Hi! 👋 Here's our #introduction. We're BBC Research & Development; we explore and test new technology to discover how the BBC can best make use of it in the future. For 100 years our engineers have been at the forefront of developments in broadcasting. We're now researching how everyone could get TV & radio via the internet...
For anyone as confused as I was: yes, this is indeed a link post on lemmy.world pointing to an article on kbin.social hosted by kbin.projectsegfau.lt and ultimately linking to social.bbc.
"Apple is aware of a report that this issue may have been actively exploited against versions of iOS released before iOS 15.7," the company says when describing Kernel and WebKit vulnerabilities tracked as CVE-2023-32434 and CVE-2023-32435.
Square Enix revealed that it is developing a new game in the Dragon Quest Monsters spinoff game series to commemorate the 25th anniversary of the game series.

Starting with iOS 17, iPadOS 17, and macOS Sonoma, users with an Apple ID will automatically be assigned a passkey, allowing them to sign into their Apple ID with Face ID or Touch ID instead of their password.
If the BIOS says it supports Modern Standby, Windows takes it at its word and completely disables the ability to enter S3 sleep (classic standby). There’s no official or documented option for disabling Modern Standby through Windows, which is incredibly annoying.
Side note: for a while, there was actually a registry setting you could change to disable Modern Standby on the Windows side. Unfortunately, Microsoft removed it, and to my knowledge, has never added it back.
I'm not a Windows user, so I can't confirm one way or the other, but toward the end of the end of the article the author gives vendor-specific instructions for disabling the S0 Low Power Idle capability from BIOS.
Like the other replier and GP, my Linux and Mac desktops run for months at a time without a restart. I only restart when there's a software update that demands it. I don't have much experience with modern Windows, but I expect that's the norm from a modern OS.
If you're running into runaway resource issues like this then you may want to spend a few minutes hunting them down and maybe replace the programs responsible. Daily restarts shouldn't be necessary.
From the title I was hoping for an investigative piece on Apple's payment model and whether it treats classical musicians any better, but it's just a comparison to other streaming services padded with trademark New Yorker bloviation.
tl;dr: they don't like Apple's editorials, prefer Idagio's search results, and everything invented after the phonograph was a mistake.
I like the mini but this table highlights its major disadvantage. I still find its battery ample for a typical day, there's just not a lot of headroom for degradation.
Apple may not be as flashy as other companies in adopting artificial intelligence features. Still, the already has a lot of smarts scattered throughout iOS.
I use RSS very selectively, though. General news sites are too much of a firehose: instead of RSS I just picked a few favorite sources and check them occasionally – usually once in the morning/evening. I also read The Economist's briefs (requires a sub) to catch up on stuff I missed.
Boosting and upvoting are conceptually different
Update: this has now been resolved by changes to Kbin's voting system:...
