Can you please give a concrete example of what Apple should do, in your opinion, to expand their API targets? And how is that related to web standards complexity?

One problem I have with catchall is passing my emailadresses between "rings of trust". Example: say I have an email for close friends and family: me@example.com. Everywhere else I use spam<random_number>@example.com. All

I am worried, both about the situation unfolding, and the fact that a lot of people are almost in classical denial. It’s like watching “Don’t look up” in real life.

I wish there'd be more architects avoiding using full-glass facade. This design looks interesting, but (at least to me) somewhat disturbing. Yes, they make the "artistic" statement, but we're not talking about a picture

I don't think 2h is exactly accurate - you have to get to the airport ahead of departure time to allow for security check/etc. Then there's transfer to/from airport on both sides, whereas train stations are usually in co

If you have control over the router that's connecting to your ISP, and assuming it allows such a thing, try changing its MAC address. EdgeRouterX for example allows this. Chances are, you get different IP.
