One function of R&D involves how to manufacture things cheaply, quickly + en masse. Those efficiencies that started with consumer drones now serve drones used in war. DJI being used at the start of the war is the evidence of that. Conti

Which then goes on to be repurposed into weapons of war. Something to think about if considering the purchase of a DJI drone.

It's easy to overlook the importance in outlining a process for evaluating each rung in the ladder. Adding this nuance to the question serves to invite deeper thought and avoid assigning a motivation-based rating (like when you give th

The deals for this type of product positioning occur quite high up in the chain. To give an example Yum! brands (KFC, Pizza Hut, Taco Bell, etc) was formed as a subsidiary of PepsiCo. Although PepsiCo has divested from Yum, their pre-existi

Yes I agree, and this would be the ideal and most efficient outcome, and it should be repeated: an EU-wide common standard, which can then be optionally adopted by businesses in each member state alongside not forbidding existing invoicing

It sounds like the gift card # is included as part of a police investigation (as you already know scams often use gift cards as payment) - which would explain Apple's inability to help you or provide information (because they would be

Yeah it seems odd, and if Apple won't tell him or do anything, it might be because they can't: such as circumstances of an active police investigation. We are obviously not going to get a fuller idea about this situation from a bl

Other major countries that have adopted eInvoicing have kept it optional for a few reasons: - It's a barrier for small businesses, or those which seldomly invoice, such as craft and hobby businesses (particularly remote online business

It's odd to celebrate having the key sanctions unwound. Before this ruling: 1. Apple were prohibited from charging any fee for external/referral purchases. Now this is once again allowed and the district court will work with all p

There are overwhelming dichotomous portrayals in this debate which gives me pause because there are entities who benefit from both sides of this debate, but neither would benefit with a sensible privacy-preserving solution. So instead of ad

I wonder if this will weaken Disney's suit against Midjourney. A tenant of seeking damages in a copyright complaint is the loss of control over how the intellectual property is used, and the potential damage done to the intellectual pr

I opened this article expecting to read that OpenAI was somehow delivering cash or in-kind payment to Disney as a means of appeasing the copyright beast. Colour me surprised to see that it's Disney that are handing out the cash in this

I have seen a swift uptick in "Australians" negatively posting on social media networks about the new restriction. Notably the central theme presented by these same "Australians" was that there should be no changes, limi

My first experience of copilot was learning that my Microsoft Office subscription was increasing in price. Then I dug a little deeper and saw that I could exclude it and go back to my old price. For what I do with office, I have no use for

It’s not my business: could someone shed light on how this would better serve their respective customers, versus keeping them separate. Or in other words “what will be possible by this merger that isn’t possible now?”

Except the bots.

Yeah we also need to get out of the dichotomous thinking that companies are either all good or all bad. Companies will do things that represent their interests, sometimes their goals align well with their customers, or the greater good, and

While AI is an example, it's an extreme one - the uniqueness here is that the AI companies have very large spend commitments that exceed expected cash generation, even under presumption of no faults and very strong revenue assumptions

Attributing it to private company behaviour really minimises what Valve chooses to do. Per your counter example: Epic Games has been having a very public meltdown this week regarding Steam's inclusion of Gen-AI labelling - here we have

nope, and arguing the point was anticipated. You've still not presented anything. You're free to suggest an alternative concept, and that would be discussed because this is a forum, and not a place to play transparent political ga

Keep in mind that the US stats are derived from cities that are designed around personal automobile transportation, so they're likely muted. Europe on the other hand has a much higher level of intermingling between pedestrians and vehi

I never said they didn't. They did, they announced they would, and it's now shipped. This entire thread is about whether or not they were forced to do so by the EU. As another dot point: We also don't have Margrethe Vestager

If the EU forced Apple to adopt Wi-Fi Aware then Apple would just fence it to EU users. The attempt of trying to paint this as a powerplay by the EU is tenuous: - Apple, along with Microsoft and Intel are founding members of the Wi-Fi Allia
