Yes. Until we can use our palms to pay like they do in China. I lost too many cards when I was still using them.

Shake to toggle flashlight is the one feature that makes people ask about my phone.

Ok, I'll start. Is it antisemitic to question why so many scammers are fleeing to Israel?


How many? What are the top 3 countries scammers flee to?


You didn't answer his question


Was I supposed to? My comments makes it quite clear that I don't have information to do that.

The author of the question appears to have some information I don't (unless he made it up of course), so I asked him to share it


cool it with the anti-semitism


Could be a stunt, or just regular vibe coders thinking LLMs are Jarvis or something.


It makes a lot of mistakes. Without modern medicine we wouldn't live this long. Alzheimer's is not a modern disease.


The primary improvement to human life expectancy was not medicine, but public sanitation. Prior to that, death was bi-modal, with peaks at infancy and old age. When people (and doctors) started washing their hands, the infant peak was flattened. Dead toddlers really kick the average in the nuts.


Screen record apps, that are protected in a normal phone.


Exactly this. If it starts moving files around, who knows where will they end up.


Quick, someone link that xkcd where a crucial open source technology is being maintained by basically a single person, while billion dollar companies rely on it.


Maybe, this is what people actually want to listen to and the algorithm is just doing what it's supposed to. I see people listening to these no name artists, the most boring unimaginative generic contemporary music. Maybe this guy just really knows what the average listener likes. In my opinion Spotify's algorithm is the best in knowing what I will like and probably will replay, I don't think it would work this well if they were manually directing us towards artists.


I feel like Spotify'a recommendations want to funnel me into a cohort whose music taste I supposedly share, but I actually don't. Last.fm seemed to both consider my likes more directly and more creatively. 15% or so of duds are fine, it's better than "oh you liked that dark techno track, it's mini-popular right now so have 20 more".

By the way, last.fm radio exists again, though YouTube is the music source these days.


I'm developing an open source app(flutter) I have already started it in a simulator(kvm). I just don't want to jump through all the hoops and pay to be able to publis the app somewhere for ios users.
