On my phone I switched to Element X because Element would take up to a minute to sync messages. I'm willing to put up with the reduced feature set, as long as actual messages fucking arrive in time!

If you have to print, that's probably the best option. I'm just happier without any of this.

My long term objective is to never print a document in my life.

Can we get a discovery channel special that details everything revealed during this discovery?

If we are lucky, it'll end with Musk's bankruptcy.

Where I live a one bedroom apartment starts at half a million dollars. A house is well past one and a half million USD. Guess I'm failing at step one: have an extra house.

Probably. Especially with phone cameras becoming so good that we now need to transfer multi GB video files.

There is a lot more to a game engine than just graphics, although that's an important piece of the puzzle.

Input, sound, physics, networking, collision detection, path finding, scripting...etc are all important parts that are handled by the engine.

To be fair, usb3 has been around since 2008. Surely apple could have afforded to pay 3 more cents per phone to support that.

I'll transfer a bunch of audio books to and from my phone every once in a while. Since they are FLAC files I certainly do appreciate the additional speed from having a protocol that's not yet old enough to drink.

And in case someone missed the reference: USB 2.0 was released in the year 2000.

USB C didn't exist, but it was being developed, and apple was on the USB-IF forum which developed it. So literally part of apple was developing USB-C while another part decided "nah, we will make our own" and of course it takes less time to make your own than to make something everyone agrees on.

Having written some XMPP code in xmpprs, I can assure you, XMPP is not the best.
