One common issue is to use rooted phones to automatically drive banking apps to commit fraud at scale. Create lots of fake accounts, bounce transactions, use them to automate phishing scams, etc. Massively harder to do that on a non rooted

They also famously manufacture the most stable and performant network cards, wifi card, thunderbolt controllers, etc. And provide drivers for Linux. Plenty of components for quivalents of which Avahi struggles with on MacBooks.

Yeah, they insist on that and then write long blog posts on how they have to reverse engineer basic things which have been contributed by other manufacturers to linux kernel directly.

Intel Corporation is indeed the largest corporate contributor of commits to Linux Kernel (outside individual contributors).

No MacBook runs for 27 hours even if it says so in spec sheet. My 16" doesn't come close to apple claims. (Did we really forget how inflated Apple battery claims really are?)

Are you... genuinely this naive and ignorant to what's happening in USA?

Going slow is an understatement - is it even being properly developed after the main personalities quit?

nVidia has provided feature parity for their GPUs between Windows and Linux for longer than even fglrx was a thing. Just because they don't give you all their source on command doesn't mean they weren't supporting Linux for d

Most HNers don't even understand what percentages are and throw out dumb statements like "mega corp can treat 1% of users like crap, it's a small number!"

Blatant lies about everything EU does have become pretty much a normal state of things on HackerNews and social media nowadays. There are millions of dollars (and rubles) pumped into anti-EU propaganda that fuel this.

No, we absolutely don't need to give more power to Orbans and other corrupt selfish pricks across Europe to line their pockets at everyones expense and the future of Europe.

Meanwhile in a neighbouring conversation thread people are attacking Van Der Leyen as she's at fault for democratic member states torpedoing the good approach. Apparently it's undemocratic when elected governments of their countri

They couldn't fix the problem because they were a corrupt country refusing to face their reality and which leadership decided to blame EU for not pumping more money into their pockets instead of fixing the structural problems of their

Funny how this questioning of democracy never shows up in topics about USA, UK or any other country - it's always EU that gets assaulted by sudden political theorists despite mirroring pretty much every other democracy on the planet.

Environmental laws ("The California Effect"), payroll laws, payment laws, rules about what to sell and where are also different, aren't they?

Except that US also has pretty fragmented state law, doesn't it?

> Early version of Android Auto could transfer over USB 2.0 instead of Bluetooth, which works, but it's not near as high bandwidth. This sentence doesn't make much sense - Auto (and CarPlay) still work in wired mode over USB 2.

How would you name them?

by izacus 2mo ago
They actually run over WiFi (WiFi direct IIRC) - Bluetooth is mostly just used as a setup handshake and to help the head unit decide which phone in the car should be the one connected.

That's not really how latency works though.

Did clearing rate crater because there was a change or because the police is throwing a toddler tantrum strike and refuses to work? Since outright refusal to do their jobs is more common than any real difficulty.

Or you can just plug things into HDMI port without dongles.

Which part of "because the device doesn't have a DP port" is not enough for you? You can't picture such devices or what's the holdup?

Enough people that even great Apple got FOMO after this market.

So you're saying Google should stop open sourcing Android? That should like a bad incentive to make to defend Apple.

They also completely fail to ask for the reasons of better well-being and then the article just starts guessing.
