Save space on your iPhone! Go to Settings > Apps > Messages > Keep Messages and make sure it is set to Forever so you don't lose texts. Turn on Airplane Mode and manually turn off Wi-Fi and Bluetooth. Go to Settings > General > Date & Time, turn off Set Automatically, and shift the calendar date exactly 1 year into the future. Lock your phone and wait 60 seconds. Go back to your date settings and move it to 3 months into the future from today's actual date. Wait another 60 seconds. (I waited more) Finally, turn Set Automatically back on and turn off Airplane Mode. Check your storage settings again to see if the system dumped the logs. It worked for me, did it work for you?

Good morning! Most tourists know Thai elephant pants, but many people do not know that some Thai provinces now have their own special print pants. They are inspired by local culture — cats from Korat, monkeys from Lop Buri, dinosaurs from Khon Kaen, dugongs from Trang, sharks from Chon Buri, and mackerel from Mae Klong. It is a fun souvenir idea if you want something more unique than the usual elephant pants. You can use the links or search in Thai: กางเกงลายจังหวัด, กางเกงไก่ชนพิษณุโลก, กางเกงมะม่วงแปดริ้ว, กางเกงทุเรียนหลงลับแล s.lazada.co.th/s.ZiVO4r?c=d&… s.lazada.co.th/s.ZiVH0v?c=d&…

69 years ago today, Laika became the first living creature to orbit Earth. Launched November 3, 1957 aboard Sputnik 2. Laika, ′′Little Barker"" but her real name was Kudrjavka, Russian for ′′curly."" She was captured on the street, in Moscow. Half Husky and half Terrier, she was around 3 years old at the time. She was chosen because she was calm, docile and perfectly adaptable to the Sputnik 2 capsule. Equipped for life support (food and water), the mission didn't involve return. For Laika, it was a death sentence. The interior of the satellite was lined and the interior space was wide enough to allow Laika to lie or stand. The internal temperature was set to 15. and a refrigeration system had to protect the animal from excessive thermal surges. On November 3rd at 2 AM, Sputnik 2 was launched into space. Laika probably survived for seven hours. But some sources claim that agony was much longer: four days. Alone, in space. The satellite returned to atmosphere 5 months later, April 14, 1958, after turning 2.570 laps around Earth. It disintegrated upon return to the atmosphere. Every year, before Fall, I feel compelled to tell this story and possibly do it with new words. There's a deep guilt that all of us should feel reading what we did to Laika. Human progress has often been achieved at the expense of animals that had nothing to do with our desire for supremacy. Many people believe this was an acceptable price for our conquests, but it seems obvious, even reading this story, that was really just a trivial form of prevarication. We had a duty to choose another path. We still have that duty today. Sorry humanity has failed you, Laika 📷
