It's a non UK publication, converting it to USD makes it easier for the readers to gauge the cost.

Which iOS version? 27.0.1 here and they're all revoked for me.

It’s already difficult enough, unless Apple removes the option completely I don’t see how this improves anything. Users don’t read prompts.

Samsung has done it again. They've been making foldable phones in a certain screen ratio and somehow this year they decided to change it to match the unreleased iPhone fold.

Yeah 6Ghz freq doesn't have DFS channels which remove a lot of usable channels for 5Ghz. Unfortunately it'll be a while until most devices support 6Ghz.

The keychain data of an app on iOS is NEVER removed from your device, unless you completely wipe the device. This has been the behavior since the beginning.

The first time I saw a blind person using an iPhone, I was blown away. I follow some Apple engineers who work on accessibility, and they all seem very passionate about their work. It’s an area where I truly believe Apple is doing it to help people, not just for profit.

Some people are just more sensitive to certain smells and flavors than others, especially if they didn't have previous exposure to them.

I've had excellent experiences with Percona xtrabackup for MySQL migration and backups in general. It runs live with almost no performance penalty on the source. It works so well that I always wait for them to release a new matching version before upgrade to a new MySQL version.

I'm not sure in this instance, but for industrial plants, the expectation is for them to run 24/7/365 without disruption. They're not designed to be turned off and then on again. When you shut something down, how do you "reset" it to a clean state so production can start again? Think about all the existing stuff still in the pipes, residual, etc.
