#i hate ios. i hate apple

[paradoxiii]

My mood this evening has been "fuck Procreate & DOUBLE FUCK APPLE"

My ipad is running very low on storage. I cannot put an SD card inside it like my (android) phone so I bought an adapter (as well as an SD card bc the two I have are in my switch & my phone)

I cannot move Procreate to the SD card like how I can move apps on my phone to the SD card. Procreate hosts my art files inside the app itself & I cannot access those files from the files app. So I have to export the files to the SD card.

I spent a while trying to figure out some backdoor ish way of being able to move the original files instead of essentially making copies. I even looked up ios emulators (I have Nox installed on my laptop which is an android emulator) but the ones I found are for developers.

So now, after I had copied all my procreate files to this SD card, I have decided that I am going to be done with Procreate and just shell out the $5/month for CSP. So now I am exporting all my procreate files as PSDs so I can open them in CSP if I so choose.

EDIT: Okay now that I've slept, I'm less mad at procreate. I did end up deleting it last night, but I know that the devs are generally pretty chill (and against AI stuff last I checked) so saying "fuck procreate" is a little extreme. I will forever hate Apple though so they can still fuck off.

i'm begging you guys to start pirating shit from streaming platforms. there are so many websites where you can stream that shit for free, here's a quick HOW TO:

1) Search for: watch TITLE OF WORK free online

2) Scroll to the bottom of results. Click any of the "Complaint" links

3) You will be taken to a long list of links that were removed for copyright infringement. Use the 'find' function to search for the name of the show/movie you were originally searching for. You will get something like this (specifics removed because if you love an illegal streaming site you don't post its url on social media)

4) each of these links is to a website where you can stream shit for free. go to the individual websites and search for your show/movie. you might have to copy-paste a few before you find exactly what you're looking, but the whole process only takes a minute. the speed/quality is usually the same as on netflix/whatever, and they even have subtitles! (make sure to use an adblocker though, these sites are funded by annoying popups)

In conclusion, if you do this often enough you will start recognizing the most dependable websites, and you can just bookmark those instead. (note: this is completely separate from torrenting, which is also a beautiful thing but requires different software and a vpn)

you can also download the media in question (look for a "download" button built into the video window, or use a browser extension such as Video DownloadHelper.)

my stardew farmer ^_^ he doesnt have a green thumb for shit so he keeps animals and does mining

some tidbits i came up with while playing hehe

reclusive and doesnt really go out of his way to talk or visit people unless its an errand. but he also doesnt try to befriend others to get something out of it, so he has a very easygoing approach to making friends. on good terms with linus and sebastian since he runs into them most often.

if he respects or takes a liking to someone, he'll greet them with miss/mister (name). if you get close to him he starts using first name basis. if he doesn't like you, he'll refer to you by your title without using your name. only a few people have caught on to this.

the farm he inherited, Milky Way Farm, was the site of a meteorite crash and sometimes you can find shards of meteor debris littered around the farm (i picked the hilltop farm bc of this lol)

lost his sweater and pants a long ass time ago and doesnt have the time to look for them, so hes been working in his sleep clothes ever since

isnt actually grandpa's real heir to the farm... ;)

apple pls

If you're enjoying tumblr thru the app on an apple device, you may not see ANY of the submissions coming in. If you're only seeing reblogs, our ads, and original posts, start using your browser for tumblr.

Hey, so, Patreon is lying to you about Apple forcing their hand.

Patreon is getting rid of 1st-of-the-month/per-creation billing, claiming a new decision by Apple has forced their hand. This will hurt a lot of creatives, and their excuse is bullshit. Allow me to explain.

In 2018, Patreon tried to impose a new ill-considered fee structure on everyone that would have cost creators a lot of smaller pledges. They ended up apologizing for this profusely; they have now deleted this apology from their website and unfortunately I was unable to find it on the Internet Archive. This was shameful, but to their credit they backed off quickly when things got ugly.

Back in 2021, Patreon discussed plans to force all creators into a rolling bill structure and get rid of first-of-the-month/pay-up-front billing. The community once again very decisively shouted them down, and they had to walk it back again. This whole fiasco damaged the already shaky trust between Patreon creators and staff.

This week, Patreon announced that, along with extra fees, Apple's policies were supposedly forcing them to move everyone over to the rolling fee structure that they first tried to get us to agree to in 2021. Patreon will tell you they are not happy about this. As a person who spent a long time watching Patreon make terrible decisions, I can tell you-- they are probably very happy about this, because it's exactly the smokescreen they needed to do what they've been trying to do for years, which is pull ALL Patreon creators away from 1st-of-the-month and per-creation billing.

The spin in the news I've seen so far is "Apple bullies Patreon, boo hoo hoo poor Patreon". This is very obviously not what's happening. Mind you: Apple does suck, and they are doing something bad here. Fuck apple. But Patreon and Apple are BOTH the asshole in this situation; Everyone Sucks Here. Patreon has options: they can make the iOS app a reader app and do billing through the browser to avoid the restrictions and the extra fees (Netflix and Amazon, notably, both do this), or they can allow creators to opt-out of iOS billing if they want to use billing models that don't work with it.

It seems most likely to me that the Apple situation is a real fire that Patreon has chosen to use as a convenient smokescreen to do what they've been wanting to do since at least 2021, and maybe since 2018.

What do we do?:

They have a feedback form specifically about this.

They also have a creator discord.

And they have lots of social media pages where they probably really, really hope that this doesn't blow up again, because they never learn. The incidents I've described here aren't the only two other times Patreon has pissed off their creators. They know if they don't contain the noise it'll be harder to get away with it, so make some noise. They've done a lot of work to spin this cleverly so you'll have sympathy for them and they won't get the kind of backlash they know they deserve.

Please don't misuse these links and make threats or spam or something. All you have to do is give well-reasoned feedback. Patreon hates feedback. Make sure they get a nice heaping helping of their least favorite vegetable.

I was not looking for a reason to never see a marvel movie ever again. I already avoid them like the plague. Haven't seen most of them tbh, but I get filled in because tumblr movie Fandom is like that. But yeah I don't think I want to ever see a marvel movie ever again.

Do you guys remember when the apple airpods were first released ~2016/17. And people started making jokes about 'broke/cheap' people using wired earphones. And it was trendy to always keep an airpod in, even if you weren't listening to anything, even if you were in a conversation with someone.

And then less and less people used wired earphones outside.

And then, starting with apple, a bunch of phones with no headphone jacks were released, prompting even more people to discard their wired earphones and purchases airpods.

Airpods are notoriously expensive and notoriously easy to lose.

Add all these facts up, and you get a rusty theory on why these twats watch shit on their phones out loud in public like savages

[chaos-sonic]
