11% increase in revenue. Lays off a thousand employees. Great to see capitalism working for people and not corporations.

Yeah. He went to that other school with my girlfriend in Canada. My uncle who worked for Nintendo knows all about it.

What’s the tiniest thing about iOS / iPadOS / macOS that really bugs you? in c/apple_enthusiast@lemmy.world

It should be in control center, or configurable to be put there.

Ringtone volume is set under “Sounds & Haptics” in settings.

It’s a “sticky” setting in that, if you have “change with buttons” turned off, you have to go back to settings to adjust the notification/ringtone volume, but I’ve always treated ringtones as on/off rather than specific volume levels, because of the silent switch. I don’t ever want my phone to ring loud, so I have the volume set low just in case I happened to forget to put it in silent mode.

As much as we have Lucas to thank for the movies getting made, it cannot be overstated just how important Ralph was (and continues to be) to the visual language of Star Wars. I love that shows like Rebels, Obi-Wan, and The Mandalorian have incorporated so many of his previously unused designs. His work is the gift that keeps on giving.

This is why I block users who share garbage after the first few times I notice it. For example, this will be the last post I see from OP.

Your Apple Watch Bands May Not Work With Next Year's Model in c/apple_enthusiast@lemmy.world

Imagine if the same complaints were leveled at people every time Samsung put out a new watch, phone, or tablet. Some of these are just cell radio variations, but come on.

Your Apple Watch Bands May Not Work With Next Year's Model in c/apple_enthusiast@lemmy.world

Some variation of this rumor has floated around for years now. Every year we get people saying Apple’s going to change the band design and make old bands incompatible with new watches.

Will it happen at some point? Sure. Do I think it’ll be this next year? No. A magnetic connection seems like the exact kind of thing Apple would want to do if it were practical, but for a device that is used in the range of activities the watch is, it’s not.
