How to Undo Your iPhone's New Look After iOS 26

https://lifehacker.com/tech/how-to-undo-iphone-ios-26-liquid-glass
Called Reduce Transparency, this control has been around for years, and was originally intended as a way to add a solid background to any pre-Liquid Glass elements that already had transparent or blurred backgrounds, like the Passcode entry screen. Now, though, it turns out it also affects Liquid Glass as a whole.

IMG_0416 - ben-mini

https://ben-mini.github.io/2024/img-0416
Apple uses the ‘IMG_XXXX’ naming convention for all images and videos captured on iOS devices, where XXXX is a unique sequence number. The first image you take is named “IMG_0001”, the second is “IMG_0002” and so on. During the Send to YouTube era of 2009 and 2012, the title of one’s YouTube video was defaulted to this naming convention. Unwitting content creators would then upload their videos on a public site with a barely-searchable name. To this day, there are millions of these videos.

10 things the iPhone Siri will help you get instead of an abortion | The Raw Story

http://www.rawstory.com/rs/2011/11/29/10-things-the-iphone-siri-will-help-you-get-instead-of-an-abortion
It’s an experience that’s being replicated by women around the country: despite plentiful online information about actual places to get an abortion, Siri doesn’t seem to provide it. It’s a similar experience for women seeking emergency contraception: in New York City, Siri doesn’t know what Plan B is and, asked for emergency contraception, offers up a Google results page of definitions. Didn't we learn from HAL 9000 that it doesn't really pay to give your tools their own opinionated personalities?

iPhone alarms still not working, worlds crashing left and right

http://www.engadget.com/2011/01/03/iphone-alarms-still-not-working-worlds-crashing-left-and-right
iPhone 4 handsets not wake us as promised (on non-recurring alarms), so who knows when Apple will step up to the plate and address the issue. In the meantime, go ahead and set up a recurring alarm while gently crossing your fingers and toes. Or, you know, buy a battery-powered alarm clock off of your grandmother.

Settings.bundle doesn’t appear in iPhone Settings « A Different Projection

http://www.mercatorgeosystems.com/blog?p=70
"Settings bundles are only added to the phone the first time the application is installed. If you’ve worked on an application and deployed it to your development device or simulator before adding the settings.bundle to your XCode project then subsequent build and runs won’t add the settings unless you remove the app from the device or simulator in the usual way. i.e by pressing and holding the app icon and removing it when it starts shaking."

Why Apple Could Sue Gawker Over 'Lost' iPhone Story - DailyFinance

http://www.dailyfinance.com/story/why-apple-could-sue-gawker-over-lost-iphone-story/19447570
"What he never did, however, was notify anyone who worked at the bar, according to its owner, Volcker Staudt. That would have been the simplest way to get the phone back to the Apple employee who lost it, who "called constantly trying to retrieve it" in the days afterward, recalls Volcker. "The guy was pretty hectic about it." Nor did the finder report it to the Redwood City Police Department, says Sgt. Dan Mulholland."

Robert Love: Why the iPad and iPhone don’t Support Multitasking

http://blog.rlove.org/2010/04/why-ipad-and-iphone-dont-support.html
"So how is Apple going to enable support for multitasking? Likely similar to how Android allows it. The Android platform was designed from the ground up for use on phones and other embedded devices. Consequently, we built in a mechanism whereby applications can save their state, including their current view, with the system. In fact, through this state saving mechanism, which we call Bundles, Android applications can operate as if they are stateless."

Mimeo and the Kleptopus King // ShaunInman.com

http://shauninman.com/archive/2010/02/23/mimeo_and_the_kleptopus_king
"Mimeo (even the name) started as a Mario clone with a twist: instead of power-ups affecting the player, they affect the entire game world. A story and mythos quickly developed. The so-called Mimeoverse consists of two 16-bit demiverses sharing 32-bits between them. When the evil Kleptopus King, an 8-bit octopus with an inferiority complex, discovers a portal into Mimeo’s realm and begins to syphon off its bits, Mimeo is sucked in and downsampled to 2-bit. So begins Mimeo’s quest to restore balance to the demiverses."

Does A Private Company Own Your Muni Arrival Times?: News: SFAppeal

http://sfappeal.com/news/2009/06/who-owns-sfmta-arrival-data.php
"When Steven Peterson created Routesy, an iPhone app that lets riders see Muni arrival times, the last thing he expected was to hear was that Muni's real-time arrival times were actually the property of a private company located in the East Bay. But that's exactly what happened, when Alex Orloff, COO of a company calling itself NextBus Information Systems, contacted him in August, 2008, demanding a "straight revenue split" or a "data licensing agreement" from Peterson.

Ars Reviews the Palm Pre, part 1: the BlackBerry killer - Ars Technica

http://arstechnica.com/gadgets/news/2009/06/ars-reviews-the-palm-pre-part-1-the-blackberry-killer.ars
I have an iPod Touch, so I have the media. I want the messaging. "In all, Palm put as much effort into making the webOS a first-rate messaging experience as Apple did into making the iPhone a first-rate media experience, and with just as much success. So if most of your communication consists of Twitter, email, SMS, and IM with the people in your Facebook network and/or Gmail contacts list, then the Pre will do for your personal messaging what your work BlackBerry does for your business messaging."

Apple Rejects EFF Updates App, Claims Parody Content Is Objectionable | Electronic Frontier Foundation

http://www.eff.org/deeplinks/2009/06/oh-come-apple-reject
"Let's be clear: we are not saying that Apple has to carry apps it doesn't like in its App Store. But iPhone owners who don't want Apple playing the role of language police for their software should have the freedom to go elsewhere. This is precisely why EFF has asked the Copyright Office to grant an exemption to the DMCA for jailbreaking iPhones. It's none of Apple's business if I want an app on my phone that lets me read EFF's RSS feed, use Sling Player over 3G, or read the Kama Sutra."

Whither Eucalyptus? - Jamie’s Web Log

http://www.blog.montgomerie.net/whither-eucalyptus
"If you’re wondering why Eucalyptus is not yet available, it’s currently in the state of being ‘rejected’ for distribution on the iPhone App Store. This is due to the fact that it’s possible, after explicitly searching for them, to find, download from the Internet, and then read texts that Apple deems ‘objectionable’. The example they have given me is a Victorian text-only translation of the Kama Sutra of Vatsyayana. "

Core77.com :: View topic - corrugate iPhone document scanner - free template!

http://boards.core77.com/viewtopic.php?t=16370
"When I got my iPhone last year I loved having everything important in one place, and the ability to get rid of unneccesary devices, documents and information i kept with me. I would frequently snap photos of class assignments printed on copy paper so I wouldn’t have to worry about losing them. The documents normally came out pretty clear, but it was tough to keep still while taking the pictures. I set out to make something that would ensure clean, consistent pictures of documents taken with the iPhone that would be free and easy to make on your own. And so, here you will find pictures of and a link to a template to make your own iPhone document scanner. "
