It's definitely possible they're sincere.

It's not at all possible that I'm going to care about or respect anything they have to say about privacy or security.

They're all bad takes.

Panache is flair. It's a certain sort of showy style in how you act.

Charisma is habitually making people like you.

Use parental controls.

It's not that hard to give them the access you need them to have while completely removing anything you don't want them to have.

I want a case that slides a keyboard out from the bottom of my horizontal iPhone so bad.

I hate this. I'd be perfectly fine with network bullshit if it was a universal standardized profile so it actually worked (and I could build a programmable physical remote for it) . But the App Store is flooded with "android TV remotes" that maybe support one specific obscure (unlabeled) TV. I've never found one that works for anything I've owned.

Recently: a friend bugged me until I finally got around to Red Rising

I haven't actually read the series, because it's heavy and I wanted to let it breathe a little. It's dark, and the first one has kind of a feudal setting for most of the book I can't explain without spoiling it, but it's a ride. I always listen to audiobooks at 2x and had to go back and listen to the closing song at regular speed to get the full impact of the emotion.

It's the control center specifically I think. You can turn it off correctly in the settings, but the toggle is fake "not really off" nonsense.

By far the most offensive part of this complete and utter shit post.

Even if you ignore the storage cost, replacing the screen is $100 worth of labor, easy.

Not a fan of the movement here. It was arcadey for a reason.

I use one too.

It's a lot more convenient as a lazy slob in bed or on the arm of the couch.
