They will run Linux, but you might fry them if your fans don’t work properly.

The EFI will control the fans just fine.

SMS, iMessage and now RCS have been working well for me and I’ve been (primarily) using iPhones for the past 8 years now.

The Messages app shows what type of message (iMessage/SMS/RCS) you’re about to send in the text field and displays which (sent or received) messages are what as well.

One thing I could see going wrong is that a given phone number is registered with iMessage and it hasn’t been disabled after switching to an Android phone for example.

Another (imo more likely) thing is that if it’s using RCS, some carriers don’t seem to work too well with it as of now. iOS seems to have implemented the base standard, while Google added proprietary extensions to said “standard” in Android, like end-to-end encryption. I never had issues sending or receiving RCS messages from/to Android devices, but there might be some hiccups for some people as RCS - even though it’s called a “standard” - isn’t really standardized.

Not sure what’s so insane from Apple’s side about any of that.

Your company should provide you with an Apple ID (or “Apple Account” as it’s apparently called now), no…? If they didn’t but one is required, ask them.

At 8 months old it should be well within warranty. Just get it fixed.

I expected something more shocking when I read “working with Russia”.

Kagi uses multiple search backends, and of course it needs to forward search terms to these backends. These backends probably can’t trace the searches back to the individual Kagi user though, but Yandex could still analyze search trends for example.

What’s worse is that - unless they use Yandex’ API for free - customers indirectly (and likely unknowingly) support a Russian company with their paid Kagi subscription.

Kagi should at the very least release a statement about this claim.

People using an S21 (for example) obviously get a bigger jump compared to coming from an S23. It’s similar to upgrading PCs. Upgrading to every CPU generation doesn’t get you huge jumps in performance every time, but upgrading from Ryzen 2000 to 7000 (3 generations) is like night and day.

I remember when TVs advertised bs like “600 Hz clear motion rate”.

They aren’t restricting iPads to iPadOS because of the App Store, but because they want to sell Macs to those who want to use macOS, ideally in addition to an iPad. I don’t see it happening.

A browser with an input field connected to some form of GPT, apparently.

Microsoft doesn’t even support Windows 7 or 8 anymore, so hardly a surprise. Affected customers can switch to either Windows 10/11 or Linux.

Reminiscent of Intel’s 14nm+++ process.

The article specifically states that using one for piracy is recommended. Hence the use of the word “probably” in the title.

Some .deb packages actually include their repository and they can then be updated via the package manager. An example for this is the Vivaldi .deb.

Well, if they need/want storage, what else are they supposed to do though?

This. Instead of making commits time-based (for example once per hour or once per day), make them purpose-based (say, add a database migration in one commit, and change the color of a button in another one). This also makes it easy to cherry-pick or otherwise backport specific changes to different program versions gor example.

Here in Germany I get a “real” (non-shared) IPv4 address and a /48 IPv6 subnet I think. With Telekom at least. Vodafone is another story. I think the user must be able to use their own router because of some EU law.

For those wondering: multiple security flaws that this actively exploited were fixed in iOS 16.5.1 and 17.

Serviceable, but still not great quality most of the time.

It was 9.99 for many years and now it’s 10.99, a ~10% increase. Not sure how a single, small price increase in years turns something from good to bad. Sure, there are many reasons to dislike Spotify, but pricing?

I didn’t even understand how to watch it in Germany (eventually figured it out, but the high seas were easier to sail).

I did buy the UHD Blu-ray set of this season though, because I enjoyed it quite a bit.
