I have a Fire TV which I rarely use and when I do I stream from the Apple TV box. I noticed that the TV was consuming 50-100mb data per day even when it was turned off. I have blocked WiFi access using my router so I can tell you that it works.

It will be annoying when you search for “Wings” and a restaurant shows up which is 30 miles away because it’s being promoted and is probably just a bar which sells wings and not a wings only place like Wingstop. This is how the App Store search works and that’s why I refuse to go to the app to search anything. I don’t know how you can say these types of search results are good for anyone. The top app/ search result is completely irrelevant and takes up space. It’s only beneficial for Apple.

Did my part

It has already happened. Every social media has their own version, they just need TikTok to die.

Are you using iCloud Relay or a similar service? Your IP is set to or is being routed through Virginia.

I have also seen people go to Google.com on Safari to search.

There are a lot of options to block ads. I don’t pay for any apps and don’t see any ads on my Apple devices.

I’m thinking the same thing. Came here to the comments to see if someone mentioned it. I don’t get why they can’t have an electric stove.

Cool idea but it’ll only work out for people who don’t cook and eat microwave or take out meals everyday.

This isn’t new to Apple. A lot of companies want to save money so they offer to pay for your phone or give you some other incentive. In my previous job, people who were around for 10-15 years had given up their personal phone and were using company phone and number. When they left they took their work phone with them. They got a new phone every 24 months but they had to install the company MDM software so basically gave up their “privacy” to save money. The cellphone plans aren’t cheap so they probably saved $1000 per year just for cellular connection alone.

You can export the passwords using a Mac and you can get the email ids being used for “Sign in with Apple” and just use that email id if you can’t change it on the websites. I do it now as some websites stopped supporting that feature.

It’s a combination of minimum security requirements and features of the OS as well as the developer of the apps. WhatsApp stopped supporting older iPhones and my parents had to upgrade their iPhone5 which is over 13 years old now. I used to use my old iPad mini 4 only for Zoom until they stopped updating it and now my iPad is useless after using it for 9 years. Zoom blocks it at a server level so there is no way to bypass it.

Apple TV handles it the same way. Netflix doesn’t work because they want you to open the app and scroll through multiple rows to resume watching.

Are you required to subscribe through Prime or can I add any subscription?

Apple TV has the “Up Next” feature which helps as the latest tv show episodes from all your apps are on the Home Screen. Even when you search it gives options from different apps. However, it’s painful for me on a mobile device to have so many apps installed, which take up a lot of space.

I need to find a way to block them on Invidious. Shorts just bloat up my Subscriptions page.

The union autoworkers get good benefits like overtime pay for work over 8 hours. Union working come in at 6, then take a fixed breakfast and lunch break and then leave at 2:30. Anything over that will need approval and overtime pay. I’m surprised Ford and Stellantis isn’t alongside with GM.

While you are correct, that’s not the point of this article. It’s about how X lost value. Elon isn’t homeless, so yeah it’s still worth a lot of money.

It definitely is. The PS6 is going to be around $1000. When the phone prices went up I started to change phones every 4 years instead of 2. And now I will get the Slim instead of the Pro, even though I always get the latest and greatest.

Companies now prefer cloud storage because they will still have the data if they fire you as your access will be lost immediately. You could delete all local files and it will take lot of time and effort to recover them.

This is for the cheaper AirPods and the iPhone. Unlikely that they will not ship a cable with a phone. The article is just clickbait to make it seem like it’s for all the devices.

Laws aren’t going to help keep the price down which is also an issue apart from the digital ownership. It’s always cheaper to buy physical games as they go on sale. What’s stopping Sony from selling PS Exclusive for $100 only in their store?

Are we going to get restricted to only buying from Sony store or is Best Buy going to sell me a box with a digital code?
