What you say is not necessarily true, but I couldn't find anything that talks about how the connector that is mandated is chosen. It will be interesting to know how the connector is agreed upon and by whom.

I don't know if it's what the author of this comment meant, but iphone chargers have an USB plug and the charging cable is a USB - Lightning cable. But it's the case everywhere no?

I'm talking about integrity, not criminality though. They could have rolled out an update allowing users to install apps outside of the store instead of just removing the app from the store for example.

No it is not that obvious and that's my whole point. The real goal of their app store is not user convenience, security or safety, it's to be able to fully control what the user can and cannot do. They created the perfect environ

This is the definition of Integrity: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Integrity It means that whatever apple says, they are only driven by the market. Any stance they have on privacy or security is pure bullshit, they don

It does replace Jack and Pulse Audio as it implements its APIs. If you have pulse and pipewire running in parallel they will actually conflict. You can still have pulseaudio installed, but you can disable its daemon or socket so it doesn&#x

Pipewire is implementing Alsa, Pulse Audio and Jack already. I don't think alsa is going away but I can see Pulse Audio and Jack being replaced by it quite quickly.

Seems that the idea is to implement vscode APIs and use the vscode plugin host and backend system for extensibility.

I don't see why. Theorically it could benefit a lot of people and help community driven projects or companies wanting to provide long term support. For example, if you create a phone that relies on Qualcom socs, qualcom only provides a

There's actually more to take into account to push the subject a lot. The human on a bicycle also needs food and water to move the bicycle. Which is the more efficient at converting those resources into movement and in which scenario ?

It's not undeniable at all, you made an assertion without any base. This is far from being obvious, there's way too much things to take into consideration to be able to make such claim out of thin air.

I so wish that at least when a manufacturer stops supporting hardware, he has to drop source code of drivers and the firmware in the public domain.

I agree, it's impossible to look at a country alone in a world economy. Claiming that services like social media do not rely on higher consumption of raw materials is really far fetch. Good luck building growing a service like Facebook

That's far from being true. Installing software on Windows and Macos is a shitshow. Dealing with updates is such a pain that it built the habit of ignoring updates as much as possible by default. The only thing that made things a bit b

This is currently its big weakness in my opinion. Most of the problems that devs are facing with docker are not actually docker but this layer that tries to abstract the VM. So in the end, it's quite common that you have fix things in

I feel you, the tech space is way less exciting that it was decades ago. The last succesful communication standards are email, http and IRC. XMPP is succesful in a way that it's used behind the scene in a good amount of apps, but that

That's exactly what docker desktop does as well. A Macos or Windows client that runs docker in a Linux VM. There is a really limited concept of container on Windows, but it's far from being great and since not much people use Wind
