    Because average people "care" about Apple far more than their peers.

    Yea, no thanks. if this really does somehow become the only option, I'd imagine the best you could do is just carry a cheap android phone for this sole purpose.

    This is not "slippery sloping". This is analyzing what the proponents of said policies want to achieve, and have achieved in the past. Maybe it's not a conscious decision, but many…

    Correct me if I’m wrong, but wasn’t Nintendo caught using an open source emulator for the switch, without any sort of credit to the authors after suing? If so, I have no empathy fo…

    You could say in a sense, people who care about whether the recipient of a text has imessage do care about UX, I just wish the avg person understands that most if not all of the fe…

    I highly doubt most who claim to be "Power Users" on the internet would be classified as such in the truest sense of the word; they simply enjoy complaining about trends in technol…

    If you don't sync imessage to iCloud, I thought it quite literally only stored on device in that case, besides when it in transit to be delivered. Referencing this official apple a…

    Is there a way to get a mirror of this without the word "normie"? I supposed I can just copy and paste the content and send it to someone lol.

    ITT: we observe the sheer amount of ignorance & naivety that rears its ugly head when stemlords attempt to discuss any sort of social issue / concept. It's crazy how one would inte…

    Interesting. Something that is off putting regarding lastpass is the complete lack of a native client, it strikes me as pure laziness & complacency. Maybe lastpass does in fact run…

    To add to my comment, if one's response is to point out it's difficult to trust the company's opsec, handling of your data etc then use something like bitwarden. If a fully open sr…
