  • As a Chinese who does a bit of Wikipedia editing, there is a right way!1!! just that the wrong ways can also work but often work less well. For example, with this grip, your thumb and knuckles have to do a bit of extra force to rotate the sticks as the “levering point” is at the end of the chopsticks, which is quite far. Meanwhile, in standard grip, your middle finger (I just realized that it had to be that finger lol) acts as a “levering point” and significantly shorten the distance to your thumb and knuckles, resulting in a lot less force being needed.









  • I’ve never seen anybody cheer for Apple revenue figures. It’s just a bunch of boring numbers that always go up, unless the company is brave enough to stand against investors. I’ve seen plenty of people defend Samsung for what they do, and in China I’ve seen the most obnoxious Huawei fanboys. Both of these companies have on average the same amount of new features each year as Apple does, and none of them persistently increases the price; the new model costs more now because they’ve cut last year’s models’ prices. To say that DadeMurphy is representative of most Apple fans is certainly an exaggeration.


  • Wow, that’d be a really cool name for bureaucracy if it applied here!

    however, it has been hard to distinguish between the exploitation of pre-existing divisions by opponents, and the deliberate creation or strengthening of these divisions implied by “divide and rule”.

    In this case, it’s “the exploitation of pre-existing divisions”. It’s not like Apple lobbied for “the European nation” to be split.

    I’m pretty sure it was also for compliance with local laws.



  • Yeah you’re wrong. The “Files” app on iOS, which is also embedded in various apps as a file open/save/import/export/share/etc option, has a plugin architecture where third party apps can provide all the same file storage as iCloud

    Photos, contacts, messages etc aren’t exposed to Files. The person you’ve replied to seems to be talking about cloud-syncing them with a third-party service or backing them up in a computer-decryptable way.

    you can sideload enterprise/school/work related apps

    But any other personal app will not be downloadable unless you plan to only use 3 that aren’t already installed.
