I think you can install root certificates on iOS using .mobileconfig profiles, so this issue should be possible to fix.

> you can install one of the numerous alternative browsers that are available and updated for iOS 12 Those "browsers" are more like skins, they can't actually modify how websites are rendered or how JavaScript is executed.

All of which run WebKit under the hood and can not implement support for optional-chaining on their own as that is a JavaScript engine thing which they can't touch.

Not really, you can only do that for 7 days at a time, unless each device owner pays $99 yearly, and even then there's no simple and obvious way to do it.

What happened in this article reinforces my belief that devices marketed as "general purpose" devices _must_ allow users to, in some way, run their own software on them "unrestricted" (standard sandboxing of course, most

Or Loopring, Arbitrum, Polygon, Optimism. Complete Ethereum L1s move to Proof of Stake, and use one of the above for actual transactions and you have a super fast decentralised way of making transactions that's orders of magnitude more

I can't believe I've never considered this. They really should have a "custom" option in there as well. Is it possible to do using .mobileconfig profiles maybe? (Off topic: Is there a specification somewhere on what'

I'm not dismissing the issues with the waste. Co2 however is a much larger issue in the short term.

Yes, however it's pretty certainly going to be a part of the final answer to that question. Thus we're still going to want local datacentres, but maybe we will require that they are run by EU headquartered companies that don'

I really wish hydro/wind/solar were enough to power our modern society, and I hope it gets there eventually, but the reality is that it isn't enough to meet our current (and expanding) demands. The short term answer nobody se

I found that article as well, it cites no numbers, and according to Vattenfall the plan is for an additional 600MW by 2023... Hardly enough given everything discussed here. https://group.vattenfall.com/se/nyheter-och-pr

It is true that we have a lot of hydro power, however it is pretty much fully utilised as it stands (they're talking about hundreds of additional MW when they talk about expansion, which will not do much in the grand scheme of things),

Yeah sure, and for most things it's fine if things break, irritating and bad press, but fine. Things like calling emergency services can never be allowed to break. It must have fallbacks, if it even needs to be allowed to be overridden

This is not true. Apple can absolutely (but probably won't, as unfortunate as that is - and I hope I'm wrong on this) build APIs for hooking into the views used in the current system, while the actual transactions happen outside o

Point 2 can not be optional, 6 will for sure attract further regulation (as it should). The rest seem reasonable to me!
