What's your favorite unintentionally awesome game plus music combo? - Lemmy.World
It used to be a given that Pink Floyd’s Dark Side of the Moon followed along
perfectly with the movie The Wizard of Oz. If you started the album after a
specific MGM lion roar, you could play the album on repeat and it would fit
eerily close to certain scenes. For me, this question comes up because I was
playing Spider-Man 2 for PS5 and had Unicorn by GUNSHIP playing. I may have had
it on shuffle but the number of times things lined up was crazy good. “Tastes
Like Venom” as Peter gets the black suit for the first time, “Monster In
Paradise” as he beats the snot out of the Hunters, and “Darkness for Dreams” as
Miles and Martin Li enter Peter’s consciousness are literal perfection. The only
outliers are the parts of the game, like Howard’s mission, where the song is
meant to accompany that section of gameplay. Otherwise, I could play it on
repeat and feel some kind of weird connection between the two separate but
awesome pieces of art. Lemmy, what’s your video gaming equivalent? I don’t just
mean albums that are cool combined with a game. I mean a combo that gels in the
same way as DSotM and Wizard of Oz.

[iOS17] Phone won't ring anymore - "User Busy"

[iOS17] Phone won't ring anymore - "User Busy" - Lemmy.world
Apologies if this isn’t the best place to post this… I’m not able to receive
phone calls anymore after updating to iOS17. My friend told me that they tried
calling me 4 times and got a busy signal every time. I told them that my phone
never rang (which is true) but, when I went to my missed calls, it shows 4
missed calls from them. I asked them to call me again (while I was looking at my
phone) and the notification banner for the call comes in for a split second but
is “greyed out” and says their name and then “User busy” before disappearing.
I’ve restarted my phone, checked to make sure I didn’t accidentally block them,
added them to my Favorites, and even had someone else try to call me and all
result in the same thing. My computer rings via FaceTime when some people call
me but it seems like my phone won’t ring at all and everyone just gets a busy
signal. Any ideas? Anyone else getting this after the update? I’ve searched for
a while now but every reference to “User busy” is old and just says something to
the effect of “restart your phone” or “change your settings to allow
unknown/junk callers”. This isn’t either of those things, though.

Why are there hidden ads in Voyager? - Lemmy.world
I just swiped accidentally from the top of the screen and uncovered an
off-screen ad in Voyager. What is this and is this disclosed anywhere?
