This is accurate. More often than not, trying to do something good for others will end up making you feel like an idiot. For the person on the receiving end, you are a jackpot. Instead of being shown gratitude, you're likely to be expl

You could say it is cutting off the most accurate and cost efficient method for Facebook to track iOS users. A dozen other tracking methods still exist but they might be slightly worse in terms of cost/accuracy. Definitely something to

The US gov puts massive pressure on Apple and Google to insert backdoors into their phones even though third parties have forever been able to crack them. It's all about cost. The first party tracking enablement was given to Facebook f

I highly doubt this blocking by Apple will have much of an impact on Facebook's tracking ability. For one, any time you use the internet via mobile data, Facebook (or any other site) will get your phone number, name and other personal

The article assumes you will not be paying the import duty charged in India i.e. you're bringing an open box/you own the iPhone you bring from Dubai. If you were to start a business bringing in phones in bulk you would have to pay

I have enabled ESNI + DoH but most websites do not seem to support ESNI yet. VPN looks like the only option until then.

Great work man! Installed the app and ran the tests. If there is any way we can see the results do share. From what I can see, there is no way to bypass the SNI filters without using a proxy/VPN of some sort. Do let me know you have an

I'm not trying to say keto isn't helpful. If it works for you that's great, go for it. It may even be better than other diets in certain scenarios as you have mentioned. However prescribing it as the default solution isn&#x27

This is a popular myth. There is simply no evidence to back to this claim. On the other hand there is a lot of evidence that preserving/increasing lean mass (non fat mass) depends only on protein and not fats/carbs. Check this art

Agreed that satiation is a major aspect. How satiating a food is, is not simply about carbs/proteins/fats. Most carb rich foods people eat today are high in sugar and low in fiber. That causes people to overeat. You can also overe

Weight loss comes from having a calorie deficit, not from keto. You can gain weight on keto if you eat more calories. You can achieve the same weight loss by just eating fewer total calories, without cutting carbs as well.

I had the same mindset initially. The CAA in itself is benign. Simply reading the Act will not give you the perspective on how it is going to be implemented. The statements given by the Home Minister of India - who is also a senior member o
