Shit, even Apple lets you reprogram the Action Button, insofar as you can program anything on iOS (which isn’t nothing, Shortcuts scripting can be pretty detailed).

Apple did. Some of the M4 iPads were bricked by the initial iPadOS 18 rollout back in September.

I’ve been listing to the audiobook for American Prometheus: The Triumph and Tragedy of J. Robert Oppenheimer and the number of times they say “CP” as an abbreviation for “Communist Party” is too damn high.

Also last time I went to the amusement park Cedar Point they’ve got “CP” as an abbreviation on all sorts of stuff.

Made me chuckle, but I do think it’s perhaps time to move to the abbreviation CSAM since it’s less likely to get used for other purposes.

Note that Google’s anti-stalking measures may reduce the effectiveness of following tracked stolen items on a map since enterprising thieves can soon quickly discover hidden trackers, no matter which phone they use.

They can’t get the tag off my bike without specific tools, so if they’re warned that the bike they stole is tracking them and it leads to them abandoning the bike somewhere, all the better for me.

Not necessarily, it could mean they’re storing the old salted hashes.

I’m pretty sure this is a setting in Windows group policy, I assume Microsoft does it correctly.
