Scripted Tech

The tech side of things of @scriptedpixels. You might not like my views but that's life, deal with it.

@zedomax @mondobytes @Apple @YCImaging You might wanna see what you can do with the depth data iPhone captures to understand what he means when he can edit it: https://t.co/IIWtMTmEv8

While tracking the sh!t out of their users and using China as their test playground for major surveillance across with their devices. Andriod 10 is here to be the friendly malware

@ijustine Check what action your alarm is playing/doing when the alarm is reached - I found mine was just turning off music .. or is that the timer?

A review, hosted on LinkedIn?!

Google is now a search engine that mostly doesn’t send traffic back to the sites they get their data from. They are essentially overfishing the Open Web here.

You turned off superhuman but you continue to use Gmail - you may want to re-think your email provider here 🤣

So the Pixel 4 is a kitchen appliance? 🤣

Kudos for the Face ID feature copy, but hand gestures is a gimmick from Samsung's playbook.

If you use #FaceApp you are giving them a license to use your photos, your name, your username, and your likeness for any purpose including commercial purposes (like on a billboard or internet ad) -- see their Terms:

Dear @GWRHelp I’d love to switch to paperless travel. But sadly, your ‘smart’ approach erodes my privacy. It has a number of trackers embedded that will eat away at my privacy like a #DataVampire

I hurt my neck from the whiplash of the “MacBooks are too thin” crowd throwing it into reverse while screaming that Apple has “killed the MacBook” they dearly loved more than life itself. 💁🏻‍♂️

Just installing the zoom app still makes you vulnerable. Make sure you kill the localhost on port 19421 as well
Uninstall zoom
lsof -i :19421
kill -9 [process number]
rm -rf ~/.zoomus

No, no, no…. Its not copying. Xiaomi calls theirs “Mimoji” not “Memoji” SMH 🤦‍♂️ https://t.co/itbPOyyP03

If there is something that could potentially force Apple to look at building TV sets, this is probably it.

Today I found 22 apps containing adware still available on Google Play with altogether 3,2M+ installs.

These apps hides after launch and display fullscreen ads every time user unlocks device.

Steps how to identify & remove such adware in video (1:36)

@hotstar_helps @refsrc Please, do explain the tech limitations your team has put in place. It’s worrying that your team can’t support such mainstream browsers. There’s no real tech limitation, just laziness here.

[Zac Alan Cichy @zcichy]

Favorite feature so far.

[Scripted Tech @ScriptedTech]

@mattbirchler How do these work across other apps, like WhatsApp?

[Scripted Tech @ScriptedTech]

@layoutSubviews Is that 100% guaranteed. Was just thinking about how this wouldn’t happen on HomeKit 🤔 How does HomeKit do what it does without relying on a cloud service. How does it work with Hue bulbs etc If your home WiFi goes down then I guess we’d be in the same boat?
