Airdrop is a little bit less friction than all of the other technologies you mention, but the real problem is that Apple has declined to implement any of the technologies you mentioned, and decided to only support Airdrop for transferring files between devices.

So it you want to transfer a file from iPhone to iPhone, than Airdrop is easy and frictionless.

If you want to transfer a file from Android to Android, then you have all the options you mention and many more to choose from.

But if you want to transfer a file from iPhone to Android (or Android to iPhone), then there basically isn't any options. Airdrop doesn't work on Android because Apple doesn't allow it. And all the options you mentioned doesn't work be cause Apple has refused to implement them.

It only shows if you have been using different types of devices. I have been exclusively on Linux the whole year, so mine doesn't show either.

Can confirm, dude is indeed dumb ;-)

If symptoms linked to kidney failure isn't enough to send you to the doctor...

If you're on Android, then Firefox can indeed have uBlock Origin there too

It seems to me that any legislation could easily carve out an exemption for any special editions, only applying to the "regular" version.

As a small follow up, new research seems to suggest that current EV batteries might last 40% longer than any predictions have expected, due to the real-world use of them causing very different wear on them than the heavy duty testing in labiratories:

LOL... FLAC happily handles 192kHz

I live in Denmark, and I see EVs everywhere.

Teslas, Kia EV6, Hyundai Ioniq 5 and 6, VW i.d. 3's 4's, Skoda Enyaqs, Xpengs, BYDs, and even a good amount of Mercedes electrics.

Apparently the statistics say that 11.5% of all registered cars in Denmark are full electrics, and just over 50% of new cars sold are full electric.

The staggered tread pattern, the stiffer rubber, the profile of the tire, and the sound dampening foam inside the tire. There's nothing stopping you from mounting these on regular ICE cars though.

Here's a video explaining more about EV tires:

You do know that a Renault 5 can charge at a Tesla Supercharger, right?

So the charging infrastructure is exactly identical for teslas and all other EVs with a CCS Type 2 plug.
