I was like level 0 tech support for a company once. Basically the guy who turned it off and on and tried the first result on Google before washing my hands and making it actual tech supports problem.
Boss asked me to check out his laptop. I don't even remember why. I just remember the most visited sites on a new Chrome tab were all *specific* lesbian porn videos on Pornhub. | r/technology | comment | r/technology | 2024-15-06 |
Think that's why Google forced storing your Location timeline from the cloud to your device. So if my device gets stolen, I lose all my location history. Good job Google. Hope Apple don't change anything; they didn't set the husband up with the sex workers or force him to cheat on his wife. | r/technology | comment | r/technology | 2024-15-06 |

How do I get deleted messages
For a friend | r/technology | comment | r/technology | 2024-15-06 |
I don't think apple deletes anything. They just hide it from you so you don't see it anymore, but I'm pretty sure they hold on to everything. | r/technology | comment | r/technology | 2024-15-06 |

Apple destroying families one Apple ID at a time lmao | r/technology | comment | r/technology | 2024-15-06 |
I tested this on my iPhone over a DECADE ago and went “wow that’s messed up”. I could easily pull deleted messages from a computer backup of the phone (not even encrypted).
My reaction then was “Apple seems to care about security, this won’t last.” Good to know it’s all theater. | r/technology | comment | r/technology | 2024-15-06 |
You’ve obviously never worked in software.
It’s simply the way the technology works when you aren’t using centralized cloud storage. It’s the way it has always worked and the way it always will work. That’s part of the reason cloud services exist.
This isn’t a bug, it is working as intended and every single PM on earth would say the same.
For the record PMs love to play that card in incredibly unreasonable circumstances much more so in a situation like this where it is cut and dry that the nature of multiple clients pulling down data from a single server is going to not be synchronized across clients . | r/technology | comment | r/technology | 2024-15-06 |
Omg kudos to you. Seriously hats off. I know it was the only right thing to do, and I’m sorry for how it undoubtedly has affected you, but I’m incredibly thankful you did it. After listening to the “hunting warhead” podcast (and having 3 small kids), I have incredible gratitude for the forces out there fighting CP. | r/technology | comment | r/technology | 2024-15-06 |
So if you are in a sexless married then it's just divorce and fuck the kids life, cheat and also make it an emotional issue, or just dry up and live holding it in? "Oh just go to a Consuelor" so instead just pay (more not to mention) a person to gaslight her into sex that she doesn't want.
Ofc he knew his wife wouldnt be ok with it, he lives in England, and I understand that you would be devastated, but that is straight up christian values that got injected into our society that made sex into this weird shit where is a taboo but also a sacred thing that you can only do with one person instead of the basic impulse that it is.
Go to any country without christian values and they don't give a shit, they even prefer it to the alternatives | r/technology | comment | r/technology | 2024-15-06 |
This just isn’t how client apps work, though, unless they change to an entirely server hosted message system (which SMS isn’t and never can be). iMessage is a send and forget client - even if it held a signal to “delete on next connect” that still requires a live internet connection.
At some point, users also need to take a level of responsibility for their understanding of technology. We can’t laugh at grandma for not knowing how to reset the router and expect Apple to baby proof their tech for us in the same breath. | r/technology | comment | r/technology | 2024-15-06 |
So in high school I was in the computer class and during the year we would take in teacher computers to help fix them.

You can text yourself with imessage and it'll notify all your devices just like when someone else texts you. I've only seen one normal-ish use case tho: Sending a link to yourself is one of the easiest ways to open the web browser on an apple watch since there isn't an official browser app | r/technology | comment | r/technology | 2024-15-06 |

