You randomly get a hold of your colleague's phone. It's unlocked. You don't mind being fired. What sounds do you set as his notification and ring tones? (self.asklemmy)

I was thinking of something like the Duff Man theme and slapping sounds and moans, but I feel that Lemmy knows better.

(Obviously, I would start texting and calling him during the next meeting)

Does basically every human with a cellphone have their phone on vibrate at all times?

When I bought a newer phone a few years ago, I was really disappointed with how weak the vibrate was. It's a flagship phone and I have the vibration intensity set to maximum, but I still often don't realize that my phone is vibrating in my pocket... especially at work. Never had that happen in a phone before. Idk if newer phones just ship with weaker vibration motors nowadays or if it's just this particular phone line.

That being said, I actually like my ringtone and notification sounds. I turn them on while at home but leave it on vibrate at work.

Pixel device?

Nope. I don't keep my phone in my pocket all the time and don't want a smart watch at all to randomly vibrate against me.

I have my phone on vibrate, don’t keep it on me all the time and don’t have a smartwatch
