Apple seems to be moving away from trying to sell more iphones and instead in to getting iphone users to buy more kinds of things. You now have AirPods, the Apple Watch, and a million other things which each can last quite a while but add u

Is it possible to make a cable safe enough for people to be holding at 100kv?

I just checked again and the firefox one looks so close to the native right click that I can hardly tell the difference other than it not supporting dark mode

How is imessage so hard to reverse engineer that its easier to send someone a jailbroken iphone to use? Surely the protocol can't even change much since many users are stuck on old versions as its part of the OS.

Why would chat apps need to support old clients? If facebook pushes out an update almost every user will have it on day one and every user will 1 month on. They can just show an error banner to users who have automatic updates turned on.

I'm not even convinced they decided it was more profitable. The decision probably went something like this: Manager: Our users want this feature Developer: We can't add that because it will cause incompatibility with XMPP clients

POSIX certification is about as useful as a keyboard with a "windows 10 compatible" sticker. Useful for marketing purposes only.

It seemed to have a semi decent crawler and p2p system but it was beyond useless for searching. It was like using grep to search the internet. I just searched "youtube" and the first 10 pages would be random blogs that mention the

Macbooks almost never have seamless wifi experiences on linux. At best you will have to manually install a wifi blob and for the newer ones the advice is to just get a wifi usb.

I wonder if this means there will finally be a way to use things like spotify and netflix on ARM linux machines.

I'm using firefox on macos right now and I can't see what the issue is. The the menus show up in the main top bar like every other app. Am I missing something?

Even his mid event video was the same. A quick "you need to go home" sandwiched between minutes of babel about how he thinks they are doing the right thing and that he loves them.

Its basically the same as a torrent or a public key. You have to first trust the source of the IPFS hash but if you trust the hash you can trust the content downloaded with it. If for example NYT tweeted an IPFS hash, you could trust the co

Last time I checked you had to have a server updating the IPNS entry daily or it would expire. Is this still the case?

The fork from blink was so long ago its pretty much irrelevant now. Google likely spends more dev hours on it than apple does on webkit these days.

I wonder why Mozilla even bothers with these kinds of posts. I doubt a single person in the world cares about getting political opinions from their web browser so these kinds of posts just dirty their image.

The future is probably going to involve simply having all cameras on the streets look out for the numberplate as soon as its reported missing.

The internet becomes more and more important each year. Before the internet had pictures it didn't matter if you got kicked off. The main problem imo is that you simply can not get a website on the internet without using someone elses

Your last option is a tor hidden service which could only be shut down if the government is against you and even then it can be difficult. I guess it does make your site inaccessible to regular users though.

They released a post saying they don't think there is any point blocking legal but nasty sites because their service is easily replaced. Its a lot easier to switch cdn than server host or get back in to the app store

The variable naming thing seems like total bullshit but when I find a song I like too much I find it can be distracting. When I'm feeling most productive I hardly notice the music thats playing.

I find it to be the reverse. A tap on my wrist is actually less distracting because I don't have to grab and unlock my phone to see what it is. Its just a quick flick of my eyes down to see if its important. The watch also uses differe

Facebook bans accounts with fake info. They are pretty good at it too. I assume they simply use the contact info the scraped and look for your name in your friends contact lists.

I have found it almost pointless to try listing stuff for less than $50 because you get loads of non committal people messaging you and then not picking up the item. I tend to just list stuff for a price and then accept any counter offer re

I have never heard of Cardano and Ethereum seemed to market itself as a way to run the internet and government inside of blockchain while the reality was it was never used for anything but speculative investment. Cryptos have basically burn

Its technically very simple but politically very difficult. The point I am making is that the power usage is not directly tied to transactions. Not making a transaction on the blockchain will not save X watts because that power is burned re

I don't have proof for the larger community but I was very interested in bitcoin at 2012-2015 and it really did seem like it was going to be a real alternative, all the big companies were starting to accept bitcoin but now its all gone

The true statement is "We consumed this amount of power and were able to process this amount of transactions" but the power usage does not scale with transactions. You could increase the block size and get far more transactions wi

This is probably the most interesting thing I have seen in a long time. This just seems like something that simply shouldn't be possible. I tried looking up more info but most of the results are this guy. Does anyone know if it really

Its difficult to find the details on this because these companies are so secretive, but from everything I have seen, the e paper technology we have is completely useless for anything but displaying mostly static content. The refresh time is
