They’re either voting for the person with the R or the D next to their name. Policies don’t actually matter.

Detachable controllers are one of the good points of the switch as well. Definitely think that idea should spread.

I would argue that win 10 that’s been working on there for a long time will also run like a charm. Or enough of a charm that they won’t care to change it. And if it starts throwing errors, preventing the from doing things they want, or breaking down, they’ll just think it’s the machine and replace it. Most people don’t think of OS and Machine as separate, independent things.

It’s also a pay to win + subscription game full of micro transactions.

The proposed class action comes after Apple scrapped a controversial CSAM-scanning tool last fall that was supposed to significantly reduce CSAM spreading in its products. Apple defended its decision to kill the tool after dozens of digital rights groups raised concerns that the government could seek to use the functionality to illegally surveil Apple users for other reasons. Apple also was concerned that bad actors could use the functionality to exploit its users and sought to protect innocent users from false content flags.

Honestly, if they eat this $1.2B fee and chalk it up to standing up for user’s privacy, this is a massive win for them.

I wonder if it has exceptions for MAGA hats and flags and ties made in China?

It’s too late. The Republicans already have their story, inconvenient facts don’t matter. The people who care about its real origins aren’t the ones making laws.

You don’t need price fixing for any industry to go this direction. Take the gas station idea. You’ve got a corner with 4 gas stations. Each one can see the traffic the other ones get and can easily see how much they charge. All it takes is them saying “well, people are still buying gas at that station for $X more than mine, so I’ll charge that as well. And soon they’re all skyrocketing to whatever the consumers can afford.

Calling a group put on Price Fixing requires proving they colluded together to do so, but that’s not required in this scenario. Every landlord can see how much other rents are and if they can make more money and keep their renters or get new ones, they will push that limit. And honestly if they can raise it enough to cover some vacancies they’ll do that, charging 30% more but having 10% empty is still a net 20% in their pockets.

And while the AnandTech staff is riding off into the sunset, I am happy to report that the site itself won’t be going anywhere for a while. Our publisher, Future PLC, will be keeping the AnandTech website and its many articles live indefinitely. So that all of the content we’ve created over the years remains accessible and citable.

This is such a big thing. Losing access to content is something we’re seeing en masse and future historians and hobbyists greatly appreciate having historical articles accessible and not lost to the sands of time. I think it would be even better if we could all torrent and archive as well, but accessibility and continued access is appreciated.

Previously, Tesla owners simply had to go to their mobile apps to pay and unlock the extra range.

God, I hate this timeline.

I can’t wait for Gemini to point out that in 1998, The Undertaker threw Mankind off Hell In A Cell, and plummeted 16 ft through an announcer's table.

That would be a perfect 5/7.

Same here. Haven’t been back since Apollo shutdown.

Honestly at this point, I’m not sure I’m missing out. Lemmy has been great so far and it’s only getting better.
