At least when Jobs was being a tyrant there was proper innovation. Really try and remember the shit they put out at his prime. Shit was timeless. And all still had acceptable pricing relatively speaking.

With Apple it’s all or nothing. When you’re in the ecosystem everything works and works well. When it’s one device that needs to be its own ecosystem. That’s just the way they’re designed. Some aren’t happy about it. Some are. There was clearly a market gap for users wanting this kind of simplicity.

A home solution for file transfers between Apple and non Apple for me is a local nas.

It definitely feels like a lost cause banning guns. It’s part of the culture. When we banned guns in Australia after one single mass shooting, I don’t believe Australia had nearly as much of a gun loving culture. It was still seen as a tool in the country side for hunting and such. I don’t know the answer to changing culture. It’ll take generations possibly. Smoking was seen like an everyday thing in the 60s. Now it’s disgusting. Perception can change eventually.

I would understand if they wore it on their chin outside or not near people and put it back up when inside or close or talking to people. Still good practice to do so if you’re sick and contagious. And fine to take a rest from wearing it outside.

That’s what I was wondering. Do they know something? I would’ve assumed ps5 have enough tech to get to 2026

I’m thinking about the movie going decision and why “scary” movies make money regardless of quality. They might not be good movies. But advertised scary movie means “hey let’s all go see it” to experience the scares together for fun. Whereas this decision to see something they don’t know for the thrill wouldn’t happen as much or at all with other genres.

On your comment I also do think some filmmakers might miss the point on what makes good scary like what you talked about.

I’m not a horror/thriller fan. I do see why it’s an easy churn and burn genre though. Lot of these don’t have to be good to make a profit. Cheap to make and it’s a good group experience. Just have to give audience a good cinema experience to justify ticket purchase.

That way I can hear my neighbours turn his on so I can join too.

First time using it you export your password data and move it into BW. Then browser extension can help auto fill and detect new ones. It also has a password generator built in so that’s handy

Phone app can integrate and auto fill. On iPhone I’m not sure it if can detect and save. But the few times I’ve needed to sign up on phone I manually input.

I still use Firefox password and iCloud saves when prompted. Doesn’t hurt to have a backup I suppose.

+1 for Bitwarden. There were growing pains at the start to move off of iCloud Keychain. Once done and being more proactive with managing passwords it’s so good and trustworthy

every non work trip I’ve considered doing the same. Then the very last minute I still end up taking my laptop “in case of work emergencies”. I should spend some time in desktop mode and really get it all set up to build confidence
