Wispr removed the ability to delete history?
I've looked online how to delete all my transcripts, and the guides say you can select 'delete history of all of activity' it in the desktop app under privacy, but that doesn’t even show up in the desktop app now.
Have Wispr removed the ability to easily delete your data?
Has Wispr on iOS improved in the last 6 months?
I uninstalled it because the bugs and limitations were driving me crazy, have they fixed them yet? Would love it if they have.
習近平誤判的可能?《紐時》專訪陸克文:2028年是台海「最危險的一年」 | 過去24小時
澳洲前總理陸克文(Kevin Rudd)7月14日在《紐約時報》(The New York Times)專欄作家艾茲拉・克萊恩(Ezra Klein)主持的Podcast節目「The Ezra Klein Show」專訪中警告,2028年可能是台海風險最高的一年:台灣屆時剛舉行總統大選、習近平剛完成新一輪連任,而美國經歷伊朗戰爭後,軍備存量與出兵意願都可能被北京低估。陸克文並非預測習近平會在那一年動手。他說,自己「非常擔心的是習近平可能在2028年誤判」。
「The Ezra Klein Show」是《紐約時報》觀點版的旗艦Podcast,該集以〈美國人需要理解的中國〉(What Americans Need to Understand About China)為題,對談長度將近兩小時。克萊恩在開場白裡說明找上陸克文的理由:「你無法理解今日的中國、它現在的樣子與未來走向,除非你理解習近平本人、他所掌握的權力,以及驅動他的那套意識形態」,而陸克文罕見地同時以學者、外交官與政府首腦三重身分研究過這個問題。克萊恩介紹,陸克文說一口流利中文、寫過以習近平意識形態為題的博士論文;陸克文本人也在訪談中透露,曾與習近平以中文長談。
I feel like Apple’s restrictions push people towards not paying for movies
I used to download movies from P2P sites as a teen but since being an adult and getting a job I thought I'd do the right thing and buy the movies that I really like on Apple TV and keep them in my library.
I spent a couple of years amassing a movie library to watch on Apple TV, only to watch most of it disappear after changing countries, and it’s made me question why I even bother.
As soon as you set your region to a different country, most of the movies you bought disappeared. Now Apple says you can download the movies to watch first, but you can only download them in HD quality not 4K. If you bought a beautiful 4K version, that's completely gone now.
Also you're not able to download any of the iTunes extras that come with a movie, so the director's commentary or any of the nice extras that come with a movie you bought all disappear, regardless of whether you've downloaded the movie or not.
If I were to just use those Jellyfin/Plex services, I would literally have an entire 4K library in every country that I wanted, for a fraction of the price. I'm trying to do the moral thing here but when you put such ridiculous restrictions on people being able to own and watch the things that they buy, it makes me question why people would even bother.

Best Prizm lenses to make the world look better than it is?
I live in the UK where the weather often sucks.
My friend let me try his Prizm lenses on yesterday and they were amazing - they gave the whole world a beautiful bronze tinge where the weather looked so much sunnier and happier! Trouble is my friend has no idea what lenses he has.
Does anyone know what the best Prizm lenses are to enhance the world and make it look better?
Anapaca vs Kaha - durability and waterproofing?
I've owned the Anapaca GTX for a year and they're the comfies footwear I've ever owned, except they are absolutely not waterproof in the slightest (socks instantly feel wet in rain) and the heel cushioning has completely worn away. How is Kaha by comparison? Is it generally considered a better shoe?

Best low-key Rimowa for increasingly lawless cities like London/Paris?
I’d like to buy a Rimowa for the quality and lifetime guarantee. However I travel between London/UK and Paris a lot, and heard lots of horror stories from friends getting their luggage robbed on trains, and have been unfortunate enough to have it happen myself with a duffel bag. Which is the best understated Rimowa that doesn’t create a massive ‘steal-me’ beacon for thieves?
Prizm Black polarised lenses don't seem very dark?
I was really looking forward to blocking out a lot of light using the Oakley lenses but after using them they don’t feel like they block anywhere near as much light as my standard Ray-Ban Wayfarers I've got. Are there any Oakley lenses that are darker than this?
I'm wearing Flak 2.0 XL.
I'd pay good money for a heroclip that worked on tables of varying thicknesses.
Tea drinkers: Cut your milk spend in half just by switching to whole milk.
Like many people, I stuck to semi-skimmed milk in tea for years simply because it’s what my mum used and I assumed it was the healthier choice. Then I tried whole milk and hit a bizarre realisation: a splash of whole milk goes twice as far. You literally need half the amount to get the same taste in your tea, yet it costs the same per bottle. If tea is your primary milk drain, switching to whole milk literally halves your weekly spend.
Inside A 50 million USD Agora Garden apartment in Taipei
Anyone else find it super bland and boring? The general lack of imagination in interior design in Taiwan across the entire spectrum from the low end to the very highest end is just so frustrating.
After the disappointment of seeing a 10 mill USD Diamond Tower apartment kitted out like it was a SaaS office space, I had hoped that at least with Agora Garden, someone spending 50 mill USD would possibly have some flair or panache. But nope. The same grey and beige nondescript style of kitchen and bedroom you see in every other new apartment here, only bigger.
I’m yet to see one apartment in Taiwan that could come close to featuring on Arch Digest. Would love to be proved wrong though.
