The iPhone Lock Screen Is Poised for an Upgrade With iOS 16

Mark Gurman writing for Bloomberg That’s probably going to change with iOS 16 and the iPhone 14. Apple is planning major enhancements for the lock screen, including wallpapers that have widget-like capabilities. Further, I’m told iOS 16 builds in future support for an always-on lock screen, something Apple was originally planning for last year’s iPhone 13. This would allow the iPhone to turn down the frame rate significantly on the lock screen and display quickly glanceable information—similar to newer Apple Watches.

There’s a big problem with Apple and Google’s plans to nix passwords

Jared Newman writing for Fast Company (Apple News) FIDO’s current proposal has no mechanism for bulk-transferring passkeys between ecosystems. If you want to switch from an Android phone to an iPhone—or vice versa—you won’t be able to easily move all your passkeys over. And FIDO does plan to let users copy passkeys one at a time, so if you create an account with an iPhone and want to login on a Windows PC, Microsoft can create its own passkey for that service once you’ve authenticated through your phone. Still, moving passkeys one-by-one won’t be feasible for users who want to leave a particular ecosystem and have saved up dozens or hundreds of logins.

Opinion | The Ford government is destroying this province. Save Ontario, vote.

Lorraine Sommerfeld writing for The Hamilton Spectator Our healthcare system is in crisis, yet, somehow the answer to all that ails us, is more highways. Doug Ford has a bizarre fixation on everything automobile, yet his interest has hardly translated into anything meaningful. He forgave the ETR 407 a billion dollars in penalties. And by cancelling two years of plate renewals, he handed back over $2 billion and has yet to tell us where he will find the missing billion dollars a year it generates going forward.

I train these clever creatures to save victims trapped in collapsed buildings after earthquakes. We kit them out with a rat backpack, and train them to trigger a switch when they find a victim & come back for a tasty treat 🐀#herosnotpests #science #weirdjobs #WomenInSTEM pic.twitter.com/728IQv70NX
