No, but they want to seem cool

And they’ll use Grok to write the code anyway 😂

Or Rust

Rewrite it in Rust has gone too far 😆

Maybe Nintendo, Sony and MS will be next?

I want a 3rd party store on all my consoles, why can’t I?

So will the Italian government provide an Official List of Pirated Content or do the VPN providers need to determine it manually?

I paid for (the license to view) the books already, so I’m getting epubs from z-library without the slightest bit of moral pain.

I could do the calibre decryption thing, but meh.

Engagement is eyeballs looking at ads

Engagement.

It’s all they measure, what makes people reply to and react to posts.

People in general are stupid and can’t see or don’t care if something is AI generated

The instagram reels and YouTube shorts algorithms are utter shit. I’ve tried, but holy shit there’s some crap in there.

It’d be cheaper to buy a power bank for every person in the house vs this abomination

This doesn’t even replace the phone battery, it changes an external charging case.

We have these in bars etc, they let you rent a charged power bank. This is just that with added complexity.

Imagine being an openly gay CEO who funds a party who hates gays

The best bit is that Blu-ray supports “online content” so they can update the forced intros and trailers to fresh ones!

It does now, it didn’t at the time

We could’ve burned that bridge when we got to it. If Apple would’ve been allowed to implement on-device scanning, they could’ve done proper E2E “we don’t have the keys officer, we can’t unlock it” encryption for iCloud.

Instead what we have now is what EVERY SINGLE other cloud provider is: they scan your shit in the cloud all the time unless you specifically only upload locally-encrypted content, which 99.9999% of people will never be bothered to do.

The irony is that the Apple CSAM detection system was as good as we could make it at the time, with multiple steps to protect people from accidental positives.

But, as usual, I think I was the only one who actually read the paper and didn’t go “REEEE muh privacy!!!” after seeing the headline.
