This is slightly smarter. I have zero issues with people being addicted to whatever they want, so long as it doesn't negatively affect others. You do fentanyl in the privacy of your own home, then go to work in the morning? Cool.

Firefox, Graphene, Pixel, DDG, Proton, MS365, Rumble. 1/7 isn't bad, I guess.

If the green bubble (or teal bubble or whatever) works with iMessage, I will be happy. It's about the functionality, not the status symbol. For many people, it is about not looking like a brokie to their peers, and that's what app

No, Apple won't be charging for that service.

Group messages. RCS doesn't have a good solution for this.

Didn't find any with a cursory search, but the full trial is available on YouTube, and this particular argument is incredibly frustrating to watch. The judge should never have allowed it in.

Seriously, Apple would make absolute bank selling this exact service, even if it was restricted to blue bubbles, reactions, and high-quality media.

I saw the announcement on Twitter and came over here to talk about it. People are really excited about Beeper.

This is addressed in the announcement, beeper is happy to add a pager emoji to the message metadata to allow for identification.

You said nobody, I provided evidence that "nobody" is false.

There is nothing quite as hard as making a man understand something that his paycheck depends on him not understanding.

Apple disagrees https://www.zdnet.com/article/apple-confirms-imessage-locks-...

by rpmisms 3y ago
Yeah, not the point. The point is to prove that it's possible and relatively simple, and the only reason Apple operates this way is to lock people into the ecosystem.

Force Apple to either allow or implement iMessage interoperability via competitive tactics, not regulatory means.

I have a feeling they're not going to stop being a thorn in Apple's side for quite a while...

That's absolutely insane. Too bad prohibition created organized crime and gun control in the US.

The problem is that 99% of people will never read the TOS, period. South Park said it best in "Human Cent-iPad"

Destiny would be great as a non live-service game, too. Gameplay is great, and full sandbox PvP is actually fun.

So instead of the richest companies setting the standard for what a TOS contains.... The richest companies would formally set the standard for what a TOS contains.

I'm a major libertarian, and you have a great point. Apple should maintain their competitive advantage via technical means or let more cooks in the kitchen.

There is probably a tense debate happening internally right now about how they want to respond. PR says no, Product says nuke it, Legal is stretching their fingers, and Engineering just finished reproducing the issue.

Well, it works, and works extremely well. I'll be paying for this, simply because group chats are currently hell.

Agreed, just wanted clarification!

Can you say "Hi, I need XYZ"? Or are pleasantries forbidden?

5 over, maximum. I did 10 over by accident once. Motorcycles are exponentially more dangerous at speed, and I like being alive.

You'd pretty much have to repeal a ton of safety laws. Today's Tacoma is the size of an f-150 of 20 years ago, but still can't tow or haul as much. Gotta deliver practicality!

No, Cyberbeast has three motors, 200 more HP, and 2k more torque units.

For people who want some towing, some cargo, and good mileage. I've seen a couple landscapers using them. If you're towing a single mower and some trimmers/blowers, it's a good deal, and you can still take it into town a

You. I like you. I only have the M1 Air half of that, and I don't think my farm would fit in a trailer, but I appreciate the priorities.
