Hey apple when you are watching a reel on Instagram and you get a phone call, the Insta reel audio continues playing on top of the phone call audio, why don't you fix something as basic as that or give the iPhone a real fuckin file system or make it easier to interact with non Apple devices instead of stupid gimmicks like this. I'm not holding my breath though, just switching back to Android once this one dies

Liquid ass is the Chocolate Rain of 2025.

We had transparent UI elements before and decided they were shit. Am I the only one still alive to remember?

[–] cepelinas@sopuli.xyz 13 points 2 days ago (1 children)

When did we decide they were shit?

[–] RedstoneValley@sh.itjust.works 2 points 1 day ago (1 children)

Well, they are quite bad from a UI/accessibility perspective. While looking nice and fancy, it can be difficult to read the contents and makes it harder to identify information. That's totally fine as an optional feature for those who like it, but the default should be a clean and easily accessible design.

[–] cepelinas@sopuli.xyz 1 points 1 day ago

The contrast is preserved if when a light theme is applied the text is black (because the background is usually bright) and vice versa but yes there should be an easily accessible option and that was provided by the non transparent aero theme.

[–] lefixxx@lemmy.world 60 points 3 days ago (2 children)

I don't remember vista being bad because of the translucency

[–] merari42@lemmy.world 52 points 3 days ago (2 children)

Na that was actually liked.being buggy, slow and having poor driver support at launch killed it. Windows 7 which was just polished Windows Vista was very popular.

[–] Cornelius_Wangenheim@lemmy.world 13 points 3 days ago (1 children)

Also they changed the permission model and introduced UAC, but it took developers forever to update and stop constantly writing to sensitive OS locations.

[–] Amir@lemmy.ml 10 points 3 days ago

but it took developers forever to update and stop constantly writing to sensitive OS locations.

They still haven't done that in 2025, Windows file locations are by far the worst part of it as an operation system for an average user?

Is it in C:/Users//? How about in the Documents folder? No, AppData/Local maybe? AppData/LocalLow or AppData/Roaming?

Maybe it created a root folder on my hard drive, Intel and NVIDIA love to do that? Did it just dump data in my registry (thanks Adobe)? Maybe it's in the installation location in Program Files, or with the 32-bit updater app in Program Files (x86)?

Who the fuck even knows anymore at this point, just write directly into System32 for all I care

[–] EchoSnail@lemmy.zip 7 points 3 days ago (1 children)

Vista sucked because manufacturers were behind on making computers up to snuff for the requirements.

Windows 11 is like the Windows vista of its time. But fucking worse.

[–] outhouseperilous@lemmy.dbzer0.com 3 points 3 days ago* (last edited 3 days ago)

Closer to ME, in that computers are being tossed.

[–] UltraMagnus0001@lemmy.world 3 points 3 days ago

You could turn tranperency on or off and it still ran like shit. I only remember Nvidia driver would crash for the first week when released and then they fixed it.

[–] outhouseperilous@lemmy.dbzer0.com 46 points 3 days ago (1 children)

I liked them.

Thats why i still use them on kde.

[–] thisbenzingring@lemmy.sdf.org 14 points 3 days ago (1 children)

I had to stop using them because my old laptop just cant keep up anymore 😪

I might have to replace it next year.... good ol gal. She has been the same Arch install for almost 10 years

good laptops are like pets, they only last for a little while but some will be remember for how much joy they gave you

[–] zaphod@sopuli.xyz 50 points 3 days ago

decided they were shit

I don't recall this. I recall our corpo overlords taking away the glass from us without asking.

[–] obinice@lemmy.world 13 points 3 days ago

It was glorious. I used Stardock's Windows Blinds to adjust the transparency to what felt just right and that was chef's kiss

Ahh, what we've lost...

[–] Lyra_Lycan@lemmy.blahaj.zone 9 points 3 days ago* (last edited 3 days ago) (1 children)

It's expensive but I used Stardock on Windows. Specifically the bundle so I can use Fences and WindowFX. You can customise the hell out of Windows with their software, highly recommend. Free options do not come close.

Doesn't fix YouTube UI though.

[–] skulblaka@sh.itjust.works 1 points 3 days ago

I've been using Fences for like 10 years with roll-up containers. Now that I've switched to Linux actually having icons on my desktop again is kind of driving me nuts.

Do you know of an alternative?

[–] dejected_warp_core@lemmy.world 49 points 3 days ago (1 children)

What we want: OS updates that make the system more performant, more accessible, easier to use, smarter at using battery power, and more secure.

Apple: Let's make everything an unreadable mess and tax the GPU to shit just for fucking UI elements, because we're out of ideas.

[–] TheTechnician27@lemmy.world 24 points 3 days ago (2 children)

"Let's nostalgia bait millennials who miss the Aero aesthetic."

[–] cepelinas@sopuli.xyz 5 points 2 days ago

But make it worse.

[–] Zentron@sh.itjust.works 1 points 1 day ago

Vista moments...

[–] ryedaft@sh.itjust.works 56 points 3 days ago (1 children)

I saw a screenshot and it truly is liquid ass.

[–] urheber@discuss.tchncs.de 10 points 3 days ago (2 children)

i think its actually much better than, whatever everyone's doing now... because its translucent.

[–] ryedaft@sh.itjust.works 17 points 3 days ago (1 children)

Here's a nice thread:

https://mastodon.online/@danirabbit/114656110856131583

Notice how "Notification Center" is blurred for no reason?

The control center seems to be using some kind of super ellipsoids for no good reason.

Mmm translucent ass.. Homer Simpson drooling noise

[–] sundray@lemmus.org 24 points 3 days ago (2 children)

Never eat the gas station sushi.

[–] Uri@infosec.pub 5 points 3 days ago (4 children)
[–] sundray@lemmus.org 6 points 3 days ago

You can't rely on a gas station mini-mart keeping up food safety standards, especially where raw fish is concerned. If you eat spoiled sushi you may get the squirts, aka "liquid ass."

[–] Etterra@discuss.online 4 points 3 days ago

You know what, you're right. Go ahead and eat it.

Or, open up a can of man and down that sushi. I have trained my body to handle whatever I put into it. Gas station sushi no longer affects me negatively.

[–] nebulaone@lemmy.world 20 points 3 days ago

taco bell sound plays

[–] Alcan@lemmy.world 15 points 3 days ago (2 children)

No! That is not Liquid Ass!

[–] sundray@lemmus.org 4 points 3 days ago

LIIIQUIIIDDDD! (ass)

[–] outhouseperilous@lemmy.dbzer0.com 3 points 3 days ago (1 children)

You could absolutely make a tinted versions and print with them.

[–] Alcan@lemmy.world 4 points 3 days ago (1 children)

Did you mean solid ass or solidus ass?

[–] realitista@lemm.ee 5 points 3 days ago (1 children)
[–] lagoon8622@sh.itjust.works 2 points 3 days ago

dummy thicc Snake

[–] realitista@lemm.ee 13 points 3 days ago (1 children)

I'll take whatever ass I can get

[–] GooberEar@lemmy.wtf 5 points 3 days ago

Ass, ass, or ass, no one rides for free.

[–] n3cr0@lemmy.world 11 points 3 days ago

Apple comes up too late with innovations made decades ago.

[–] Flashback956@feddit.nl 7 points 3 days ago

Ah yes, was missing the Windows Vista theme. /s

[–] moakley@lemmy.world 5 points 3 days ago

Maybe it's not about poop. Maybe "liquid ass" is what was "poured into them jeans"?

Let's have a little optimism on the internet for once.

Ah. Of, or pertaining to, the experience following consumption of milk-based products for those who are intolerant to lactose.
