Action against Tiktok doesn't preclude action against US companies

OLED already works very well for TVs and other big screens; MicroLED would need to push into that market and prove its value against OLED. And OLED tech will not stand still while MicroLED catches up.

MicroLED needs market niches with lots of manufacturing volume to scale up and improve or they'll never get to a position where they can challenge OLED.

Google only pays because Firefox has enough users to justify it. If enough users switch to Chrome because of broken Google-owned websites, why would they keep paying?

Perhaps LLM creators will start using ablation as the censorship method instead of a refusal

What a delightful website, the design is frozen in time. From the News section it appears they're still running - they posted an update on a router upgrade today https://www.eskimo.com/news/

I took a look at freeSWITCH's site and it looks like they got bought out. Their documentation is a total mess because the acquiring company has imported lots of wiki pages without much care for how they fit together.

Food is parceled out so a small amount of food bank fraud creates a slightly smaller parcel for everyone, in the case where food is limited. If fraud rates are small, the cost to everyone is trivial; if fraud rates are zero, the costs get piled onto a few unfortunate souls who couldn't pass the test despite actually needing help.

I think the current title is mistaken, the twitter user isn't claiming he can't use the Apple TV, he's just saying the message appears.

I encountered the same message when iOS 16 had just released and wasn't available on my iPad yet. It wasn't a blocking message, pressing "OK" was enough to make it go away, and when iPadOS 16 finally came out I was able to clear it.

It's bad UX but the Apple TV can still be used as before.

That sounds interesting, could you share the script?

I've encountered a few obvious login attempts like that, but since they come from a broad pool of IPs it's not something fail2ban can easily handle without collateral damage.

"The sanctions" in this context being Russia's refusal to supply gas to Europe. The EU has not sanctioned Russian energy because they are dependent.

The demand isn't being made to the product side; Discord and other chat clients already have a chat API which their clients authenticate and talk to, it's all already built and user-facing. They already distrust their clients. They already made everything a third party client would need.

It's a policy change, not a product change, and demanding a company adjust their bad policy is totally normal.

I understand it sucks to hear that people are mistreated, but at least you do hear about it.

The new law has legalized an existing abuse - police threatening concerned observers who are recording - so I suppose you could say it's no longer abuse. Compelling stuff!

Gazprombank is still in SWIFT

Perhaps 10 years of existing within the system led you away from the more revolutionary perspective and towards the status quo. I would be curious to see the blog post you wrote, I can't find it in your submissions.

Those are certainly causal explanations for the data, but once those phenomena are here they impact people's expectations. Change in expectations is clearly what the author is focusing on. For example, the emergence of the rust belt leaves a lot of unemployed men - the impacted parts of society won't continue to expect the same work ethic and commitment from their men 40-50 years later.

All of those countries have changed their expectations of men and women regardless of traditional values, just check the female labor force participation rates, and have had a similar swell of directionless men.

It's not trivial. But regardless, you're saying the hacker should submit data to Google and also answer a telephone call, both of which increase the risk of getting caught later. The aim should be to stop or mitigate the misuse of EDRs, not to cure the underlying problem of social engineering.

According to a video I found linked on another thread (https://youtu.be/b4wRdoWpw0w?t=119) Russia has moved around 75% of its principal combat units to the Ukraine border. The Ukraine invasion appears to be using a significant portion of their conventional military power.

Let me have a go at objectively explaining the difference: America has a lot more political clout than Russia.

Under Putin, Russia's soft power has been decimated and they are left with misinformation, violence and resource starvation as their main tools to make others comply. A government like that will face much stronger pushback than a nation like America.

America is rightly criticized for its wars and its mistreatment of countries like Palestine but it has the political clout to absorb those criticisms and slow down their effect. When the criticisms eventually mount the government is forced to make changes, but this is slowed by soft power.

Its about "a time before Mathematica" and it does talk about other products.

Its incorrect to call opening an office for Taiwan a "rash, emotional move". It's a simple ackowledgement of the way things already are (two nations who talk and negotiate with each other) and helps Taiwan and France build their relationship.

The concern is that the CCP will have a rash, emotional response (as they did with Lithuania) because they imagine they can set the terms for any Taiwan-related business.

These frequent emotional outbursts have cost the CCP so much political capital, which means countries like France will reconsider their relationship.

Its an interesting way of describing landlords, but we have now worked our way back to GP's original criticism, just stated in a different/less-tangible way: For landlords, the simple act of buying housing (a basic need) allows them to extract a profit in the time dimension, and it shouldn't work like that.

Companies providing and selling food, energy, and consumer staples are investment materials.

companies that grow or sell food.

House builders would be the analogous party to that. The parent comment is describing landlords, specifically part-time landlords who buy up family homes and turn them into rental properties. Your analogy doesn't apply to those landlords.

You don't get to exclude iPhones and iPads from being "real" consoles - you can play games (and sell them) on almost any general computing device. Steam has been doing that for years and I suspect they beat Xbox/PlayStation revenues too.

I see. It seems this is what school, nursery, postnatal care is - communities where adults help to raise all children.

In my experience there's a performance hit in filesystem-heavy work like opening and closing a lot of small files.

Still, its more than offset by the convenience of performing bash operations on Windows; remembering `du -csh ./* | sort -h` (sort directories by size) is easier than whatever Powershell would have me type.

DDG is more willing to stick a stackoverflow answer at the top, which is usually what I want. When the issue becomes more language-specific or obscure then I have to resort to !g.

Those records are mandated by The State and are very limited in scope. Nobody is idly wondering about the legality of X or Y in them, as one might in a google search, or making a culturally insensitive remark, as one might in a private message to a friend.

Be wary of the motte-and-bailey fallacy - the issue is not that The State can look at certain records in certain prosecutions, its that the records currently being requested are too broad and too potentially intimate to trust The State with.

Failing to overcome the network effect unfortunately. My (perhaps naive) hope for this copyright directive was that it would add a cost or limiting factor to the network effect, i.e. after your platform grows past a certain size you are accountable for every user and have to filter uploads at great cost.
