It wouldn’t surprise me if someone is copying questions into a GDoc for him and then he’s dictating the replies in the GDoc, so they’re using a Q/A format. These don’t read as prepared answers to me.

I disagree. It sounds like he’s shooting from the hip to me. If there’s a crisis PR person there, they’ve faked it until they made it.

The Apollo dev “joked” that Reddit should buy Apollo for $10 million dollars because, according to Reddit’s pricing of their API, the opportunity cost of Apollo existing to Reddit was $20 million.

Reddit bought Alien Blue, which functionally was the Apollo equivalent in 2014, with the intention of using it as their new official app. Instead they jerked around the developer, ditched all the code, and shut down the app in 2016.

It pisses me off that NYC still allows through-wall PTAC units to be installed in new buildings. PTACs are the combined heat/AC units you will find in cheaper hotels/motels. They are installed through giant 4ft x 2ft holes that ar

It’s possible to do playback controls on UAC 2 devices. The audio device needs to report a 2nd interface to the host for an HID device which can then send forward HID media key events like a USB keyboard. I’d wager this is how AOA v2 handl
