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.

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

iCloud+ has this too. 50 seems to be the limit.

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.

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

I haven’t used Waydroid in a while, but I recall there being an image you could choose at setup for Google Services.

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

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.
