Here's hoping the EU just says no to this bull that Apple are coming up with. The so called "core technology" is sold by Apple to the user in iOS.

And anyway, it's a bad comparison, there is a conspiracy that, say Google or Firefox is collaborating, but it's very clear that yandex is an arm of the Russian government

There is a big difference between a government that is ultimately on your side. And a government that is actively trying to kill you.

Yet another win for Brexit

I think lock-in (iMessage and such) better explains apple's growth, and an unlimited marketing budget

Notarization is also optional, annoying as a user, sure, but still optional

You've chosen to let the Russians spy on your web browser?

A lot of cars do have a numeric display, and yea, it's great

Why could you not use percentage for fuel levels? The voltage has been calibrated for the guage, no reason to think you could calibrate a conversation to percent

This seems crazy, from a security point of view, even just basic level, like my kids walking off with it
102.

Possibly, given people are (to some level of course) basically fine, having someone walk off with your phone unlocked could have pretty annoying consequences at a time when you'd really rather not deal with them

What about FAA execs? This is their job to make sure this cannot happen
104.
by mcfedr 3y ago
That's surely more about convience, i.e. no one in Europe wants to actually deal with Russia so will faff around pretending they don't know who did it as long as possible

CGNAT means you don't have an internet routable IP, so you have no way of hosting something anyone can access without some external proxy, such as cloudflare or tailscale

The house is incapable of passing the most basic of funding for national security to let Ukraine win the war, let alone something even slightly controversial

Does he control the federal agency? He would appoint the leadership

Wow thats crazy most refunds here (UK) take 1-2 days max

Crypto doesn't add anything to this situation a normal business can do it. PayPal, Venmo etc

I think the network issues you mentioned are relatively simple engineering issue, you can easily hire and delegate. Banks have the issue with delegating power to give you money. From a distance I'd guess there is a real advantage to bu

That is part of the problem though. With petrol, you can hop into anyone old car, and go where you want, as much as you want. With 5 minute stops every few hundred miles

I'm driving a 900£ focus, cost me 200£ to service once a year, otherwise it's just ticking a long great...

Given how rare this is, using https seems like a great idea

I get all of that, it made sense. But similarly, it's no longer the world we live in, and there is just no excuse for FedEx's own app not to be able to push directly to the system where the same app gets tracking info from

I tend to fine that people on the phone are clearly not given the tools they need to find what's going on and certainly not any power to actually fix a problem, it's always very frustrating

by mcfedr 3y ago
Yep DPD definitely lead on the recieving end, I always fine the Americans, FedEx and ups to be by far the worst on that end.

That setting window.. whilst I don't really think swift UI has anything to do with.. it's just so awful, lifted right out of ios, where it is also just awful. As an android user, I don't understand how people put up with that
