Look at money man over here. Showing off his two tongs.

I believe the iOS Mail app is getting a UI redesign before the end of the year.

I would love to see something like macOS’s FileVault encryption. It completely blends in with the login screen and your decryption password is your user password.

Do most smart TVs still allow performing updates via USB? I have an older LG TV which does this.

I’m sure she was super impressed.

If you’d like a GUI, use Trayscale with it.

The Linux version does not provide a GUI on its own, but still makes it super easy to login and manage

I dunno what you’re talking about. Stock dialer has it for me.

Bad jokes aside, is this really not a standard feature? I would’ve thought this would’ve been more common.

That’s neat. I’ll definitely be taking a look at that.

What did YAML ever do to you?

The Mac app? That would be great. Only problem is that the plugin ecosystem is centered around macOS, and they use native UI. However, they do have a waitlist for Windows (and iOS).

Something like that is gonna be hard to pull off.

You don’t carry a laptop around while you’re hiking?

This might be due to how easy Apple makes it to implement this sort of thing. Even if the app isn’t on the App Store.

On iOS, apps must be on the App Store, which requires being enrolled in the Apple developer program. I imagine developers then make their apps paid to cover this.

This is what AI is for.

Either that or they have 20 useless extensions.

Reverse engineering Touch ID might be a lot more difficult than it looks. It does not behave like any other laptop’s fingerprint reader, and even those often don’t work right with Linux out-of-the-box.

Along with the ability to disable the PIN button press visual feedback. Stock Android makes it super obvious what you’re typing in.

So… show your PIN to everybody around you? Or should everybody type in a full blown password to just unlock their phone?

Yeah, I recently started trying their “network pass” and was quite happy that I got coverage (unlike my current carrier.) Tried creating an account to go with it, now I’m locked out for whatever reason, and my username is “null”.

I guess I’ll just use the eSIM they gave me until they cut off my access.

Moral of the story: T-Mobile mobile carriers suck

It’s likely many users still use Automator (which is from 2005). Removing it could break workflows for many people if removed. There’s a bunch of older apps in macOS like this. The latest version of macOS still has AirPort Utility, for example.

Actually, using a Mac with coconutBattery plugged into an iOS device allows you to see the date the battery was manufactured and the cycle count. I imagine there might be other software to pull this information off an iPhone.

This then raises the question why Apple couldn’t show this information within iOS on older models. It obviously has access to this battery information.
