I heard that doing a restore without backup can fix the non responsive touchscreen issues on the 6 and that it's somehow a software issue, but idk

Sometimes my iPhone 7's Taptic Engine taps real loud after sending a text. I guess that's what it is, anyhow. It's like a real obvious slapping noise.

Dixie Cretin Seaman posted:the UI element that shows what's currently playing is just weird to me, it morphs from an info bar thingy into a scrolling panel thingy. when you pull down on it the top edge gets pulled along with it like it's physically connected to the content, but it also has scrollbars that scroll content without that top edge moving. it's a mess i feel like it wouldn't annoy me so much if it didn't always take a second to load whenever i wanted to skip a track within the app. i also find it a bit weird that you have to go into an overflow menu to 'love' a track, which also takes a second or two to load. the older ui was kind of cluttered but it seems like the kind of thing that should really be front and centre. then again i listen to a fair bit of music on my mac, and have a widget that lets you easily favourite the current song on itunes and last.fm at the same time, and the itunes recommendations are 90% stuff that i've already listened to, or just very very generic. so i guess they're just not surfacing a feature that doesn't really work well, rather than actually fixing it. the artist specific curated playlists are quite good though, i'd love more of those. talking of features that don't really work right, how is connect still so bad? i forgot it even existed until i went actively hunting for it just now. the spotify 'show me what my facebook friends are listening to in a sidebar' concept isn't exactly a difficult idea to understand

Astoundingly Ugly Baby posted:this implies that there is a level of dog poo poo that isn't garbage. one summer i was helping in a neighborhood cleanup and this one guy had a 55 gallon trash can that was all duct taped up and he told us to throw the entire can away. it was really heavy and took three of us to put it in the garbage truck. then the garbage man ran the compressor and it popped the can open. it was completely filled with dog poo poo. i don't know the normal poo poo output of a dog but this guy had to have been saving it up for quite some time. the compression action spread the dog poo poo over the rest of the garbage like the world's worst chili dog. the humid air seemed to send the smell directly into our nostrils and my best description of the odor would be "satan's rear end in a top hat." anyway that's my ios11 story
