The MS username space is completely unrelated to the Minecraft one. You have two usernames and the old ones haven’t been changed.

> can I say what a mess the whole Microsoft account thing absolutely agree Fun fact, Xbox profiles can be disconnected from Microsoft accounts without doing 2FA verification. It's a whole problem right now.

You couldn't verify you owned it because you didn't have access to the email presumably? What account system doesn't work like that? Also - having multiple Microsoft accounts is absolutely permitted, I have multiple due to th

I have lots of problems with Microsoft but the Minecraft transition was handled very responsibly.

Because those roads are still maybe 30 seconds or 60 seconds faster on paper and critically they're the major roads with minimal intersections, which all apps prefer.

I think that's already very much a problem, and given that they constrained it to routes that didn't have a significantly different drive time the risk seems low.

Apple Maps does this too but the threshold seems to be higher - it's a lot less willing to do it.

okay, I apologize for using the word law. However, that doesn't mean they cannot ban it by executive action.

If having your personal email exposed would be a matter of personal safety or similar, then stop using it. If you're just using it for junk mail or to get a free trial then keep using it.

Right, but that distinction is not because it's an eSIM - it's just how it's issued. There's no technical distinction, just a practical ease of issuance.

A roaming eSIM would work the same way as a roaming SIM. Just because it's easier to set up (no need to get a physical SIM) doesn't change the regulations around it.

eSIM doesn't change local laws around cell phones - it's not magic.

Yes, eSIM doesn't really change this conversation

It feels cynical to see this as a punishment when it's such a specific use case that does demonstrate deep integration with Siri. Maps, Messages, etc. use Siri for their interactions. I am sure that there was a meeting where they dec

I don't really understand what you mean - yes, it is designed for Apple Music, a tab for browsing for new music, etc. But it still has library views for songs, albums, artists, and playlists. That's the whole thing. Additional tab

This is not straightforwardly true. Many people say that Toyota sells their data to insurance companies, but they do not unless you *affirmatively* opt in. If you read the lawsuits and allegations carefully, they all say that they were tric

Yes, but Siri can be turned off from invocation without turning off CarPlay. You can disable the side button and Hey Siri while leaving Siri "on."

The Music app reads the same library and has the same core music-oriented functions as iTunes. Is the interface what you're missing?
