This lack of backups makes Signal less appealing to anyone who isn't a security/privacy enthusiast/nut. 99+% of people want their messages to work and not lose them when their phone is broken.

I know they are saying they are going all in with PWAs, but native apps really are nice on mobile and it would be interesting to see an API/App story to go along with this.

So you want to fix two hugely complicate systems where any change is hard at the same time? Good luck!

The other way to look at this is that they failed to make the Mac Pro enough better than the Mac Studio or laptops to make it worthwhile. Graphics cards are one of the biggest use cases for PCIe slots and is something that Apple doesn'

No, the person asserted that they aren't connected, and then offered lots of words about how they aren't connected, without actual good explanations as to why we should believe that assertion. So, what you are saying is that they

The security BS was being sold by a sibling company, heck, the person responding is a high up in both companies. And there is a lot of evidence of them being connected to the malware vendor. If they can't rebut those concerns/conn

The thing is that it wasn't a comprehensive answer. It was a wall of text that attempted to appear like it was giving an answer while not actually clarifying anything. As a CA, even a hint of malfeasance should require in depth transpa

Or anyone with a couple brain cells to rub together. I mean, sure, they might not be related and this is all a huge misunderstanding, but CAs should be trusted beyond any doubt and Trustcor isn't even close.

You are aware that Truth is an absolute defense against libel, right? TrustCor would have to prove that WaPo acted with actual malice to get anywhere with a suit.

Making use of tax "loopholes" isn't even in the same universe as selling this kind of BS security snake oil and malware.

You could keep crows away from an entire field with the number of times you've trotted out that strawman. Just leave it be.

Anyone responsible for running a CA with a root cert should be willing to answer any reasonable question that the public can dream up. The fact that they were unwilling to provide basic information is a huge red flag.

Because her responses is a good part of the reason that the CA that she owns got nuked from orbit.

Mac Mini is capped at two external displays. The 13-inch Air and Pro are capped at one external display since it has a built in display. The 14- and 16-inch Pros support 3+ displays and the built in.

That 2 bedroom apartment costs way more than my 5 bedroom house that is ~420 m2. Housing prices in some places are crazy.

Why not? Seriously, what is your proposal for how it should work? Presumably the people renting the housing would have bought it themselves if they had the financial resources to do so (unless they just like having housing with no real down

Who literally saved Apple from their attempted corporate suicide? Yeah, I think he is a good example of why you need a strong founder sometimes.

Don't own one but the reporting has been solid that USB-C charging is still available and that the magsafe cable just has USB-C on the other end.

I'm all for making it as difficult as possible for the adtech people to get their claws into it, but, at least IMO, this is way over the line into making things worse for end users. Most sites shouldn't be multimedia extravaganza,

And Gemini being its own stand-alone thing that is different from everything is a serious hindrance for people to try it. I've read Drew's stuff for a while and even wanted to test out Gemini out of interest, but it is really anno

I could rephrase that to “I’ve seen zero good arguments”, but since I’ve read more arguments/comments/articles about this stuff than I can count over the last few years, I’m assuming that if there was actually a good argument I wo

They should have gone the other direction. There is zero good arguments for why Apple deserves 30% of gross transactions for ebooks, music, movies, etc that are merely purchased on their customer's phones.

Don't forget the company that made your car, the company that supplied gas for that car, the company that built the refrigerator that keeps your food cold, etc when you go get groceries. I think that comes to 90+% going to other compan

Just make that kind of thing illegal like so many other things around union elections and come down on them like a ton of bricks if they violate this. Both the employers and unions.

The article points out that Drew believes it isn't the case. Until this stuff is tested in court, there isn't a lawyer worth the name who would guarantee that. The language isn't precise enough to be 100% sure how courts will

Simple, have them create a user id, and/or expose a "support id" somewhere in the system that lets you tell the support person which account record is yours. I never want "communication" from an app developer unless
