    This is still a struggle today.

    Want to put a file on your iPhone or iPad from a non-mac? Good luck without some 3rd party app.

      Great point. It's infuriating that the only inbuilt non-Apple remote file access method in iOS is SMB3, for example.

      Edit: downvotes? Is my technical information out-of-date or something?

        On my Linux installation, I just plug it in, "trust" the PC, and I can open it in my file explorer as I would any other USB storage device. Do you need a 3rd party app to do that on Windows?

          What is your secret? I’ve tried this myself and nothing happens when I plug it in. Arch with KDE here.

            Use the serial port, both have them, and this would probably work with 600 to even 1200 bits per second.

            I prefer 300 baud because you can distinctly hear if the bitstream is correct

                More or less, yes. But I have heard more than enough of this sound to last a few lifetimes.

                    wouldn't it be great if when we think of something in the past, we could also smell what it smelt like

                      Good luck doing any file management on an iPhone or iPad tbh. Tech companies nowadays seem desperate to make people forget how computers work.

                          Saudade - A word in Portuguese and Galician denoting an emotional state of melancholic or profoundly nostalgic longing for a beloved yet absent someone or something. It derives from the Latin word for solitude. It is often associated with a repressed understanding that one might never encounter the object of longing ever again. It is a recollection of feelings, experiences, places, or events, often elusive, that cause a sense of separation from the exciting, pleasant, or joyous sensations they once caused. Duarte Nunes Leão defines saudade as, "Memory of something with a desire for it".

                            The printed sheets on the wall looks a bit too good as well.
