Oof and after they were trying to tell customers their batteries aren’t going to catch fire. Oof.

Also since the warehouse was closed at the time, it seems more likely a battery caught fire on its own.

I would do one last speed check at an off-peak time (if you haven’t already) and then bug the ISP about it

I just want iPhones precision finding feature. Give it UWB or Bluetooth 6’s channel sounding and I’ll buy it

Honestly cardboard and paper replacements have been working fine for everything except straws. Unless it can do that better I’m not seeing much point
