No idea what “Olive Garden” is - is it used all day, or is it just a shitty programmed app that it eats up the battery?
Olive Garden is a restaurant chain. It would be like spending all day on the Arby’s or McDonald’s app with an added layer of Olive Garden being a bit obscure.
WTF are you doing with Olive Garden, Dan?
coffee and breadsticks on my day off shuddup
Is there an iphonedefaulsim community?
It’s called The United States.

haven’t touched a apple product since the Quadra 950.
Of mexico?
Officially it’s the united states of the Gulf of America of Mexico, but we just call it Fucked, for short.
LOL
I’m sorry, I don’t wanna break the funny, so if you’re just here to laugh, the please feel free to do so.
If you are suffering:
Real Phone addiction, which a lot of people nowadays have, takes lifes. It is nothing to joke with. Get a professional if you can. It will erode you physical wellness, your social groups, your grades, your working capacity, you will get severe depression, anxiety, will lack hunger. We all know where that can lead.Fight it, you have ambitions. The phone does not make you happy.
You should put your phone in a cabinet. Ideally in a space where other people can see it during the day. Then loudly announce to them that you’re limiting your screen time in that way.
This is the first step: Admitting it, full stop, nothing to be ashamed of.When you catch yourself doing more than standing awkwardly in front of the cabinet to answer messages from friends and family you should fix that by putting the phone back into the cabinet. If this is too hard, buy a timed phone safe. Make sure to have a way to call the fire department.
That’s the second step: Correcting yourself. Just don’t get frustrated, it’s not you, it’s your addiction.And then when you can leave that shitter in there for as long as you want without thinking of it in a longingly way, then you can finally start living a life without your addiction. It won’t be gone, mind you.
And that’s the final step: Consistency.After a long time of personal development you may even completely make your addiction disappear, but this takes a long time.
Personal development will happen along the way. You will be surprised how much emotion you will have without your phone. You will want to do stuff again.Good luck. BANISH THAT FUCKER.
Matter of fact, I’ll have to put something away.

My phone is a YouTube player apparently. Teams and Outlook for work.
Oops… (Been sitting in meetings a lot today)

The Great Breadstick Debate continues apace.
Will I fall into this obvious trap for discussing the grotesque volume of time spent on the Olive Garden app? No. No i will not. … fuck.
(Cries in Big Mac sauce.)
It must be bugged and busy-looping in the background.
chat am I cooked

(RVX is a custom YouTube apk without ads)
I am good! Instagram is just for looking at tattoos, so I barely use it.

what’s boost?
Lemmy client, used to be a reddit client too
Maybe I should listen to fewer podcasts…

Alt text: Antenna pod using 46% of battery, notably no social media apps are present :P
46% for 42 minutes of background use is pretty wild though.
I’ve also had some high usage from antennapod, not sure if it is still happening. I’ve seen some threads online about but I’m not sure if it was fixed by now.
Upon closer inspection I realize that this is 46% of the drained battery — so 46% of 33%, which is only about 15% of my total battery life. On the whole that is worth it for me, I really like AntennaPod :)
Me too friend. My usage looks very similar. Only SM is Jeroba. Antenna pod is number 1, others are Spotify and Voice (audio books).
Any podcast recommendations?
But it’s 46% of their battery usage. If they’re not using much battery this makes sense. Mine is 32% for 6 hr 11 minutes since my last full charge which is days ago.
Yep, this is it ↑↑↑ thanks!
Facepalm
If you run an android device, or any other computer that doesn’t allow the user to do basic things like close apps. You should make use of the battery optimization settings.
On android every app that you don’t want real time updates from should be set to restricted battery mode, and background data to off.
The only time you need background data is for real time updates or background play in apps like YouTube or Spotify.
This feature will almost certainly get removed in the future if history is any indication, so enjoy having decent battery life and better networking performance while it lasts.
The only time you need background data is for real time updates
And makes total sense here. I need to know the second that never ending pasta bowl starts.
It’s good for some things, messaging, banking, background play, etc. just the less you have the less apps will destroy your battery and your network connection.
Kotor 2 all the way, hell yeah
Uh oh…

There are only 3 possibilities
- Voyager is a battery hog
- You don’t use your phone much
- You, together with your army of alts is single-handedly responsible for half of lemmy content
Voyager is a website in a wrapper. I dunno how it’s suppose to run the battery anymore than Safari does.
Its because it gets reported as the app using the screen and other subsystems during time its in-focus. So really it’s mostly your screen/wifi/etc using power, not the website as such - but the phone categorizes relevant power draw to the active foreground app that’s preventing the phone from sleeping.
