Alida Antonia (@ArtByAlida) reported@ATT Your tech support told me that I should go to the Apple Store because he could not fix my issue. Apple had full access to see my settings. It’s an @ATT problem. It’s not an Apple issue.

Chidanand Tripathi (@thetripathi58) reportedReclaiming Your Device The man walked out of the Apple Store that afternoon with his original battery still inside his phone and his eighty nine dollars still safely tucked into his pocket. A week later, he sent the Genius Bar worker a short message. He was finishing his entire work day with forty percent of his battery still remaining. He had not touched the Low Power Mode button a single time. We have somehow accepted a strange reality where we think our expensive modern devices just naturally degrade in a few short months. But the truth is much simpler than that. Tech companies design these phones to constantly harvest data, build their corporate networks, and serve their massive ecosystems silently in the background. They are actively using your hardware and your battery life to do their heavy lifting. Stop letting your own phone work against you. Take fifteen minutes tonight, sit down on the couch, and go through this list. You bought the phone to serve you, so make absolutely sure it actually does.

Greg - Israelite in Exile (surviving the Galut) (@anexiledjew) reportedI bought a set of AirPods Pro from Laptops Direct about a year ago. I have a problem with the left AirPod charging, and I went to an Apple Store to have them look at it today. Astonishingly, the serial number is tied to a date of purchase from 2024 in a Walmart in the United States. Avoid this retailer.

Vel0x (@vel0xAI) reportedA student in the United States received a $3,000 university grant and spent the entire amount on five Mac Minis, not because he wanted a better study setup, and not because he was trying to impress anyone in his dorm, but because he was tired of waking up every morning and explaining his life to an AI that had forgotten everything by the next session. He did not use the money for textbooks, private tutoring, paid courses, or a new laptop like the university probably expected. He went to an Apple Store, bought five small machines, carried them back to his dorm room, numbered them from 1 to 5 with a black marker, stacked them on a cheap metal shelf beside his desk, connected a power meter to the wall, made instant noodles, and went to sleep while the machines began turning his room into something that looked less like student housing and more like a private AI lab built on scholarship money. His neighbors thought he was mining crypto, which made sense from the outside, because all they saw was a shelf full of computers running through the night, cables hanging behind the desk, a small fan pointed at the stack, and a student who suddenly cared too much about wattage. What they did not understand was that he was not trying to mine coins; he was trying to build a system that remembered his classes, his assignments, his codebase, his mistakes, his goals, and the product he was quietly building while everyone else was still treating AI like a smarter search bar. The problem he wanted to solve was simple but annoying enough to change everything. Every time he opened a new AI chat, he had to explain who he was, what he was studying, what project he was building, what the professor wanted, which parts of the codebase were broken, what he had already tried, what had failed, what he had learned the day before, and why the answer needed to fit his specific situation instead of sounding like generic advice from a model with no memory. He realized that the most valuable thing was not another chatbot, but a system that could keep context long enough to become useful. Each Mac Mini became responsible for a different part of his life. One machine processed his lecture notes and turned them into explanations he could actually understand. Another reviewed his assignments before submission and checked whether his arguments, code, and formatting matched the requirements. A third acted like a private tutor that questioned him until he could explain the material back clearly. A fourth wrote, tested, and refactored code for the product he was building outside class. The fifth coordinated the whole system, kept the rules updated, stored the context, and decided which task needed to run next while he was sleeping. There was no development team behind it, no manager assigning tickets, no daily standup, no productivity consultant, and no university department guiding the experiment. There was only a rules file, five machines on a dorm shelf, and a student who understood that local AI became much more valuable once it stopped being a conversation and started behaving like infrastructure. The university had given him money for education, but he used it to build an education system that did not forget him. That was the part most people missed when they saw the setup. The point was not only that the machines were powerful enough to run useful models locally; the point was that they belonged to him, which meant his lecture notes, unfinished code, business ideas, exam prep, personal mistakes, drafts, and prompts stayed in his room instead of being uploaded into somebody else’s cloud dashboard under somebody else’s terms of service. During the day, he still went to class like everyone else, listened to lectures, submitted assignments, and looked like a normal student trying to get through the semester. At night, the system summarized readings, found gaps in his understanding, generated practice questions, cleaned up code, tested features, wrote documentation, and moved his side project forward without needing him to sit there and manually push every step. When he woke up, he was not starting from zero like everyone else opening a blank chat window. He was starting from wherever the machines had stopped. At first, people in the dorm laughed at the shelf with the numbered Mac Minis because it looked excessive, strange, and slightly ridiculous for a student room. Then they started asking him to summarize lectures they had missed. After that, they asked whether it could help them prepare for exams, review essays, explain technical concepts, debug projects, and remember the context of their classes without forcing them to rewrite the same background information every time they needed help. That was when the private study system became a product. He packaged smaller versions of the setup for other students, not as a replacement university and not as another generic AI wrapper, but as a memory layer for people who were tired of using tools that forgot them every morning. It became private study agents, class note summarizers, exam preparation bots, coding copilots, and project assistants that remembered the user’s material, progress, weaknesses, and deadlines. The grant was $3,000, the machines cost less to run than most monthly subscriptions, and the first paying users came from the same dorm that had originally joked he was mining crypto. What started as a way to survive his own semester turned into a product other students were willing to pay for, because it solved the problem they had all accepted as normal. Now the system makes around $45,000 a month, and the strangest part is that none of it began as a startup pitch. It began as a student using university money to stop repeating himself to a machine. The university thought it was funding his education. What it actually funded was the infrastructure he used to rebuild it.

Patrick Carter (@PatrickRCarter) reported1/ Parents, we don’t have to choose between protecting our kids and protecting our privacy. Unrestricted smartphones should be treated like alcohol: 21 and older only. Nothing changes for adults. 2/ Here’s the part no one talks about: I cannot protect my child from what’s on their classmate’s phone. One unrestricted device and the whole group has access to the full adult internet. That’s the real problem we need to solve.3/ Privacy is the line between a person and a possession. A slave was property because someone else claimed the right to watch, record, control, permit, and deny his life. A free person requires privacy.4/ Some people say “if a liquor store can check an ID, so can the Apple Store.” That sounds simple… but it’s not the same thing. A liquor store checks you once, in person, for one item. Turning every app, website, and device into a permanent ID checkpoint creates a surveillance system for adults. That’s not protection — that’s control.5/ We all agree kids shouldn’t have unrestricted access to pornography, gambling, addictive feeds, and strangers. The easy fix is right in front of us: Stop handing children unrestricted adult-grade devices by default.6/ Make youth-safe electronics the standard for anyone under 21 — unless a parent is directly supervising. If a company wants its phone, app, or operating system in a child’s life, it should prove it belongs there. Adults keep buying and using whatever they want. No digital ID. No face scans. No adult internet passport.7/ This protects kids at the device level before they ever reach the adult internet. It keeps adults completely free. Privacy for grown-ups. Safety for kids. We can have both.8/ Parents — does this make sense? Drop a 🔥 if you agree we should protect children without forcing every adult to surrender their privacy. What’s the one thing that worries you most about kids and phones right now?
