Disappearing message notification / message app freeze

> I received a text notification from an unknown number earlier today. I'm usually suspicious of such things, but clicked the notification. The messages app loaded, but displayed a blank white screen until I closed the app. After doing so, there was no evidence of the message notification or the message itself, in any of the message categories (known, unknown, all, deleted messages, etc). > > This is on an iPhone 14 Pro Max using a fully up to date device running iOS 18.3.1 . > > Has anyone else experienced this? I am hoping that the group might be able to offer insight into whether this is a bug worth reporting to Apple, or an attack of some sort? I am aware that at least one zero-click messaging bug was recently patched in iOS. I rebooted my device, and I'm waiting for the security delay to expire so I can reset my iCloud password. I have 2FA and stolen device protection switched on. > > (please disregard link to example.com ; my Lemmy client wouldn't allow a text-only post without an image or a link).
Accurate. Are you a summarization bot?
Perhaps it's time to bring back the amenity that Singapore Airlines devised to handle this situation on their ultra-long-haul flights in the Airbus 340-500 -- the corpse cupboard: https://simpleflying.com/singapore-airlines-airbus-a340-500-corpse-cupboards-history/
Thank you for saving me a click. Undersea data center operation and seawater cooling is not new; Microsoft has been pursuing such efforts for a decade or so now, under the auspices of Project Natick: https://natick.research.microsoft.com/
Oh, heck no. Recall was bad enough.
The site appears to be down.
Perhaps a second wave will be incoming, per this post about a coming Reddit paywall for some content: https://sh.itjust.works/post/32792815
Kagi user chiming in here. Have been incredibly happy with the service in terms of search quality and overall usefulness since subscribing. Feels like Google in the early, early days (I was there) before they lost their soul. Their changelog page is instructive; -- https://kagi.com/changelog
Downvoted since the article is paywalled by Medium.
There is also a reputed new cat-to/from-human transmission vector for H5N1, which was briefly noted in a CDC report last week before being redacted: https://www.nytimes.com/2025/02/06/health/cdc-bird-flu-cats-people.html . NYT article may be paywalled, but details can be found in other media sources as well.
Is that correlated with students getting out of school for the summer and joining, or a different event? I have noticed a lower quality of conversation in a number of communities recently.
Eternal September
Eternal September or the September that never ended was a cultural phenomenon during a period beginning around late 1993 and early 1994, when Internet Service Providers began offering Usenet access to many new users.
Thank you!
Hi HellsBelle,
Firstly, sorry for my overly snarky response. I know that the "don't change the headline" rule was strictly enforced in many subreddits, but I wasn't aware that this applied here as well. Is this a rule for this particular community or the entire Lemmy instance it's on? Would you be kind enough to share a pointer to the rule list?
You don't have to repeat the clickbait headline. Write your own!
Ah, very likely. I'm a literalist at heart, which is often at odds with posts of this nature. Thank you.
The screenshot shown references nothing about a payment plan or a 69% APR. What am I missing?
Downvoting for clickbait. What's the word?
Thank you, Slatlun. It's a pet peeve of mine. I read somewhere that not rewriting article headlines is a holdover from some subreddits who prohibited the practice.
