Another vote for Microsoft To-Do here. It’s powerful but manageable, and the sharing works very reliably and quickly.

It’s grifters all the way down.

And what shall be the threshold for criminalizing simply being a sick fuck?

And when that happens, it’s not that features like fiber to the home or port forwarding are gone, but they could be locked behind an extra fee. Want direct access to your own network settings? That might come at a premium. Even access to certain websites could become conditional on paying more, or worse, dictated by someone else’s agenda.

They can do that right now. If this new wireless option is standardized, it would seem less prone to ISP shenanigans to me. Just a question whatever functionality makes it into the standard in the first place.

Might just be to indicate when it started happening. They could have written “M1” and still cause the same confusion, and I believed that’s what the model is called.

Is anything wrong with using Quick Share to get files to a computer, or vice versa?

The nice thing about hiking your prices by 50% is that unless a whole third of your users quit, you haven’t lost anything.

It’s certainly progressing. I was shopping for bunk beds recently and one listing was missing a measurement in the diagram. So I put a red line in and asked ChatGPT for the dimension, just giving it the photo and asking how long the red line is. Not only did it take the existing measurements from the photo and applied the necessary trigonometry to calculate what I wanted, it also correctly identified it as a bunk bed, and that there is a slide attached to it - I was looking for how far the slide will stick out into the room.

Like others have pointed out, smartphone photography has improved leaps and bounds and continues to evolve. Bigger lenses enable this.

My main complaint is the off-center design, and lack of options (like a thick variant with a huge battery).

The whole concept is different. I’ve just started trying it and the gist of it is that it’s basically only the app drawer, but on steroids. There is no home screen to arrange, you simply set favorite apps that show up first. Anything else you select by scrolling through the alphabet, which seems quick enough if you know the app name you’re looking for.

I can already tell that I would love it more if favorites were redesigned a bit to use the initial space better. But this would betray the simplicity they are trying to achieve.

I didn’t know there were that many tech reviewers.

Until we figure out how that is possible outside of theory, it is just that. We have no plans that address actually keeping a spaceship working on such a timescale, and keeping the crew alive on top of it.

Considering we haven’t seen any generational alien ships visit, it seems like nobody else has figured it out yet, either.

I truly despise how simplified things have gotten. Interacting and modifying YouTube playlists is such a chore now.

As much as you can afford. When it comes to technology you can’t go for the budget options without truly feeling the consequences.

That was true when the modern smartphone was a new concept. Since then, cheap models (a little above the bare minimum) have steadily become better and these days, aside from photography, will do anything the more expensive ones can. Which have also gotten much more expensive than they used to be. Unless you need specialty features like folding or S-Pen, it’s not worth it.

That PC is on Ubuntu LTS so it didn’t come to mind. The app I’ve been using is called Unified Remote and was generally pretty neat, not so much about tying my phone to the PC.

I use an app to control the mouse and keyboard of my home theater PC from my smartphone. Will that ever be able to work?

For some time, air pods would have been a top 20 company on their own or something like that.
