The author initially resisted getting AirPods due to a fear of losing them. However, they eventually bought a pair and ended up losing them. Using the "Find My" app, they tracked the AirPods to a house in a nearby town but didn't confront the thief. They then visited a museum where the AirPods were located again, but couldn't definitively identify the thief. The author continued to track the AirPods as they moved to different locations, including a Walmart and an outlet mall, but was unable to recover them. The AirPods are currently in Lost mode, and the thief has not contacted the author. Despite the frustration, the author contemplates going to Mexico to search for the stolen AirPods.
- pmarreck 3y agoThanks for the summary, GPT
- sockaddr 3y agoYeah, why was this story on HN?
- bebrws 3y agoI had my phone stolen and basically did the same thing. I didn't want to approach anyone for fear of starting some altercation. Wish there was a better way to go about this. With my phone, if I had another device maybe I could have made it make a sound and then started a conversation with the person that way? I didn't know who exactly had it, although I am pretty sure I saw the person just walk away with it. Wasn't sure enough to make an accusation though.
