  @noname but still… It was annoying hearing my friends talk about it before apple did. I’m just happy to have that safety feature.

Imagine falling off a cliff in the desert and your iPhone says “Please enable SOS subscription to reach emergency services”

I don’t think a lot of people used it so they have to extend the trial until people start thinking they can’t live without it and then start charging. If they end it, people will just say meh and move on.

News Tells You What Happened. Drawing Shows You How It Felt | George Butler | TED

What does a war look like when you sit still long enough to draw it? Reportage artist and TED Fellow George Butler sketches the people that the news passes by: a 99-year-old survivor of the Holodomor famine in Ukraine, a man gathering books blasted into a rose garden, an architect whose home was hit by a Russian missile. Urging us to slow down in the age of immediate news, Butler shows how a drawing reveals what a headline can’t. (Recorded at TED2026 on April 16, 2026)
