Why the iPhone 16E doesnt truly fit the iPhone SE's shoes
... and for this customer the rounded edges with an ultra slim case mean I rarely notice the 7/8/SE format in even a pant pocket, and I can continue to use most legacy accessories such as the amazing Zeiss Exolens from the iPhone 7 days...lukevaxhacker said:You completely missed one of the other reasons people bought and kept their iPhone SEs: they're the smaller size of the iPhone 7 and 8. Some people have complained and probably still complain the new phones are too big. And we held onto the Home button. Finally in December we turned in our iPhone SE *second editions* for iPhone 14s, and for me, an iPhone 15 Pro Max (for 512 GB of storage - as much as my daughter's new MacBook Air from Costco not an in store model, but on sale and delivered to a store to insure we got it…). Getting used to swiping around…
Fingerprint scanning is more simple than Face scanning… Especially with my wife worried about the Mask On option (and she has a point on security).

How to make iOS 18 Photos work more like it used to
... every since Apple accellerated 'upgrades' to an annual basis (2011) and makes a change like this I find myself asking what quid pro quo or purely profit motive may underlie the difference, and how might such negatively affect customers ...With decades now of digital assets both personal and work related the difficulty of maintaining access to such and learning or adapting workflows may be vastly exceeded any potential benefits ...The latest assault seems the inability to run VM Windows or legacy mac apps on Apple Silicon. The last caesura was the orphaning of 32 bit apps beyond Mojave, and before that the implosion of iWork and iTunes, including the loss of iWeb which at the time seemed the best bar none web authoring option for 'the rest of us'...All of this has me asking more and more about open source options...

macOS Sequoia 15.2 isn't allowing third-party utilities to make bootable backups
enossified said:There’s one perfectly valid reason for having external bootable drives: testing OS updates before committing to them. I’ve been doing this for years. I'd like to know what applications are broken by a new OS and deal with that in advance rather than trying to back out of the OS update because I am blocked from working.Agreed...... and in fast paced workflows having functional mirror drives can be a deadline saver...APFS has seemed increasingly challenging for so many aspects of maintaining macs in house...Cumulatively:- onboard hardware locks down storage- T2 hardware locks down storage- pricing @ up to 600% of free market options locks down storage (recent check)- apfs 'snapshots' quietly consume inordinate drive space- cloud service subscriptions are offered at premium pricesHow does any of this serve the customer first...?
