    Got my iPhone’s screen repaired for free, even though the device is nearly two years old and I didn’t have apple care. Yay for german consumer laws? I’m happy either way.

    This cocktail glass reminds me of WWJC 2013: The evening before the conference, I met up with a group of people from the community in the New York Hard Rock Cafe. Our bill was so long that I got the glass as a goodie. (I wasn’t allowed to drink back then)

    My iPhone X suddenly developed a permanent 1px-wide green line on the display. Luckily, statutory warranty is two years here, looks like it’s gonna be a free repair. I got a 16GB loaner phone for now…

    Is the iPad-as-HomeKit Proxy feature working reliably for anyone? It works maybe one quarter of the time for me

    I just made a shortcut (iOS) to print files at university. It involves converting input to pdf (if necessary), choosing which pages to print, uploading the file via SSH and printing it with lpr(1). This is amazing!

    “WiFi selection in control center” Looks like my jailbreak tweak WiPi is finally getting sherlocked in iOS 13. Hooray, I’m not even mad 👍

    iOS 13 small things: - Low data mode - Bluetooth splitting - Emoji key - Download large apps on cellular - WiFi in control center home - Optimized battery charging

    I can’t believe it’s impossible to delete the up-next queue in the Spotify app. Do I really have manually delete the 200 songs from a playlist I added to the queue?

    Is it just me or does Safari on iOS sometimes freeze up after swiping to go back? The weird thing is, is doesn’t happen when using the back button. So frustrating!

    TIL: In , you can select text in a rectangular region with Alt + mouse. Super useful for tables, column layouts in PDFs!

    I would love a ‘digital first’ word processor, like Pages, or Word. But with no concept of ‘pages’ just a continuous flow of text (like a blog page or web page) designed to be consumed on a computer or iPad.

    There is a great book to be written about tracking all the places in tech (or even entertainment / nerdcore rap) the visitors of a handful of 90s IRC channels wound up.

    There is no 4K YouTube in Safari because: YouTube encodes anything over 1080p in a newer, more efficient VP9 codec Safari doesn’t support the VP9 codec, so users only see up to 1080p Booooooooooooooo

    🏃‍♂️ Fast Theos is fast. Parallel building support is to be merged in soon, so you can take advantage of all logical cores on your machine (not just one!).

    Can anyone recommend a decent bedside lamp with an integrated Qi-charger? I only found ugly ones so far…
