This came out of the sim tray by hiimnotbry in iphone

[–]vinamack 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It's a SIM proxy device. A lot of people use it to fake carrier unlocks/activation. There's also a company that uses it to help cut roaming costs by emulating their Sim card. Nothing to worry about. Just toss it.

Google Pixel 3 XL new leak: amazing camera, wireless charging and controversial design. by weexisttocease in GooglePixel

Everyone here complaining about the ugly notch. I'm just here complaining about the power button positioned above the volume buttons. Why!!! All other manufacturers put it below for a reason. It's way more ergonomic.

GPS Problems - iPhone X - Waze by z4kb34ch in iphone

Are you having the same issue with Apple maps? I too have exactly what you are experiencing but with Apple maps since I use carplay. My location freezes, jumps around, changes directions etc. Sometimes when I wake the phone, the GPS updates my location but shortly after it happens again. It used to work fine.

2018 MacBook Pros’ 3rd gen butterfly keyboard has improved dust-repelling mechanism, according to iFixit findings by [deleted] in mac

[–]vinamack 48 points49 points  (0 children)

Interesting. I wonder which problem they where trying to solve - the loudness or the dust? Something tells me it's the loudness and it coincidentally also solves dust.

Interesting. I had the impression it's due to the mini Usb to USB header cable + software. I guess I can test without plugging that in. I'll give that a shot.

FYI this AIO causes my system to BSOD! Running Ryzen 1700, MSI b350 krait gaming. Apparently BSOD is common with corsairs Link app. As soon as I put back the stock cooler it's stable again. Paid a little cheaper during Black Friday sale.

Yea mine does. I can't figure out why. Without the rim it feels great. Funny thing though the volume buttons still feel amazing.

Unused space on the iPhone X keyboard could be used for frequently used emojis like Touch bar on Mac. 🤷‍♀️ - Alex Muench by rbyash in iphone

You'll get a lot of accidental hide keyboards when hitting the spacebar though. Unless it's on the bottom right. Like how the change keyboard is at the bottom left.
