this argument doesn't work, because you could always argue that the consumer chose this product, and thus its features and practices should be allowed. Apple had it coming for a long time already, one way or another. And Microsoft also

Things like bitcoin still exist, which still use PoW afaik

In the past, ublock origin worked for yt. Though if they add in-stream ads it probably will fail.

It blocks anything you want based on your settings. Yes, also trackers.

and this would be better how?

or maybe you need to touch some grass.

Pretty sure they are very far from the norm, in % of Mac users

Wow looks cool. Now if only it could be used in Firefox. And yeah I know it doesn't have some chrome-only things. But afaik that's mostly because google/chrome does what ever they want, and there is no such thing as standards

Yeah but the author went from typescript to rust… what did they expect.

What do you mean by that? There was some stuff re widevine circumvention on GitHub at some point, but not sure if that counts as introspector/sidestepper

The blog is wrong, I think they did object afaik, the blog (and others) just think they should have objected more strongly or not implemented it.

But it’s not related to this story. Nobody prevents you from using services that do not operate like signal (and esp with desktop it is now very easy to backup your messages) Just use those. This is just about whether sth like signal should

Thanks for no account and not doing subscription

But many ads and crap today are actually not traditional ads. Don’t they count? If not, then gpt generated text ads or whatever will become more prevalent

It’s the tech (investor) bro appeal

Unfortunately that’s hard to write in a way that’s interesting, or at least that’s my interpretation. Maybe it would read too much like political and economic theory. And then in the cases where it is done it either leads to things like ‘ge

This so much

Yeah and especially in combination with the additional inquiry directly before release and the her tweet… looks awfully deliberate

lol and you think that’s getting better with the whole team gone?

Well, or it is just memorizing mappings. Not like as in reproducing, but having vectors similar to mappings that it saw before.

Actually apple should have most incentive to make it reliable, as they sell least amount of other stuff based on ads and recommendations, afaik.

Yes, but it at the very least delays any findings while you rake in the cash and try to create a favorable environment. OpenAI even stated that think using copyrighted texts is necessary and should be covered by fair use.

It also means I need to pair, and deal with all the hassle that brings. Much easier to just plug the unify dongle in somewhere rlse

I care less about vulns, more about it actually working properly first. And for that, Bluetooth is bad. And pairing is pain.

Not only on Linux.

by fl0id 3y ago
You should also define what you want. For someone to be a good fit, smart (for whatever that means) is not enough.

But it would still be Bluetooth…

Well you just a sweeter your own question. They may not want the UI, but to function the same you need the UI. Do this only strengthens the argument you replied to

This a lot. They aren’t optimizing for the user most likely.
