  • TikTok has a plan to avoid getting banned in the US

    I was curious so I downloaded it and signed in. The data to set up an account is trivial. And you can lie. So what data they have on me is an email address, an incorrect birthdate and a preferred username. Period. “National Security threat? How on earth. 

    I’m more concerned about the cameras hidden in those made in communist China microwaves. Eyeroll. 

    And I just looked to double check: it doesn’t ask for access to location services and web app activity tracking is off by default. (iPhone)

  • iPhone 14 Pro vs Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra - compared

    And then there’s this:
    BGR

    $1,200 Galaxy S23 Ultra has a screen defect that Samsung calls normal”

    “ Parts of the display might appear as squashed near one of the corners. It’s not a great look for a $1,200 phone. But Samsung calls it normal, as the screen defect results from the manufacturing process.”

  • Kuo doubles down on iPhone 15 Pro having no physical buttons

    With MagSafe charging efficiency at half of a cable I’d not welcome that change. My travel battery pack burden instantly doubled.

  • New York passes functionally toothless Right to Repair bill

    When you took it to Joe instead of Apple while it was under warranty and Joe fries it? That’s on you. I’d support independent app stores with the same consequence: that sideloaded app that wasn’t security checked vacuums your identity? Oops. That’s now between you and that app store in Romania. 

    Maybe it IS past time Apple stopped completely trying to save some from them selves.
