You see I find this interesting, as I don't run any extensions these days, so have no idea what I'd. ask for. What am I missing?

This is what I want the internet to be. Great read.
I wonder how much of this is also driven by Microsofts current downward trajectory, I and others have switched to linux this year.
My 20+ year old dumb samsung TV needs replacing, and has done for a while. But it's stuff like this that makes me shy away from upgrading.
Hard disagree, I'm still rocking an iphone 7.

This drives me insane. Lazy input boxes that only accept email domains from the big names.

Easy to fix a well documented router now. Difficult to fix a non documented router in five years time because no one has been contributing to the web about its bug fixes.

It interesting to see how my kids barely know how computers work, but growning up on DOS, 3.1 and 95, I was basically learning to troubleshoot issues just by trying to us a computer.

The same issue applies to fastfood, coffee chains and taxi services. Capitalism.

LONG PRESS????!?! you legend. How does one find these things out.
Drives me insane that to see my existing Google library and shared albums I must allow Google photos access to my phones photos - at which point it turns auto back on.
yup, this is how I 'type'
This might be how Apple will start to see even more sales, the M series processors are so far ahead of anything else, local LLMs could be their main selling point.
Have you seen windows lately?

(but yes, Apple seems happy to ship buggy software these days)

The same can be said about those working in the weapons industry etc.
Yes, the window has shifted considerably since Google glass
Re:Apple introduces the new iPad Air, powered by M4 on Monday March 02, 2026 @04:15PM (#47224174)
I wonder if a big part of it is simplification at Apples end. It’s just easier and more cost effective to make more M4s regardless of where they end up?
Re:Apple introduces the new iPad Air, powered by M4 on Monday March 02, 2026 @03:54PM (#47223923)
Honestly this is iPads biggest problem. My is from 2019, and there’s just no reason to upgrade, unlike a phone I don’t need it to have a better camera or be lighter or whatever. They nailed it years ago and the hardware is so good the software never really challenges it.
