Agreed that there are more rough edges on Mac, but even then, I've been using Tahoe for months now and it's been fine. I hear podcasters saying that they're just skipping the entire Tahoe cycle and waiting until this fall&#x2

One possible use case would be for police officers to scan driver licenses when pulling people over. When I worked for a city IT department, they had to have separate barcode readers installed in the cars for that, so I imagine it'd be

I think it could be a combination of: 1. Marketing speak because it sounds better to compare it to the much slower Intel Macs than to the fast M1. Plus the gains between and M1 and M2 are marginal compared to Apple Silicon vs. Intel. 2. Th

iOS 13 drops support for the 6. It'll be 6s/SE and above for iOS 13. It'll be interesting to see what they do for iOS 14. I was surprised that they cut off both the 6 and 5s this year.

That makes sense that DFU would still work, since that would let the data continue to be protected and wiped.

Maybe I missed this in the article, but does anyone know if this feature can be turned off? Or if it's enabled by default? What happens in the scenario of a consumer having an old iOS device sitting around, they forget the passcode, bu

Apple added an Emergency mode in iOS 11 that’s accessible by clicking the sleep/wake button five times. It also disables Touch ID/Face ID and requires the passcode after that. So if you think your phone will be seized, it’s a pret

It's the same here in the U.S, bring your own or buy their plastic reusable ones. The locations I've been too sometimes had spare boxes you could use, but that was pretty rare.

I received a CR-48 as part of the ChromeOS pilot program. It's been nice to use during school for notetaking and general web browsing, but I could never see myself purchasing one on my own. Honestly, the only reason I haven't given it away
