As it happens, every person is an influencer, regardless of followers (..) or content.

The people who are influenced, or said differently, the sphere of influence is dependant on random factors like content going viral when it unexpectedly gets liked and reposted by others.

If you're asking what size of influence generates income, the answer depends on who is paying.

When this was happening for me, it turned out to be an issue with the instance I was connected to. If I recall, an upgrade fixed the issues.

It doesn't. I recall an experiment a few decades ago where they turned the world upside down. Didn't take participants long to "normalise" the image.

When they removed the experiment, took even shorter to flip back.

I seem to recall it being done in a train carriage, as art, but I'm not sure.

The hidden content is a blessing in disguise. Consider it a walled garden that no longer is important in the scheme of things.

Just like you wouldn't click on a MySpace or Geocities link today, and like Reddit, Xitter is yet another site that came and went.

I've noticed a sharp increase in spam and I've been reporting each one simply as "spam".

I then block the user

Many of these posts have dozens of down votes.

Several go back months, which I discover when a new variant turns up.

I'm unsure if what I'm doing is helping or not, and as an ICT professional, I'm not sure why this obvious spam isn't caught earlier.

Saying the same thing as the text doesn't help anyone.

What can you tell us about your cat and what made it special to you? When was the last time it made you laugh?

Note that there is no calibration of audio hardware, so the level of usefulness of any such software would be strictly limited.

You can change how long a phone rings for. Talk to her telco for both landline and mobile.

In my experience, if someone doesn't want to answer the phone, strapping it to their arm is unlikely to make any difference and in my experience they're more likely than not to leave it on the charger.

Long battery life and tiny battery are on opposite ends of physics. Pick your poison.

Health monitoring is unlikely to be transmitted to emergency services, except iOS fall detection.

iOS and Android are both tracking as much as they can get away with.

Remote management is likely only with devices used in corporate settings.

According to my quick Google search, there are about 100 million people in Vietnam. The average wage is $150 per month. $12.5B shared among each person is $125.

Why not make her pay that amount instead of a death sentence?

It means:

"Take it back to the retailer and get your money back."

Or:

"Eat me for a personal food poisoning experience."

Take your pick..
