For me the importance is that it’s free - I wouldn’t even pay $5 a month for a service that I’d use in very unlikely situations probably once or twice a year.

They said it’s free for 2 years with any new purchase of iPhone since iPhone 14; and now they’ve extended it for 1 more year. No one has had to pay for any of it yet - and it’s unknown if/when/how it’ll be a paid service

I didn’t realise android did free SMS over satellite when there is no cellular connection

“Accidentally”

I don’t think a back button is needed - just swipe from the left of the screen?

Actually with some print heads they will be damaged if there is no ink

You can retrofit a head unit or a screen to an older car. It works really well and gives so many more years to an older vehicle.

Look for “CarPlay screen” on amazon

CarPlay transmits audio over wifi

I thought the point of Android was that we don’t like to conform to the walled garden. Why is there such an obsession with jumping Apple’s fence? Might as well get an iPhone then

“36% cut of safari deal”

is very different to

“Google pays 36 percent of its search advertising revenue from Safari to keep its search engine set as the default in Apple's browser”

The former implies some sort of fixed cost arrangement.

The latter implies a revenue share based on traffic and volume of advertising. It could even include all search revenue for ads displayed in Safari via Google owned ad networks - even if the ad placement did not originate from a google search.

This summary literally strips out the most important part 😂

Google's default search deal with Apple is worth so much to the search giant that Google pays 36 percent of its search advertising revenue from Safari to keep its search engine set as the default in Apple's browser, Bloomberg reported.
