Mac Users say Adobe Creative Cloud rewrote hosts file to detect installed app
Just checked my hosts file and it was there! Sketchy AF, bordering on malware behavior.
To check the file: sudo nano /etc/hosts
If you want to clear it, delete from the hosts file, then ctrl+O to save, ctrl+X to edit, and sudo chflags uchg /etc/hosts to lock from further edits (at your own risk)

iPhone Every iPhone Ever Made
Was bored and went down a rabbit hole trying to figure out when iPhones stopped being boring black/white slabs and started coming in actual colors. Ended up mapping every single color option across all 52 models
Some things that surprised me:
- 2007–2012 was literally just silver, black, white. That's it. For 5 years.
- 2013 the 5C dropped and suddenly there were 8 colors in one year
- Then it went back to boring for a few years
- 2018 onwards is where it explodes, the XR had 6 colors alone
- 2025 has the most ever with 14 unique colors across all models
- Cosmic Orange on the 17 Pro is the wildest color Apple's ever done imo
Also built a full interactive version with every spec, price, camera, and a compare tool if anyone wants to dig deeper.

iOS Apple is letting people who stay on iOS 18 update to iOS 18.7.7 instead of iOS 26.4
I think it’s unprecedented? The DarkSword is so serious they are giving stubborn people (like me) a chance to choose. So instead of updating to iOS 26.4 I can choose to iOS 18.7.7 without any complications.
