It would be a real shame if someone used apple products for everything, being stuck with only the like button šŸ˜­

If anyone figures out how to fix it, please post here or let me know. Until then itā€™s thumbs up for everything. šŸ‘

Here's a thought. If you agree with or love a comment, just write that you agree with it or love it. That's what we used to do back in the stone age.

We had even better reactions back then. Lollipop, beer, cake, all the good ones, šŸ˜€.

The only reason I updated my phone is because the dashcam app for my car stopped working. Iā€˜m hoping I can get the dashcam/app/connection/whatever it is to work back soon.

i want to update. But i know the second i do that, my phone will not work as well anymore and near its end. I dont have money to buy a new cellphone. I hate how they make things to die. I could buy oneā€¦ i just dont want to spend that kind on money on a phone.

our date is some of the most expensive in the world too. So i like my bill to be low as possible. I dont even have a contract anymore and they keep harassing me to upgrade.

i shall not. THEY SHALL NOT PASS.

I hate how the mobile system changed here to now you to need a phone contract. When I was a teenager and growing up we always used to ā€œpay as you goā€ vouchers to buy like Ā£10 or Ā£20 top up cards and theyā€™d fill your phone for maybe 6 months or until it ran out. For someone who doesnā€™t use phones a lot it was really good. But theyā€™ve slowly phased that out by now and you need a phone contract to get by. Also 3G/4G and wifi didnā€™t even exist (Iā€™ve only had 5G once here in the UK and that was in Manchester Airport :rofl:).

My old phone, an iPhone 7 lasted me 7 years, I only replaced it because I had to. My iPhone 14 is on its third year now, Iā€™m not a fan of how big and heavy the 14 is compared to the 7 but its the direction everything is going. I probably need new trainers too (my current Nike rosches are on 7 years) but theyā€™re still going so I donā€™t need to šŸ˜…

Just a couple of things:

The site has not had any changes on the backend recently. If the browser you are using suddenly works differently after it was upgraded, it's most likely an issue with the update to your browser.

There are two things that control which "reactions" are available:
  • What usergroups you are a member of
  • What forum you are "reacting" in.
Different usergroups have different reactions available to them and not all forums allow all different reactions. In other words not all reactions available to you will be useable in all forums. Forums under the "Arachnoboards Information" category have less reactions available to use than the other categories.

Without doubt, this is an issue caused by updates to the OS. To give an analogy, This is a new computer I'm on running the laatest version of Windows 10. Side by side in this thing is a very early version on Win 10. They might as well be two entirely different computers.
Now I am on the same computer booted from a different drive. Same new Win 10 version without updates for 10 months. A third version but with several more features and functions that the newest update eliminated. Trying to get similar functions from the various versions of the OS I have repeatedly referred to MS web site for trouble shooting. Their instructions and images of the various screens are entirely different from my three version and many of the fixes their web site shows and refers to differ from all of them.
And now I'm on the backup bare bones August 2024 Win 10 drive. MS insistently demands I update the OS. Very nice. An alien OS with tiles instead of icons and a vast assortment of pop ups advertising unrelated sites and apps going off every minute or so.
So what do I have, five or six Windows 10s? Each with different displays and or functionality. I'm going to try a trick here.
Okay, this is a severely hacked Windows 10 in my old computer with Windows 10 from around 2018 or 19. No pop ups, and best of all, no MS warnings on everything telling me I have to have adminsitrative privileges to run programs and access the various system settings.

Long story short, every update on any computer or phone = an alien OS with different functionality. I'm not even going to try the old backup computer running Win 7. And beware, IOS is as bad or worse than MS. My partner's old IOS phone has been gathering dust for over a year. Still fully functional but her new pure Android Samsung runs circles around it speed wise, and functionality and apps place the two phones as from different planets.

PS Windows 11: One OS to rule them all, Edge browser to find them, one uber lord to rule them all and in One Drive bind them. In the land of Microsoft where the profits are. (Edge built into the OS firmware and untouchable, Bing the OS default also embedded in the firmware along with a Google partnership and the entire computer slaved to remote MS control, and all your data on their machines DBs.
