Primary lithium batteries absolutely do leak, given enough time. Often the victim is an old Mac motherboard, search for "mac pram battery ruined motherboard" on an image search engine of your choice.

FireWire hard drives still work fine though. (FireWire 800 to Thunderbolt adapter, connected to a Thunderbolt to TB3 adapter). Why support the adapter and hard drives, but not audio devices? (What else used FireWire besides mass storage, au

I have an AirTag in wallet. Every month or so it will chirp for no obvious reason. My phone might be with me, or upstairs, or whatever. It's just random.

I wonder a 3rd party tracker (using Find My network) could fool the iPhone somehow. Maybe if it does 1 minute on, 1 minute off, or something like that?

archive.is has some weird incompatibility with the 1.1.1.1 DNS resolver. Temporarily use some other one, and it will load fine.

Oh, ok. So next time I get one of those full page ads that darkens the entire page - I should just concentrate really hard at reading the barely visible content. Maybe it will go away if I scroll really really fast.
