I never hold the tablet - a Kindle is the upper limit of what I'm willing to hold. At home my (coverless) iPad always sits on a 3rd party stand, so I simply put the stand on my lap. And maybe have a coffee in hand. And maybe a plate wi

I somehow got their email a week or so after the event, and after my card's fraud prevention called for suspicious activity, reverted the transactions and cancelled my card. The bank official was not aware of the leak.

I use Keepass and still manually paste and autosave my passwords. Have browsers extensions improved for this? When I last checked 5 and 10 years ago, it didn't seem to work.

Couldn't the receipt of votes be an encrypted result derived from the voter's key for which only the government/district has the private key ? It would not show the vote but only guarantee that your vote has not been modified

One thing is not buying into the marketplace. Use free apps, use web services, use a home server. I made a single app purchase in the last 5 years so I don't feel too locked-in, at least other than habit.

Yes, the "upgrade" to ios 11 slowed down app load/switch times on my ipad by several seconds, even after a full reset (made no difference). It's nonsense that I am now stuck with it.
