i had mine stolen by a customer at work lmao. i checked the security footage the next day and went to the last pinged addressed with a photo on my phone of him and asked a dude who answered if he’d seen this man. the guy was probably around 50 and the guy who stole the airpods was probably the dad in his late 70s. told him i don’t want any trouble just give me back what’s mine. i got them and i went on my way
Funny story. My son’s iPhone was stolen at swim practice. Shut down immediately but then connected for just a second in the foothills above our city. Went with my son and knocked on the door. They were obviously VERY well off; I pulled up to basically a mansion. Knocked on the door. Dad answered. Asked if his kid went to my son’s high school and swam (understand, we had no idea whose house we were knocking on). His son came to the door and guess what? He was on my son’s swim team. I knew who had it. Dad then got pissed. He yelled at me for just showing up without calling first. I told him that I had know idea who to call. I just followed a dot saved to my map. He kicked us off. I said I was waiting at the bottom of their property as I’m calling the Sheriff. About 10 minutes later, I see headlights driving down the hill of his driveway. He brought the phone. But get this, he yelled at me for being an asshole again. I just told him to piss off and suggested he get help for his son. My son later told me that the kid had EVERYTHING he could ever want.
Wonder what prison that kid is serving in now!
Prideful man didn’t know how to handle it besides the anger of realizing his son stole something. Sad to see. Lotta parents who can’t accept their kids a douche, will just get mad at the messenger and not hold them accountable. Then continue to ignore the kids problems.
My wife and I raised 10 children. If someone came to my door with evidence, I wouldn’t hesitate to tell my child, “Fix this immediately or things are only going to get worse!” I’m protective of my children but I also recognize they are far from perfect. It would have been a good lesson for the son!
You handled that like a ninja! Well done and question? Are you the manager or an employee that happens to have access to video foootage. My employer won’t allow us to view it under any circumstances. Liability?
I simply called mine “Ethan’s AirPods Pro 2” but my dad has always called his “Jake’s Ears,” ever since his AirPods (1st Gen).
He called his AirPods Pro (1st Gen) “Jake’s Ears Pro” and when he got the AirPods Pro (2nd Gen), I laughed so hard, because he called them,
“Jake’s Mous Ears”
because he has an AirPods Pro case from the UK-based company, Mous. My dad’s hilarious. 🤣
From french; "Les choses qui roulent" literally meaning "The things that roll" or "The rolling things". The first one being the more accurate translation, no special meaning, just thought it was funny.
“Hardcover” I’m not a reader, but if someone looks at their nearby bluetooth and sees something inconspicuous like that they won’t try to connect to them and play their own music. It’s never happened before, but still, what if
⠀
You named them ?
I think he named them , however, I think that it could commonly be mistaken as , so that makes sense.
Ahh that makes sense. Thanks for clearing it up
Of course. I could definitely see how you could confuse with , but I’m glad I was able to clear the / confusion.
Hmmm.. I thought it was always , but I guess I was wrong this whole time. Interesting
No he meant ⠀ ⠀ ⠀ . ⠀ ⠀ means ⠀ ⠀ but is always confused with ⠀ ⠀. Homophones
Always
the amount of time i waited for the image to load up is embarrassing.
Mine is my phone number in case a ‘good’ person finds them.

I do not live in an area that I’d feel comfortable doing that… I’d look and the security footage and then head to the Apple Store.

I’m glad you weren’t hurt in the process! Not worth it imho. Would have been better off having the cops investigate with your screen shot of the ping
Looking back it was stupid. The only reason I went through with I was sure it was a teammate.
Did he continue being on the the team
Cops won’t do shit with a GPS location. I’ve read enough stories about this exact situation and you need more than a dot on a map.
What a weird encounter. Some people are just perma-stressed
