When you look at the amount of data one would have to sift through to find anything valuable, it’s a pretty big difference between TikTok & Zoom. Put simply, TikTok saves & distributes short video content. Zoom streams long video ch

Saying that one cannot access one’s texts on an iPhone is quite the hyperbole. It would be a bit of a hassle, sure, to locate a text on a specific day if one had many messages in the thread since then. One may have to scroll for quite somet

I’m sorry you’re having trouble. You can always touch & hold a message, & select “Copy” to export an individual message. You can also screen shot your messages, or simply view them in the app. How does not allowing batch export of s

In that case, he would have never been my tenth son, I would have only thought he was. No matter how hard we try, birth order is one of those things that can’t be changed, even with a revelation. Our mental model of it can be corrected, but

I like the 30% cut for the App Store. It provides them incentive to promote & sell apps, and make sure the App Store is a smooth experience for users, & a profitable one for developers. It’s certainly healthy, if on the high side. B

It seems likely the purpose was to cause more people to think about the game Fortnite by virtue of the publicity from this. It seem like something their lawyers pitched to them as “hey if it works, great, you save millions a year on the App
