When changing biometric data on the iPhone, it locks you out of using it in other apps, making you put in your bank/other specific password.

Both of those require their own password or biometrics, so you couldn’t access those either.

In order to turn off the Find My iPhone functionality, you need the Apple ID password, so this isn’t even a real concern. You can even remotely lock the phone with a new password. Apple has made stealing an iPhone and making it work afterwards very hard.

It’s quicker to load a known json into a know UI than an entire webpage. Plus, you don’t get any features in the webpage like swiping, double tapping, or notifications (for things like DMs).

I use a Lemmy app because it’s faster and just works. It hasn’t asked for any extra permissions.

When they introduced the app back in December 2016, they gave you a free burger/fish filet. Me and my college roommate took advantage of this and made accounts with sharklasers.com emails. We got 3 free burgers a day just by driving to the closest McDonald’s, down the road 10 mins to the next one, then back.

Yeah I have an even smaller USB-C one. It sticks out less than 0.5cm from the port.

If it’s made in flutter, doesn’t that mean you easily publish it to the iOS App Store? Isn’t the main point of flutter to publish to both iOS and Android?

Come on. That’s not even close to the amount of data that TikTok collects. TikTok needs to know how long you spend on EVERY video so it can recommend more like that. TikTok records EVERY interaction and time associated.

How the heck slack better or even have any more features than discord? Discord saves all history. Discord has threads that are easier to find than slack threads. Discord voice channels let you just hop in. Discord lets you direct reply.

I use slack for work, but Discord is great for what it is. The search is amazing.

Yea, that’s not how the older Model 3 works. I wish they weren’t doing that. The blinker and shifter stalk are so easy.

With the Tesla Model 3, most things you need are on the steering wheel anyways. Volume, cruise, skip, follow distance, answer calls, etc. but there is a big infotainment system for everything else. I don’t mind it because I love the customization of where my buttons are rather than the crappy default of however the manufacturer sets up the buttons.

I liked when they wrote a letter to the federal government telling them to fuck off with their backdoor request.

For single player games, or multiplayer games where there’s not a bigger progression system, yes, I 100% agree.

But sometimes this is necessary, like with an MMO. You’re paying for access to unlimited server time for that period (typically month or year).

It’s because Apple provides a very easy to integrate with SDK. A lot of apps I use have the same native UI, like YouTube and Plex, because of this.

I’m pretty sure this against FCC regulations.

Huh? Use the remote app on your phone. It automatically pops up like a notification when there’s a text box on the screen. So easy. You can turn the box off by holding the power button for a few seconds. To close apps, you double tap the TV button and then it’s an iOS like interface that you scroll over and swipe up on the ones you want to close.

The UI is very minimal and the same across most all apps, so it’s easy to learn and use. It may be missing some power features, but most things are accessed via clicking of just holding.

I’m not sure how many it has, but is only for 4 hours. If you have charging at home, it’s too much hassle to charge at work and fight the crowd. It’s for people that need it. And charging for 4 hours on 240v 40a will be 48kWh, which is 144 miles. You only need that every few days. But it is a huge parking garage in the city. It can definitely handle 200 EVs charging if they wire it up right.

I’ve only had an EV for 2.5 years. It just works. It’s good and reliable. It’s not “let’s wait”time anymore. I’ve driven to the country in Canada and camped in the heat with my AC and made it back to a charging station. They’re everywhere now. It’s not 2015 anymore.

The price does need to come down still though.

True. But the coolant is for the battery, not for a combustion engine that is constantly hot, so it’s hardly ever changed. I use 120v at my apartment to charge. It gets me about 5 miles per hour. Because I live in a city, I’m not driving all the time, it works for me. I see people using extension cord across the sidewalk on my way to work. Our city, Seattle, is building charging infrastructure. Most work garages have chargers, so it’s still charging at work.

There are still less moving parts than an ICE though, meaning there is less to go wrong. An electric motor isn’t running from friction like many parts of an ICE.

An EV isn’t for everyone, but it will work for most people once the price comes down.

You have less moving parts so there’s also no replacing fuses, coolant, belts, etc. and then you also don’t have to go to the gas station every week. It’s just simply charging at your home.

Yep. I’ve had my few issues, but there has been way less maintenance.
