In the USA we are approaching July 4 (Independence Day), which is a major holiday. People tend to string together a few days of vacation and take off a nice chunk of time (I am!). My husband finally comes home this evening, we have Friday off (we work a 9/80 schedule with every other Friday off) and then we will (EDIT: NOT BE go on a 4 day trip in the Sawtooth mountains, due to snowpack, but we will be working on our teardrop trailer)!
How about you all? I know some of you are in Europe, and it’s also vacation season there. What’s shakin’?
I have some fun reverse engineering I wanna look at :D our family recently traded in phones, and before I had to wipe my old iphone, i jailbroke it and found out how to export all the notes, cause I wanted to keep the formatting and all images, so it’s a niche use case. Ive got about 1.8 GB to sift through, and I’ve been able to retrieve the raw note of one already! When i’m done i’m gonna post it to a jailbreak sub, cause afaik this info doesnt exist on the internet yet :) I’m also super excited to see if I can write a rust program to reconstruct everything in one swoop, then open source it for the two random ppl who’ll use it Lol. Been too exhausted from work to have time to work on it, but I’m hoping I can make some progress here and there during the weekend!
That and my girlfriend’s birthday is coming up soon and I have a few things I wanna put together for her :) In fact, some of those notes have some super sweet messages to her I haven’t sent yet, especially before we became official, so I guess technically this weekend is all about her 💕
Oh that’s very cool! I support jailbreaking and controlling your own data. And that’s super sweet for your gf as well, aww :) When did you start dating?
Yupp, it’s funny, I had two legitimate cases to jailbreak, the notes export ofc, and the other reason was this legacy restriction setting from an older iOS that got synced, and is impossible to unset in newer iOS versions (prevented me from accessing discord app for example, since it was a 17+ app). Apple support couldnt help me, and last I checked all the replies were shadow-banned 🤣. Felt great when I could fix both things myself though! (And without any info online on how to do either of them at that!)
As for my gf, we first met online around late 2020/early 2021. We both kinda had a crush on each other since the beginning, but wayyyy too shy to ever do anything. She made the first major moves in talking in DMs around April 2021. She was very conflicted about a long distance relationship however, so sorting through feelings got confusing. But by early 2022, ig we knew it was meant to be. I asked if I could call her mine and it’s been magical ever since :) ✨
Awwww that’s so cute, I love it! Best wishes to you and her!