FYI law enforcement can subpoena user data from Reddit to track down pedos. | r/technology | comment | r/technology | 2024-15-06 |
So whats actually happening is that Apple simply removes the pointers to the pictures so that you cant access it. Basically if nothing in the code is referencing your pictures, in theory it shouldnt exist. Most modern languages like Java, etc have garbage collection that would take these elements in memory and free up the memory space,
The problem comes in due to the fact that Apple OS garbage collector is not working as intended. These references are left in memory, and somehow, maybe due to an improper assignment or some shit, they are having new pointers repoint to the elements in memory. | r/technology | comment | r/technology | 2024-15-06 |
It should be an option of “delete on all devices”, it pisses me off with photos that it deletes them from iCloud and other devices, sometimes I just want it off mine, not the ether | r/technology | comment | r/technology | 2024-15-06 |

So many people having no idea how iCloud and imesssge work in this thread. But that’s the problem isn’t it? Tech should be intuitive for the masses. iMessage is functioning as intended in this case because the guy didn’t turn on iCloud syncing for messages, but maybe the feature shouldn’t have been this convoluted in the first place. | r/technology | comment | r/technology | 2024-15-06 |

No, he didn’t configure his Messages app properly. With “Messages in iCloud” enabled, any deletions made will sync to all devices. This bozo didn’t turn on syncing, and expected the app to somehow cover his tracks magically. | r/technology | comment | r/technology | 2024-15-06 |
The best analogy I can come up with is POP vs. IMAP for email. In order for deletions from Messages to sync to all/other devices, the feature called “Messages in iCloud” must be enabled. If it’s not enabled, deletions don’t sync, period.

That’s exactly how it DOES work. The person didn’t turn on cloud sync so the other devices don’t get the notification that it was deleted. | r/technology | comment | r/technology | 2024-15-06 |
Deleted messages DO delete across all the devices that ate synced though. In this case the device it didn’t remove from was not synced with the others. | r/technology | comment | r/technology | 2024-15-06 |

My best friend I've known for over 15 years got a new girlfriend late last year. We went to go get some food and shoot some pool and I legit forgot my wallet, so he covered my food which for us isn't even something we would worry about which kind of comes with the territory of knowing someone for so long. Sometimes I pay for his shit, sometimes he pays for mine. Now that we're both more established in life it doesn't happen as often, but still.
Apparently, his girlfriend was VERY upset that he paid for me and started an argument about it (it was like 20 bucks max). And all I can think of is "bitch, who the fuck do you think you are?". They lasted until March, she was incredibly cheap, way beyond frugal and tried to control his finances.
The other shitty part is while they were together for six or so months aside from that pool outing and one or two golf outings he had basically fallen off the face of the Earth and every one of those times I saw him of course she had to go along.
I can't stand people that clingy, I want to be able to still have my own shit going on and I expect a partner to also have their own stuff going on and not require me as a crutch for them as a person. And yes, I have talked to him about my feelings about him disappearing like that. | r/technology | comment | r/technology | 2024-15-06 |

I didn’t have a personal computer for a while, so I was regularly going on Neopets for 3 months with my work laptop. Nothing happened. Now I have a laptop, but I’ll check the news every day on my work laptop. Sometimes I get crazy and play a little Wordl. Nothing will happen. I’m never gonna do anything illegal or shocking, of course, but mundane stuff? why not? If it’s the type of workplace that cares that much, we’re not a good match and I’d like to work somewhere else. | r/technology | comment | r/technology | 2024-15-06 |
I get ya. 2 thoughts, I mainly being a general bashing of Apple being the unimaginative fuckwits they are, simply riding on the success of the continuously stupider part of the population who also are mainly such lame-ass unimaginative fuckwits that they were re flat out fucking clueless on how to engage others until the apple fucks, with their fuckwit arrogance, tried to improve, by taking an alternative path to the crazy open source side of things, and asking the way slapped a lame ass apple on their pos devices.... Accidentally, but fortunately through pure happenstance, giving so many lame ass fuckwits a chance to finally approach another and have something to talk about, routinely, other than their god damned shoe laces, or ford versus Chevy bullshit.....gd fuckwits every gd where, smh...
#2 offshoot of planned obsolescence: allow whatever casual fuckups that they can't figure out, to just ride on out, adjust your tie, wipe the sweat from their brow, steady your voice, and smoothly call it planned obfuscation, to distract the public from any real serious issues they haven't noticed yet, all for your sake almighty board, and nothing else, nothing else at all, bc I'm what you put here bc you're so gd smart, and since you're so gd smart, there's no way I'm that gd stupid. Right? Just throw some bs in the terms, blah, blah, and even if it does eventually happen to large masses, no one will give a fuck bc it's happening to everyone else anyway. Big ass check please, motherfuckers, I'm off to get my dick sucked.

