b] when did salty become a word that isn't literally about sodie chloride

in like 3 weeks probably. but you can install the beta right now: https://beta.apple.com/sp/betaprogram/ (you probably shouldn't do this)

salty refers to the taste of tears iirc

thanks.
if it actually improves the device I will reluctantly upgrade

see the irony here though is that the reason it is slow is because of upgrades in the first place, not because the hardware actually degraded or whatever

reportedly it is more performant than 9.2, but yeh, I would hold off if I had an iphone 5 or below

he's already on 9 so forward is the only way. i'd wait until the 9.3 official release though because echi + beta software is a recipe for (more) disaster

as far as I can tell ios now annoys you every single day until you upgrade. "dont upgrade" isnt an ultimate choice, you have to make it every day, and it wears you down

I just upgraded to 9.3 beta 5. it's fast as gently caress. granted this is a 5s but I'm betting this is going to improve things a lot for you in a few weeks :)

when I remote in my home computer using screen sharing it's a little blurry

it doesn't make any sense because i run 1680x1050 hidpi on the rmbp and the remote computer is 1920x1200 and the panels native display is 2560x1440
but changing rmbp's resolution to 1920x1200 makes it sharp

it's like the built in screen sharing app is not hidpi aware

I dropped my phone in the toilet and it got a little poo on it but it was still working and the screen lit up the poo. Sound didnt work for an hour, but then it was fine.

But then later I replaced the battery myself. I opened it up and ripped out the old battery and put the new one in and then it wouldnt turn on any more. Stupid worthless apple poo poo!!!

i fixed a 2013 macbook air recently, it would not start at all, it was in some sort of coma sleep mode

you can fix it by waiting 3 weeks for the battery to die, or buy a pentalobe screwdriver to disconnect the battery and turn it on (i did this)

apple it just works!
