IfI have an audio file I have brought into an Audacity project, and I have selected various areas where I have generated silence, can I at at later time restore the audio that was silenced in a specific section? Not in the exported file, of course, but in the project.
2 steps from this guide helped me: What does Notifications Silenced in Messages Mean and How to Disable it? My husband complained to me that I am ignoring his messages while I am in my office. The notification silenced message was appearing to him, first I was totally unaware about this feature. Later when I researched, I found out that a schedule Do not disturb mode was activating between 1pm to 4pm automatically so I disabled it which was by mistake activated and force restarted my phone( i don't know if this step is necessary but I did it ) and thats how I tackled this issue.
That just means she has upgraded her iOS and has used the Focus settings on her device. Most people don't even know why or how this setting is on. Apple made a complicated "Do Not Disturb" setting with "Focus" setting. Not even the apple support knows how to turn it off.
This is not personal. it is a setting in the phone to give us breaks from all messages and electronics. Mine turns on and off at the same time every day. It is a form of self care and applied to all notifications.
However, if a user does not have a Focus enabled that should result in this notification being displayed, yet the notification still appears, we recommend that they update to iOS 15.2. Steps for updating can be found here: Update your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch.
Have you upgraded to the iOS 15.1.1 recently? If you have you need to check all your devices that use your Apple ID and make sure the dumb "Focus" settings are disabled. More importantly check to make sure the "Share Across Device" is off. If any of your devices have the "Share Across Device" on, all devices with the same Apple ID will have the notifications silenced.
FYI, all my focus settings are set to off, Do not disturb, personal, work, driving has been deleted along with sleep. Each individual contact is set to allow notifications. Messaging in settings is set to allow notifications.
His phone shows my "set to silence notifications" message with all our settings 100% set the same. Toggling on/off. Signing in and out of iCloud and rebooting etc. changes nothing. Some said the issue was fixed in other threads only to to return and say it was back.
Also in the OP it shows Vinneta208 in SMS mode so he would not likely see that message as it isn't in iMessage mode. But I do not know this for fact it doesn't show in SMS mode. (Need to get beside my buddy with his iPhone 13 and check it). It does show up in the screen grab up but Molly iMessaged him. He never commented again.
I signed up to testify at the Jan. 10 meeting of the Colorado Parks and Wildlife (CPW) commissioners because I felt strongly CPW mishandled the release of wolves into Grand County. I wasn't there to argue against releasing wolves. I was there to call out what I saw as basic unfairness by CPW: they turned a simple legal requirement into a press event for the governor and his husband, giving both ringside seats, while not bothering to tell local elected officials a word about it.
Actually, it would be more accurate to say I tried to testify, because when I got to the part of my testimony where I mentioned ringside seats, Mr. Dallas May got agitated. After a little back and forth, after my repeatedly asking what rule I'd broken, Mr. May cut my mic and silenced me. When I tried to electronically "raise my hand," someone kicked me out of the meeting.
I was as close as one could be to hopping mad without actually hopping; I had trouble simply standing still. There are no two sides here. Go and listen to the recorded meeting. I was critical, but I was civil. I did not raise my voice. I was not profane. This was a flagrant and obvious violation of both the First Amendment and Colorado Open Meetings Law. This was the government silencing someone who was critical of their actions.
Over the next several weeks, I tried every avenue I could think of to get someone at the state to either tell me what rule I'd broken or to acknowledge and then fix this mistake. To my surprise, getting someone to listen, let alone act, proved difficult. Repeated emails to CPW and the Department of Natural Resources went unreturned. My state senator, Byron Pelton, connected me to DNR's legislative liaison, who answered my questions by, it seems, copying and pasting from CPW's website. Repeated calls to the attorney general's office resulted (after weeks of waiting and phone tag), in an underling sending me a couple of internet links and wishing me well.
The media, our supposed watchdogs, were not much better. Outside of an op-ed by my friend Rachel Gabel and a glancing mention by CBS's Shaun Boyd on a Sunday morning politics show, no one there seemed all that interested.
Now, the media is the media. Their lack of response here was disappointing. It doesn't at all match their rhetoric, but as private companies, they can do as they see fit. Our government's another matter. I found their lack of action to be utterly and completely unacceptable.
Action only came with a lawsuit prepared by the Public Trust Institute. That, and seemingly that alone, got the government's attention. So quick was the response, in fact, that the suit never needed to be filed. A copy sent to the AG's office brought a quick settlement offer.
I took that offer. Neither court nor settlement would have brought money, I wasn't seeking any: this isn't the worst insult I've ever had in my life, and I never wanted money. I wanted someone to acknowledge my rights were violated, the law was broken and that I wanted to prevent this from happening to other Coloradans. Whether we agree or disagree on any particular issue, it is your right to speak up to your government. The state needs to have much more care with these rights than it displayed in my case.
Sometimes those threats happen closer to home, and I hope the next time something like this happens, it doesn't take the threat of a lawsuit to get one of our government employees or public servants to act.

Nelson PhamMy native language is a source of pride for me. It has given me a voice and has been instrumental in shaping my identity. The message conveyed by the English-only sign represents a form of linguistic imperialism, where English is elevated as the superior language and, by extension, the culture it represents. The presence of such signs serves as a constant reminder of the systemic racism that treats people from diverse cultural backgrounds and people of color as second-class citizens. Even within the supposedly safe confines of academia, we are not immune to these oppressive practices. The notion of forcing individuals to abandon their native language and assimilate into a homogenized, white-centric culture is not only barbaric but also a gross violation of personal freedom and dignity.
Reflecting on this experience, I am reminded of the words of Minnijean Brown Trickey, one of the courageous Little Rock Nine. During an address at the Harvard Graduate School of Education on Feb. 8, 2018, Ms. Trickey shared her insights on the ongoing struggles of public schools and the pivotal role of educators in driving positive change. One line resonated deeply with me: "When you deny a voice, you deny humanity."
Language is a potent tool in the fight against oppression, which is precisely why practices rooted in white supremacy exert considerable effort to restrict linguistic autonomy. Individuals are denied equitable access to education and coerced into relinquishing their native tongues. The excuses concocted to justify these actions are merely smokescreens for an underlying agenda of deliberate racial discrimination. Policies and practices rooted in such bigotry continue to suppress individuals from diverse cultural backgrounds.
In the realm of higher education, the system's implicit message is clear: conform to the oppressive culture and align with the ideals of the white majority. This expectation harms students of color and those from varied cultural heritages. Educational institutions often look the other way or fail to take proactive measures to dismantle this system. Students who enter these establishments are conditioned to believe that the policies and practices in place are designed with their best interests in mind when, in reality, they primarily serve financial motives.
Students like me, who are already compelled to communicate in English in virtually all facets of daily life, find this expectation particularly burdensome. Whether drafting a memo, completing an assignment, participating in class discussions, or navigating public spaces, we are constantly pressured to assimilate into the prevailing narrative that the English language is inherently superior. Unfortunately, the college or university environment, which should be a defender of free expression, often only extends this privilege to white and English-speaking students.
