This is like when you’re speaking in a foreign language with a friend and getting along fine, but in the next sentence they begin describing brain surgery or nuclear physics, and your understanding falls off a cliff.

Or that time I tried to interpret a conversation about blast furnace renovations.

As far as jailbreaks go, I’m sad it’s not a thing anymore; I don’t think I ever did anything useful with my jailbroken iPad, but it was fun. Today I’d install a tethering app and UTM + a JIT solution (1).

1: SideStore looked promising, but my account was once a paid Apple Developer account and I have 10 app IDs that won’t expire, so I can’t install any apps like the aforementioned UTM, unless I make a new account or pay again.

I had my old iPhone 4 jailbroken and it was literally the only way I would use an iPhone as my main device. Having lost that, I switched back to Android which had caught up in many basic features by then.
