I'm pretty sure I remember a few episodes that explained that by this point, humanity had evolved past character flaws like avarice. Star Trek's Earth was a utopia because of qualities in the people that lived in it, not lack of scarcity. The subject came up because the crew was interacting with alien species that was not as evolved, and therefore was not living in a utopia.

That’s what I thought too. The author appears to have tried every obvious debugging step, except for switching away from US Mobile.

I’ve been using US Mobile myself for a little over a year, and I remember a period of about 2-3 months where most carriers had implemented RCS for iOS on their services, but US Mobile had not, so I couldn’t use RCS for a while. I don’t know what they had to implement to get RCS working on iOS, but it’s possible that their implementation does not work with iOS 26.

Do you have a .GIF for that rotating rainbow effect, or a sound test?

Sounds like a believable explanation.

This is from 2014. Was there ever any resolution to this? I don’t see any previous discussions about this on HN.
