  I hate scammers who use "crypto" as an excuse, they give everyone and all legitimate businesses a bad name I have been following this scam "Crypto" company for a long time. They even had the audacity to open 4 shops in Malta promoting their scam to innocent people in person. They are called DistributeX and have also been organising cult-like "community events" to recruit victims They promise easy money for simple daily tasks (clicking green crypto icons on their app) + big returns on deposits starting from €140. Higher tiers require thousands of euros with massive claimed payouts. 180-day lock-in, referral bonuses, luxury rewards… the classic Scammer's pitch. I have since discovered they have: - NO clear registered company in Malta - No verifiable withdrawals (180-day rule + daily task requirement) - Physical “community centres” that feel like recruitment offices - Targeting mostly immigrant foreigners and using dodgy testimonials - App not on Apple Store but they are on Google Play! I have found warnings and court cases in other countries for this eg. Mauritius FSC alert I NEED YOUR HELP TO HELP DELETE THEIR APP ON GOOGLE PLAY This app should NOT be on Google Play. Apple already rejected or removed it, Google needs to do the same. Please report the DistributeX app on Google Play as a scam / fraudulent app. Spread awareness so more people don’t lose their money. Let’s shut this down before more people fall victims. I will keep you posted with updates and more info very soon. They have almost no official social media presence. Instead, only their “employees” and recruiters promote the scheme on personal profiles. I strongly suspect many of these recruiters are victims themselves, caught in the same trap and incentivised to bring in more people to keep the cycle going. When this inevitably collapses, they’ll likely be left holding the bag. @GooglePlay @Android

  @CovidSolidarit1 Sometimes we have to tune issues out. If you can stand the audio I sometimes listen to audiobooks on either YouTube, Spotify, and BBC Sounds. I'd imagine the Apple store has audiobooks too. I just like to get my head in another world for a while 🙏

  African AI has an economy problem. We don’t have an Apple Store in Nigeria. We don’t have that kind of purchase power. Until we create proper consumer purchasing power we will just be renting ambition from foreign capital. Data is where we are and we need to do that well to get to the next level.

  Swap 2: The $50 Apple Store screen protector installation replaced with an $8 Amazon 3-pack. He'd walked into the Apple Store 3 times across 3 iPhones and paid for their screen protector installation. $50 each time. An employee cleaned the screen, applied the protector using an alignment tool, and pressed out the bubbles. Total time: 4 minutes. The repair tech told him the screen protector Apple installs is 9H tempered glass. The same 9H tempered glass that sells in 3-packs on Amazon for $8. The "H" rating refers to the Mohs hardness scale. 9H is the industry standard for every screen protector on the market Apple's, Zagg's, Spigen's, and the unbranded Amazon listing. Same hardness. Same thickness. Same oleophobic coating. The Amazon 3-packs include the same alignment frame Apple uses in-store. Place it on the phone. Drop the protector. Press down. The frame guarantees perfect alignment. No skill required. No Apple Store appointment required. He'd paid $150 across 3 phones for a product that costs $2.67 per unit on Amazon with the same installation tool included free. Saved: $42.

  @nafoviking Glad you like it, I worked in an apple store until earlier this year and those things were SUCH SLOW SELLERS. Absolutely nothing wrong with them, except the charging port sensor was to sensitive to humidity. Just a perfectly OK iPhone.

  @13_T_C It uses the xpub so we shouldn’t have any problems. But who knows really. Make sure you use the right one and not a scam. A guy last year lost 6 Bitcoin because he downloaded a fake sparrow app from the Apple Store. They have no app.

  @Sweetly_Shar @DemzDeliver Incorrect. When in poverty, you don't go to an Apple store and start stealing ****. You go for food. I've been homeless for 3 years in my life, homeless. I never stole, never needed to and neither does a single other person in this country. Every single one of them can very easily get help when and if needed. Doing otherwise is a CHOICE, a terrible one too. No, they steal and break into places to steal the most expensive **** they can so they can sell it online for drug money, clothes to make themselves look rich, or to buy things they don't NEED because they feel it's owed to them. There's a sickness with those cultures and it stems in self entitlement. Also affordability...in NYC? LMAO hahahahaha oh that has been in the gutter since that man took power, even before him it was bad, but it's worse now. Also you don't know the term Bum. I work for everything I get...as a ******* MUTE. I put in all the work myself and work hard, unlike thieves and ****** people who think everything should be given to them.

  @the_transit_guy Down that same stretch you also have the Apple Store and the Boylston entrance of the Prudential Center. It’s hardly an outlier let’s be serious. “Just a block for Newbury” means nothing. It’s not Newbury.

  @LucianSkye I read the rice trick doesn’t work well because there will still be debris 😭 so it might make it worse…. The problem with the Apple Store is that it’s 5 years out of warranty- so I’m not sure how much they can actually do past telling me to buy a new computer :(

  [Please share this for visibility] So Apple locked me out of my Apple Store account (for Lumary) because they need even more documentation! I already gave them my Green Card, my TN ID, and everything they asked for. Terrible user experience, Apple.

  @ValerieAnne1970 Yep. My iPhone 11 suddenly started having issues typing messages. Never damaged or wet. Just one day, started acting up. I took it into an Apple Store and was told that it would cost more to ‘fix’ it than to get a new one and they wouldn’t guarantee they could even fix it.

  So I asked the Apple Store technician the same question again: "Do these settings activated by default really protect the user... or are they slowly wearing down the device?" He didn't have an answer. But every iPhone he checked that day had exactly the same 2 options ACTIVATED. Silently heating up in their owners' pockets.

  @woocassh Man Claude’s security is a pain. Security always comes at the cost of UX, but I think they pushed that one a bit too far. Codex seems to just ask less questions and get it done. I’m literally just about to go out to the Apple Store to buy a big fat juicy MacBook. But maybe I should just rent a server instead 😵‍💫

  6. Free data transfer and setup the service most buyers decline and then struggle alone. When you buy a new iPhone, iPad, or Mac at the Apple Store: the staff will transfer your data from your old device, set up the new one, and walk you through the key features. Free. Most customers say "no thanks, I'll set it up at home" then spend 3 hours figuring out data transfer, re-downloading apps, re-entering passwords, and troubleshooting iCloud sync issues. The Apple Store setup takes 20-30 minutes. They do it while you browse. They transfer contacts, photos, apps, and settings from your old device. They pair your Apple Watch. They configure Face ID. They verify iCloud backup. For seniors and less tech-savvy buyers: the in-store setup eliminates the most frustrating part of a new device. You walk in with an old phone. You walk out with a new phone fully set up, fully loaded, fully working. For Mac buyers: the staff transfers files, settings, and applications from your old Mac to the new one using Migration Assistant. Everything transfers. Even your desktop wallpaper.
