217 new emoji, including new skin-tone variations

Yeah that’s useful. NOT.
The lion’s share of smartphone tech is chock full of entertainment and agitation. For peace and rest, go to a sanctuary where the Word of the LORD is taught in its truth and purity. There is no substitute. Difficult if not impossible to find. It is almost as if it must find you.
more from article:
it appears that it will be released sometime in March. The public beta version is available right now. The latest version of Apple’s operating system, iOS 14.5, is now available as a public beta. That means you can download it, but it may contain some bugs, as Apple is still working on it before its final release. We don’t recommend downloading any beta on the device you use regularly. To do that, go to beta.apple.com/sp/betaprogram, and click Sign Up.
Use Face ID on your Apple Watch to unlock your iPhone — even when wearing a mask; Set a default music player of your choice; Stream Fitness Plus workouts with AirPlay; App tracking transparency; Dual-SIM 5G global support; Siri updates; Console controller support
So they’ve completely bypassed the functionality of Face ID if it works with a mask.
Seems like cell phone innovations have peaked. Sad day when the highlighted feature is 217 new and useless emojis.
“I-phone” my a%^!!
Those are “We-Phones”...and u can assume its basically a one way old fashioned “party-line” with God only knows who else on the other end..but prolly DHS involved somewhere
I can finally have a non poop emoji of color. I haven’t been this excited since the wokester tyrants lynched uncle Ben from my rice box labels.
I have been reAding up on the lidar camera features and look forward to how I can use it for manufacturing. I have used photogrammetry I. The past but the equipment was in the 10/s of thousands at the time. If I can get it on a 1000 dollar pocket device and get 3d models that is a game changer for me.

It’s a game changer for small game asset prop creation.
Maybe it gets rolled out with skin tone detectors and Siri dialect matching analysis to determine your “whiteness” level. Social Fitness Scoring coming next after the coming ‘22 election thefts and Vaccination, Voting, and Party Fidelity Passports.
So, how do I copy contacts from my I phone to Outlook 365?
Emoji will replace western roman-script printing and handwriting will be a lost hobby. Add all the Egyptian Hieroglyphics and will have advanced to a 3000 BC level of culture.
Maybe the real goal is to get us all used to Chinese writing.
Really.
Hahahahahaa. Have fun with that.
Things I need from a phone.
Make calls.
Take calls.
Text.
More range.
More battery.
Internet capability.
Camera.
Anything beyond that I have no need for. I’ve got a Samsung 10 and 60-75% of what’s on that phone never get’s used.
I have hung onto my iPhone 6S for the home button with fingertip ID.
“I have hung onto my iPhone 6S for the home button with fingertip ID. “
Same here. Had it for many years. Only replaced the charging port which I bought from ifixit. Wife has the IPhone 10 which gives her nothing but grief.
Another 6S user here too.
I get the hand downs from the other half who is frequently having problems with the upgrades but mine just keeps on ticking.