Yep it's not consistent at all. It's random from user to user and you can see plenty of open tickets and forums complaining about it. Support acknowledges it but can never actually do anything about it.
There's another issue where if you delete texts in iMessage it won't delete the time stamp, so if you're in an abusive relationship and you're trying to send texts out and then delete them after -- your abusive partner will know because the conversation will still be at the top of your recents.
Apple really needs to fix their shit. | r/technology | comment | r/technology | 2024-15-06 |

I used to work at a tech store that offered virus removal and the amount of weird porn I've found has made me realize any kinks i have are literally a drop in the ocean by comparison...also I dunno if the older you get the weirder stuff you seem to be into but anyone over 50 seemed to have the wildest stuff. Thankfully never ran into CP but the amount of Scat, Feet, BDSM, race play, and so on was eye opening, once had a guy that had literally thousands of pics of little people porn which was also interesting, I started using gloves anytime I handled a laptop after my 1st week on the job as well. | r/technology | comment | r/technology | 2024-15-06 |

>Not apple’s fault
About that -- It varies from user to user, even if you have the option disabled it'll still do it. I've had a similar issue and support already checked through to try and fix it. After a couple of hours they said they'd escalate it and said it was a commonly known "issue".

While you are correct on spinning disks, this is generally not true on solid state drives. They fully delete the data for performance reasons. It bit more complex but more or less, a trim command is sent after something is deleted. This cleans up dead data so the drive is ready for new writes.

I messed up a marriage once where our friend reached out to my wife and I in confidentiality on Facebook messenger about her husband's controlling and manipulative behavior. She was just venting and didn't want us to give advice or take action. Three months later, everything is going a lot better with them, and I was needing to text her, my wife, and her husband. Instead of creating a new chat, I dumbly just added him thinking it would start a new thread. Nope. It gave him all our chats going back months. They separated for about three months that day and are still on the rocks. | r/technology | comment | r/technology | 2024-15-06 |
It's not apple's fault at all, they ask you if you want these things on when you first set them up, and they have descriptions on what the settings do. | r/technology | comment | r/technology | 2024-15-06 |
Eh...most people are average | r/technology | comment | r/technology | 2024-15-06 |
They do this for privacy reasons. If you have it off, your iMessages are end-to-end encrypted and cannot be retrieved by Apple even if they wanted/needed to because they are only stored on your devices.
If you turn it on, your iMessages are still end-to-end encrypted, but then backed up to Apple's servers afterward and can be retrieved by Apple for legal reasons / because you lost them.
Apple does, however, also offer a setting where they encrypt your iCloud data with a key only you (and your devices) have, meaning they once again cannot retrieve your data. They give you a rather long string that you have to type back in to confirm you have it before it enables, along with some big warnings about how if you lose access to your devices and don't have that key, they won't be able to help you get your stuff back.
For all their faults, it's pretty inarguable that Apple clearly gives a shit about it's users' privacy more than it's contemporaries. | r/technology | comment | r/technology | 2024-15-06 |

I don't use Apple and this is kind of why. That language is pretty abstract. There is something called "the cloud" where my messages are and something you've called "iCloud" which I presume must be connected or maybe even the same thing. Messages are text messages which are a mobile phone thing but you can get them on your computer? How does it get them then? Via this cloud thing? But the cloud (or iCloud) doesn't sync them, that's a setting? | r/technology | comment | r/technology | 2024-15-06 |

Should be noted that this is only accurate for older school spinning platter hard drives, not the kind of storage you find in a phone or modern computer.
