In my phone, Samsung A14 5G, I have to touch screen below falling bubble to blow it. If I touch the exact location, it is too late.

I mostly use iCloud for photo sync. It would be nice if there was some sort of API or something that third party applications could use to upload and download photos automatically in the background, like iCloud Photos does.

No uploading new photos, though.

Any details about USB-C? I bet this USB-C implementation is not standard compliant in a typical Apple way.

We have an old set, and some friends were over with their third grader, who had to write a report. She tried using wikipedia, but it popped up a 30 page article on an advanced topic she was trying to find a definition of.

I handed her the encyclopedia, and showed her how to look up the word. One paragraph later, she said "that's EXACTLY what I needed."

Indeed.

I used MythTV for several years, until Comcast went digital in my neck of the woods, and my tuner card was useless. What do people tune to content with now? Is it all IR control of a cable box?
