Criminal Record was absolutely great. I'm looking forward to Season 2.

It isn't clear exactly why YouTube would go after a client that acted almost like a web browser showing YouTube videos. There were no ad blockers or any suggestions in the app that it was official or affiliated with YouTube.

Wait what? I think it's pretty clear. An app using YT content that doesn't pay tribute to YT. I can't want Andrews videos embedded at AI unless I sign in because I might be a bot?! WTF. This is Google being Google. Greedy bastards who binned their catch phrase 'Don't Be Evil' long ago. But hey baby needs shoes and execs gotta eat.

Captive commercials and that constantly annoying popup for Google TV. No thank you Pain–Google.

I just realized that if you want to track an iPhone owner and not have them notified, leave AirPods on them, around them, near them, etc. instead of AirTags.   

Plus, there are dumb@sses with cars worth half a million dollars who don’t have GPS trackers installed.  

The fact that they paid half a million dollars for the car doesn't automatically imply that it's worth that much.

As mentioned the article didn't say the owner paid that much, just that the car was valued for that amount. Anything is worth what someone is willing to pay for it. There's always some @sshole who wants to demean others because an item hold less or no value to them. Very small world view and says a lot about such hater. The value is often relative but is largely determined by market.

Most any safeguards can be defeated and the goal should be to make a car or domicile less attractive to steal or burglarize. My car costs a tiny fraction of that. It has a factory alarm and is parked in my garage but being the pragmatist I am I have insurance for replacement cost. As his car was recovered your post makes little sense other than to spotlight your insecurities.

And you know this how...

Of all your friends who have cars worth half a million dollars there are some that don't have GPS trackers installed? Maybe they have insurance. Not all cars worth/costing that much are irreplaceable.

While there are usually changed and new components in releases, the iPhone 16 Pro has one item missing. Due to the inclusion of the Camera Control button, one of the 5G mmWave antennae have been removed.

The change could be an issue for users who rely on the high-speed cellular access, especially for the titanium-framed Pro models. Though Apple has shifted the antenna up and closer to the outer edge to try and compensate for this.

Even so, it's likely that U.S. users will continue to have a relatively poor experience with mmWave, considering it is an easily-blocked and weak signal that is only available in built-up areas.

Wow. That's a pretty lame hypothesis. Do you know the change of location negatively affected performance?

How do you know this? What's your background in wave propagation? If AI knew the change negatively affected performance, then it wouldn't be a hypotheses would it.

You know that 5G mmWave has a much shorter range than what's called 5G? It doesn't seem a 'lame' hypothesis that the removal of an antenna might negatively affect performance. I'd say it's reasonable even if it turns out to be incorrect. Relocating a remaining antenna might compensate. Might not. It is a hypothesis, not a conclusion offered as fact.

Maybe someone will do a test with a 15 Pro to see how performance compares to put your mind at rest.
