Enjoy the weekend and get some well deserved rest my dude

Everybody is talking about doing something about that but nobody is doing anything

Oh no, it absolutely isn’t. It’s actually a feature apple implemented to stop apps from scanning and interfacing with the devices on your local network without your approval and Teams has zero explanation on why it needs that permission nor why the calls can’t be made without it while every single other app is able to do so without that permission.
The only other apps that require it are device specific apps (printer, local smart home stuff, FTP, DLNA, etc) and network scanners.
Is it possible that Android doesn’t have that permission and therefore Teams is able to scan the network regardless? You could test it out with an SSH or network scanner app for example

iOS, it’s been that way for a long time…

Correct, using the guest network is better but I think turning off WiFi and just using mobile data is sufficient. I wonder if the permission applies to cellular connectivity as well.

Teams is the worst, you can’t join any call if you don’t allow it to scan your local network. I wish the executives a very nice and agonizing death.

Such a great long read that cleared up a lot of lingering questions I had, thanks for sharing this.

I thought the same when I was reading the Wired article. Fuck Wired, extremely not very cash money of them.

I think that even the most expensive TVs have the same OS and data collection

True, but why shouldn’t we have more options?

Smaller overall size of the phone. If the folded thickness is less than a double of the current slabs, and the unfolded size is bigger than them, doesn’t it make sense to you?
With the “current” technology, we could make phones that have 9” screens and insane battery life (The ratio of screen power usage and battery density isn’t 1:1. Think tablets and their insanely good battery life) but it would be impractical, but if you fold them, you get that exact thing.

Bro why are you only posting gizmochina articles?

I’d take a foldable over the current slabs any day of the week

It isn’t but I don’t think that was specifically the point

Excellent read
