I Made This

Did you make something? Do you want the fleeting rush of endorphins that come with affirmation from strangers? Do you think what you made is neat? Share it here!

Paintings, movies, music, drawings, models, gardens, houses, snowmen, sandcastles - if you made it, you can post it.

RULES:

Some things you make are not to be shared. These include:

Do not be a jerk.

- No racism, sexism, homophobia, transphobia, ableism, classism, or bigotry of any kind.

- Don't try to sell stuff unless people ask. You can post your Etsy (or similar) if someone prompts you. No spamming self-promotion.

Dude that thing is sick. I use my phone for music, and it's okay except for the dozen spam calls I get every day interrupting it. And there's no setting for that, of course.

Many phones have "Do not disturb"-mode, or even airplane mode.

You can also go into the settings and disconnect from your mobile provider if you really want peace and quiet.

Android actually automatically rejects spam calls if you tell it to. They've had it for over half a decade now.

I think they mean no setting to continue playing music. Most people want to leave the phone active, no matter how annoying, in case they get something important.

Make a do not disturb option that blocks calls from numbers you don't know. Everyone you care about can still reach you easily.

Everyone that makes it through the spam filter goes straight to voicemail unless they’re a contact. That is way.

And then I never check the messages because anyone important will just text me.

Check out pre-android Sony Walkmans - they are the absolute shiznit.

With that playlist feature that’s never been ported? Somebody posted about it here. Lets you choose a vibe from your local music, offline. Goes by BPM and something.

I think you're referring to Sony's 'SensMe' function. Unfortunately I haven't been able to use it because it relies on their proprietary software which isnt available for my OS. Would be great to have it baked into the device.

Yes, you’re right! Hope somebody develops a similar cross-platform feature someday.

That would be amazing!

For real I wish there was a way to get my phone to play only music through headphones or speaker. Any time I get a notification I want it only through my phone's speaker and not what I'm listening to music to.
