@jncn Ik arriveer zondagochtend in BRU en zit momenteel in JFK. 6 uur tijdsverschil. Dat handelt @railerapp niet juist af:

@wimleers Goeie catch! Ik fix het. Voor de duidelijkheid, je wilt in de time picker de Belgische tijd instellen? Normaal zijn alle tijden in Railer in Belgische tijd, maar daar moet ergens een bug zitten.

@wimleers Check! De fix is ondertussen beschikbaar 😇 En inderdaad logisch om in Belgische tijd te denken!

TIL if you have your iPhone plugged into your Mac and you do an AirDrop transfer, it can actually use the wired connection, so for iPhone 15 Pro/Max if you use a really good USB-C cable, you can transfer several gigabytes over AirDrop really quickly. Just used this to transfer some videos from the Blackmagic Cam app. WireDrop? 😅

@_inside Does this work between iPhones as well? 😍

I guess the cat is out of the box. Someone posted my latest draft to Hacker News, so now it’s open for everyone: https://tonsky.me/blog/checkbox/

@nikitonsky Loved this piece, but unfortunately, this shit was already introduced with iPhone OS, all the way in 2007.

Radio buttons are just checkmarks, and checkboxes are checkmarks in a round shape (the latter being only used in a multi select pattern):

A screenshot of an early version of iOS with round multi select checkboxes in Mail.app (in red somehow, the default is blue).

In my experience, enabling "Use for development" in Xcode substantially lowers my iPhone's battery life. It's been that way since at least 2018, when I first noticed my battery drained faster when on work Wi-Fi.

Is this a thing? A quick web search turned up nothing.

@Cykelero even if “Connect via network” was unchecked?

It bothers me that the launch date of the Vision Pro was announced in a press release.

I was certain that this would have warranted an event in itself, where Apple could tell more of the story and invite third-party developers who have built great experiences for the platform.

I think Apple have yet to convince me why I should strap a $3,500 computer to my head.

jncn,
@jncn@mastodon.social avatar

@simonbs Thats the issue imo, they don’t know the compelling use case themselves

Over the summer I didn't have time to do a proper watchOS 10 redesign for Pedometer++. I am now tackling that project, which is actually much easier now that I've actually lived with watchOS 10's redesign for several months.

Something I found super helpful was to take a screenshot of every screen in the app and lay out the current UI hierarchy, which when I see it laid out like this is a bit of a mess. But I couldn't tell how much of a mess without the perspective of seeing it all at once.

@_Davidsmith Thank you! A very welcome change. I always felt like I was using my moms phone in your apps 😅

iPad feature I'd love: deep sleep. I find whenever I go a few days or a week between using an iPad, it's often dead or almost dead. An auto-deep sleep mode after 24 hours of non-use would be awesome, even if it took 5 seconds or so to wake back up

Sorry RailEurope I think you’re bullshitting here at

You’re not offering even close to cheapest prices on Paris-Frankfurt - more than €15 more than DB. I assume RailEurope only uses SNCF’s API for inOui

SNCF Connect prices
DB prices

For those who want to know what's going on on Twitter in the last few months, here's a summary:

July
🪫 My 10 months old iPhone 14 Pro has just 91% Maximum Capacity. Is this normal?

August
🤫 My cousin is ordering an iPhone 14 Pro Max 1TB, should I tell?

September
🔥 My brand new iPhone 15 Pro Max get's so hot I can barely touch it. Is this bad?

@wimleers Apparently, or at least that’s the only kind of tweets I see right now 😅

Planning on traveling to Tokyo / Osaka / Kyoto in May of next year with my oldest son. Any tips / suggestions / do's and don'ts / ... ?

Best options to get there (yeah, not with a boat ...)

jncn,
@jncn@mastodon.social avatar

@wimleers @wolfr @iworx Watch out though! Prices of rail passes will go way up from next week, so be sure to do the math.

In my experience, you can just go without up front reservation. There’s a high frequency of trains, including the high speed trains. Going to the station 30-45 min in advance to book a seat for Shinkansen and you should be good. For other trains just jump on with PASMO.

More info about the price increase: https://www.japan-guide.com/news/japan-rail-pass-cost-increase.html

Question ONLY for followers of mine using Android, Windows and Linux

What apps are you using to access Mastodon? Are they free? And would you recommend them to others?

And on Windows and Linux are the apps significantly better than the Mastodon advanced web interface for you?

(I know the Mac / iOS app environment well already)

@jon To be fair, too many people from any origin would do exactly the same in Brussels 😕

jncn,
@jncn@mastodon.social avatar

@jon I also don’t get why the city leaves that space there. On this square and on many others. That tree 3 meters further towards the street gives more space for the square and no parking opportunity.

jncn,
@jncn@mastodon.social avatar

@jon Yes of course. I’m all for these filters. I walk on that square almost every day to go to Delhaize 😅 Huge improvement already. But as always in Brussels: the execution lacks.

Really SNCF, Auvergne-Rhône-Alpes and Bourgogne-Franche-Comté

I’m sick of this shit. Sick of it

I HAVE TICKETS FOR MY WHOLE ROUTE. Tickets Lyon P D-Tournus, and Tournus-Nuits sous Ravières. Booked that way because each region’s reduction cards aren’t fully compatible

And now the train manager tells me having two tickets like this ISN’T ALLOWED, and he could fine me. He didn’t because I explained, but he wasn’t amused

Here’s why I have 2 tickets: https://gruene.social/@jon/110933138992725058

Threads is the most fun, most interesting new product of the year, and no one in the E.U. can use it, or will be able to use it anytime soon, because their own elected officials passed a law that effectively bans it.

Nice job. Have fun over here in the library.

@gruber To be honest, I’ve seen less Europeans complain about that, than I have seen Threads users complain about Threads 😅

@jon@gruene.social avatar

Countdown page for Meta’s Threads app https://www.threads.net/

Gives an iOS “pre order” that then… error. Are they only launching this in the US at the start? (My App Store Account is home country Germany)

(And don’t shame me for wanting to test this - I want to know how this works!)

jncn,
@jncn@mastodon.social avatar

@jon US launch on Thursday, Friday worldwide.

jncn,
@jncn@mastodon.social avatar

@jon Yeah, that’s the pre order feature of the App Store.

The reason is that Apple doesn’t allow to set different launch dates for different regions with this feature.

In the Threads launch scenario, they set a launch date for the US and hid it for the rest of the world.

On Friday then, someone at Meta will have to manually flip the switch for all other countries and it will be available instantly.

Apollo will close down on June 30th. Reddit’s recent decisions and actions have unfortunately made it impossible for Apollo to continue. Thank you so, so much for all the support over the years. ❤️ https://www.reddit.com/r/apolloapp/comments/144f6xm/apollo_will_close_down_on_june_30th_reddits/
