I can kind of see the benefits when it's a single person speaking from a podium. Everything else though is just awkward to frame properly.
At this point I'd that say getting enough individual countries is almost inevitable in the process of getting 1M signatures. If the distribution between countries remains as it is, every country with more than 25% right now would reach the threshold by the end.
Seems to me like the individual country threshold is only added to prevent initiatives getting single-handedly pushed by a single big country and never be the blocker for regular initiatives.
So yeah, the best strategy would most likely be to keep pushing the big countries: Germany, France, Spain and Italy. Speaking of Italy, what's up with them? Only 18%? Those are rookie numbers.
these keys allow anyone to [...] brick all r1s
the rabbit team is aware of this leaking of api keys and have chosen to ignore it.
Assuming that's true, then just bricking them all sounds like it might even be the ethically correct move.
It might take a lot more effort, but I don't think this will be the end. Google is required by law to label ads as such, giving these tools an opportunity to detect and skip them.
Recall won't take snapshots of [...] DRM-protected content.
At least the movie industry will survive this unscathed. Thanks Microsoft. 👍
Just to give a bit of context: This comes after two months of outright refusal to do even the bare minimum, like transferring the Steam Store listings for games where the devs had full ownership of the IP.
So yeah, it's nice to see that this will seemingly be resolved somewhat nicely, but that's about it.
People will turn everything into a Discord server nowadays, no matter how bad of a match it is. I've even seen a Github project disabling their Issue tracker in favor of Discord, which is completely insane to me.
The issue has now been commented on and was closed by the maintainer, where they explained why those blocks would be nonsense.
Hilariously, the issue creator still hasn't given up and is now trying to communicate with the maintainer privately. 🙃
I'd really want to know what's driving them. Surely no sane person would be this persistent without some ulterior motives?
Can't happen soon enough. Personally, I'd wish this would go much further and would allow every device to be flashable, with only a few exceptions for safety, like cars.
There's also a certain irony that certain other places will go to bat for right to repair, and then turn around and say "Actually, I want to live in a walled garden.", not realizing that these are two sides of the same coin.
Thankfully, while I have a smart plug from them, I've made sure that it's a Zigbee powered one, meaning it's directly connected to my Home Assistant server over it's own frequency/protocol, no app required. Guess that choice is paying off now.
Also, someone should tell whoever is managing that Twitter support account that you should never use the phrase "We're sorry you feel that way", even when you're going for a non-apology.
*different thing to VS for Mac, because Microsoft had to give three entirely different products the same name.
That's one thing I checked first, but compared to Germany for example, the average age and percentage of people playing video-games is apparently just a few percentage points of difference. Though "people playing video-games" could of course mean anything and I'd wager that the average person playing casual games on their phone might not care as much.
