You have to be very precise with your finger drags because it loves snapping back to the original position. Gbroard doesn’t suffer from this. Part of the reason is it doesn’t do the “free-floating” cursor thing - which I’ve never understood the point of anyway. It’s fancy but useless in 99% of cases on a phone.


This one has always confused me as well. Tapping the screen, as the other commenter suggested, dismisses the whole thing too, so I have to fish for the stop button in the notifications every time.

Maybe there’s “the Apple way” that we’ve yet to discover.


The Apple way is to have an Apple watch and deal with the alarm there


The problem is there is only one little button on the screen that actually stops the alarm. Everything else you can tap or do to the phone while the alarm is sounding will "snooze" it. It's infuriating.


Surely that’s by design? If stopping the alarm was “easy”, a half-awake person could accidentally stop it rather than snooze it.


No, that’s a common cope.

Not AI. Not bots. Not Indians or Pakistanis. Not Kremlin or Hasbara agents. All the above might comprise a small percentage of it, but the vast majority of the rage bait and rage bait support we’ve seen over the past year+ on the Internet (including here) is just westerners being (allowed and encouraged by each other to be) racist toward non-whites in various ways.


How's your day been?


What's the alternative? At least they don't comply with takedown requests, which can't be said about archive.org who remove everything even semi-controversial.


That's modern social media for you. Turn everything into ragebait.


I couldn't access it in private or regular.


Aww man you got me curious for a sec there.


I’ll roll it out


> it does NOT apply to current visa holders

How about transfers?

Transfers technically count as new visas and need to be petitioned. Will every new employer have to shell out 100K? If that's the case, H-1B holders are now actually indentured servants (they were not previously, no matter how many Redditors claim otherwise) because they are now stuck with the current employer with essentially no ability to transfer or find a new employer in case of a layoff.


Elon Musk would love this. Even harder for his workers to leave.


I’m unsure what he’s trying to say either. The gibberish and out-of-context replies ITT are making me think HN, like many other sites, is laden with bots now.


Just take finasteride. As a nice side effect, you won’t go bald.
