You’re right- theory probably wasn’t the best word. It is known that companies do this but it’s impossible to concretely say how and in what circumstances prices change.
There is a theory that travel websites use trackers and other information readily available about your device and browser to advertise different prices to different people. A lot of VPN companies use this in their marketing actually— showing different prices for the same airline tickets depending on which VPN server you’re connected to in the world.
I haven’t done much research on this personally, but you may be able to see it in action by opening the same site in a normal and an incognito window and searching for a flight/hotel. Or trying the aforementioned VPN trick. There however doesn’t seem to be any specific rhyme or reason for it, and no one can say that XYZ browser connected to ABC server will get you the cheapest prices. There are just way too many variables in play and these kinds of algorithms the websites use are all well-guarded secrets.
Had_ it last night— 2am on Oct. 11th— on my work iPhone SE2. On a wireless charger in Sleep Focus. My 14 Pro was fine both nights (Sleep focus, wired charging). Both on 17.0.3.
Wonder if Apple will make a statement as this seems to be super widespread. And it doesn’t seem like there’s any particular pattern for who it happens to.
Until it’s added to the “vintage” list, which will be a while (another 3-5 years). Until then they will stock repair parts for the 12 mini.
This is unfortunately a fallacy. Those paying rent don’t have nothing to show for it — they pay for a roof over their head. So do you with your mortgage. At the end of your mortgage term, yes, you have an asset that those paying rent don’t, but you also had to drop a large sum of money upfront that they didn’t. Theoretically they were able to invest that money you paid into other assets that may or may not have appreciated more over that same period of time. Additionally, renters are often much more able to move should their living circumstances change.
At the end, you both pay for shelter for a period of time. And yes the argument is largely theoretical and vastly dependent on external factors, but it’s not true that owning is always better than renting.
(I say this all as a homeowner as well, FWIW).
Maybe try turning off mobile data for FaceTime. It’s an option under mobile / cellular settings.
For iMessage I unfortunately don’t think you can do anything but turn it and leave it off entirely.
I have an account but rarely go on the app and never post. I follow a couple of niche accounts for things like our town’s police blotter and, as I’m an aviation geek, accounts that tweet about flight emergencies in order to find out more info about them. It’s also good for breaking news I’ve found.
Haven’t been on Reddit at all since Apollo shut down. Lemmy is my new home!
That is insane!
Been trying a bunch of apps but I think I’ve settled on wefwef. It’s very well-made and is basically Apollo for Lemmy.
Yeah this is truly insane. This will never be on my phone. It also helps that Europe thinks this is bullshit as well and it’s not available here.
Yes definitely. Maybe even more so than iOS.
I’ve been on 17 since Beta 1 and this has been by far the smoothest beta series I’ve ever used. 1 was great, 2 had a few graphical glitches but was still pretty smooth… just downloaded 3 and am so far not seeing anything noteworthy as far as bugs. Everything seems snappy as ever.
The right thing to do would be for the subreddits that went dark to go permanently private on June 30th. The two day protest can be framed as a warning.
If this doesn’t happen there will not be any changes. The Reddit leadership treated the protest as simply something they would need to “get through” before things return to normal.
Thanks for the explanation. Do you know how they’re planning to implement this client side scanning? Take an iPhone for example— where Apple has already ditched their plans to do the same device-wide. Is it planned for WhatsApp, Signal etc. to be updated to force perpetual scanning of the iPhone’s photo album? Because that can be turned off quite easily at the OS level.
The only way I could see them doing it is by scanning any image that is selectively chosen to be sent before the actual message itself is sent—i.e. after it’s selected but before the send button is pressed. Otherwise it’s breaking the E2E encryption.
Is that the plan?
