I get it, words matter, but this itself was a reference to the "I understood that reference" meme from Avengers. Thank you for your concern.

It'll be a sad day when this reference is posted and understood for the last time.

Saving a click and a lot of editorializing: * More powerful machines centrally located * COVID-19 practices make lots of people in one place undesirable * It's easy for rogue editors to steal stuff, and this prevents that

I agree with you, but your iPhone forwards SMS messages, but not iMessages, and there's a trust relationship between the devices through Keychain. Still, doing it blindly over BLE is a scary proposition.

Unlike Microsoft of the 90s, there are alternative mobile operating systems that are actually competing with iOS and Apple, so the argument isn't the same. In fact, people point out that iOS doesn't have majority share when you lo

I think the devil is in the details of how iOS and watchOS interact. Instead of sending and receiving texts from iOS, watchOS is running messages and only sharing data. I imagine this pattern works a large amount of the time in Apple's

It was also pretty great for media consumption on the go in a world before iPads. I always felt like it compared with the netbooks, and preferred the full OS on a real machine than the watered down netbooks, but agree it was most impactful

I rode past the museum on a hop on/off bus tour during my first trip to San Francisco, and being a Disney Adult, went back to my hotel and looked up, prioritizing a trip before I left. I was blown away, and have made sure to go back ev

That's not been my experience. If I hit power off on my volume knob, it's effectively pause to CarPlay. Does your car treat it more like mute?

That's a good point, and I'm surprised it doesn't come up more often. Not just the language itself, but use of it - how many of us read it in the light of American values taught through English and things like not cursing or

Latency is a different thing, though. Yes, latency is worse in some cases than copper-connected phones were, but that's a highly subjective statement relative to the connections. But quality alone has never been higher than it was, and

I am not sure which landlines you remember, but VoLTE voice quality is better than every phone I've ever used, from landlines in the 80s to VoIP Vonage phones. POTS systems ran at a lower quality than current phones.

Aside from the good middleware licensing arguments, if my memory serves me, Valve employees get to shift their work to what interests them at the time, and who knows what tidbits of could-be versions of HL3, Portal 3, or other interesting b

Club 33 is big in Disney lore. It's where Walt raised money for the Florida Project. Even though it's tucked away, those who know stand outside the door just hoping to peek in when someone comes and goes.

People don't watch The Matrix expecting a documentary on how we all got plugged in. If someone generated the referenced ladybug movie for use in a science classroom, that's a problem.
