I wouldn’t have noticed this if people hadn’t started pointing it out. I’ve seen worse examples out there than mine. I suppose I’m lucky.

The iPhones 15 can accept USB-C Power Delivery at up to 20 W, but they can only output standard USB power at 4.5 W.

That will power most any accessory and charge your AirPods, and it’s a huge improvement over Lightning’s 300 mW output.

Sorry, you’re not. All models have USB-C connectors, but the non-Pro models are limited to USB 2.0 speeds. The USB 3.2 controller is part of the A17 processor, so that’s why it’s limited to the Pro line. It’ll make it to the iPhone 16 line, though, but for right now, it’s a Pro feature.

I use Linux and my iPhone shows up in GNOME’s file explorer. I’m able to drag and drop files into apps. (They appear like directories.)

I can’t tell you what needs to be installed, since it worked out of the box on Ubuntu, but check your package manager for “iOS” or “iPhone”.

Thank you for the explanation! Makes sense given the SoC design.

Indeed. I guess they saved a few cents by not including the USB 3 controller on that model.

It could be a processing limit. What’s your upload speed? Have you tried enabling Smart Queues?

If you have CGNAT, you’ll need to use IPv6 to get connections from the internet at large. The downside is that IPv4-only instances won’t be able to communicate with you.

Plex server. Can it decode HEVC in real-time? I don’t know. But if so, congrats, this obsolete computer just got another decade off the scrap heap.

I can’t log into my instance. It gets as far asking for my MFA code, but it’s never correct. (Yes, the code works on other apps/devices.)

EDIT: Actually, I can’t log into Mlem either. It might be my instance. False alarm.

Same here. It won’t accept my MFA code no matter what.

They killed off the motion coprocessors, I believe. Now it’s just a part of the A-series, gone the way of the 80387.

They also dragged their feet switching from PPC to Intel. Something tells me Adobe isn’t using Xcode, where you just flip a switch.

Lightning is great, but I’d love to standardize my go-bag. USB-C won’t make me upgrade my cracked iPhone 11, but it’ll be a nice perk once I get there.

The future is coming soon.

I don’t know, the article summed it up perfectly. Of course, I do it anyway. If someone steals and decrypts my laptop, and decrypts my password vault, they’ve earned the contents of my bank account.

Oh good, I love Markdown.

Fire up your email client, and add your Gmail account (doesn’t matter if it’s IMAP or a Google-specific connection method, just don’t use POP3 or webmail). Control-A to select all messages in a folder. Drag and drop them somewhere else.

Source: I did this years ago when I left Google for self-hosted email. Moved all my messages into Thunderbird. Tested backups. Never looked back.

I’ve always liked the lamp. Those displays got fairly wide by the end of production.

I’m forced to use Outlook on mobile for work, so I have my personal email in there too. At least until Thunderbird for iOS gets made, at which point, I’ll find room for a second mail app.
