I completely agree that Apple should have told people up-front. As for the new phones being throttled... why wouldn’t they be? I might be wrong, but I don’t recall Apple saying they would stop throttling by default, just that they would give you the option to turn it off - and they did. If you click the “Learn More”…

Perhaps I’m wrong, but I see it more like the police getting a warrant to force your real estate agent to unlock your house long after you buy it. Why does the agent still have a key? I agree with people helping the police as long as all documentation is in place, but I also don’t think that Apple or any company…

It sounds like this specific tool is more for downloading personally identifiable information that Apple keeps on you, like location and browsing habits. I’m not sure if this is exactly what you’re looking for, but you can move your Photos library from your Pictures folder to an external drive. Once it has plenty of…

[Deleted because I really don’t care and I’m too dumb to figure out how to actually delete this.]

On the iPhone 8 and X, hold the power button and one of the volume buttons for about 3 seconds. Clicking the power button 5 times (on any model, I believe) will also do it, but it will initiate an SOS call as well if you have that feature enabled.

I’m sure firing a giant laser at the ice fields should help tremendously! (I kid.)

Agreed! Came here to see if Jake had already been posted. I forgot about the Incredible Journey.

LMAO! I’ve never heard us referred to as “frostbacks” but that’s actually amazing. I’m going to have to use that.

The ocean is scarier for me. Being dead doesn’t scare me as much as dying, and the ocean can kill you in lots of terrible ways like being eaten, partially or wholly, poisoning - often from the incredibly painful stings of some horrible jelly or stepping on a sea urchin - drowning, treading water and then drowning,…

I’d submit Mistake Not My Current State Of Joshing Gentle Peevishness For The Awesome And Terrible Majesty Of The Towering Seas Of Ire That Are Themselves The Mere Milquetoast Shallows Fringing My Vast Oceans Of Wrath in honour of Iain M. Banks if I lived in the EU.

Assuming this happened, I think your initial reaction was correct. If you double-press the home button - something I’ve done by accident more than a few times - Continuity will have a button at the bottom of the screen for whatever is currently happening on the connected computer. It seems reasonable to me since she…

I mean, it’s definitely more difficult than it could be. I would never argue that it’s easy, but I also don’t think it’s hard. Perhaps other people have cause to change their subscriptions a lot more often than I do, but I doubt I would ever use that menu more than once per year. For myself, I don’t know that I care…

I was also a bit annoyed by that, although I think they were near a planet during that bombing run. If so, then perhaps gravity was still strong enough to cause them to fall so long as the ship was between the bomber and the planet.

I had those same questions, and a researcher brings them up as well near the end of the article. Apparently they didn’t account for those things, so the researcher feels a number of controls were missing from the experiment to prove that it was counting as opposed to maximizing white area like you suggested.

This needs way more stars LOL.

I thought the First Amendment in the US only meant that the government and its representatives couldn’t censor the media or individuals, among other things? I could be wrong, but I don’t think it applies to private organizations like YouTube, does it? Now, if companies like YouTube actually are censoring people,…

As a nurse, why are you telling people to drink 8 glasses of water a day? Perhaps I haven’t done enough research, but I’ve never been able to find anything to substantiate that. Coming from a nurse, with a specific amount attached, it sounds like medical advice despite there seeming to be no basis for it.

Horrifying? I think they’re super cool! No, I don’t want them to actually be used for anything. But they could just build a bunch of them and give them all to me. I’d use them for logging. And to enforce my will upon an unsuspecting popul——- I mean keep the peace. I’d keep the peace against all my neighbours.

Vertical video is awful, but so is this case I guess.

I thought to myself “Really? I’ve never had this issue with the calculator app,” only to open it up and realize it’s because I don’t use the Apple calculator, but I put it in the same spot on my home screen that the Apple one defaults to. I quite like Calculator Infinity if anyone needs a good calculator app. I did…
