Notice the difference in color when you do that. As the other comment pointed out, it only disconnects devices. Apple makes it hard for their users to disable bluetooth (or gps) so features like airtag work well.
You are sacrificing your battery life (and I guess privacy and security) for the ecosystem to work.
Google won't let you use GPS for maps without also turning on wifi for similar reasons I guess. It does make it more accurate but shouldn't be required.
Wasn’t there this thing that Google collected a list of SSIDs using their Google Maps cars, and that gave them “good enough” geolocation using passive WiFi scanning, which was much less battery intensive and faster than GPS?
If the pc is beefy enough (win 11 pro runs smoothly) just go with the included hyper-v. Imho you don’t get any benefits installing proxmox on bare metal in this scenario. YMMV of course
What do you mean? iPhones support „magsafe 2“ since 2017 (?) and Qhi-Charging since forever. And no, there is no „general best“ - you at least have to deal with the energy that is lost through induction.
Hm, I have to see if Mikrotik has rule syntax for this. I can already force every app who thinks they will use their own DNS server to use mine but not sure how I could do the same with a proxy. Maybe just force ports 80 and 443? But what's stopping these apps to communicate on non-standard ports?
There's no reason to allow arbitrary traffic in either direction other than convenience. If you want a more secure network, you block everything by default and narrowly open as needed.
Can confirm. I once lost my three week Japan Rail Pass (green car) somewhere in Tokyo station which has > 3 million passengers per day and is just huge. This was my first day in Japan with rides planned through the whole country. These rides would have cost a fortune to replace as you cannot buy a JRP in Japan. It took less then an hour to get it back. I assume nowhere else in the world this would have played out the same way. I was very thankful that day to say the least.
I inadvertently left my water bottle at a ticket machine somewhere in the Tokyo rail apparatus and then traveled 4-6 stations away and reported it to an info booth there. An attendant brought it to me on the next train less than ten minutes later. Mind blown.
It was a heavily insulated water bottle and keeping ice in it made a world of difference as I was traveling at the hottest time of the year.
A small object can be insignificant when it is anonymous but significant to an individual. It's nice when other humans "have our back" at scale.
