How does it heal, does it still work 10+ years later? How many major OS updates did it get?

paraphrand,

Damn. The race to be first to report is a problem. It’s worse than the old race you see in movies and tv about broadcast news and newspapers.

paraphrand,

jesus christ, what’s that terrible noise?

paraphrand,

Like most things, it was nearly 30 years ago. So everyone acts like they can’t remember it.

Institutional knowledge is not something corpos seem to like anymore. That hampers next quarter thinking.

paraphrand,

Because Elon is a child.

paraphrand,

No, nothing like that. I’m just calling Elon a petulant man-child.

If you’re legit and not shitposting, or just looking for a reaction, I see where you’re trying to come from. (Namely the humanity in everyone)

It’s nearly impossible to express, with this guy, though. No one is going to view him as someone swept along by social structures and ideologies and the circumstances of his upbringing. Or something like that.

paraphrand,

Oof, the article goes on to say all the platforms failed. X just failed a bit more.

paraphrand,

Perfectly?

I guess we understand more about the brain than I thought. 🤔

paraphrand,

Wow. Let’s hear people just say they should “grow a thicker skin” and “block and move on” to this one.

Apple limits third-party browser engine work to EU devices (www.theregister.com)

The Register has learned from those involved in the browser trade that Apple has limited the development and testing of third-party browser engines to devices physically located in the EU. That requirement adds an additional barrier to anyone planning to develop and support a browser with an alternative engine in the EU....

paraphrand,

I assume they are doing checks of other things. Local software is not the same as a web service that is checking your IP for your location.

They could use location services, your registration country for your Apple ID, the sale location of your device, and other things. They could even aggregate indicators and use that.

Decentralized Systems Will Be Necessary To Stop Google From Putting The Web Into Managed Decline (www.techdirt.com)

Is Google signaling the end of the open web? That’s some of the concern raised by its new embrace of AI. While most of the fears about AI may be overblown, this one could be legit. But it doesn’t mean that we need to accept it....

paraphrand,

“Managed Decline” That’ll be big.

UFO Whistleblower Kept Security Clearance After Psychiatric Detention - The Intercept (theintercept.com)

The records were not confidential, medical, nor leaked. They are publicly available law enforcement records obtained under a routine Virginia FOIA request to the Loudoun County Sheriff’s Office and provided by the office’s FOIA coordinator. Copies of The Intercept’s correspondence with the sheriff’s office are being...

paraphrand,

I wonder if this will slowly morph towards Reddit/Lemmy structure. All the major platforms are becoming homogeneous as they chase each other.

paraphrand,

Lemmy on the ground with first hand reports!
