Can't change notifications email [iOS] (lemmy.world)
 

I have only one Apple device and nothing else. I wanted to update the notifications email for my Apple account.

I open my AppleID in a web page of Safari on my iPhone.

I follow these steps :

1	Log in to appleid.

2	Select "Sign-in and Security"

3	Select"Notification Email" (the defunct email is displayed)

4	Select "Change Email"

5	Enter a new valid email address in the modal popup.

6	Click continue.  The following message is displayed:

"Continue on one of your devices On an iPhone, iPad or iPod touch go to Settings > Apple ID. On a Mac go to System Preferences or System Settings > Apple ID."

When I look in Settings > AppleID ON THE DEVICE there is no option anywhere to change notification email … 🤷🏻‍♂️

People have been posting about this on the official Apple support forum for years with no solution mentioned.

Adguard DNS + Adguard Pro Safari extension. No need for other browsers. Works better than anything I tested. Honourable mention to Brave browser.

All of the digital assistants appear to be degrading to me. I suspect directing consumers to paid ‘AI’ versions which allegedly work, are the corporate plan.

You may have overlooked Snapseed. Free as in beer, surprisingly full featured.

Artificial marketing segmentation by selling obsolete tech taken to bloody extremes. USB 2.0 is an insult

Adblocking still subpar.

Inside the "3 Billion People" National Public Data Breach (lemmy.world)
 

“there were no email addresses in the social security number files*. If you find yourself in this data breach via HIBP, there's no evidence your SSN was leaked, and if you're in the same boat as me, the data next to your record may not even be correct”

Linux kernel impacted by new SLUBStick cross-cache attack (lemmy.world)
 

A novel Linux Kernel cross-cache attack named SLUBStick has a 99% success in converting a limited heap vulnerability into an arbitrary memory read-and-write capability, letting the researchers elevate privileges or escape containers.

The discovery comes from a team of researchers from the Graz University of Technology who demonstrated the attack on Linux kernel versions 5.9 and 6.2 (latest) using nine existing CVEs in both 32-bit and 64-bit systems, indicating high versatility.

Yes, I tested the ‘Go’ version which allows 3 day trial before levying a subscription.

Based on that I purchased the ‘Pro’ version as it meets my needs well and I hate farking subscriptions lol

  • Beware there are imitators with almost identical app names and identical app descriptions.

You want the app by Stratospherix

Wealth inequality is growing rapidly and the tax system is making it worse (lemmy.world)
 

Inequality in Australia is growing and is driven by the rapid accumulation of wealth by the very wealthy.

The wealth of Australia’s richest 200 people nearly tripled over the last two decades. In 2020-21, capital gains exceeded all other types of income combined. Tax reform is needed to address this problem.

‘File Browser’ looks promising. Comes in 3 versions, less featured one off purchase, full featured subscription version (Go) or full featured one off purchase (Pro).

Has been in the App Store many years, still in active development. Affordable. Will probably plump for this if nothing better is suggested.

  • This is the app by Stratospherix. There are imitators in the App Store

Thank you very much for your suggestion. This looks like a more reasonably priced solution. After re-reading the description I note the developers say that it EXTENDS the iOS Files app, in other words I can access files already present ‘on your phone’.

Thank you for your suggestion. $99.99 to do file management tasks is a bit rich for me …

One thing I’ve taken for granted on other platforms is simple batch operations. Want to rename MORE THAN one file? I’m SOL on the Apple Files app.

I make do with (buggy) homebrew shortcuts at the moment for such things.

File Manger for iPhone/iPad? (lemmy.world)
 

iOS App Store seems to have about nine hundred ‘file managers’ all of which are anything but and demand ridiculous subscription costs.

Is there a decent file manager for iOS that actually will do file management things like select multiple file & rename etc that isn’t a scammy subscription/Ad ridden mess?

*Yes, I’m aware Files app is provided by Apple, but it’s extremely basic.
