I don't know, sticking it to a MagSafe puck? I'm not even sure how they would do it. But yeah, obviously that's a trailing indicator, not a leading indicator. But yeah, wires are still pretty prevalent in popular media.

Yeah, if you want to know how they could get to no cable in a way that is not controversial to people – Rather than thinking of advances in wireless technology, what you have to do is fast forward to the point where – I mean who knows if we'll get this far. But if silicon continues to advance and we don't – and the wall that we know we're inevitably going to hit is farther out than we think it is.

You could get to the point where the total amount of energy inside a phone in the battery, you know, for all day battery life is just lower. And then you don't need like advances, super advances and charging technology. Use the same stupid inductive coils we have now. But because you're filling a battery that's a quarter of the size. All these issues become much less. Right.

And if you have solid state batteries and they charge really fast, like I think that's how you would get to it. It would essentially require advances, continued advances in silicon, which are slowing rapidly, as we all know, and also advances in battery technology.

And then we get to the point where it's like, OK, well, all those issues they used to talk about, about charging your phone and heat or whatever. That's ridiculous because now it charges in 35 seconds off of an inductive coil. Nobody cares.

sure how they're going to do this because i think the way google did it like you essentially need key exchange servers like essentially the servers that apple runs for imessage that handle like negotiations between the parties and sort of like allow the intent encryption to happen right they're not they can't obviously they can't see or infiltrate it that's the whole point but you still need kind of like a middle party to mediate the exchange and so google has that so if you're doing like android rcs from another android phone it goes through google servers just like imessage goes through apple servers but it doesn't help

When you're using RCS between an iPhone and an Android phone, you don't get the encryption there. So the GSM Association is coming up with a standard for this, but then who's going to run the servers? Like, does Apple stand up its own sort of RCS key exchange servers? Does Google open up its servers to everybody? Do the carriers run the servers?

I'm not quite sure how this is going to work, but it's good to see that they're working on it a little bit. It would be better if the RCS standard came out of the gate with a solution to this problem, but it absolutely did not. I want to ask Casey, though, because I think you're the main one who has complained about having conversations with Android people and dropping messages and everything.

Have you actually used RCS to your knowledge? And is it better than it was when you were just using SMS?

There's also some confusion about when the iOS messages app shows RCS like as placeholder text in the text field to tell you that it's RCS. But in some cases, it's not really RCS. It might just show that now, even when it's just doing MMS stuff. I don't know. There's some confusion about that. But anyway, good luck in getting everyone upgraded and let us know if that improves your life.

I mean, the big thing is the images aren't terribly overcompressed thumbnails.
