’s a fantastic bug in iOS that I hope they never patch. if you long press an already-long pressed notification, you can open writing tools and re-write notifications. “Hope you find it!”

Notification content: TIME SENSITIVE; Yesterday, 9:45 AM: "Sam's Backpack" left behind. This item is no longer detected near you. It was last seen near (REDACTED)

Writing tools sheet in “Friendly” mode:
Hey there! It seems like the item you're
looking for isn't around you anymore. It
was last spotted near (REDACTED). Good luck finding it!

@samhenrigold “adventurous” is certainly one way to describe the beta train

IF YOU WORK AT APPLE, DO NOT FIX THIS BUG. WORKS AS INTENDED. P4. CLOSE. MARK AS RESOLVED. REPRESENTATIVE.

do you think if i rubbed my phone on marc andreessen’s head it would get all scratched up

@samhenrigold Once you’ve seen one Eiffel Tower, you’ve seen them all

They put a fence around this thing!!! It wasn't there in 2012 when I first visited. You used to be able to just walk freely under it.

one of my favorite thing when visiting a new city is just browsing a grocery store. i just bought some nature flavored doritos at a franprix. hoping it tastes like mulch and grass clippings

Thomas N :yikes:

@samhenrigold see you must be in paris? no other city really has the franprix vibe

Chris Lowles

@samhenrigold Don't let any aussie TV network know about this, they practically shove I'm A Celebrity and Deal Or No Deal down their audiences throats.

paid €10 to post from the airplane to respectfully ask Europe to figure out your attached bottle cap nonsense before i land

Григорий Клюшников

hate to admit it but I kinda like it because you don't have to hold the cap separately while you drink

Freddy

@samhenrigold Open the cap, and twist the bottle 90 degrees (counter)clockwise. You can drink easily and sea creatures will sing your name and bless you.

Boingo Hotspot would be a beautiful unisex name for a baby

In the Air France lounge and thinking to myself “man there are a lot of French speakers here” and then I remembered “oh yeah”

sam henri gold

“Avez-vous terminé?” SPEAK AMERICA- oh shit that’s right I’m on your turf. Uhh yeah merci

bouriquet

@samhenrigold Ah the AF lounge. Decent food, nice champagne. Clarins massage and facials in Paris.
Showers in the arrivals lounge after a long flight, along with an espresso, croissant and juice afterwards

Can relate. When I first traveled abroad when I was 19, and yes that was also France (via Finland), the concept that people can by default speak something that isn't Russian, including kids (oh wow he's so little and already speaks Finnish), and expect me to speak that language as well, absolutely blew my mind

heavily judging the user in this screenshot for paying $15 for a cab that’s otherwise a 15 minute walk or 8 minutes via subway

a curb taxi ad showing someone going to 119 7th ave from penn station
the route charted on apple maps. 15 minute walk, less than a mile

@samhenrigold it’s potentially three in the morning tho

TuffyPuff

@samhenrigold that's ableist. Many people can't walk 15 minutes...

finding out Gap makes the same sweatshirt with the name of the nearest large city and it isn’t just them making “New York” sweatshirts in that varsity font youtu.be/vYd_bMNacno

The Internet Archive needs to protect the Wayback Machine like hell. Make it a separate organization or something. But with the constant barrage of life-or-death lawsuits against the IA, it would be wildly irresponsible to let Wayback become collateral damage.

Zło To

@samhenrigold they should make it into a blockchain, distributed and secure

DFY fan for life (she/her)

@samhenrigold that's an interesting take. when was the last time you donated to IA? maybe it's time for a community donations drive.

i love searching for a phrase here only to find that nobody else has said it on this network before. so let me be the first to say:

Let's Get Lost – Carly Rae Jepsen may be an album track but it's a single in my heart.

Volume all the way up and then some

wild that not a single food delivery app shows the restaurant’s safety grade. no way to know if a place has an A-grade 9 points or a C-grade 60 points.

It’s a shame the name “System of a Down” is being used, it would be great for a downloader utility.

I just bought an iPad mini yesterday and hooo boy lemme tell you. If this thing weren’t treated like a compliance car, it would be unstoppable. An iPad with Face ID, ProMotion, and OLED that I can slip into my coat’s inner pocket? I’d be unstoppable. God would fear me.

@samhenrigold the scientists were so preoccupied with if they could, etc

Kinda curious about the TikTok ban technically. I wonder if they snuck some updating mechanism in the app before it gets removed from stores
