I was in a computer store a few years ago watching a young guy trying to sell a tablet to an older woman. He said “the good news about this is that it can’t get viruses because it runs apps”.
everyone knows viruses are allergic to apps
Ill bet anything they laughed about that in the breakroom
If you assume that she will only install official apps, that they are sandboxed and Apple doesn’t allow viruses in App Store apps, then that statement seems fine to me.
Every networked computer has some risk of getting a viris of course.
I mean yeah like you can be a pedant about it but all in all its a statement that makes sense. Apps on both android and ios are very sandboxed, even if you go out of your way to install malware there’s very limited damage it can do, barring zerodays in the sandboxing itself.
Tztztz…didn’t he know that a full virus protection is only achieved when you run apps that run ads?
Let me start a team for my team in Teams.
Does the team for your team have a theme in Teams yet?
If you don’t know how to set up themes in Teams, you can ask Tim from the theme team on Teams.
Tim’s tin themed teen team.
Don’t get me started on the difference between a group and a Group…
You can probably add “website” to the list.
Hm, this one intrigues me: what is commonly referred to as a website, without actually being a website?
I think they meant all of the apps that are just a website with a wrapper.
This infuriates me to no end. I have a web browser thank you
Well, and there’s also just lots of webpages implemented as an SPA – Single-Page Application.
Which you might be able to register in your browser as a PWA – Progressive Web App.
And which are just generally equally as interactive as an app, so good luck explaining the difference to folks who don’t care about implementation specifics…
A webapp. Or the <use our app instead> apps.
Then: w4r3z, appz.

I thought it was activation before the iPhone existed
Activation fees certainly did.

You’re not even right. You are genuinely activating the SIM card and anyone around you paraphrasing to “activating a phone” is also correct, because nobody cares what other meaning you personally wish to ascribe to the task.
