They didn’t need the army of lawyers to get license deals, so that’s not a fair comparison.

That’s intentional. Apple knows they won’t win in the long run, so their strategy is to delay the change for as long as possible.

He never was, that was just an excuse to amplify the voice of his far-right buddies.

Isn’t that a textbook antitrust violation?

Well, Microsoft is doing everything they can to get people to switch to Linux right now...

They did release him because they can’t do that. However, he then told his buddy that he’s going to flee the country, who then talked about that on his livestream. That's a new offense that lead to him being arrested again.

Yes, Putin has avoided those destinations so far. He even got warned by South Africa that they’d have to arrest him if he were to travel to a meeting there.

In addition to a very xenophobic culture that doesn’t allow the addition of missing working-age people via immigration.

If the requirements are the same as for iPhones, this change is entirely inconsequential, because Apple can just add so many hurdles to sideloading to make this infeasible.

This is almost certainly not intentional. The AI just can’t differentiate between unsafe as in NSFW and unsafe as in manual memory management.

The customers are paying the price, not them.

To everybody new to this topic, the doctors aren’t the good guys in this battle. They want to keep their wages up by limiting competition, while the country is suffering under a severe supply shortage already.

I don’t want to know what it does to a society when casually sniping 4 year olds is completely ok and accepted. After Gaza is razed, all of these soldiers will return as heroes, but will they be able to stop their habits?

I'll never understand why he intentionally let himself be captured by Russia. The outcome was inevitable.

Holy shit there are some bootlickers in the comments on that article.

For a middle class person, that’s equivalent of being sued for €1000, with a good chance of getting away with €100 even when losing. When will fines for big multinationals ever be adequate?

AI is just the name that journalists use for all algorithms these days.

When the Right talks about stopping immigration, that’s what they actually mean.

The main problem is that there’s no business case. It does not provide value to the company to delete your data, so why would resources be allocated to it?

The only solution is that the fines are higher than the costs for implementing a deletion process.

I think that we've reached the peak of that form factor. Every real change will have to deviate so much that we wouldn’t call it smartphone any more.

That has been happening for the last decade, but it’s really hard.

I just want an LLM with a reasonable context window so we can actually write real working packages with it.

The demos look great, but it’s always just around 100 lines of code, which is beginner level. The only use case right now is fake packages.

The NHS, wages and civil rights were all on the chopping block of the Tories for decades, and people still voted for them in droves.

Many US voters see Israel as the way to get to the end times, Judgement Day. Not doing whatever Israel wants is political suicide.

I remember Steve Jobs stating on stage that the protocol will be opened up when iMessage was revealed. Apparently this statement surprised the developers of it, because they didn’t know anything about that (based on some rumors).

Then that statement was silently ignored.

Would you pay for the missed income then? Who would?

Given the company's history towards repairability, you shouldn't buy one in the first place. They're a future doorstop.

That’s why I always remain buckled up during the flight.

It’ll settle somewhere around 3° to 5°, because that’s the point where the global economy collapses irrecoverably. There’s no other way that we’re going to get out of this.

As far as I have followed this issue, this is a US problem. Pharmaceuticals are treated very differently in Europe. For example, there’s no public ads for prescription drugs allowed, meaning that patients usually don’t push doctors to prescribe random stuff they've heard about on TV.

“Our children are tired of all the slaughtering, they need a break.”

You’re presuming a state of mind, just as the other people you’re arguing against are. We don’t know if they regret it or not and never will.

What's weird to me is that CEOs should know all about accounting and financials. He should have realized that this pricing model is unsustainable for most Unity developers, because many make less than what he's asking for per install themselves.

It's clear that professional CEOs don't know anything about tech, but this isn't a tech issue.

It also doesn’t preserve cookies after closing the window. I’m also curious what people expect that mode to do.

A lot of mental gymnastics going on there, I hope they don’t pull a brain tendon.

No, the referendum was non-binding, it was passed by executive action.

That’s why I always share individual windows, never the whole screen. My desktop is nobody’s business.

Isn’t lemmy basically that, but with modern technology? PHPBB was a nightmare for a sysadmin.
