It's interesting that Android is actually ahead of iOS on this, as simonw pointed out, iOS still doesn't strip location data from photos uploaded via web forms. This should be the default on both platforms. Most people have no idea they're attaching exact GPS coordinates to every photo they share, and the safety implications alone (stalking, doxxing) make it worth the tradeoff for the small number of use cases that rely on it.


But iOS allows to choose whether location should be included or stripped, and remembers your choice for next upload if I remember correctly.


God, I hate that OSes have nannies that are getting more and more involved, and look at how many HNers like you are saying that it's a great idea...

What's next, "I can't let you view this content, it has been deemed too radical "?


Homebrewing beer and wine was illegal at the federal level until 1978, and the sky didn't fall when that changed. Distilling is the same kind of personal-use activity — the main difference is that the law just never caught up. Good to see the courts pushing this forward.


Wrong thread. You probably meant to post here: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=47755629


I have a MacBook and honestly barely use it anymore partly because of this. The front edge digs into my wrists after any extended session. It surprises me from Apple — a company known for obsessing over every detail of the user experience. Do they not test these things for hours of actual use? It's the kind of thing that seems like it would get caught immediately in any real-world usability testing.


Reminds me of the magic mouse having the charging port on the bottom


Fun game! One thing I'd love to see is difficulty modes. An easy mode with some kind of aim guide (maybe a trajectory preview on tap-and-hold?) could help new players get the feel for it, and a hard mode where you control launch speed or angle would add a nice skill ceiling for people chasing high scores.
