Watching older TV shows I notice a lot more close ups of actors faces. I’m convinced it’s because the shows were produced with small screens in mind.

I believe that many "professionals" have personal liability and carry insurance.

Lawyers, doctors, and engineers to name a few.

> Additionally, Apple learned about Liu’s use of the schematic because he used it on a Mac mini which later synced via iCloud to the MacBook he took from Apple. Apple now also wants access to that Mac mini.

I'm very curious about the privacy implications of this. I know that anything I do and store on my company's laptop can be tracked, but I hadn't considered that if I forgot to sign out of my personal Gmail on it that they could legally search that information.

The files syncing to the company laptop's disk is a layer of nuance that makes this situation tricky to evaluate.

I had a hell of a time getting WiFi roaming to work in my house between Omada APs in a low-interference suburban neighborhood.

Any combination of 802.11r and k/v seemed to just cause my phone's connection to drop for minutes at a time when moving around the house.

I wish I could remember my exact solution for you, I believe I just turned off 802.11r and k/v, set channel selection to automatic, and undid any manual or automatic power tuning.

> this company is basically a roundabout-welldressed shylock

Are we really still casually using the term “Shylock” today?

You’re stretching here.

Companies hire private physical security all the time. Why is digital security different?

Naive question: what prevents Apple from pushing a malicious software update that automatically disables ADP to UK users?
