Sad… I played Kings Quest VI on an ipad with this emulator and it workers great. Why does Apple even care if a few people play some old abandonware on an ipad?

What an overtly political move by Bezos. He could have donated to libraries, schools, medical research … nope donates to defacto narrative control.

The benefit would be they could still market the device and the most “secure” but at the same time duck pressure from governments to allow back door access. If Apple truly secured the OS to the point where even state level actors could not

Has the list of 50,000 phone numbers been released to the public?

I am not convinced apple wasn’t aware of what NSO was doing? Governments want access to spy on people. Apple wants to market and sell a “secure” mobile device. In a way NSO provides apple with a perfect out. They can legally claim they are

Sadly lots of today’s “research” meets this low threshold. Lots of politicized headlines use low quality research to push narratives. #depressing

Exactly when I was poor in my late teens and early twenties I pirated lots of games and software (adobe, etc). Now in my 40’s I purchase all games and make it a point to support developers. Now with a good job and financial stability I hav

Terrible decision IMO. To default to application level DNS that then defaults to a large centralized DNS provider is the opposite of supporting an open and decentralized internet. This should be an optional feature that is Opt in. Instead

“The current evidence against Ivermectin is pretty overwhelming, just look at the Wikipedia article.” Again your comment is oddly dismissive. Evidence is showing that Ivermectin appears to be an effective treatment. No conspiracy or anti-

Your comment seems oddly dismissive (IMO). Ivermectin is widely available and yes granted more research is likely needed however early indicators show it be an effective treatment. Not a facebook paranoid conspiracy miracle cure. Perhaps a

Except google gets the source code first and then creates custom specific APK’s. Not sure this step is really “needed”.

“ the ends justify the means.” I do agree that this sentiment now extends to almost all power and influence institutions. News outlets produce stories solely as a commodity to influence behavior on behalf of large corporations (paid) or gov
