I might switch to iOS for my next phone. I'm tired of the extremely delayed notifications on Android.

@matty @DeezMistaReez @d0c40r0 @sapphire iirc as far as information theory goes, small changes in bits should optimally change hashes a lot, but don't take my word on it.

Can’t the MD5 be modified, though? Say a way to make every file reflect the same MD5? I imagine that doesn’t make sense, but it can certainly be modified from the original.
Not sure how to remove exit data other than an app or website. That’s the only way I know.

I mean technically if you modify a file or its metadata the MD5 hash should change, at least I think. Like adding a black dot to an image would change its MD5 sum but I'm not entirely certain.

MD5 also, but yea, if an exif data removal app existed that didn’t track and archive everything and “removed upon save to device”, dude that would be legit.

@DeezMistaReez @d0c40r0 @matty you know you can just edit or remove exif data on your own right?
You also know an MD5 hash of any file is an intrinsic property of the file and not something you can "remove" right?

Yea for sure. “They” know everything (sad to the poor sap that has to sift through all that shit), but now AI is doing the majority of the work for them. I would love to have an off-the-shelf parts Linux smartphone that removed all MD5 hash data. They would lose their shit.

@DeezMistaReez @d0c40r0 @matty I just don't fucking care, I download whatever jpgs I find online and add them to my camera roll. The government already knows I downloaded it if you believe 10% of the conspiracies out there, and all Apple wants to do with my info is sell me more Apple products, which newsflash: I already own most of them and I run two adblocks

@DeezMistaReez @d0c40r0 @matty you use a cable? I just let iCloud handle it

I’m good with cloud. It is bad enough their fuckery AI scans every photo in my inventory. I turn all the cloud shit off. I have had a 1TB storage on my last two iPhones, and there is no way I’m uploading all these random memes up to the cloud. Like a storage unit full of picnic tables.

@DeezMistaReez @d0c40r0 @matty oh I just build in the cost of my phone to my phone bill, my phone costs me $65 a month and I get the new one every year, I use the thing too much not to have it working

Same. But even their data transfer technology sucks. If they would only make the USB-C to USB-C transfer from say a 15 to 16 work flawless, that would be the tits McGee.

@DeezMistaReez @d0c40r0 @matty hold and drag the space bar to move your cursor instead of tapping, in 99% of cases its faster anyway. Hold it til it vibrates, then drag left to go back and right to go forward

Yea I know it, but tapping is faster because the cursor doesn’t always go where you want it. Maybe my big ass thumb. The highlight shit is stupid. They program in “Planned Obsolescence”, which I’m starting to see even in a newer iPhone. The touchscreen is starting to fail intermittently. They have been programming this shit in for years. I’m sick of all the major brands doing this shit. It is blatantly obvious.

@d0c40r0 @matty I haven't had problems with iOS autocorrect, you can turn off the whole sentence predictor shit they added in iOS 17

The keyboard does this auto highlight bullshit now that is fucking annoying as hell.
When I try moving the cursor to a new location, it wants to select an entire word, which motherfucker, that is fucking dumb.

only real complaint I've had about it is that recently they've made autocorrect suck ass, but you can do a third party keyboard anyway so it's not like it makes a huge difference
