My preferred gas station got tap to pay during the pandemic and I make it a clear effort to use it every time I get gas to try to bump the numbers up so it doesn't go away or gets fixed if it breaks. Such a great feature.

Not OP. Nothing in the original comment was technically wrong. It does feel misguided and perhaps a little naive. But it seems more like an opportunity for a real conversation to both understand why they think that way and as a way to educa

I think you're conflating "cloud" to mean any computer on the internet. I think that's generally a fine thing to do most of the time. But, cloud used to mean something a little different and it's been lost to weird

I don't think this is contrived at all. It is not a "feature." It's not like you open the Instagram app and you can access Threads. You have to download the Threads app. Sure, you can sign in using your Instagram account

That's fair, but let's still call it what it is. We shouldn't normalize hiding information as some sort of form of security.

For Guitar, I'd remove Rhett Shull, dude is just a YouTube channel hocking gear he gets for free. It used to be interesting when he talked about touring but now that he's a full time YouTuber and doesn't play live or touring

Everything I've seen tends to be pretty good. But it's probably more due to it being smaller, at least as far as I can tell. My guess is that the people on Storygraph actually _want_ a better Goodreads and so there's less lik

I think it goes beyond that. Like, if you have Find My turned on, then you can't really sign into your own Apple ID on a device with Find My turned on. I think it's called Activation Lock. Basically, you can only sign back into th

Having worked on an app that, at least in my opinion, was pretty well done for each platform (phone and iPad), this is the case. Our UI for the iPad was a completely separate one. The core code was shared via various internal libraries, but
